M.I.A

So I realize I've been a little MIA with the blog, but I've had a LOT going on. I have now been with the Sonesta for a month, my routine has changed (or become non-existent I should say) and Aiden has developed a new vocabulary.

The new job is great, but it definitely comes with its downfalls. There are people who are in "sales" but don't really have to sell. People come to them looking to buy a product (so there really isn't much skill needed) or people just manage accounts and sell to an already existing clientele - again not much needed there other than product knowledge. What I have to do complete cold calls - go out there and search for a contact, then pray for a lead, then even better a contract! So it's been fun and exciting to start establishing those contacts and build those relationships, but it's also been quite the hunt. Because the schedule is also a little stricter - at least in the mornings, I have not been able to make it to the gym in the mornings and I'm too tired at night...in addition to that, I have to come home and cook, so I can't really go right after work. I'm trying to create a new routine though and work something out with Isaac so that I can feel a little less stressed. And working out helps :)

Aiden is growing right before our eyes...he's becoming so independent now. And stubborn lol, but I guess that was expected being that he is the product of Isaac and me. His newest favorite word is "NO" and he has learned what a temper tantrum is. He's quite good at it too, very dramatic.

Oh yeah, we also got our engagement pictures taken!!! They came out so great and I can't wait to see the rest of them! Now I just have to find the right save the dates and get them sent out. Ayi yi yi...so much to do and so little time! So there's my update in a shell: busy and stressed!
