On a nice hot day like this...

So finally, it seemed to take forever but I believe that summer has officially arrived. All the cloudy days have been a downer to me and some sunshine was just the cure to my blues.
Recently things have been going quite well, getting the house in order, doing some summer arranging, attempting to clean up the front yard outside my town home. Yep, its busy as always but good.

Not to change the subject too much but...
Just til about a couple of weeks ago, I have been trying to decide whether or not if I still want my manager McDonalds job. I only work one day a week and that single day seems to always dread me, I 'm getting more and more to the decision of quitting permenantly and just be a true stay at home mommy. With all the things that I need/want to do and no time to do it, has been stressing me out. I do just want to be laid back, happy, and always ready to lend a helping hand to those who need it. Maybe I do need to take a step back from that single Saturday job to do what I want. Be that person that I want to be.
I feel like I'm missing the highlights of my day by not being with my son, I don't feel happy being away from him for 9+ hours in one day just to work to get just a little bit of money that dosen't go very far anyway. My relationship status with my husband is still amazing! But I miss him so much cause we are both gone all day on Saturdays working.
Weekends have become the hardest for me because of working, and I always thought that weekends are suppose to be relaxing...
Oh well, more than likely I will stop working.
I always find things to do around my little townhome, for example my wonderful mother-in-law sells blueberries in big bulk and she gave me a HUGE 5lb bag at not cost to me!
Which is totally awesome so I then made some blueberry jam, I just finished making them and the jars are cooling now.
I've never done this sort of thing before (canning) but I have always wanted to try.



Here are the results


I'll let you know how it tastes, I guess you want it to sit at room temperature for 24 hours before eating any of it, to make it thicker. At least to my common knowledge, I think that's why.



Josiah is getting incredibly bigger, I'm putting clothes in the 'save box' nearly every week. I'm desperatly stretching some of his onesis to still fit him...most the time on hot days I just leave him in a diaper--which is less laundry to me! whot! whot! haha.




All smiles here, he is such a happy baby, I am a blessed mommy to have a happy beautiful boy!











And this is what we do when its hot and I don't mind messy.
I just lay out a little bit of rice cereal and he goes to town.



And the results
