Ok so it's been 3 weeks and 2 days since I had my lil Seli Jelly!! She is growing soo fast and she's getting chubbier everyday!! It's crazy to watch her grow! I am getting antsy to start to lose weight and I think just to do something! I'm not use to staying home all day everyday, it's hard!! I've decided to not go back to work :( It's been a really hard decision to make, cause I love love love the people I work with and the company is great! I haven't called and let them know, but we've decided it's whats best for the baby. So since I've come to that conclusion I thought well what am I gonna do while being a stay at home mom w/ a baby?? Because when I was a stay at home mom in Cali I did work for a time, and then I was like the #1 volunteer in both Ariana and Jays classrooms...but I have a baby so I decided I would give myself a goal to learn something every month!! So for the month of Aug. what I have decided to learn is to braid hair!! 
I don't know how to french braid, and so I decided that's what I want to learn. I wanna be thee best corn roll braider out there!! LMBO!! No I juss wanna learn the basics. This way it'll gimmie something to focus on so I don't feel like I'm not doing anything productive for myself! :) I also am starting to walk at night with my baby and kids around the neighborhood tonight like maybe 8:30pm cause it's juss so hot outside. I think we'll continue this for a while til the air turns cold. I'm sure I need this, and plus my kids will really enjoy it. I can't wait to pick up the new Bob Greene Book (Oprahs Trainer) today!! 
I may not be able to start working out really hard, but I am able to watch what I eat and educate myself on my health! So I'm really excited about that. So this is what's up with **ME**!! I feel that it's so important for us women/mothers to take that time to really do something for ourselves!! Hope you all do the same!! I'll keep ya'll updated on my monthly goals!! :)

Aww I know what you mean about being home, but I just told myself, I can always get a job but these moments with the little babe I wont ever get back. That's good you're keeping yourself busy and learning something new every month. :) Hope you're doing great.. I feel you on the working out thing too.. Man, longest 6 weeks ever. I can't wait to start training again. You should start running with me. I usually try to do a 5k or a 10k every month and I was supposed to do the half marathon last October, but got pregnant LOL. Running is definitely my "out" :) let me know and take it easy wonder woman!! xoxox
Oh can't wait for that time in my life when I can stay home, and be a "mommy" LOVE it!! Also LOVE the every month thing you want to learn "idea" I've been thinking of doing that to i'm calling them "projects" right now staying at my parents I'm wanting to fix up the "welfare room" I feel like there is ALOT out there we can learn & enjoy...good luck with ALL the months to come w/ the learning I'm sure you'll accomplish them!!
Hey ladies..
Kassie-are you kidding me!! I cannot run a marathon!lmbo...I mean maybe I could, but it would take some serious training on my part! So if u have about 3yrs to train my body to get ready for that, I'm all yours!! ahahaha. Thanks for reminding me about cherishing babies special moments! :) You're right!! I'll keep u posted on running...
