In love with Online x

It's a little late for Valentines day Crafts, but if you still have a spare afternoon with the kids try this handy and easy craft (Courtesy of Pinterest, click the picture to get instructions on how to)

 

This would be fun & easy to make with the kids. I'd do this but make some cute little heart chocolates with my boys to put in there instead of gum.

Not only do we get to celebrate Valentines Day this week, but Thursday the 13th of February marks my 4th wedding Anniversary to my hubby. We met on the 13th.

 

I love this pic best because we are in love. I wasn't one of those brides who had to have a zillion gorgeous shots of herself (I dont mind if you did :) but the day to me was about the two of us and the Amazing people we shared it with.  I still cant believe I am lucky enough to be married to someone this Awesome.. I dont deserve him some days.

As most married couple with kids we are too busy with work commitments and such to do anything really special. But I've bought a nice card, and we'll have gifts for each other.

What are YOU doing to celebrate Valentines day?

For those of you who don't know, we met online a dating service. Match.com to be precise. It is corny, but golly it was love at first sight. We emailed back and forth for only a week, then met halfway from our hometowns (mine was Ballarat and he Swan Hill ) and we spent the entire day together by the Big lake in Bendigo. We talked about everything from life long goals, to kids (and how many we wanted) In fact so serious were we right then and there we negotiated number of kids and I promised him to name our first born son Memphis.

We dated for 6 months before I packed up and moved to Swan Hill. It was a huge leap of faith but I never doubted for one moment that it wasn't right.I highly recommend online dating!

I would love to hear about how you met your partner. 

And so fast forward to today, we're still happily married, 2 Gorgeous boys, a renovated home, lots of different jobs for us both and a business.Needless to say I love Online, online dating, online shopping, online research (hello Google) online games, online everything!

I look forward to so many more adventures,  ups and downs, and maybe even some more kiddo's with my hubby. I hope you are as happy with your partner!

Happy Valentines to you all!xo

Ready, Set and GO!

I've just signed up for the 6 week Mumpreneur Program.

I applied for a full schoalship but wasnt lucky enough to get it.However Peace offered me a great deal and I couldnt say no!

I am so set to make 2014 a Great year for my little business. I am determined to make it work.. It's so darn hard but I am realising the biz needs so much more than just stock (and golly do I love buying new stock) I could have every item possible and still not make a dollar if no one knows about me. So this year that's what I plan on doing. Getting everyone to know about Baby For Life.

The Mumpreneur program starts tomorrow which will kick me off for my coaching session with Sal on Tuesday. I am so excited. I feel like it's really going to make a difference! I don't think I can fail with a whole team of experts behind me.

All week I've been thinking about Sal and the business moving forward. I call it the Sal effect. I have this little fire burning in me telling me to go go go, I can do it, and it's all achievable.Nothing is out of reach if I put my mind to it. (of course there's things that finances may put just out of reach, but there's ways around it) I'm so excited I'm telling all my work colleagues about it. My excitement is rubbing off on them. They're smiling. I love that feeling. Being that happy bubbly Bec that explodes with happiness and help to make others happy too! I like being this person. If only I could bottle it so on a bad day I'd just take a sip and Bam Happy Bec is back :) I think everyone needs a Sal. I needed Sal a long time ago, I try not to dwell on the what if's (where would the biz be now if only I found her sooner?)

I'm making real plans. I'm talking 12 months of Business plans of Social Media, Newsletters, Marketing! It's the first time in a long time I've planned for this far forward. Partly because I was very disorganized in the past, lacked belief in myself that I could actually make things work, also lacked vision and direction (that's where Sal comes in) and also at times was very non committal about the business staying open.

I'd love you all to join me on my journey, help support me- I'd love to offer encouragement to you too if you need it? Till next time Mmwwahhh xoxo Bec
