Better late than never!

So I have been wanting to post Kyleigh's birthday pictures up for a while, but when got them developed I left my memory card in the kiosk. Thankfully my sister Deanne put my pictures on her computer already. Thanks Deanne! Well these pictures our from our zoo adventure and Kyleigh's birthday party. Enjoy:)


I don't know when this was taken, it's just cute.

He is so excited for his sister's birthday!!


Even more excited in this one:)

This one I had put on the cake. It was from my friend's wedding in

Idaho, I might post those pictures one day.

Did you lose some weight?

So I have been feeling down on myself lately because I have been stuck at the same weight for some time now. Vacations and camping also do not help with eating good!!!! I don't know why I give myself such a hard time because I have come a long way. Todays blog is just about me. I was a fat teenager and I don't care if anyone says I wasn't, because I was! I weighed about as much in 8th grade as I did 9 months pregnant with Kyleigh. I remember boys on the bus making fun of me and calling me jiggle,jiggle. That was also part of middle school I am sure, stupid boys. In high school I started to lose weight. I went to 2 years of high school up in Idaho and 2 years in Utah. At the end of my senior year I was finally happy with my weight. Then came college and dating and EATING OUT!!! Then I met Lance and we got pregnant with Jaxon. I put on over 50 lbs with him. After I had him I tried to lose the weight, and it seemed to be coming off slowly but surely. Then we decided to try to get pregnant again. Jaxon was 9 months when I got pregnant with Kyleigh. My poor body! Well when there's a will there's a way! After I had Kyleigh I was determined to loose some weight. So I have done it! I have passed my initial goal, but have made new ones. I hope to meet them by the end of this year. I just want to take the time to brag because I have worked really hard. So I am sorry if this offends anyone. Hopefully I can give you inspiration.



As of last summer, after already having Kyleigh I have lost about 30 lbs. I like to look at the inches more then the weight though! I really don't want to sound like I am bragging, I am just being proud of myself for the moment.

I have lost; chest 5"
left arm 2 1/4 "
right arm 1 3/4"
waist 6 1/2"
hips 6 3/4"
left thigh 4 3/4"
right thigh 4 3/4"

total: 31 1/2"


Ok now here is the before and after picture. I was pregnant with Jaxon here. The other isn't the greatest picture, but I didn't want to post the same one from the other Vegas pictures. I weighed over 60 more lbs then I do now. I always am giving myself a hard time, but congrats to me! I am the smaller then I ever was in high school!

Thanks for reading!

Las Vegas Baby!!!!

So we got back from Vegas a week ago, I have just not posted anything. Suprise, suprise!! Well I have actually been reading the Twilight series books, I have become an addict. I actually plan to hurry this blog so I can finish what I have started. To anyone that has not read these books, they are so good. Well I have not finished them all yet, but I am in the middle of the third one.

Anyway, about Vegas. It was so nice to spend some time alone with my husband! He spoiled me while we were there:) It was soo much fun. We went to the Phantom, Mysteire, and KA. He wants to take me back to go and see "O" too soon. We also went on the New york, New york, and up to the top of the Eiffel Tower. There was never a dull moment. I will admit it got a little tiring walking up and down the strip, but it was fun. Lance our next vacation we are going to go to some secluded beach:) Toward the end we missed our kids like crazy and skipped our lunch planned for the Cheesecake Factory and headed home. We are so lucky to have them and so lucky to have Lance's parents that took the time off to watch the little angels. Happy anniversary Lance, 3 years!!!!!
