Finally..

I finally got a good nights rest after a few long nights.  There were a few nights when I just had horrible dreams and couldn't sleep, then others when Kaitlyn just fussed all night. These damn teeth are giving her a run for her money.

Well today was pretty relaxed. I did a work out on the Wii and then played with the girls most of the day. Elizabeth learns a new words every day. Yesterday she was saying Ice Baby! Lol that's what her Uncle always says to her when he's getting ice from the machine. Today she decided she wanted to go peepee on the potty. So she's been running around naked half the day, but no pee on the potty =( Soon though. I'm not pushing cause Daddy is surprising her for a little visit tomorrow and then he leaves again on Monday, and this time he'll be gone for probably a year. So I don't want her to relapse.

Kaitlyn on the other hand is so close to crawling I can't wait! She for the first time got on all fours today. Then ploped back down. Soon though she'll be a little busy body. I hope she at least waits for Daddy tomorrow.

I had a friend do a picture in a picture of my first belly picture and one I took today, a week apart. And I'm shocked at the results! I'm so proud of myself!

That's all for now....

My weight loss journey.

Where to begin?!?

I need to loose weight, and I LOVE to eat! They go great together huh?

Yea I have about 35 pounds I need to loose by Nov 10! I was given the honor of being my little sister Matron of Honor! So I want to look my best!!

My journey is starting slowly.

I'm slowly giving up the things I love to eat and drink.

I don't drink soda anymore.

I'm drinking a ton of water now instead!

I'm walking {almost} everyday with my mom!

I do Wii Fit Daily!

Starting weight : 159

Todays weight: 154

The beginning

I decided that I want to write a "Blog a Day while Daddy's Away".
I figured it'd help keep my mind off the deployment and also an easy way to share the days happening with Daddy. So bear with me as I get things started! 


A little about me.

I'm 28 years young!
I've been married for 5 years!

I was in the Army for almost 5 years and the Reserves for almost 4!
