So I did a thing and entered #AntonMataeo in the 24th annual DFWChild Model Search. As part of our participation, they sent us a custom digital souvenir special cover of DFWChild magazine! The @kimdawsonagency is reviewing all the submissions and will inform us if #babyboy has been selected for an upcoming magazine cover for the next year. If selected they will contact us for a Photoshoot! I’ll keep y’all posted! . . . #momlife #joysofmotherhood #ilovemylife #boybun #Longhairboy #longhairdontcare #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #3yearold #mybeautufulboy #sweetchildofmine #threenager #toddlersofinstagram #momlife @dfwchildmag #dfwchild #kidmodelsearch2022 (at Fort Worth, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmhB4CFOo0I/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We are so quick to examine the sin instead of the Heart! But if we are Believers of Christ, let Love be genuine for Christ is LOVE!!! Because of Love Jesus died for Us. Because of Love we are forgiven. Romans 3:23 states "for all have sinned and fallen short of God's Glory ". John 13:34 "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, just as I love you, you also are to love one another". Luke 6:41 "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye". If we are believers of Christ, we should model the LOVE that Christ modeled to everyone❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Take your eyes off the Sin and open your HEART to LOVE #jesuslove #getyourfaithup #godislove #jesusword #bible #inspirationalquotes #inspire #love #christianblogger #blackwomenbloggers #singlechristian #womenofgod #womenofgod #holyspirit #holybible #christianwomeninbusiness #godisfaithul #godisgood #jesus #jesuscalling #jesuschrist #jesussaves

#AntonMataeo and I came to#MCD to get some breakfast and we have the whole playground to ourself #fornow. We need to get some groceries and @erikkluetz went to a historical walking tour in downtown @cityoffortworth so #babyboy and I decided to come here to pass the time! . . . #momlife #joysofmotherhood #ilovemylife #longhairnomore #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #3yearold #threenager #threenagerlife #mybeautufulboy #sweetchildofmine #threenager #toddlersofinstagram #2023 #energizertoddler (at McDonald's) https://www.instagram.com/p/Coh0l7vOTyJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#antonmataeo has been stuck in the house since Sunday because 1) he had a low grade fever along with cold and congestion and 2) we had an ice storm with below freezing temperatures here in DFW that’s pretty much shut down everything. So @erikkluetz set up the mini trampoline in his soon to be #playroom and he just wants to jump all day and night. #cabinfevercure to the rescue! . . . #momlife #joysofmotherhood #ilovemylife #longhairnomore #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #3yearold #threenager #threenagerlife #mybeautufulboy #sweetchildofmine #threenager #toddlersofinstagram #2023 #energizertoddler #texasicestorm2023 (at Casa de Kluetz) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoIqo3CJ_h8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Why wasn’t I told that having a toddler boy is like having a puppy who runs around leaves messes everywhere, bites and scratches when you play together and growls when you tell them no! . . . . #momlife #boymom #antonmataeo #joysofmotherhood #ilovemylife #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #3yearold #mybeautufulboy #sweetchildofmine #threenager #toddlersofinstagram (at Fort Worth, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnR8k7oOzmp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So We gave #AntonMataeo his #firsthaircut last night. He cried when he realized what we had done and wanted us to put it back. . It was time. I wanted the first cut to be on his own terms, he had warmed up to the idea, said yes but I am not sure he knew what that meant fully. . His hair had become a little to much to undertake with a rambunctious toddler. He was fighting me to wash or comb or brush and he would get knots that took forever to get out. But he had beautiful luscious Sandy brownish blonde hair and I wonder if the color will change and the texture. My cousins who had Honduran moms and German fathers hair were similar to Anton’s and theirs got darker over time. . A few weeks ago he asked me if he would still be #handsome if he got a haircut. I told him he’d be handsome with long or short, curly or wavy or straight. He said Okay Mommy. . @erikkluetz said it was sad mostly because of his reaction and he has been the biggest advocate for cutting it ever since strangers started mistaking him for a girl because of his long hair. But he also never really had to tussle with him to get his hair put up or comb it either. . . . #momlife #joysofmotherhood #ilovemylife #longhairnomore #newdeu #milestone #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #3yearold #mybeautufulboy #sweetchildofmine #threenager #toddlersofinstagram #2023 #newyear (at Casa de Kluetz) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnM2A7EpHCU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Pray for #AntonMataeo & Mommy, he doesn’t know it yet but he’s gotta get a blood draw today for his allergy panel. Several moms recommended coming to @cookchildrens lab to get it done bc they’ve had good experiences. I’m flying solo so it’s gonna be interesting. . #joysofparenting #latergram #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #3yearsold #mybeautufulboy #thischild #sweetchildofmine #terrifictoddler #toddlersofinstagram #longhairdontcare #momlife #fallinTexas #beautifulboy #toddlerlife #boybun (at Cook Children's Medical Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjQbgVUsBH0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So #AntonMataeo has another sick day from #preschool today! . Would REALLY appreciate your prayers for his immune system to be boosted to fight off any #allergies, colds or other sicknesses that comes with the territory! I am not sure if this is a new thing or a continuation of what we dealt with last week. . With him having #reactiveairwaydisease combined with the allergies and #eczema...we are always fighting something it can be so much to deal with all day every day. Erik wonders if staying in Texas is #goidforpurhealth between the allergies and the mosquitoes those are enough to make some people leave. . He was doing so great before we took our trip to the east coast and a month later still working on clearing up his skin and minimizing the seasonal allergies with diet, supplements and creams. . Yesterday he was coughing a lot then got sick of his stomach because of all the coughing and phlegm. He has had some labored breathing and an Runny nose, sneezing and a low grade fever. Yesterday he was in good spirits today he’s a little more clingy and would not eat anything except juice. He said he has a sore throat too.

#AntonMataeo has his first #sickday from #preschool on Thursday. He had a little cough, runny nose and lots of sneezing. If they have a cough they prefer they stay home #justtobesafe He was all dressed and ready to go to school. He decided that he wanted to wear his pineapple shirt he pulled it out of the closet and said this one too momma. Then We went in the back yard he played in his sand box for a bit and then the aggressive texas mosquito’s discovered we were outside so we went back inside after getting stung two or three times. . Once we were back inside he started wheezing. So I do feel like it’s was #allergies, I just was looking at my memories and he was sick this way last year and thankfully we didn’t have to make a trip to urgent care this year. . I’ve been treating his symptoms with my normal homeopathic regimen and supplements also giving him nebulizing treatments which have kept this thing in check. Ragweed was really high and he was around cats and dogs this week. Could be a combination of a cold and allergies but he’s on the mend and looking forward to taking on the week! . Even a stuffy nose and little cough couldn’t stop this kid, he was running and playing, singing and dancing all day long. I wish I had this energy lol! . #joysofparenting #latergram #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #3yearold #mybeautufulboy #thischild #sweetchildofmine #terrifictwos #toddlersofinstagram #longhairdontcare #momlife #summerinTexas #beautifulboy #toddlerlife #boybun (at Casa de Kluetz) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiqwTduMnmz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#AntonMataeo made it into the fall catalog for classes at the @cityofhursttx @hurstparksandrecreation. He has thoroughly enjoyed his classes. And looks forward to them every week! I can’t believe he will be #Threeyearsold next month! Time has flown my so fast and I wish I could click pause! . . . #joysofparenting #latergram #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #2yearold #mybeautufulboy #thischild #sweetchildofmine #terrifictwos #toddlersofinstagram #longhairdontcare #momlife #summerinTexas #beautifulboy #toddlerlife #boybun #happyfeet (at Hurst Recreation Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cgc1zJGp4nG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Yesterday #AntonMataeo was painting all day in his “Art Studio” aka my kitchen, lol. We had a fun day making art pieces and working on drawing shapes. He’s got the foundation for a circle going. We used @ohuhuart dot markers, @crayola paint sticks and watercolors. It’s so fun watching him “color color” he is so intentional about where he puts certain colors and is like “red goes here, blue goes here” as he paints. I wonder if we have a budding #LeonardoDivinci on our hands. He’s really into how things work and figuring them out as well as enjoys arts and crafts! . . . #joysofparenting #latergram #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #2yearold #mybeautufulboy #thischild #sweetchildofmine #terrifictwos #toddlersofinstagram #longhairdontcare #momlife #summerinTexas #beautifulboy #toddlerlife #boybun #artist (at Casa de Kluetz) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfhq5tJJgj-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This week #AntonMataeo got his first library card and even checked out 5 books! He had a grand time at the #library. He didn’t understand the concept of shhhh or being quiet but I plan on going more regularly so he can learn that concept before #preschool this fall . NOW Anton challenges your #toddler to join him in the Read 1000 books before #kindergarten! Your kiddo can join him in the challenge thru joining with your local #library account, then they can track & share the books they read together on Beanstack App by entering his friend code: 2AZNFV9. .

#AntonMataeo absolutely loves his #happyfeet class he takes at a local community center #latergram. . I’m so glad I looked into activities like this to do during the summer months. It’s really affordable and close to home. . Most major metro areas have great community centers and family passes to utilize if you live in that city and can be cheaper than the ymca even! They have everything for every age group classes for basket weaving to karate to ballet, gymnastics, toddler craft, dance, science and music classes. If you don’t get the family pass the classes are like $6-10 a week. It’s totally worth it . In the fall, he’s starting #preschool so we both need to get working on to getting up early and going to class. I’m glad I’ve got a strong tea to get me up in the morning lol! . . #joysofparenting #sensitiveskin #weareblessed #iLoveHim #miraclebaby #butbabyitsworthit #ilovemylife #babykluetzmiracle #allboy #thisishowifightmybattles #MiraclesdoHappen #Godisfaithul #firstborn #2yearold #mybeautufulboy #thischild #sweetchildofmine #terrifictwos #toddlersofinstagram #longhairdontcare #momlife #summerinTexas #beautifulboy #toddlerstrong #toddlerlife #samuraihairbun (at Hurst Recreation Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce9BmCLO-0j/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
