Working out

Yes I have started. So I have been known, in the past, to run and work out and quit after a short while due to "its too cold outside to run" or "im just too tired". Well people not this time, i made a commitment. Not just a commitment to myself but one to the Gym. I paid for 2 years at 24 hr. fitness, which will force me to use it. I also have this wonderful friend who was a personal trainer for a while that comes with me and kicks my butt. Yesterday was day two and I think if I let you all in on this it will also help me keep going to reach my goal. The following will go against what woman are known to do, which is not tell anyone your weight or lie about it. My starting weight is 144lbs, I really want to get down to 115lbs, this is my high school weight. I am 5'3 so I think its what I should be. This will not happen quickly or easily as I am already feeling throughout my whole body right now. I just hope by summer time I will be oozing with confidence in a bathing suit.

A few fun photos

here are some pictures I took recently. Why is it so hard to get good pictures of your own kids when you are a photographer? Carlie didnt cooperate very long so these are the only two good ones I got, I guess I will have to try again soon.

Sydnie being cute
Carlie's first bath, she seemed very content in the nice warm water
so cute when she is sleeping

Pumpkins and halloween

We went to the pumpkin patch, went through the corn maze and picked out a couple pumkins, then went home and carved them with some friends. We had fun and Sydnie wanted to take home all the pumpkins.

this looks really funny, I couldnt really position her very well on that hay, but I thought people would want to see her anyway haha






we have been watching all the old seasons of the office that we haven't seen so Greg had it fresh in his mind I guess
The Flintstones

She is Dino even though he is a boy, oh well haha
