Update...

Well I believe it has been 3 weeks now since I announced my weight loss plan. I said I would post a picture so here it is!! I always feel so funny just standing by myself, but at least I can watch my body change!

4 POUNDS SO FAR!!!

I am glad that something is working and I know it will only get better! It is really a challenging process because you want so bad for it to go quickly, but it can't and it won't. I know that if I just keep pushing through I will be so happy and feel so good!

Thank you to everyone! You have all been so supportive and helpful! I love all the tips I have been given!!

I will keep you posted!

Halloween Party! #2

Hannah loved walking along the table with her uncle Derek! We love how she would lift her one knee up so high!!

Halloween Party!

The cutest lamb you'll ever see!!

I had fun making Hannah's costume this year although she only wore it for about 5 min! She was so cute, just look at those ears!!

Hannah and Chris chillin! Chris is Batman!

Our family photo! How boring was I...just an 80's girl!

The brothers! Chris as Batman, Derek as I think a Flash/Robber Man, and Ryan as the character from Fight Club.

Lu Anne and Gary! Gary had lots of fun scaring all the little Kids!!

Hannah loves her cousins. She just talked and smiled at Natalie the whole time she held her!

Hannah discovered the Piano! Kretha let her pound away on the keys and Hannah smiled and sang along!

Yummy Carrots!

Yesterday we decided to let Hannah try some new food! She got to try Carrots for the first time. This face was so funny for the first few bites! She did eat for a bit, but wasn't very enthusiastic about it. Today was a different story! I couldn't feed her fast enough! She just loved her new food!! Hopefully she won't be a picky eater!

Carrots go everywhere!!

5 months already!!

I can't believe she is 5 months old!!

She is getting close to rolling over more now.

She is starting to sit up on her own as well. Not completely, but very close!

Always smiling and thinks I am funny!!!

Admitting Defeat

I have a story and I need help.

Obviously I just had a baby and that is the biggest reason for my issue but I have struggled with self determination my whole life! I am talking about my weight and how it has slowly gotten a little more out of control than I like. What I decided was to just eat as much chocolate as I possibly can and be happy...Just Kidding! I decided that I need help and I think what can help me out is if I blog! In my mind what I need to for others to know that I am trying. I think if I can blog and show my progress it will help me to see what I can do and how much I really am accomplishing. Plus it will give me a really good reason to keep up with it, because if I don't the blogging world will know about it and I will look stupid and lazy! So I am forcing myself to stick to it this time and even if you don't care, this will help me out!

My Plan:

I will post a picture of myself starting out and then once a week or month to show any progress I am making.

I will post the exercises I do each day and any other details to my dieting plan.

I will be on the weight watchers diet, since it has helped me before and I know I can stick to it!

I have never been good at being healthy! I am not a good exercise person, but I long to be. I know this is a life change I need to make and I am willing to begin now! Please let me know if you have any ideas that have worked for you or have any motivation for me! I know I can do this and I know it will take some time! I can do it so watch out...here I come!

Rice Cereal, Quilting and more!

Hannah has had her first taste of rice cereal! The first feeding as you will see here she didn't really understand what I was doing, but she now loved to eat! In the video you will also get to see Chris's lunch and yes our plant Wilford is on a pizza box! Nice huh? This video was about 2 weeks ago. Sorry it took so long to post...it's kinda long as well.

See this is proof that Hannah likes her cereal now!

These next 2 pictures are dedicated to Karen K. I don't know if she will see, but I saw the quilt she started making on her blog and I loved it. So i created my own pattern and started one myself. I want to make it a larger quilt so I still have a lot of squares to cut out but it really hasn't taken long. It's been nice to have a project again!

Hannah and I have been walking Chris to school each morning. We only live 2 blocks from his first class so it's only a 10 min walk! It's nice to get out and get a walk in everyday. So here is Hannah in her pink fluffy coat!

Hannah and her daddy!
