I feel like every time I think about Blogging, millions of other things somehow manage to make their way in front and distract me from writing, but I wanted to do a little update.
First off, it's hard to believe, but JMWR (our son), will be ONE next month! I am in awe over this kid. He has brought us so much joy and happiness, and we've truly enjoyed every second or every day with him. Currently, he has six teeth, still loves Disney music but really loves Mickey Mouse. He gets a kick out of all the Baby Einstein movies, and enjoys fruits, chicken, raviolis, chicken, eggs, but his all time favorite is PANCAKES! He can walk, but chooses to crawl in between because his legs get too tired. That's what happens when you're chunky, and if it was socially acceptable for adults to do that, you know we would!
Right now, we are in the works of planning his birthday party and trying to get all of the stuff together we will need to complete his birthday party. While we aren't sure if we are doing a big party or small, intimate party, we are eager to celebrate. I have so many ideas, but don't want to spend a crazy amount of money if we are just doing something small. I'll update more on the party details once we figure it out.
Last time we caught up, I was staying home, but I decided that after four months, it was time to go back to work. I worked for GEICO for a while but was not happy there, and ended up returning to my old job. I LOVE it and love that JMWR gets to go to school to learn and play. While the occasional sicknesses from the other kiddos makes me regret school all together, the interaction and scheduled learning and activities, such as his finger paintings and crafts that he brings home and is so proud of, make me realize that it is a good thing and that he will benefit greatly from this early adventure in school.
Although, that's not all I've got going on, in all craziness, I am not only a Licensed Insurance Agent, I am also a Licensed Real Estate Agent in the state of Texas. I do not plan on using my Insurance license however, I am hoping that my Real Estate business grows more and more. It definitely takes work and determination to make it grow, but I am determined! In addition to my fulltime job and my Real Estate career, I also re-opened my photography business, under MeganRRichards Photography, check me out on Facebook. I have been taking classes and working hard to learn ways to keep my clients happy and provide the best service possible. I love being busy and being a mom and wife with three jobs is exhausting but so worth it. I look forward to the future and what possibilities, and doors, are available to me having each of these routes to take.
Oh, I still plan like crazy! While my planning habits are completely different, planning is the only way I stay organized with all the things going on in life. I still use the Erin Condren Life Planner, but now it is used for bill tracking and reminders of the little things that our little guy does. I also track anything I feel might help me long term, aka saving money. I plan on doing a "Plan with Me," to show others all of the ways you can plan, if you don't have the money to pay for a million stickers. While we are on the topic of planning, I think now is a great time to mention, we are officially going to Disney World! I am so darn excited, I could scream like a little girl on Christmas! I have dreamed about this day since I was a tiny little thing, and now I get to go and experience Disney magic with my own child, and my amazing husband (more on Disney in another post).
Overall, life has been FANTASTIC in every way possible. I cannot wait to share all of the fun Disney-related stuff that will make your trip amazing, and I look forward to sharing our future adventures with you.
As always, thank you for reading!
