Wow. It has been some time since I actually put pen to paper on this blog. There has been a lot going on lately, including a full time freelance career. Yep, you heard right - I am now freelancing full time and it is a blast. Sure there is some hard work and I am planning for the times when work is thin, but the freedom is incredible.

I wanted to invite you all over to check out my new site for my freelance business; Prolific Studios. My ultimate vision for Prolific Studios is a collaboration of creative individuals, making up a one-stop-shop for all of your creative needs. At some point there will be people handling web design, SEO, branding, etc. Just about everything a business could possibly need.

I am looking forward to hosting some events under the Prolific Studios name, such as some ministry work and even taking part in this year's Blog Action Day, which deals with the theme of WATER.

Anyway, just wanted to throw a quick post out there to let everyone know that I was still alive. There will be some changes coming to the blog, but they will have to come when they can. For the mean time, go check out Prolific Studios and let me know what you think.

What a fun week we have had around here! :) Getting completely settled in with my mom moving in, going to the Chiro three times a week, and me getting a job!

I know I missed two days, but I am back trying to get my own blog set up still. I will work on that this weekend! So I have been spending more time with my Natural Mom friends.

Natural Moms as opposed to Unnatural Moms ... eh? Kind of ... Natural Moms meaning moms that share similar views as far as parenting and family go! As well as their own lifestyle!

I am SOLID in my views and why I have the view that I have about many things that most would deem controversial. Breastfeeding, attachment parenting, baby wearing, co-sleeping, delayed eating, circumcision, schooling, and of course VACCINES :). You couldn't change my opinion if you needed to. I don't mean that boastfully, I just believe what I believe. So the natural moms have the same views, most of the same views, obviously not everyone believes the SAME EXACT thing but for the most part. It is sooooo great to be around people that have the same views as we do!

Last night we went over to a friends house (our Chiropractor - who's wife is the head of the natural moms group) it was such a good time. Just chatting about parenting and life and not feeling awkward or having to guard what I say for fear of being attacked for my co-sleeping ways, being able to breastfeed my baby and not search for a blanket because I KNEW she wouldn't be offended. It was wonderful. I look forward to getting to know them more as well as more of the other mama's in the group!

My picture today is a VERY sweet moment shared between Isabella and Ian Matthew last night, Isabella has wanted to feed him since he was BORN! Well,with breastfeeding she can't really do that, so last night he was enjoying some Avocado and she fed it to him. SOOOO SWEET!

my thought for the day: how solid are you in your views! if someone challenged them do you think you could be swayed to another side?

SUPERMOM OUT!

Geez guys.
I am officially not stick to it :( I forgot to blog again yesterday. Sorry

Yesterday was my first day at the new job. :) It went well, I dreaded it all day yesterday simply because I was stressed about leaving Sal with the kids and dinner and all the other stuff that comes in the evening! So, I am glad that it went well and Sal and the kids were ok when I got hom. That was important to me. Our youngest Ian Matthew won't take a bottle so that was my biggest concern, that he would be hungry and I would be at work, and Sal would be here with a SCREAMING baby. So glad that was not the case.

I got called into work this morning at 9:45 you will all be happy to know I got the kids and myself dressed and to the church to work by 10:05 :) WHAT That is AWESOME! I AM AWESOME!!

In other news, we are going to the Chiropractor 3 times a week, and yesterday we had a MAJOR breakthrough at the Chiro, he adjusted me REALLY WELL! I slept better than I have slept in over a year, so today has been an AWESOME day!!

With all of that, I realized today, that my kids are WONDERFUL!! Took them to lunch and they did FANTASTIC! There are often times that I think OMGOSH THESE KIDS, and today was not one of those days!

SUPERMOM OUT!!

I forgot to blog yesterday. I didn't tell you guys but I got a job at my church! Working in the child care for small groups and such. SO, yesterday I was at the meeting for that.

So onto today!
I am trying to work on a budget for our family, having a harder time than I thought. It is hard to work the numbers and stick to them. :) Especially when you have small children, who need cute little things. So, I need some serious tips on how to stay on your budget. How do you stick to it? Avoid impluse buying for the kids? You know that kind of stuff.

Nothing too exciting around here today, I didn't even get any mail :( I am expecting a few diapers in the mail, and I am always bummed when the kids and I take our daily walk to the mailbox only to NOT find my diapers in the package box!!!

Well, my thought for the day, don't let your children play with scissors while you are changing a diaper ...

SUPERMOM OUT!

What a blast it was, it is always a good time. I always get some good ideas there for crafts and things of that sort!

A friend of mine recently started a sling making business :) and she helped me convince Sal that a Ring Sling is essential to my baby wearing wardrobe :)
I also found some super cute shopping cart covers, I had them with the other two, but those are long gone and I am going to try my hand at making one tonight!

Here is the kicker though, this lady dressed like a FOOL was walking up to people that had their children in strollers or carrying them, whatever it was and saying, "you are too big for that you should be walking".
PHHHH She needs to shut her mouth. When she said that about Isabella (who was riding in our SUPER COOL Choo Choo wagon) I said "Excuse me" and she looked at me and continued to keep walking. She MUST have felt the WRATH of JESSICA! Because I was SURELY going to let her have a piece of my mind. CRAZY WOMAN, SHE is the reason my child wasn't walking, crazy people that want to steal children in a CROWDED busy place like that!

BAH! CLAP! SQUIRT!!

SUPERMOM OUT!

Good evening ladies and gents! I am going to keep it short and sweet for tonight, its late and we have been moving my mom in all day!
I am proud to annouce that I have my own blog site :) So I will no longer be hijacking Sal's site :) I will still post here from time to time, but it won't be where I blog daily!

I will post my site info when I have it all up and running and a fun and frilly background!! I hope to see you around there :)

I LOVE the weekends, I am a "single" parent Monday - Friday from wake up until Dinner time. So I welcome the help on the weekends.

Today has been a BEAUTIFUL day. I got the kids up, had breakfast and then we walked the complex, then they ran around with the dog in the field out behind our place! It was so energizing to see them playing and hear them laughing and having such a good time. There is nothing more energizing to me than children laughing and playing, I LOVE the sound!! It is such a wonderful thing. It helps put child like faith into perspective a little more. Children love without abandon and have faith that they can indeed move mountains, when do we loose that? I think as parents we should try to foster and encourage them with that. Because if we as adults had child like faith, MAN the world would surely be a better place.

This weekend we have big stuff going on here. My mom is moving in with us. :) So I am hurriedly organizing and de-cluttering to make room for her stuff.
In other news, I have finally talked Salvador into getting me a MacBook :) INCREDIBLY excited about that. So that is in the works as well. I think after my 30day challenge I will have Sal help me with a blog of my own.
I think next week I am going to add to my challenge by using a photo each day :) I have used a few these past couple posts, but I will try!

I leave you all with this : Try this weekend to look at the world through the eye's of a child, and love each other with no expectations! See you all tomorrow! WITH A PHOTO!!!

SUPERMOM OUT!

I know it isn't Christmas (as my photo depicts) BUT, those three babies are the majority of my post :) so SHUT IT!

After my rant yesterday I figured I could follow up with all the things in life that I am thankful for, well, not all, because let's be honest that would take awhile and some of them are given if you know me like (toilet paper, air conditioning) !

Firstly I am thankful that my God is a GREAT BIG GOD! That loves me, that adores me, that cherishes me!
I am thankful that I have such a great relationship with my Mom. That I can tell her exactly what is on my mind and if we get into an argument we can move past it with ease and just respect our differences.
For my HUSBAND Salvador. Who is such a wonderful provider for me and the kids. He tries to help me whenever and however he can. I guarantee you, if he could feed the baby he would take night feedings so I could get a good nights sleep. I know it pains him that he can't. He is my best friend.
For my Isabella, she is so full of life, and my goodness she is beautiful and such a sweet girl! She is a spirited child and I try to remember this on a daily basis. God made her so unique.
For my Isaia, oh Isaia, a handsome blue eyed blonde haired mama's boy. He is a SWEET HEART!!! He always makes me smile, often when he is in trouble. He is such a lover and hugger, loves to cuddle especially when he sees mommy needs it!
For my baby boy, Ian Matthew, he is the kind of baby you hope for with your first pregnancy. Sweet, and laid back. He is spoiled and loves to be held. Another cuddly baby that loves his mommy.

I am thankful for the opportunity to stay at home with them to see them grow and change. To watch them learn from their environment and to be able to take part in that is so fulfilling to me.

Happy Thursday!

SUPERMOM OUT!

WHEW! What a day it has been today! Got up at 8:11am, got dressed, got Isaia dressed, woke up Ian Matthew got him dressed, fed the boys, took the dog out, then dressed Isabella in her sleep (she can't be bothered with trivial things like getting dressed). Then we were OFF, to our playdate!
We had such a great time, I always do with the natural moms group! Living a natural lifestyle (breastfeeding, cloth diapering, organic, and whole food eathing, sewing, attachment pareting) is not something you can do without support! These ladies are AMAZING! So helpful with questions and so encouraging! Hanging out with them always builds me back up and fills me :)

On our way home I had to stop at publix to get the rest of the supplies needed for my babymooning mamas chicken noodle soup. That was nothing short of a disaster! Going anywhere alone with 3 kids at the ages we have is DIFFICULT! So I park in the "new & expecting moms only " parking spot because GOSH DARNIT I am a new mom Ian Matthew is 7 months old ... (when do you feel it is no longer appropriate to park there?) Go in and of course as we are walking in people are STARING AT ME! I said to a friend on the phone, "you know what I am SICK of people staring at me like I am a DARN CIRCUS FREAK! I am a young mom of 3. And that does NOT give you permission to ask any questions about my "sex life" (was that on purpose) and (are you going to have more)." GRR Nothing is more irritating. Thankfully the kdis behaved ;)

Then home for lunch and a nap :) Speaking of lunch, anyone have any GREAT ideas for healthy whole food lunches ???

SUPERMOM OUT!
