How We Found Out The Sex Of Our 2nd Child

Pinterest help to say the least. 
I had my ultrasound on a thursday the ultrasound tech called our photographer(who happens to be a friend too) a left him a voicemail telling him what the sex was.After we were gone of course. Mean while we had to wait till saturday to find out ourselves.
I made the box myself. I got a large box from walmart and since it had some print on the outside i had to get crafting/art paper to wrap around out and cut to size. I cut out 2 black hearts and pained boy? in blue and girl? in pink on them before gluing them on then i used the same pink and blue paint to paint the ? all over it.
These are the pics from that shoot.






Me listening to the voicemail the ultrasound tech left.

Stay At Home Mommy Everyday Struggles

Ill start by giving my background a bit. I was raised by a young single mother, who worked hard to provide for me. I was in daycare so i did activities and socialized that way.
So now as a stay at home mom i am struggling with fun, social, and educational things to do on a daily basis. You know some kind of schedule maybe not daily but a weekly thing. 
Im struggling because i learn mostly by someone showing me and being hands on. So since that hasn't been a big part of my life I'm at a lose. Doing something i wasn't taught is hard for me. I don't have a strong education background. I have learning disorders and never like learning or school for that matter. So I'm trying to be a schedule and education person but i suck at it. 
I don't want her to go and get it from someone else i wanna provide fun, social, and educational things and activities to do. Im here mom i want too!
My child is starting to act out and not listen and i know she needs more or a daily schedule besides a good sleep schedule we have going.
I fell alone where i live, my hometown(where most of my friends are) is 30 minutes away from my home. My church is also the same distance.
Im on mommy island. And during this winter i have gone stir crazy being in the house for several days at a time. 
Hopping to find a solution and sanity as well.
