Disaster at the Mall!!!

So yesterday we were at the Mall doing out yearly outing for my Moms Bday! We were just shopping as usual and I decide to go try some stuff on. Anyway to make a long story short I wacked my head on the dressing room door and blood was gushing everywhere. It was so bad the manager asked if she needed to call 911 lol.... So now I have a huge gash on my head, I look ridiculous and I feel like an idiot. What a eventful night... ha ha

Happy Birthday to my MOM!!!

I just wanted to say a few things about my amazing Mom! Here are a few reasons why she is so special! She is very accepting and forgiving! I know that there isn't anything I could do that would make her not be right there in my corner. She also makes everyone feel special she is always bringing out the positive in people! I know I would not be the same person with out her! I hope I can be as great of a Mother as she was for me!! Love you Mom!

So I was asked for 3 admirable characteristics that describe Dyson. I thought wow I havent thought about that one, he is only 3 years old. The first things that came to mind were independent, caring/sensitive and athletic. The more I started thinking about it the longer the list got. He is outgoing, energetic, a go getter........ I LOVE this boy he is definitely the light of my life. Being a parent is tough, especially being a single parent but seeing your child progress and grow is the most amazing, wonderful thing in the world.

Dyson also went to the doctor for his 3 year old check up the other day and just as we thought super tall and skinny! He is 99%tile for height and 50%tile for weight. He grew 6 inches and gained 6 lbs this last year! Wow that is a lot! If he keeps going as he is he is predicted to be 6'2"!

I am so thankful for the truly Amazing people in my life! I am thankful for the kindness people share with all those around them, the love someone can have for a stranger. I am so thankful for those in my life that make me want to be a better person! Life is short and we definitely need to make the best of it and spend our time with those that bring out the best! I am lucky enough to have a few of those people in my life!!

Christmas Eve is tomorrow and can I just say I am brimming with excitement!!! Dyson's little face glowing with joy will be the best Christmas gift I could ever get!!! Its just so much fun to see the ones you love so happy! This truly is the best time of year!

Being Sick completely sucks! My main symptom is a fever which makes me feel like a sixty year old woman with hot flashes ha ha. It definitely makes me feel so much better when the people who care about you show concern and even just when they ask.... how are you feeling or what can I do to help. I definitely have some great people in my life!!

Alarm Clocks

They are going to be the death of me...... I have never and will never sleep through an alarm. But my problem is I fall asleep in a matter of seconds. So every morning I have to set three alarms in order to get me up and sometimes that doesn't even work. Its an even bigger problem in the winter because it is so cold and that makes me dread getting out of bed and then I lay down for 2 seconds and I am out....

In a way my sleeping in is a good thing, the obvious I get more sleep but on the other hand I end up looking like a lion at work ha ha....

Oh the joys....... I guess my best solution would just be to go to bed earlier! Hmmm with my busy life I don't know if that is possible ha ha

Im ready!! I ready for a new beginning.... I feel that I have learned so much over the past year! I have figured out who I am and what I want! I have really figured out what is most important in life! I am happy with my life and I am happy with what I have. I still feel that a peice is missing that I can't wait to fill but I am truely happy. Life is good!

Dating....

Well it is exhausting, time consuming, heart wrenching, exciting, amazing, enthralling and the list goes on...........

I love the Christmas season! Christmas Music, Lights, evergreen trees, mistletoe, presents, cookies and hustle and bustle, it all Just makes me smile!!

"Attitude" is Everything

Dyson with attitude! He is such a sweet boy but he definitely knows what he wants and how he wants it! He is very independent which is hard for me because I swear we are always in a hurry and I feel like I don't have time to wait. But if I even try to help him he has a freak out and it takes longer than if I let him do it his self. So I am learning patients. Dyson and his attitude could drive me crazy sometimes but then I step back and remember he is a mini me and I just have to smile!

I love this boy!!!

So tired! I definitely have sleep deprivation! Being a Single Mom, working 40 hrs a week and Dating is exhausting!!! and very fun all at the same time. But sleep is the first thing to go when I don't have time.... Hopefully this will not be my life forever but for now I am enjoying it!!:)

Tonight is the Christmas ball and We are going all out formal!! I love dressing up this is so exciting!!

My little Man has now decide to have a little separation anxiety or something.... For the past I'd say 2 weeks every time I drop him off in the morning He has a little freak out.

Here is how it goes " I Love you Mommy" "Hold Me" " Give me a kiss on the lips" " I Need a Hug" and he stalls and stalls.

I say" babe have fun today, I love and ill be back to get you in a little while"

He says "No Mom No"

" Dys Mom has to go to work I love you"

Then the real fun starts... who ever is watching him has to hold him as he is screaming and kicking and crying " No Mom No"

Wow it breaks my heart I wanna cry every day and the only way I can get out of there is to turn around plug my ears and run, otherwise I would never make it to work.

Ok so now here is the funny part... several times he has done this in the morning I go to pick him up and he doesn't want to go home. I say "Dys its time to go"

He says" Not yet Mom" and gets a little angery when I finally make him leave.

Oh the joys of being a Mom! Its the best most rewarding thing in thing in the world!!! I love it!!

I am so thankful for my beautiful life and all the blessings I am given! I am thankful for people that put in effort and try to become better! That is what this life is all about!

Santa BABY!!

I took Dyson to see Santa and I must say it was the cutest sweetest thing ever! He was so excited and he told Santa he was a good boy and you guessed it.... He said he wanted 3 Buzz LightYears. Now I am just thinking wow I really would be ridiculous if I got him 3 Buzz LightYears..... hmmmm what to do? I am contemplating

The weekend is finally here and can I say I am already so enjoying it! This weekend is much needed after a lonnnnnng work week!

Can I just say the Festival of Tees is one of my favorite things to do around Christmas time. We went last night and it was so fun!! My goal one of these days is to create an amazing tree to donate and also be able to purchase one! One Day, maybe in the distant future I will reach that goal!! If you have never been you must go it is such a fun event and for such a good cause.

"Buzz Lightyear"

Dyson- " Im Buzz Lightyear and I have buttons" " I can fly like Buzz Light Year"

Dyson absolutely loves Buzz Light Year he takes him anywhere and everywhere. I ask Dyson what he wants for Christmas and he says " I want 3 Buzz Light Years for Christmas"

I don't know about this having 3 of the same toy but Dyson is determined so I may have to break down and get him 3..... Is that crazy? or just Loving?

I love my Super Hero Boy!

I am thankful! I am thankful to have the sweetest most beautiful little boy! I am thankful for the gospel and being able to have the spirit guide me! I am thankful for Sundays, for the reminders of whats important as well as the rest! I am thankful for my family for all the support and love they give to me and Dys! I am thankful for having all the necessities we need. I am thankful for my job. I am thankful for everyone that helps, and takes such good care of Dyson! I am thankful for good friends and all the fun adventures we have. I am thankful for my health and I am thankful for the trials and opportunities I have to learn and grow from. Life is short and I am thankful for the little things that brighten my day!

I am so bugged!!! Really I hate flaky people I am so over it!!! Its just not worth it to me. I know I am venting but I am very mad... sorry:(

So today is supposed to be the biggest storm we have had in years and I am getting really nervous about it!!!! I have to go to SLC to pick Dyson up and also to do a friends hair so I think for tonight we are going to take cover and bunk up in good old SLC... I hope we survive this storm!

So this weekend was very eventful... Paint party , dates, singles ward, movie night and lots of fun! As fun as my singles weekends are I miss my baby boy so so much and I just can't wait till Monday!! Everyone dreads Mondays but for me after a long fun weekend I so look forward to it:)

Today is a good day! I actually slept in for once weird i know! I havent done that in years!!:)

The best Day of the Year!!!

I am so excited for black friday I cant even explain!!! It really is my favorite day of the year hands down!!! I love it:) I absolutely love shopping and I absolutely love buying things for the people I love! And the hustle and bustle is such a rush! So much fun everyone should experience this!!! I love it so much I can't stop smiling!!!

I am thankful! I am so thankful for all the blessings I have in my life. I have always been someone who is looking to the future and not living in the present. Over the past couple years and especially recently I have just been worrying about the now! It is so great to enjoy the small things and live in the moment! :)

Eating right will do your body good! I have been eating really really good for about a month now and I feel better, look better and have more energy!!! I never thought I made that much of a difference but it so does!!

Today I went to spin class it kicked my trash....I really like it, it is such a good workout! I would recommend it to everyone!

Primary??? What??

Dyson went to primary for the first time today!!! They just go for the first little bit to get used to it until January. Oh my I cant believe it He has grown so fast!! It kinda makes me sad my little guy is getting so old. He has such a sweet spirit and absolutely loves going to church:)

Christmas is in the air

I am so excited for CHRISTMAS and listening to Christmas music makes my day!! We are going to put up our decorations this weekend we are so excited!!

I LOVE my favorite boy Dyson!!!

He is such a sweet boy!

Christmas is just around the corner

The Holidays are in the air!! It was absolutely bone chilling cold today and it makes me want to cuddle up and watch christmas movies!! We were out and about and Christmas music was playing in all the stores and all the Christmas decorations and candy are out. I love Christmas and this Just makes me smile!!! I am so excited for all the holiday events!!!

Since today is fast and testimony day I am going to share my testimony. I just want everyone to know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the true church!! I know this with all my heart and soul.

I know we all go through great trials and at moments we think why me or what did I do to be punished so much... But for me I know that that is not the way to look at it. Our heavenly Father loves us and knows what is best. Every experience good or bad is what shapes who we are, every experience can make us stronger!! If you hold strong to the gospel you will be blessed and every heart ache and trial you are given is going to make you so much stronger!

One thing I have been thinking about is how many temptations and evil there are all around us.... When I was younger I didnt understand a lot of the rules the church had in place and I thought they were silly... I can now testify to you that that is not the case at all. Because I follow those rules I am blessed immensely!! I cant tell you how many times I have had circumstances, where I had no clue what I was going to do and yet things always work out. The lord, our savior loves us and blesses us.

I dont know what I would do with out the gospel and I am so thankful to have it in my life.

hello

So I thought that has been going through my mind is that single life, well its not all that great and guys are very shady and there has been much drama because of it... so my advise would be avoid it like the plague and if you can't enjoy it and party like a rockstar!!!

WOW

So last night I went to traffic school and guess what I learned!!! This is shocking.... SO I know texting and driving is very dangerous and should not be done! And yes everyone does it and I too am guilty of doing it every now and again. But listen to this! If a cop sees you texting he can pull you over just for that and you will get arrested and a FELONY will go on your record! WOW that is crazy but yes i am thankful because it will keep us all safe!

***Dyson**

Dyson My favorite person in this world!! He is getting so so big I cant believe it!! Right now he is obsessed with Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer so last night we watched it 3 times! Oh ya and he absolutely loves hot dogs and corn-dogs which he always has. But get this my tiny little Dyson will eat 5 hot dogs and 3 corn-dogs all in one night!! CRAZY I know!!! He is such a big boy he wakes up in the night to go to the bathroom! I am very impressed!! He is such a sweet heart and I love him more than anything in the world!!

8 Week Happy Holiday Challenge!! Here I come!

So at work we are doing the 8 Week Happy holiday Challenge and one of the things you have to do daily is write in a Journal or Blog. I am taking this challenge very seriously there fore you will be hearing from me daily! So this means I am going to get all caught up on my blogging!!! Woohoo this is going to be great!
