I'm a Stella & Dot Stylist - Eeeeeeek!

Honestly, I can say I've stalked Stella & Dot for a few years. Yep, stalked. I'm a stalker and I don't feel the least bit creepy :) I was first introduced to the company coincidentally through the blogging world. I was HUGE into giveaways and reviews (which I still love) and saw this awesome jewelry popping up all over the place. I visited their website, requested a Look book and got in touch with a stylist. Talk about blown away, I was hooked ever since!

I've sold through many direct sales companies. MANY, really too many and know an awesome opportunity when I see one. But was it a good opportunity for me? At that time I didn't think so. I didn't last longer than a year in those said companies. In 2011 was trying to focus on my blog, I was volunteering at church several times a week, we'd just bought our first home and I was due to have my 4th baby. I was swamped with duties and I couldn't feasibly add another one.

Fast forward to the present and little has changed with what's on my plate. I'm now homeschooling 4 kiddos, we have an 8mo baby boy, hubby has launched his photog biz with Real Xpressions Photography, the house we bought is still nowhere near home,y and we have one car that can not hold the entire family (there are seven of us). Back then doesn't seem so busy anymore.

So why now, life is even crazier! I believe maybe then wasn't a great time for me but what if I'd made that jump anyways, where would I be now? I think God has a plan for my life, he's set me up on many platforms to speak to the masses, now is a godly time. I now believe in myself which hasn't been the case for the majority of my life. God has been working on me a great deal and this is a tool I'll use to reach women, moms, daughters regardless if they shop, host, or join. I am a light and this is simply one of my many rays :) Wish me luck, send me prayers, and watch what God can do.

I've started a styling blog over at Haute Dot even though the details aren't even official. I plan to join up  in either June or July hoping the sooner the better :)

Dream Big... No Bigger!

The Hubs and I've had this dream for so long, to both work from home. Name some of the most popular work from home businesses and I've either done it or strongly considered joining. This dream we have is more than just a want, I truly feel God wants us both to work from home, homeschooling, and build our family up every single day in that manner. I will take the same role I have had for the past seven and a half years and manage behind the scenes for The Hubs aka The Photographer with Real Xpressions Photography.

My hubby has always been gifted interacting with little kids but getting them to shine into a camera has been really amazing to watch. The cutie pie pictured below is the son of my BFF also pictured and he's just 4 days older than my 2nd son. They're going to be friends for life if we can help it :)

This role is much needed. I can't say it's more important than my other MANY roles but it definitely will help make everything go much smoother. There are so many great moms out there that are juggling more kids and more tasks than me and do it so well. I've been struggling these past few months off and on and feel I really do need daddy's help at home. He'll tell you the same thing as far as running appointments, scheduling and such, he needs me too. It's a win-win and I can't wait to announce he's left his corporate job to be a Home-Dad!!!! It may happen sooner than we think :)
