weight a minute...

Yes, I said weight - & I meant weight.
I am currently about to under go adding an exercise routine into my life.
I am not as small as I once was.
Two kids & two c-sections later & my body just isn't what it was.
What scares, nay horrifies me the most, is loosing my boobs.
I love my breasts.
I don't want to be skinny - just healthy.
I wanna be a 50's pin-up all round n' curvy!
A sexy & powerful woman!
I may even book one of those pin-up shoots when it is all said & done.
I wanna feel sexy & look sexy!

I plan on having a 'mommy make-over'
once I reach my goals & get back to work.
Being a SAHM (stay at home mum)
doesn't allow for much income earning power.
Anyway, I used to do yoga - daily - before the weeins came along.
I am incorporating a Jillian Michaels - Yoge Meldown into my life!
D-day is monday.
The beginning of march break here in Canada.
Spring break to everyone else - I think.

Am I ready. NO.
Do I want to succeed. YES.
Here we go - wish me luck!

XOXO ~ g.m.

An Irish Blessing

An Irish Blessing in honor of St.Patricks Day & some very dear friends....

Sometimes I sit & remember days gone by...

Friends I haven't seen in years...

Memories that are all that remain of those days...

I wish them the best & am saddened that life has taken us in different directions...

But, I am proud & happy for the memories that I have retained.
Much love to them ~ my brothers.

I love my tattoos.
I love fresh ink.
I love the sound of the tattoo gun.
I love the 50's.

OH MY GAWD ~
I HEART SAILOR JERRY STYLE TATTOOS!!
I wish I had more $$$ to get more ink done.
The 50's style of tattooing, pin-ups, music, cars ~
damn that was one sexy decade!

XOXO ~ g.m.

trash the dress

Some 'peeks' at my 'trash the dress' shoot

So, I was given the opportunity to do a free photo shoot to help out a friend with her portfolio.
A 'trash the dress' shoot.
For those who don't know this is a chance to re-dawn your wedding dress - stress free - & have a great time. Which we did.
Myself & my MOH (maid of honor) got dressed up & played in the snow. Good times.

So much fun to relax & laugh!
There wasn't alot of time for that the day of my wedding a year & a half ago!
Stress was the key word for that day!

This was awesome!
Playing in the snow, on the swings, wearing my uggs!
if only I could dress up & feel like a gorgeous princess everyday...

XOXO ~ g.m.

give me a moment...

I would like to apologize.
I am (apparently) a terrible 'blogger'.

This is what happens when "life gets in the way".
Things get forgotten & pushed to the side.
I feel overwhelmed.
Crazzzzzy even.
I wish I could scream to release the pressure...

I will 'blog' again.
I will be positive.
I will get my shyte together.
I will be strong.
I will save face.
I will continue to love, be loved, & live.

So much to say & catch up on.....
I will be back.

all I want for Christmas...

....is my three front teeth!
My son lost 3 teeth in the month of August!
He speaks with a crazy lisp that
I am actually finding truly adorable!

did you hear the school bell?

My boy getting ready to leave for his first day of Grade2!

Saying a good-bye to his baby sister ~
she did not want him to go
with-out her.

School is back on!

I am happy and sad about this.
I miss my boy terribly & his sis is very disappointed that this is not her year to go
(january birthday & the cut off is december 31).
3 days in to the school year and now a p.a.day & long weekend!
They could've let us have the last few days of the summer.
