Allow me to introduce myself

August 29, 2015

Whoop whoop! It’s the weekend! Yay! While the weekend finally being here is a good thing for most of you, for me it means I’m closer to going back to school/work. Don’t get me wrong, I love my job, but ya know what I love even more? Enjoying my summers off! It will be especially hard going back to work this year because I am leaving this adorable face:

You’d have a hard time leaving that too!

I know the last couple weeks have been a little slow on the blog front and I thank you all for being patient. Today I wanted to tell you a little bit about myself. I talk a lot about my life and motherhood thus far and I want all my new readers to know a little bit about the face behind the blog. A few weeks ago I turned 29 (OMG the last year of my 20s!) and I thought I’d share 29 fun facts about myself but then I didn’t want to bore you all. So I guess you’ll just have to settle for 10. 😉

Allow me to introduce myself:

  1. Before Olivia was born, my biggest fear was that my maternal instincts wouldn’t kick in. I was SO wrong. I don’t think it’s possible to love that baby more than I do.
  2. When I was growing up I wanted to be an actress until one day I realized I didn’t want to act, I just wanted to wear pretty clothes and be famous.
  3. I hate, hate, HATE centipedes. They are disgusting and just typing this makes me want to throw up.
  4. I am half Mexican and half Italian.
  5. I was a Zumba dance instructor for 4 years and loved it. Shake ya tail feather!
  6. I’ve traveled to 10 countries (Canada, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Aruba, Mexico, Spain, France, England, Denmark, Sweden) and want to need to travel more. I love traveling, it feeds my soul and one day I’ll share my bucket list with you all.
  7. My favorite color is purple
  8. I am a very silly person that loves to play practical jokes. Like the kind of person that will draw faces on your toes while you’re sleeping (just ask my husband!).
  9. I am what I like to call a ‘closet artist.’ I love painting, drawing, and almost anything artistic/crafty but I don’t do it enough and I’m not very confident in my work.
  10. My husband and I met at Bally’s Fitness. I used to do promoting jobs here and there and I had a gig at his gym giving away Gatorade. He was finishing his workout and as he walked by I offered him some Gatorade, the rest is history. 🙂

And that’s it! I hope you learned a little bit about me! I’d love to learn more about you! Tell me, where did you meet your spouse? What’s your biggest fear? What countries have you visited that should be on my bucket list?

XO,

L
