It's Amazing...

Ella making a mess of my scrap booking stuff...

How fast my little girl is growing up. We have such a perfect schedule right now. Charley and I finally have a routine down and are enjoying being the proud parents of miss Ella. She brings so much joy to both of us. I've already scheduled her one year pics with Miranda Renner. She will be getting them done at the end of November. I'm so excited because I know they are going to turn out awesome. Hopefully I'll have lost all my weight by then so that we can have some family ones taken. I don't have much else to report. Charley got a new car on Monday. He has been driving around his dad's old truck for years. He works so hard and I'm happy that we were finally able to get a new vehicle for him. He got a 1999 Dodge Durango. Nothing too special, but it is a great family car and what's more important is that it's new to him!

Is it Sunday Night Already?!

Well, I don't have much to report this time... Nothing too exciting has gone on this past week. Oh wait, there was one thing... I met my first goal at weight watchers. That felt pretty good. I'm getting my hair done this week as a reward. Charley gets to spend the day with Ella tomorrow. He is going to take her to the park to swing and then to the duck pond to feed the ducks. He is really looking forward to that. Maybe I can get him to take the camera and snap a few pictures of their adventure.

I LOVE This Girl!!!!

Isn't she the cutest? She just makes me so happy. Sometimes I wonder how I became so blessed. I love my family with all my heart.

Happy 8 months Ella!

Well, I can't believe it, but Ella is 8 months old today!!! The time has gone by so fast even though I can't even remember what life was like without the princess in it. We had a nice and lazy day today. She accompanied Dad and I on our long run. I had no idea how she would do, but she was awesome!! She slept most of the time. Thanks to Dad for pushing her. I just hope people don't think that we are husband and wife out for a jog with our little baby. We've already had one person ask if I was his wife... That is scary! Charley just started his new work schedule and has Mondays off now, so he will be hanging out with the girl tomorrow. Hopefully they will have a good day together.

This May be a Little Narcissistic, but I'm Freakin' Excited!!!

I'm in my SKINNY jeans!!!!!!!! Here's the pics to prove it. : ) Took me almost 8 months, but I'm feeling better about myself. Still got about 15 or so more pounds to lose. Woo hoo, go me!

Labor Day Weekend

What a beautiful weekend!! We had awesome weather all three days. We took Ella to the Richardson Grove yesterday. She had so much fun. She did way better than I thought she would. She loved playing in the water. We just had to be careful with her because she kept wanting to eat the rocks! Those are definitely a choking hazard!! That was one of the best river trips that we have had. I'm happy we were able to spend the day together as a family. On Sunday I ran Dad's 10 mile run!! I was so proud of myself. I thought I wouldn't even be able to finish. Looks like I'm on my way to running a half marathon.
