I decided to start this blog, because our Son Noah Masiano Marley Fio is growing so quickly & I want us as a family to look back & never forget a second of our journey together! Noah was born April 27, 2009 in Tacoma, WA! He is almost six months now & so much has happened I don’t know where to begin…….
When I went back to work after my Maternity Leave expired, I remember being so anxious, praying that my son would understand why his Mommy & Daddy were gone 8 hours a day. My husband worked from 7a-3:30p & I worked 3:30p-Midnight. So our family time was limited. My first day back to work @ Alaska Airlines was an emotional roller coaster. I was blessed however to double jack with an agent by the name of Loretta, sitting next to her, Solvita. These two amazing females were God sent. I was a stereotypical mom showing off every picture I owned from his naked butt, to his beautiful smile! Both Loretta, & Solvita are Mommies, and they began telling me how impressionable these first couple years are going to be for my family,that’s when Solvita lectured a few words that would in turn change my entire perception of my career, “Looking back, if I could have stayed home and been a Housewife, & Mom, I would have gave up anything!“ It was then I realized that I don’t want to miss a second of my Son’s life. I want to be there for his first real words, I want to see him crawl, & walk, & share every laugh & tear with him.
A few days later I received news that they might be furloughing the lowest 75 agents on the seniority list. Not even a second later I found myself volunteering to be laid off. A few weeks after my bid was excepted I heard music to my ears, “You know why your hear right?”, I smiled as much as could and said, “Yes ma’yam, I’m being furloughed!!!!!!!” , “Yes you will be one of the agents being furloughed!” I am not even exaggerating when I say, I heard bells, and voices singing“Hallelujah,Hallelujah Halle-Lujah!”
So for my last two weeks at Alaska Airlines I worked 12-15 hour days with NO days off, to get a little extra money, for our last Free Trip! (My husband, Noah, My Mom, Little Brother NeeNee, & Noah are going to Vermont!) These past couple weeks Masi really took care of our home & our precious Son. I mean he did laundry, cleaned, even our bathroom was spic & span! God has blessed me with an amazing husband & he’s the perfect Daddy, I couldn’t have dreamt of someone more perfect. I must admit despite my excitement with becoming unemployed, I realized how attached I have become to many of my co-workers. Alaska did such an amazing job hiring so many exceptional people! I was extremely emotional, but come the next day when I didn’t have to get ready for work, I realized I now have the most important job in the entire world, I am a HOUSEWIFE & STAY @ HOME MOMMY!
Saturday Myself, Noah, NeeNee, Charlie, & Auntie made our way down to the “Little People, Big World Farm“in Hillsboro OR! The Rolof family was super duper nice! Noah got his first pumpkin & it was 30lbs. So exciting! Masi had to work mandatory OT, but it’s okay we have the rest of our lives to experience family outings together!
Sunday, I slept all day to make up for the lost sleep these past couple weeks, & well that leave me to today! Masi gave me & Noah our daily kisses before work, & we fell right back to sleep! Noah woke up about 6:30a I changed & fed him & he went right back to sleep! We woke up @ 9a ate breakfast, played for a little bit & another nap! In between all this excitement I tried cleaning & doing laundry, but I slacked a little bit today! When Masi got home from work we went to Safeway to get Noah some more Baby Food & wipes! But I mean really that’s what my day consisted of! I have an amazing family & am so excited to write down all the amazing life experiences we will share together!
Until next time,
God Bless,
“THE FIO FAMILY!”
