We are moving into the house I talked about, this is like a roller coaster, but the ride is over and we'll be living there sometime next week.
Just need to finish painting and cleaning and hopefully on my day off next week we'll sleep on our house :)
I started working and so far I am loving my new job, but I miss my patients from Los Cacaos.
We went to visit last sunday and felt all that love they've always had for us!
Hopefully after we finish moving I will settle back to a more normal organized routine, I also miss bloging and baking!

Reality!
I was reading a blog the other day where the author was criticized on one of the comments for not being real or bragging about a perfect life, that happened because usually her post are about good things going on in her life. This made me think a lot!I tried to be as “real” as possible here as I “can” but really how much do people expect you to share, of course my life is not perfect, I really don’t think anyone has a perfect life, but why share the bad stuff, why make it a part of your life so important that you feel the “need” to share. I have share before how much it upsets me not getting pregnant or my miscarriage, it still does, but do I have to share every little detail? Or talk about it in every single post?!Is ok to be sad, mad, to recognize your partner is not perfect, but do we need to share every dirty laundry out in public? NO, I believe we DON’T!
I was talking to a dear friend of mine the other day about Bayohán, she ended up saying how she wished things would be that way with her husband, I quickly jumped out and said: NO don’t say that!, Bayohán is far from perfect, no one is! I just rather think and share the good things he has and the many blessings we have in our life, if you sit down and think of all the positive things your husband have you could make a list and you will see why he is that person you fell in love with, but it is even easier to make a negative list, but why do that, why?!
Like when you look at photos of the holidays and everyone is smiling, of course things went wrong that day, your uncle got drunk or the food got burned, you remember! But when you look at the picture you see how everyone is smiling and what a good time you had…
In the end I rather remember the good stuff!

Good day!
Today was one of those great do nothing at all kind of day and I loved it :)
We spend all day eating blondies, and not because we had leftovers, but because we liked them so much I decided we NEEDED more, yes needed!
And we dont have leftovers today either :/
I also spend all day looking for complete movies on YouTube, and watched a couple of them and then I found this:
OMG childhood memories kept floating my head as I watched it, it is COMPLETE in YouTube. So go watch it, if you liked it when you were little you will love it even more now, I know I did :)
Also great to show your children if you have little ones.

25 Random Facts...
A lot of blogs are doing the 25 random facts and I decided to go ahead and post:
7. We both ate and dance a lot that day, I’ve always heard about people not doing this things, so we decided “hey! is a once in a lifetime thing and we are going to ENJOY it”… WE DID!
8. I designed my cake, it was a camouflage (fake cake) the real thing was in the back; here in DR a lot of people are doing that, a fake cake you don’t cut that is amazingly cute and the real thing is cut in the back and taken out when it is cake time ;)
9. We had aprox. 150 guests.
10. I only have one sister and she couldn’t come because she lives in Australia.
11. Our first song/dance was “Tu” (You in English) from Juan Luis Guerra (a famous artist here in DR).
12. I had something old (the fluffy thing you put under your dress skirt), something new (dress, earrings, crown and almost everything), something borrowed (same as the old) and something blue (my underwear :p).
13. The husband of the lady doing my dress died 3 days before my wedding and the dress was not finished… she finished it anyways and I will always be thankful to her for that!
14. We had cute little angels as souvenirs.
15. At the church we gave out some cute little sticks with bells on the top, so people will shake them during the ceremony.
16. Bayohán didn’t want the food to be served… he kept saying if we do people will leave after… so it was a late dinner.
17. One of my best friends was my maid of honor, plus my nephew and niece where flower girl and ring boy and that was it, I didn’t wanted to coordinate dresses for a lot of girls :p
18. My grandfather entered with me in the church, but my step dad gave me away.
19. At the beginning of the ceremony at church the priest said the wrong names, and his secretary had to run to get the correct paper with OUR names in the office.
20. It rained in the morning that day but the night (our wedding was at night) was beautiful!
21. Our decoration was a beautiful “Fall Theme”.
22. One of my best friend broke her leg that day, so she was in a wheel chair; she jokes that she did it for good luck ;p
23. I never saw my maid of honor, flower girl dresses or the ring boy clothes until the wedding :o I just trusted them to do it right.
24. My mother wanted me to rest that day as she was running the last errands for the wedding, I said NO WAY if I stay home I will be too anxious so I just went with her, everyone we saw that day kept saying: what are you doing here? You should be relaxing at home.
25. It was REALLY the happiest day of my life!
25 Random Facts about Our Wedding
1. I really wanted to get married on December 13th, because December is my favorite month of the year and 13 is my favorite number, but a lot of people had to travel for our wedding and where not going to be able to make it so close to the holiday (we ended up with Dec 2nd).
2. I hardly knew anything about the decoration and all the planning going on, my mother made everything for me… and I LOVED IT… a lot of people said I was weird because of that but I really hate that kind of stuff and she is soooo good at it! So every time she would ask me something I would say YOU pick it!
3. My mother in law accidentally hit my eye with a broom the day before my wedding; lucky for me it didn’t turn black and no scar!
4. Bayohán had fever the morning of our wedding, everyone though he was nervous, but he actually was sick in our honeymoon too!
5. Our photographer was crying in the ceremony (I though he was just being corny) and had to leave after he took the important pictures because his brother got killed and they called him… he did leave his assistants behind to take the rest of the pics and videos.
6. I lost 60 pounds for my wedding. I needed to loose weight at that time and that was my inspiration.

WHY??
I live in the Dominican Republic a beautiful island in the Caribbean, wish means I get the "good weather", remember?
Yep, my already dry clothes got wet when out of the blue it started raining, I had to carry them all in, get wet with the bad cold I have and "hang" them inside... why? because even on the sunniest day it rains (if I'm doing laundry OF COURSE!).
And if you dont belive me, check this out: Because of its almost year-round warmth and sunshine, some people refer to the Dominican Republic's climate as"endless summer."
You see, since we have such "nice" weather we only buy a washer, no dryer -what for if we have the beautiful sun to dry our clothes!?
We just hang them outside and they dry so fast and with a nice smell :D
But this only happens if I'm NOT doing my laundry, because EVERYTIME I do, for some reason it rains, it is a given fact that if I decide to wash our clothes it will rain! The weather folks here in DR should hire me!
So this is how my house looks today....
