Random weight loss pics....
















So, I wanted to post an update on my weight loss. I am down just about 93-94 lbs since October. It HAS been a rough few months personally for me (many of you are aware) so I have not been as strict as I should be. However, the weight is still coming off nicely. The pics are in reverse order----the first pic is me from the other day (don't mind the messy hair-I had just taken it out of a ponytail and this was AFTER being in the hot parade all day!), the yellow shirt is from January, blue shirt from December, and the green shirt ones from the babies' party is from November..........I can sooooo tell a difference, can't you??! :)

Silly faces!!! :)











We were trying to decide who could be sillier???? What do you think? LOL :)

Nick's Loose Tooth!




Finally, my six year old boy has ONE loose tooth! He is so super excited-he is about the last one in his class to have a tooth fall out............tonight he was trying to decide if he should use tweezers to get the tooth out OR bite into a frozen cupcake to get it out (that's how Lexi lost her first tooth!) Decisions, decisions.................BTW, it is the bottom middle tooth on the right that is loose.......... :)

Mother's Day 2009




I was able to spend a beautiful Mother's Day with my children. Many of you know, the past few weeks have been very rough on our family. I wasn't quite sure if I was ready to "deal" with Mother's Day this year, especially with all the new knowledge I've been dealing with. However, I must say, this may have been one of the best Mom's Day I had in my life. It started out with Lexi and Nick allowing me to sleep in; they both took care of the babies! And when I was awoken, it was to breakfast in bed!!!! Talk about a nice treat!! Lexi made delicious scrambled eggs with cheese (and ketchup! for me).........and Nick helped out by giving me three cookies (yes, for breakfast!) LOL.......We ended up going to the local Azalea Festival, and I had a GREAT time........The babies did well, Nick had his face painted, and I even bought myself a beautiful flower pot to hang in front of the house...........I know that I am so thankful for ALL of my beautiful children. Thank you kiddos for making me a Mommy! :) I LOVE YOU! :) :) :) :) :) :)
