Really, Happy New Year? or Maybe not

Happy New Year!? People seem to get very excited about the "New Years”. I really don’t quite get it because to me everyday is a “new” opportunity to achieve greatness. I understand it is an opportunity to spend time with family and friends. I spent many New Years up in the mountains of Maine snowboarding with my husband and friends. Since having children (2.5 yrs old and 1 year) we stay local, order in and watch a children’s movie and well write blogs once the kids go to bed. I suppose I could use this time to reflect on the past year but reflecting is something I practice daily. I don’t require a change in the year to make me go back and think about how my year went. It is important to constantly be reflecting and learning from previous actions. So yes, “Happy New Year”!

Grateful for Family...my lifestyle after my husbands heart attack

1 year ago on Sunday marks a time when my family's life was turned upside down for a bit! That morning I watched my husband pace in the kitchen in pain. Thanks to the support of my brothers and sister in law my husband went to the hospital and was eventually treated properly for a heart attack. He was rushed to Tufts in Boston where my brother and I slept on the hospital floor (I was 7 months pregnant!) while my husband received the care he needed. Two stents were placed in a Major artery that was 100% blocked. 

Doctors kept referring his condition as the "widow maker"! Just what a preggo mother loves to hear! This was completely unexpected, but I do believe it happened for a reason. Since then we have changed our eating habits completely and we are all feeling great! It is sad that an event like this has to happen in order for you to change your lifestyle! Better late than never though! Feeling lucky for my family, the fact that my brothers live close and are doctors, and the current medical care we have in place.

Been thinking about my bucket list and decided it is time to get working on it! The first item is a Marathon! I am beyond excited that two of my favorite people will be running with me. We will be running the Cape Cod Marathon in February..dead of the winter..Awesome! Bring it! What’s on your bucket list?

A Google + tutorial for Moms

Learn some cool things about Google + in this extensive tutorial I created.

Helping others live healthy...

I’ve had many jobs..to name a few..Babysitting, Nanny, Bagel Shop worker, Lifeguard/swim instructor, computer tech, general education teacher, candy striper, special education teacher, wellness coach, school administrator..and well MOM! Many of these jobs have been challenging in different ways. My most favorite job is being a Mom. Although this job takes an intense amount of patience, consistency and stregnth. And my kids are amazing..They really are amazing. They’ve always slept through night. They take 2-3 hour naps everyday on cue. They are easier than any other child I’ve ever cared for.  But each day has its challenges. I have an almost 2.5 year old and she tests her limits everyday all day. However, it is my job as her Mother to provide consistent structure throughout the day. If I set up a limit I have to follow through no matter what. Parents shape behavior 24/7 from the moment their child is born.  Every move you make, or don’t make shapes behavior. I try to be consistent when setting limits.  A big part of setting limits is warning my daughter about what is to come. Reminding her about transitions and letting her know what to expect. If I don’t follow through, she turns around and tries it again because she has learned that she can get away with it. No matter how big or small a behavior I must be consistent and follow through. Every child needs structure. My daughter will throw a fit at times but my response to that fit is crucial. Stay calm, remain in control and continue with the limit.  Parenting isn’t easy and there aren’t really any classes teaching you how to be a perfect parent. We all make mistakes. But if there is one thing you can do to be successful and have your children  be successful is to shape their behavior by being consistent and providing them with structure. They learn from you every minute of the day, even while they are sleeping!
