Organization

My whole life I have loved organization.  I just think it makes life so much less stressful.  I was voted most organized in my senior class.  I was always very organized in school and that came in very handy when I started college with a child.  When I started college my planner became my bible.  At the beginning of each semester I wrote every assignment for the whole semester down and all of their due dates.  I had each class color coded by using different colored pens for each class.  That way I could plan everything out.  Not only am I organized, I am also a planner.  Once I finished an assignment I would cross it off.  I learned that procrastination is not the way to go.  It felt so much better to get all of my assignments done right away so I could relax for the rest of the week instead of stressing about school.  Now that I am done with school I still use a planner to stay organized.  I write down all of the days Mason will be at his dads for the whole year.  I just got done filling out the calendar for the year 2015.  It makes it so much easier when people ask me if I have Mason on a future date.  I also use it to write down doctor appointments for Mason.  I just ordered a 2015 agenda planner off of http://www.maydesigns.com/  They are 30% off right now!  You can design your own and personalize it.  They have so many cute designs it makes it hard to choose.  You can choose anything from a calendar to a budget journal or an exercise journal.  Pictured below is the outside of the planner I designed.

Become a Partner in Hope

Today is February 4th, which also happens to be World Cancer Day.  In honor of World Cancer Day, the radio station I listen to everyday at work had many cancer survivors, and parents of cancer patients tell their stories.  Every time a parent or a child told their story, I was almost in tears.  In every story they all said "I never thought it would happen to me."  It is so true, no one ever thinks it is going to happen to them.  I couldn't even begin to imagine if I was told that my son has cancer.  I don't want to even think about it.  After hearing all of these stories I decided I wanted to do something to help.  So I went on to stjude.org and became a partner in hope.  I signed up to donate to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital monthly.  It comes straight out of your credit card or bank account.  You can choose the dollar amount to donate per month.  Any amount helps so much.  It is so easy to do and I hope others wi...

2015 Review

Happy New Year!!! Mason and I have made it to another year.  It seems like such an accomplishment every year.  2015 was a great year for Mason and I. We started out 2015 with Ryan and Leah's wedding.  Mason made an adorable ring bearer and he had a blast dancing the night away.  Also in January Mason had his second surgery.  He took it like a champ.  There were some positives and negatives to having been through it before but the recovery this time went a lot smoother. I had my 1 year anniversary working at TCB in February.  That means my 2 year is quickly approaching.  I am still enjoying it there.  My family tries to accuse me of converting over to a Knights fan, but I say I just like to support everyone! In May a lot of things happened.  Mason turned the big THREE! I don't know how I can be the mother of a three year old already, but I am.  He has grown up so much and he won't slow down. I applied for a mortgage loan and a...

GoodNites Tru-Fit Real Underwear Review

Ever since Mason has been potty trained and wearing big boy pants it has been a struggle at night time to get him to wear a diaper.  He cannot yet make it through the night without wetting the bed.  I went through a phase where I would have to duck tape Mason's diaper on in order for him not to rip it off in the middle of the night.  I had recently used up all of his diapers so I went to the store to check out what my options were.  I found the perfect solution to my problem!  I found GoodNites Tru-Fit Underwear.  They are real underwear that you can insert an absorbent pad in.  I was skeptical about how well they would actually work because Mason's diaper is usually full in the morning but I was pleasantly surprised!  I have not had one leak on me yet. I had never heard of GoodNites underwear before but I am so glad that I found them! No more diapers for Mason! Below I have posted a link to purchase GoodNites Underwear.  I have not yet shopp...
