Wordless Wednesday with Linky - Twins

If you have been following my blog, a while back I wrote about how I need super powers because I was babysitting my friend's 8 month old baby. Trey was just 9 months old so basically it seemed like having twins. It turned out very very hard. What was I thinking!? I had even agreed on babysitting Xander for 7 weeks! Trey is so possessive and didn't want me holding Xander. Trey is loud when he plays, especially when he is in his house (his territory) and Xander is scared of loud sounds. They cried at the same time and tried to outdo each other by crying louder than the other. We didn't survive. I ended up only doing it for 7 days. I can't even imagine how families who have twins or multiples even made it through. Maybe it would have been easier if both babies were my own?

Keeping Your Relationship Fresh

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of TwoOfUs for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Everyone has relationship questions. All our friends and certainly members of our family have advice they are more than willing to give us. But do we always want to go to them? Wouldn't it be nice if there was a place we could go with our relationship questions and get advice without having to endure the subtext given to us by close friends and family?

The good thing is there is an awesome place to go to for all our relationship questions if we don’t want to confide to our friends or family about our situation. Twoofus.org has tips on keeping your relationship fresh.  They have advice about relationships of any type. Whether we are dating, exclusive, engaged, married, and/or parents. The site offers great articles, hot topics, additional resources, quick polls and even featured videos to help us out in keeping our relationship fresh and the best it can be.

The site has this great video of award winning actor and best-selling author, Hill Harper http://www.twoofus.org/educational-content/videos/hill-harper-the-conversation/index.aspx. He talks about throwing a conversation party in which the people will anonymously write any questions they have and put it on a hat and let everyone answer all the questions. This way they can share and learn different views from each other. Also, it benefits for a better face to face conversation which is not found in the popular social networking nowadays.    

It is an awesome site to follow and don’t forget to click “like” on their Facebook page. This way, you can always stay up to date and current on their latest and hottest topics.

Do you have any relationship questions like me? I would like to know too. Please leave a comment below and share.

Shoe Style Saturday

Every Saturday, Living Outside the Stacks hosts a fun meme for shoe lovers. Since I am a shoe addict I was so thrilled to join. It is always fun to see other kinds of shoes. But since I am so busy working on my part time job on weekends I did not get the chance to join until today I finally had the time to write my post in advance.
This is one of my favorite pair of shoes. I bought them online at MakeMeChic.com.

Ok I admit they are not the most comfortable shoes. They are best worn if you don't have to walk or stand for long. I only wore it twice. On my friends bachelorette party.

And on my 4th wedding anniversary. I have to ask my husband to take off his shoes so I will look as tall as him on this picture.
Photobucket
Of course my little one wanted to show his shoes too.

These shoes are all given by my sister and mom and in-laws. I guess I have a mini me shoe addict except he just likes shoes for biting.

Wordless Wednesday with Linky -Meet our pug Mango

Today I am late putting up my photos. Good thing I have my kids and my computer not cooperating as an excuse.
I want to introduce you to our family's best friend. Meet our pug Mango.
He wasn't sure at first the first time he came home and joined our family. He was so timid and so tiny. Look how tiny he was,3 years ago.

Before we knew it, he grew up into a handsome teenager.

And found his first girlfriend.

What did you do for Mother's day?

I did nothing for the most part of the day(which is what I wanted to do). I slept till 3 in the afternoon. I had a crappy night at work the night before, I was so tired when I got home. Then they took me shopping,(which is my favorite thing to do). I hope everyone had a beautiful Mother's day yesterday. And I want to share a photo of me and my amazing Mom. She came to visit us last winter. I miss her so much!
Photobucket
Being a mom is not for wimps. Thank you Mom for being patient with me. I love you!

Q1. Is there really a such thing as a 'perfect' mother? What is your definition of one? A perfect mom for me is somebody imperfect but loves, supports, and encourages her children to be the best person they could be.

Q2. What famous person must have had a great mother?Probably me because I have a great mother and I am famous in my own family. Haha!

Q3. What kind of mother's or what mother would you like to have a talk with to give some direction? Those mother's who are having a hard time and need some help.
