Getting there


As of yesterday I am proud to say that I've almost achieved my second weight loss goal. I have lost 17 pounds. I lose a little each week. Thanks to my job, I get my work out in every day. I have three more pounds to lose to reach my second goal. I'm so excited. I actually had to put more holes in my belt... that was interesting too. I feel good. I feel like I have more energy. I love it. I have come used to the new way of eating for the most part. Sometimes I want to give in. But I have to just think about how far that I have come. I think about how close I am. I think about what more I want, and I can get there.

Things are going good. Nothing is perfect, but things are good. Jason starts his new shift tonight. Now we have two incomes. I am getting a few more hours at work. Slowly but surely we'll get there. I'm hoping to have our new phones next month. Since we're no longer with Verizon thank god. I hate the thought of how much money we wasted with them. I loved the coverage, but with Jason not being on the road anymore we don't need that type of coverage. The new plan that we will probably be switching to is more for a lesser price. Our monthly bill will be way less than what we paid with Verizon. We haven't decided yet if we're going to go with them yet though.

Not a whole lot else going on. April has learned how to take her clothes off. Mostly her pjs. Every morning they're off... she's more talkative. Every day. She tries to have conversations now. It's cute. She has two teeth popping through. I wish that they would hurry up and come in. She still sleeps through the night, but she's not really taking naps anymore. She is all over the place. Either in her room playing, living room or kitchen... it doesn't matter she's everywhere. She loves her books. She'll bring them to us and wait for us to open them. Then she turns the pages one at a time. She's starting to really pay attention though to the colors, and the pictures. She's gone from saying momma to mommy a few times, and from dadda to daddy. She's dancing too. She turns around in circles and goes back and forth. She also walks backwards. She's a goofy girl. Now that Jason is working nights, I'll probably start working on her album and scrap book again. I've gotten so far behind... I need to work on her baby book also. She gets her shots in December. The doctors are so backed up that's the soonest that she can get in. I'm curious to see how tall she is now.


I think that is bout it for now.
