I have many family members giving me tips but none has worked at this point. My son is 20 months old. He is showing signs of moving to the next step. He will let me know when he has a dirty diaper. His diaper is dry when waking up. From everything that I have read those are good starting points. I also have heard boys are a little bit more on the slower on when it comes to P.T. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#990000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#990000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I recently have been accepted to school and I start in Sept.

They are as follows:</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">1. Self-acceptance and personal Growth</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">2.Good Communication</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">3.

Shared Dreams and/or interests</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">7. Appreciation to each other.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">SELF-ACCEPTANCE AND PERSONAL GROWTH</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> Many relationships fail because the people don't love themselves. You have to love yourself before you can love anyone else. There are things you have to accept as YOU and love yourself before you can do the same with your partner.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> GOOD COMMUNICATION</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> You have to be able to discuss anything with your partner. You have to be will to listen to your partner. I have heard people say you talk to much. Well its a great thing to talk. Its a basic foundation in your relationship.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">ABILITY TO FACE CONFLICT EFFECTIVELY </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> Tackle crises together as one. Life is life things will happen unexpectedly and you both have to decide what is best for the both of you.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> Don't expect something out of your relationship that is not going to happen. Love is not all fairy tales and butterflies. Have realistic expectations for your mate, relationship and yourself. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">COMMITMENT</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> Couples who are committed to working together on their changing and evolving relationship have the best chance of maintaining their love and their growth. Every relationship will encounter some difficult times. But the commitment to yourself, to your partner and to your relationship will get you through.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">SHARED DREAMS AND /OR SHARED INTERESTS</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> The more interest you take in your partner or spouse the more you will get out of your relationship. You will enjoy your time together and have more enjoyable conversations. You dreams are the same you both will be together but want different things and that is ok.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">APPRECIATION OF EACH OTHER</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> In relationships we hit a comfort zone where some people think well I married her or him and I don't have to impress or really try anymore. Well thats a wrong way of thinking. Once couples get into that way of thinking you neglect him or her.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> Being appreciating seems an easy thing to do. Most couples you talk to will say that they feel as though they are taken for granted. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> Think about it what have you done to make your spouse feel appreciated lately? Make an effort to make them feel appreciated. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372526059165843855.post-26629434557458634622010-06-13T10:31:00.000-07:002010-06-13T10:37:36.721-07:00Pepsi<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">So I know everyone who has watched TV at some point keep hearing or seeing commericals about the Refresh of Pepsi.

My husband had left work earlier than expected to. Which is great because I knew he would be working the next 4 days straight 16 hour shifts. No fun. Dawson and I won't get to see much of him.</span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">However the past few days we just family days. Derek and I yesterday weeded our garden it soo needed it bad. We planted our tomato plants into the Topsy Turvey which this year is the first to do so. So we will see how they turn out. Let me mention by the way that I didn't know they were so sensitive when transplanting them from one location to another. I thought we had killed our tomato plants when we were finally done but they perked up after 6 hours. I usually make homemade salsa and speghetti sauce every year. Huge savings!!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">So we moved different plants around to make sure we had enough room for everything to grow. We did however had to pull up 8 tomato plants that had been growing from last years plants that never came up. That was a bummer.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"> We played the Wii! Its so funny we can play for hours and then the next day we have Wiiitis is what we call it. We feel like we did a huge workout the night before because we really get into it. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Then today me wanting to up date my blog about relationship stuff I ended up getting side tracked by reading all the amazing blogs I follow. I entered so many GiveAways! I love it. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Everyone have a great day!!</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"> </span></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372526059165843855.post-44512539560318491322010-06-05T19:51:00.001-07:002010-06-05T20:11:03.762-07:00The Weekend<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I hope that everyone is enjoying their weekend!

Lol </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> But back to what I was saying we sitting here on the couch cuddled up spending our much needed time together because next week due to his busy schedule I won't get to see him much. But I will spend a lot of time with my lil man. Our lil man will get extra spoiled next week. He won't mind at all. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Everyone enjoy your weekend!

Well my wonderful husband and I have a fire pit outside and decided that we could spend a few hours out by the fire. He has been wanting to do this for at least a week. He knows that when we sit outside by the fire we can talk for hours and relax.</span></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">Well he was right! lol It was an hot earlier that day and was wondering if it was going to cool off a bit for us to really enjoy the fire. Then night time fell and it was just perfect to have one.</span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">I tucked Dawson in bed and Derek went out started the fire we grabbed a glass of wine and just relaxed. Where we live its very quite so it was us, the fire and nature. Very peaceful and much needed couple time.

It's a vital part in making a marriage successful. Wanting to have honesty and being honest does not mean you have to share every thought that you think, or every fear or even every dream you have. Knowing what couples want to share with one another is a skill that couples learn to use to have a good marriage.</span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;color:#663366;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> Having honesty in your marriage , you and your spouse are aware of each other's likes and dislikes.

Life is just crazy.</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#993399;">Here is something I have started every year to keep me centered. I plant a garden every year. My main reason is I am starting to eat healthy. I love to go out every morning and just tend to my garden. I usually plant green peppers, Baby watermelon, Squash usually its (Butternut) my favorite. I plant strawberries, tomato (I make homemade sauce) Fresh herbs. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#993399;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#993399;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#993399;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#993399;"> My second reason for planting a garden is you save money. I love organic fruits and veggies and hate paying expensive prices at the stores so plant your garden. If I want something I haven't planted then I go and buy at my local Farmers Market. Support your local Farmers!!</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372526059165843855.post-1804076481233781292010-04-10T14:18:00.000-07:002010-04-10T14:32:57.217-07:00Food For Thought<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I am addicted to this show that Jamie Oliver is doing. He has a show called Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution and what its about is Jamie trying to put healthy food in our children's school. Our children's generation is suppose to have a shorter life span due to all of the health issues they face. Mainly unhealthy eating in America today. Of course its been going on for a long time but now there are fast food places with in 2 miles of your house. Crazy as it sounds but its so true.</span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">But Jamie Oliver is trying to make a change. Visit http://abc.go.com follow the links for his show and take action. Parents need to sign his petition to improve our children's school food. Its free and it takes only 10 mins of your time to sign it. It will help change the future for our children. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Everyone have a great weekend!!</span></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372526059165843855.post-35096735802825037192010-01-21T15:20:00.000-08:002010-01-21T15:35:21.527-08:00Volunteer It Helps<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">This year I decided to a lot of things that I wouldn't normally do. For starters I want to really help others and actually make a difference. So I started to <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">volunteer. I just did some research in my town that I live in and went to a few places to find out information. I went to my library asked if they needed help. I now read on Tues, Weds, Sat afternoon to children for story time. I meet moms, my son meets new friends and better yet its free! I also help with my church on care packages. Sending supplies to the troops. They always need supplies mainly phone cards to call their families back home. They need music, books to read. This helps their time fly by when they are away from their families. The latest project has been sending care packages to Haiti. Medical supplies, food and Clean water. Cotton balls, gauze, Plastic gloves. My heart goes out to all the families in Haiti. If you can help then help its for a good cause. </span></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;color:#993399;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> The last way to Volunteer is The Red Cross. They always need an extra set of hands. I hope people have huge hearts to help others like I have and it does make a difference when you see it the other persons eyes!</span></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372526059165843855.post-46721649465364161632010-01-16T19:28:00.000-08:002010-01-16T20:01:58.632-08:00Enjoying the Weekend<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bMLiB2-KkXU/S1KIdZRI0wI/AAAAAAAAABQ/J3HGEee8J1s/s1600-h/roses.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bMLiB2-KkXU/S1KIdZRI0wI/AAAAAAAAABQ/J3HGEee8J1s/s320/roses.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427550539515220738" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div><br /></div><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;color:#993399;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Today is the start of the weekend.

I worked outside the home and didn't realize the impact of my son and not being home with him. My marriage was rough, I wasn't in tune with my home life at all. I always had my mind outside the home. I now make family time more important. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'times new roman';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"> Third I am making a new Me. Doing things this new year that I wouldn't have never done before. Getting out of my comfort zone. I am going to try to help more with my community, would like to do a Breast Cancer Awareness walk, Help with the March of Dimes Convention. Just give back more of me this year. Most importantly a better way to live my live through Christ! </span></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-372526059165843855.post-78024818994070106182009-12-29T09:42:00.000-08:002009-12-29T09:50:55.301-08:00Another day in my world<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;color:#330033;"><b>Hello to all!

I put together a small birthday party for him. I made cupcakes for his cake, we ate pizza, had ice cream. He unwrapped his presents but didnt care to much for the cake part. He just stuck his index fingers into the cake and looked at his hands. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />A couple days later it was christmas! This is Dawson's 2nd christmas and he unwrapped all his presents. Instead of playing with the toys he had recieved he played with the tissue paper and boxes that they came in. He had recieved alot of toys and clothes.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
