Memorial Weekend Camping

This memorial day weekend two of my friends talked me into going camping at Foss Lake.  The reason why I said "talked" me into it is because I didn't think I was the camping type, but turns out I AM!  This was the first time I had been camping in 6 years!  I think the success was due to sleeping on a big air up mattress and bug spray! The only thing I was bummed about was never getting to go out on the boat.  The winds were so high and terrible there were zero boats out on the water.
The closest I got to the water was laying out on the sand and taking a good hour nap.  Waking up from the nap wasn't so great though due to the sand that covered my body.  It was nice though to get away for two days and have a little mommy brake.  I really enjoyed the small things like being able to lay out and listen to my itunes or just hanging out with friends and knowing I didn't have to be any where.  The best part was that I didn't have any concept of time.  I left my phone in my bag and was just able to relax and know that I wasn't on a schedule.  My every day life is ran by the  clock feeding time, nap times, workout times, what time I have to be at work , etc... So the brake was nice!

My Return from being MIA

Okay so Life Is Crazy Busy!!!!! I only work an average of 3 days a week which makes it sound like I would have tons of free time to blog, but being a single mom is a full time job in it self!
Let me just start off by saying I am truly blessed! I have never felt as great as I do today! Ella has been the biggest blessing God has given me!  I was the girl who never thought she wanted to be pregnant or have her own kids and today I would do it all over again.
Ella Turned 11 Months today so this is her final month under the age of one year! Hard to believe! It's true they really do grow up fast!  I am already starting to plan her big blow out birthday party! I can't wait!
Lately I have been busy keeping up with my little  one! Here our some pics from the last couple months I missed blogging on:
I Finally Went to Vegas in April to Celebrate a Friend's 25th Birthday!

I Took Ella to the Zoo for the First Time and She Loved it!

Ella goes to the park with me every morning while I jog- This was her first time in the park swing!

I got on the back of a motorcycle for the first time in almost two years! We took a ride out to Pops!

I finally started getting Ella's room decorated, her favorite thing is this super soft PINK rug!

And this Photo was taken today because my baby is NOW 11 MONTHS!
(And she has figured out she can take her own clothes off)
