A to Z Challenge
I ran across a blog today, A to Z challenge where Monday-Saturday you write about each letter of the alphabet, by the end of the month you have written 26entries and completed the alphabet. Since it is the middle of the month and I am just now finding this blog, I have decided to make my own rules. I will be starting with A, today =D
A is for ACHIEVEMENTS!
Achievement: noun; a thing done successfully, typically by effort, courage or skill.
As I think about the timeline of my past years, I have noticed there are so many achievements I have accomplished whether it be something small or something big. From learning to tie my shoe laces to learning how to drive a car.
There are even everyday simple achievements that I come across but many go unnoticed and I'm ok with that. I hope to achieve many more things as I mature and grow older. A few achievements I would like to accomplish within the next few years are:
- to achieve a healthy weight and health
- to start a savings plan for my son(possibly more children)to attend college
- to finish/complete my criminal justice degree
. . .I can't wait to see what he achieves tomorrow.

New Things are Fun!
Decided to start a blog today! I am very excited. I hope to write about our family adventures and daily happenings. With a baby around there is plenty of excitement around here to talk about!
Today we went to the park and to party city to pick up some last minute details for Anthony's first birthday party which is on Saturday!
Anthony's party is going to be Sesame Street theme.
Decorations: My older sister and I made a birthday banner and door sign the other weekend, they both turned out very cute! I am going to cut out the shape of Big Bird's feet out of poster foam and place them on the stairs going into the house. I bought streamers and going to tie balloons around a small Elmo and Cookie Monster to use as a center piece.
For games: Since Anthony is still young and can't really play any games yet, I have decided to get a cookie jar and fill with cookies and have the adults guess how many are inside. Who ever guesses the correct amount wins the cookie jar! We will also be painting 4x6 5x7 & 8x10 canvas to go on Anthony's wall in his room. I haven't quite decided what I am going to ask the adults to paint on them yet. I was thinking about either the theme, "paint what you think Anthony will grow up to be" or "inspirational words/quotes".
Clothes: Anthony is going to wear a shirt that I ironed on a cookie monster face and wrote "Birthday Monster" on the front and "Anthony 1" on the back(I had to buy a white girl tshirt for him since I couldn't find a boy tshirt without a pocket on the front, hopefully no-one will notice, LOL). My husband is wearing a shirt that says "D is for Daddy" and mine says, "M is for Mommy".
Ok, well, that's it for now!
