Time For A New Year

I seriously can’t believe that it’s already the last day of the year! It’s crazy!!! I feel like just the other day I was just getting glammed up to bring in 2013 and it’s already 2014! I know this will make me sounds like an old lady but gosh times flies!! This past year was a great year in my life!! A lot of great transformations occurred in my life! Many of them where unseen to all of you but I was truly blessed in 2013! I grew in my faith. Became a even better wife ;)! Went on a vacation! Turned 21 and got pregnant sometime during that week. I don’t really know how to explain it all but all I can say is that I have grown a lot as a person through this past year!

Since it’s the last day of there year it only feels right to do a recap of my best moments of 2013!

2013 was such an awesome year and I know 2014 will be even better!!

Stay Blessed!

Christmas Throwbacks!

Growing up I remember my dad would always spend the whole month of November decorating our house and making it look gorgeous for the holidays. The holiday season consisted of Frank Santra Music and Mom going crazy baking her head off! My parents would always try their best to incorporate both our Puerto Rican and Italian culture into the Christmas season. Yummy food, bubbly drinks and gorgeous gifts where a staple in our home!

Here are some fun throwbacks from years past!!

I Hope you all have a fabulous Christmas!!

Preggo Problems!!

k so as I write this it is seriously two in the morning! Baby T is hungry and kicking the crap out of me so I’m up feeding him protein yogurt! I know I said I would post all week about glamour but I lied and this is why… im tired, still sick and just moody from being pregnant! I feel like everyone around me is on a mission to lose weight while I just become a bigger fatty! And even though I am trying my best to eat healthy all I really want is to eat chocolate Carmel brownies and pizza all day long!!

I’m Almost seven months pregnant which is just crazy to think about. I feel like just the other day I was seeing two lines on the pregnancy test and now I’m almost seven months pregnant! EEK! I can honestly say I haven’t gained much weight just three pounds but I know that is all about to change in my third trimester! I’m hungrier than ever! My normal jeans don’t fit and running is really starting to hurt my back. My body hurts all the time. Thank the lord I have a chiropractor appointment on Thursday. Im hoping she can fix me up! & Yes I know I’m just complaining but my wonderful husband doesn’t really getting so im venting to you!

Did I mention that I’m going to be a mom! That’s so crazy to me but is a good scary kinda a way! I cant wait to meet him and hold him. See what his little personality is like! I know the next three months are probably going to fly by and before I know I will officially be a mom! But until then im just going to get bigger and more uncomfortable. So I just have to suck it up because all the end of this im going to get a sweet baby and there are women who would kill to be in my shoes!

So overall I am truly blessed and that is what matters!

I hope you all have a wonderful day!!

The Perfect New Change!

Hey There Gorgeous!!

Notice anything different today? Not only does the blog have a awesome new blog design but it also has a new name. For a long time now I have been thinking about changing my blog name because I didn’t like it but I never knew to what. So when the beautiful Katie agreed to work with me on a new blog design I thought this would be the perfect time to change my blog name.

The reason I changed my name blog name was because I truly just didn’t like the name and people always kept confusing my name with tarin so I just thought it had to be done!

But seriously can we give some major props to Katie because she made my ugly old blog into something fabulous! Before my blog was just hideous and now it reflects who I am and I love that! She was so easy to work with and I really appreciate that she took the time to explain things to me because through the process she helped me learn a little about blog design! If you are looking for someone great to help with blog design make sure to check her out.

In honor of my fabulous new design this week will be GLAM week! Every post for the next week will have to do with little tricks i use to keep me life a little more glam. For all my local readers you know that’s kinda hard to do around here! So keep an eye out for my favorite glamtastic secrets!

I hope u all have great day & stay Glamorous!!

Holiday Wish List 13

As I blog today I am currently stuck in a snow storm, drinking some amazing hot chocolate and listening to Frank Sanatra Christmas music! As much as I love having our own place I always miss my family a little more around the holidays. Growing up Christmas was a great time of year at my house! I remember my dad blaring Frank’s music while decorating the whole house and my mom in the kitchen always baking something yummy! I hope that as I grow older and Benjamin is born we can also set our own little family traditions that make Christmas special to our home!

I don’t know about you but my husband always has a hard time shopping for me around the holidays! So this year I decided to put together easy holiday wish list and he can shop from!

Here are some of my holiday Cravings! What are you guys asking for this Christmas!
