Time Flies When You're Having Fun :)

It's been four months since I last posted, and a lot has happened. I quit my job, we moved (again!), Tanner completed kindergarten, and we found out we're having a baby!!! He or she will be here in December, and we are thrilled! December is our favorite month ;)Tanner's birthday is the 20th, Jackson's the 22nd, Christmas, our anniversary is the 28th, and now this sweet baby is due the 19th! It's. Going. To. Be. CRAZY!!!
I thought it would be fun to post stats from my pregnancy. I am really bad about writing things down, so we'll see how long this lasts. But, I'll try to do weekly updates.

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 14 weeks
Size of baby: 3.4 inches long and about 1.5 ounces-the size of a lemon
Maternity Clothes: I wear a lot of dresses because they're comfortable, t-shirts, athletic shorts and all maternity jeans, capris, and pants.
Gender: Don't know...not sure if we will find out this time.
Movement: I've felt some movement.
Sleep: I have a bad cough right now, so it's making it difficult to sleep. I don't fall asleep until at least midnight.
Symptoms: Not feeling nauseous anymore!!
What I miss: Feeling good
Cravings: Frosting...sometimes with cake!
Best Moment this week: Lack of nausea
What I am looking forward to: Feeling more movement

No Diet Here

I have not started my diet yet. My goodies are ordered, but they haven't made it to my house. So I figure to get the most out of my diet, I should go on a major eating binge first.

Exhibit A
This is what is left of the cake baked yesterday. Yes, I ate most of it myself. Yes, I'm eating it directly out of the cake pan.

J and T bowling



Celebrating a victory!

This little dude cracks me up!!

Living it up

We have been stuck at home for the past three days due to the weather conditions. I hate to say this, but I LOVE IT!! I haven't been that productive, but I have enjoyed listening to my boys play together (and fight!), hanging out with my husband, competing against each other on the Wii, snuggling together watching movies, reading books, and I even managed to grade a few papers!

Lack of Willpower

I'm trying to re-vamp my blog, and as I'm changing it up a bit I am laughing at my profile (which I wrote about 3 years ago)! It says that I love working out (which I do!), but I don't remember the last time I worked out! One of the last posts I wrote before my year-long blogging hiatus was about wanting to lose weight. I thought it would be a great idea to keep an on-line diary of my weight loss, but guess what?! I lost all willpower...I didn't blog, and I didn't lose weight! I believe in second chances, though, so I'm going to try it again. Starting at the end of January. Ha! I know I should put up the Golden Oreos and chocolate ice cream now, but I don't like to waste food and my weight loss products (protein shakes, detox tea, and fizzing beverage tablets) won't be here until the 30th. Sounds amazing, doesn't it?! I'm hoping to look like a movie star after 3 weeks! Isn't that how they do it? ;)

Playdate




My bestie and her two daughters joined us for a playdate today. The kiddos played and played, ate Mac and Cheese, watched a movie, and played some more. Tara and I talked and talked, ate Mac and Cheese, watched the end of a basketball game, and talked some more. It was so great! We've been best friends for over 10 years now! Ten years!! We had just started college when we first met...now our kids are friends, and it is the sweetest thing!
