Time Check – 00:17 Hrs
I am having mixed feelings about how fast time is flying, on the up side I am ecstatic seeing my son grow every other day / week / month that passes by. However the downside is I haven’t hit all my set goals for this time of the year but nevertheless I am still working towards them #TeamNotGiveUp. I don’t remember time flying this fast when I was younger, do you?
Laying:
Next to Ehan in bed, watching him sleep while I get this post ready and I must say Alhamdulilah (Thanks be to God), it’s well with my soul.
Listening:
To the strange sounds of the breast pump. Talk about major multitasking- I am your girl.
Sipping:
On some cold green tea, not the fanciest taste though.
Craving:
Chapatti which I know I must stay away from but tomorrow will be the last day and I will be on a chapatti cleanse.
Reading:
“Who was Muhammad Ali?” By James Buckley Jr. Indeed acquiring knowledge is a never ending process and reading is something we should indulge in once in a while. Was it just me that thought Muhammad Ali was born Muslim? No? But I am happy to know he was born Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr.
Following:
Nothing at the moment because I need to get me a new player although my TV time is quite minimal these days.
Planning:
On sleeping in tomorrow morning till about 8:30am (hoping my little Bossman lets me) had such a long productive day today, I could use a slight break.
Needing:
To take care of myself more. I must admit I almost lost myself postpartum as I buried myself in Ehan activity only (which isn’t a bad thing) and I was a bit hesitant to accept help but then I know the best version of Maya will make the best mommy to Ehan so I intend to revive the best version of me. Firstly will be by hitting the gym (gotta tone dem thighs and butt😜) and being consistent – how do people fall in love with working out? I need to know because I want to be like those people.
Feeling:
Quite helpless after Ehan fell the other day. If only we would just skip this part and get to walking ready although I know it’s part of the process. These are milestones to celebrate but seeing my baby boy with bruises makes me sad.
Loving:
My super cute one piece swimsuit and cover up from Zaful. Hadn’t been to the pool in such a long time and these two pieces carried me all the way today. If you are one who doesn’t like to show everything off, these a perfect- full details will be up on the blog next week.
Hoping:
To be more consistent with my posts and YT videos ( I know I have said this before but I am devising better strategies to help me keep up). I intend to be all up in your faces guys so please be sure to Subscribe on the blog Here and on my YouTube channel Here.
Thinking:
Of incorporating more mama-hood content on the blog – sharing my experiences, thought and ideas, as well as seeking help where need arises. Remember “it take a village to raise a child”.
Wearing:
Lots of off shoulder tops lately (especially this specific printed one) had to tailor three more like this with plain colored fabric, I just can’t get enough.
Excited:
To see another bundle of joy that came into this world yesterday. Looks like all Ehan’s future playmates are girls, I am already worried about their hair coz Boiiii – Ehan’s got such a strong grip.
Baffled:
As to why my son has rejected all types of formula I have tried. He’s been exclusively breastfed which I am glad I did but being the type of person who likes to have a plan B, I would like to have a feeding Plan B in case the breast milk runs out while I am away. Has any of you guys experienced this? What did you do?
Not looking forward to:
Resuming school. After about seven months of switching school mode off, I have to get back soon – 4 modules to go. I am really not looking forward to spending my weekends at school again.
Proud:
Of my consistence the past couple of weeks, posting every Tuesday and Thursday on the blog and YouTube channel respectively. I have always known consistence is key but sometimes I slack (just like any other human) – therefore once I make progress I like to give myself a pat on the back. However today is meant to be YouTube day but I decided it’s been a minute since the last taking Stock series and decided to catch up with you guys but be sure to check out my latest video HERE.
Riding:
On the people’s underestimation of me and I must say I am loving it. Usually people label others and underestimate their potential, if that happens to you – let that be your motivation and your actions will do the talking.
Knowing:
That to win in anything you do, all you have to do is Be You. Be consistent. Be consistent!
Time Check : 01:40 Hrs Cutting this post short because your girl has to catch some sleep but first let me feed “our” son😄
Grateful:
For life and you guys, I appreciate all the love and support ❤️
