10 Down!

Here it is, my fat picture for all to see. I wasn't going to post this but I am just so proud of the progress I have made so far. I am still not where I want to be but seeing this just motivates me even more. I have lost 10 lbs since I started working out about 2 months ago. If I continue to loose 10 lbs every two months I will be where I want to be by May. It seems far away but this way im not putting too much pressure on myself to hurry and loose the weight. I am so grateful for a wonderful husband who stays with my babies for two hours each day while I go to the gym. I just love him.

Sydnie Jean at 18 mons

Sydnie is 18 months old. I seriously cannot believe it! I was filling out my new calender and it just blows my mind that she will turn 2 this year. I wanted to upload a video but they take FOREVER so I will just record what she is doing in words. She says cheese for me when I take a picture, most of the time. She counts to 10 all by her self. She says the abc's up to K. If you say "you" she will finish it with "are so cute!" Love it!

Sometimes she falls asleep in funny places, the other day it was her high chair because I was making her finish her sandwich.
she climbs on anything and everything.

And of course she makes PLENTY of messes. I think once you have kids your house will never stay clean for more than 2 mins at a time
And she is so loving and gives us kisses and hugs all the time, including her favorite baby sister. She loves babies and often plays mother with her doll. I caught her trying to suck the boogers out of her dolls nose with a "nose sucker" not sure what the correct name for it is haha.

Carlie's blessing

These are really late but here is Carlie in her blessing dress. I didn't get any pictures that day because it was so crazy with everyone here so I dressed her up a week later and took a few.

I just love this little half smile she has goin.
