I'm taking inspired action and have created a new blog where I will be writing about the Law of Attraction, self appreciation, awareness, appreciation of contrast, the vibrational nature of ourselves and the Universe, co-creation, etc. Ideally my vision is to turn this space into a sort of column where I address specific questions or topics that readers suggest, or just topics that I find interesting, but I think it would be fun to make it a co-creative interactive place .  If there is something you'd like to know, or want to talk about- let me know!   

Please add/read along as the journey unfolds if you feel inspired to do so!

"Jon is about this close to activating the parental controls on our DirecTV so that I can no longer watch anything on Discovery Health Channel or TLC. It started a few months ago when I accidentally stumbled upon a show about a new fad in childbirth called Freebirthing where women have their babies at home without the aid of a nurse or midwife or any trained professional. And at one point there was this three-year-old kid going WHY IS MOMMY SCREAMING LIKE THAT?! And the woman is clawing at this head coming out from between her legs, and she's all GET IT OUT! GET IT OUT! Except, there is no one there who knows how to get it out, and her husband is just standing there shrugging like DUDE, THIS WAS YOUR IDEA!"


( Freaking Hilarious )

I just did this, and my jaw is still on the floor from the shock of what I discovered.


Take several deep belly breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth.
On the outbreath make an audible "AHHHH" sound
Do this until your mind is calm and quiet.
Shift your awareness from behind your eyes slowly down your face and neck and into your heart.
For THREE- FOUR minutes STRAIGHT, continually finish this phrase:
"If I wasn't afraid, I would..."

AMAZING what you will find out about yourself and what you really want!

So I'm thinking it's about damn time we have a BBQ/PICNIC at Freedom Park.  Bring your babies and dogs, husbands, boyfriend/girlfriends, ferrets, what the hell ever and come HAVE SOME FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whatcha think?

I'm thinking Sat/Sun.

Input????

It's been a long while since I have posted pics, so here are a few.  We went to discovery place today, so there are some pics from that in here, but also from the past few weeks.

Aidan is now nearly 16 months old and is learning new words everyday and will show you his belly if you ask :)

I'm sure there have been minor mommy infractions made on my part in the past almost 16 months, but today was the first real strike against my Mommy card.

I dropped Aidan ON HIS FACE...

We were playing airplane (he was laying on my shins, not the toss in the air kind) and I would flip him up and he was laughing hysterically and then on the last flip up he went past vertical, Flipped over and BAM- on his FACE.

He looked up and his little face was all BLOODY! 

IT WAS BLOODY!!!!!!!

The gums above his two front teeth were bleeding (I think...it might have been the inside of his lip- I couldn't tell very well since it was all bloody) and he was FREAKING OUT (as was I- Jackie was handling things quite nicely).  He's ok now, but when your baby looks up at you covered in blood because you DIDN'T CATCH HIM LIKE YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO, you basically feel like the WORST person in the world.

Mommy is sorry Aidan...SOOOO SORRY- Please don't remember this and be traumatized forever (good point on this, James).

Happy Birthday Aidan.

I love you.

Is all I had to wait at this time last year to meet my little boy.

Aidan turns ONE on THURSDAY!  WHAT!@???  He's walking and saying mama and dada, and other funny little things like, "that".  Hahaha...he will point to something and say "That?" when he wants to know what "that" is.  It's probably the cutest thing any baby has ever done EVER in the history of babies. 

For real though.

Jackie and I are bringing cupcakes for his class :)
Should be AWESOME!!!

Hopefully this week will make up for how shitty next week starts out for him.

He's having a bilateral myringotomy and possibly an adenoidectomy (For those of you who haven't been to a million pediatrician appointments- he's having tubes put in his ears and might have his adenoids taken out depending on what the doc sees when he gets in there)

My mom will be here all week though so that should make him feel better.  That boy sure LOVES his Nan.

I feel so cut off from all of you now.  I miss hanging out!  COME OVER!
