Sorry, The top two are sideways they didnt rotate :(

Addy's Nine Months Old!

The 23rd of Feb. Addyson turned nine months old. She is almost walking, still a little scared. She is the little Princess that is for sure. She knows what she wants, when she wants it, but she has another thing coming. I love her to pieces. She melts my heart when she hugs us and gives us kisses!

Snow Storm on the Island!

We got a snow storm this week on the little Island we live on. We got about nine inches according to the news, but it seemed like a foot to me! (Shows how well I measure things) Josh got the day off because base was closed. We made a snowman with Addyson being held by one of use because she HATES the snow. She looks at it and cries! She wants nothing to do with it. We also got some pictures since it was her "first big snow storm" I just love her to pieces. Not to forget she is NINE months old that day we get it (2/23) HAPPY NINE MONTHS BABY GIRL! Happy Snow!

Diet.

I've almost lost five lbs. It's been tough to shed them lbs. since I am just working out at home and not doing a full hour of workingout. We got a snow storm so it's been taking away from my walking outside. I was going to go to the gym today but Addyson didn't take a nap today all but thirty minutes. So I went on a short walk, did some cardio inside, and strength. I have 17lbs more to lose to get to where I was before I was prego. And 30lbs until I am at the weight I would like to be. THIRTY! I'm going to die. I am getting sick of eatting so healthy, I guess I'll get use to it.

:( depressing

So for now on I will only blog one week about dieting. I didn't lose a lb. this week! How depressing is that?! I have been working out and what not and I guess I'll be going to the gym? Or something. I'm just a little upset. Now I have a scale in my house and I'm going to be constantly on it. :( boo for fat.

I love this song. This is a good way to express that we're all the same :) in a way...

Addyson Walking Soon?

Addyson is now climbing all over the place. She is always standing up along the couch, t.v. stand, or anything she can stand up on. Yesterday she took her little car thing that turns into a walker, but it was in a car position and she was just walking along and pushing it. I love her she is so stinking cute! I can't believe she knows all these things and is getting so big. She is now being very brave and sliding off the couch, but she tries to pull herself up on it but she is a weak in that department. She giggles and smiles big when I tell her no and (basically tab) smack her hand, she just thinks its funny. Yesterday she also called people on my cellphone, my grandparents where the ones on the other line thank goodness, and got a big kick out of their great-grand daughter. I am excited to go home and see them, but sometimes I just don't want to face all the other things there, for example, my sister. Her boyfriend is out hiding and she is back up with my parents. She is upset that he just ditched her and is more than likely thinking about himself. She comes and goes from my parents house as she pleases. I wish I could talk to her but oh well. I dont even know what to do there, I'm just happy Addyson is happy and healthy and she has NO IDEA whats going on.

Day Four (SP; Yesterday)

I am still at it. I didnt work out though, I was just to exhausted. I slept and hung out with Ashely while the boys talked trucks.

Day Three; SP

Today was the HARDEST day of this diet. I wanted chocolate baddddd! I ate pretty well, I just wish I could eat what I want and not worry about calories, but don't we all. :) I worked out this time before Josh got home, last night I did it while we watched House but I hate working out in front of him, he always tells me what to do. So I did it before he came home. I think tomorrow will be harder than today.

I love this....

.... my new DYSON vacuum so very much! I never thought I would actually buy a four hundred dollar vacuum but it is so worth it. After Josh got it put together we took our old vacuum and did a small area and then took the big bad DYSON and ran over the same area and it was picking up so much. I am in love with it, maybe more than Josh ;) ... I've sucked so much stuff up with this, and I can reach my ceiling, and we have a tall ceiling. We dump the junk we get off the floor after each cleaning that way it stays fresh! If I am paying 100's of dollars for something, it's worth keeping it nice, right? Every woman and a few men we have talked to about this vacuum said it has lasted them a long time. If I were to by another Bissel I'd be buying one every year or couple and I can't afford that. My mom is probably reading this thinking I am crazy for spending that much, but when you have money might as well buy something that you love and will last. :)

New Table.

- after weeks of trying to find one that fits into our life, I say our decision was wonderful! I love our table. Even if it's not the one with cute chairs and marble top but let's face it, that wasn't use. We're country family, not a real big "city" family, Addyson love this table too, I used it for a changing table today, ahaha, and she rolled all over, yes, I did sanitize it afterwards :)!

Diet Pictures :\ As of Day Three of this Sp diet.

ughhhh.

- there's a little difference.
- but i still feel huge.


- trying to see if a t-shirt would
make my stomach smaller - not!

- gross, love handles & thunder thighs!

Day Two; SP

Today I barely ate because I was so busy. I went grocery shopping for some healthy food, and then cleaned the bathrooms and the junk called mildew around my windows (thanks forest city youre the best!) but I did do alright with eating once I actually ate. I think this diet could help me by making me drink more water because I am suppose to anyways. I didn't work out but tomorrow is strength day and my 28 boot caamp challenge is going down the drain i'll probably try and do stuff right after I post this. :) I'm tryin.. the third day is always the hardest!

Day One; SP Diet

Day One;
I about died. Not on the work outs, but on the drinking eight glasses of water. I can't believe how much water I dont drink. I thought I was ok. But EIGHT I had to choke them down. I love sparkpeople.com its a good site, lots of ideas, and love the work outs, I worked up a good sweat. I think Addyson enjoyed watching me dance (aka work out) around. She also loved when I stretched and counted to her. It wasn't bad, we'll see how I am tomorrow. I think I'm going to go buy me a scale. As much as I HATE them in my house. :)

Happy Valentine's Day - Addyson's first!

Happy Valentine's Day! Today is Addyson's first Valentines. She woke up at 5:30 am she was so excited! :) We did our valentine's the night before because Josh had to work Monday plus we were putting together our new table. We got Addyson a pink elephant with heart shaped ears, a rose, and a balloon. She loves the balloon more than anything and wants to eat the flower. She gives her elephant a squeeze now and then. I got a giant bear and three pink roses and a box of chocolates and I got Josh a new fossil watch. We had a good day. I am glad we got to spend it as a family.

SPARK PEOPLE; New Diet

So I've been trying to lose weight and its been so hard because I can't get enough motivation. My mom wants to lose weight too, and I can't afford all the weight watcher fees, or I would do that. My mom introduced me to "sparkpeople" its a website designed to motivate and help you lose weight. My mom is my "Spark Buddy." We start tomorrow. I'm nervous but I need to be happy with myself and to stop saying I'm fat in front of my daughter, I don't want her to be a year old and saying she hates her body and she's fat. That's not fair and not cool! So here's to a new beginning to my new year's resolution.

do i look "that" young?

Josh, Addyson, and I all went to the Mall last Friday to do some shopping & get Addyson's ears done. We ended up eating lunch/dinner at the Mall because I really didn't feel like going to find a resturant and Josh was starving. We ended up getting something at this little Pizza stand. Josh made me go up there and get order and wait for our food while he stays at the table with our stuff.

the guy; hello, how are you doing?
Me; I'm doing fine, thanks.
the guy; thats good.
Me; I told him what I wanted
the guy; you want both?
Me; Yes. I'll take them both.
the guy; ok, I'll heat them up for you. Will you stay here and keep me company, hun?
Me; (what the heck, why is he calling me hun - in my mind) ok?
the guy; are you having a good day?
Me; Yes, I am
the guy; while he is getting my drink..... Good, you deserve to have one
Me; ok...
the guy; it will be 12 dollars.
Me; I hand him my debit card & my card has a picture of my little family (josh addy and me)
the guy; took my card and looked at it for my number and was like; is this you???
Me; Yea, and my husband and daughter.
the guy; what thats your daughter & husband how old are you?
Me; I am almost 21.
the guy; oh ok, then. You have a cute family.
Me; thanks, they are right over there, pointing at them... my husband is in the Navy. :)
the guy; oh ok, in the Navy, oh ok, well i can't wait to start my family but first I have to find a girl...
Me; yeah, it changes your life.. goodbye! haha.

I told Josh this conversation and he is like stop smiling he thought you were 16! I'm like it was so awkward, he kept calling me hun (i forgot spots in there where he would say it..) It was just crazy, lets just say I'm scared to go back and get a slice of pizza. For now on, Josh is ordering and paying for our meals!

i love my new bed set

This isn't from Macys, and it wasn't a $300.00 set, but it was from Wal-Mart & I love it! I think its just what I like. It took us months and months to find out we both really liked. I even got to pick out the mini pillow to go with. Josh wanted me to post these because he's proud that he picked something out that we both liked.

Addy's first TOOTH!

Addyson's tooth! I finally got a picture of it on my cellphone today. I just love her little tooth!

break down and cry.

I love my little girl so much and it breaks my heart that she is so sick. Her lungs sound as if they are just filled with a load of mucus. I tried to get her into see her dr. but I just call the Tri-Care line and they really suck. They said it would be two weeks & I should just go to Urgent Care. I don't like the drs. at U.C. so I rather not unless I feel like its a must. Ashley told me to call my drs. nurses like she does but I don't know the number. I wish she'd just get better already. I can't deal with anymore stress in my life. My sister finally talked to me, I just want her to be happy, and I can't say if she is with her boyfriend, she is feeling crummy, and I just want to go give her a big sister hug and kiss her head and snuggle, I miss her so much. I wish I didn't live so far on the west coast. My mom is so worried about her. Everyone is. I just wish she'd see that but right now I know she needs some rest and hopefully her dumb boyfriend isn't making her go places. Who really knows. I'm just really upset. I just want everyone to be happy, but you can't be a people pleaser, it isn't easy. I just want to go home and see if everything is alright these last months will fly by but slowly to me :(

not a word.

I've tried to hear my sisters voice since I found out, She hasn't returned my calls, and yesterday she had to go to the drs. to get cleaned up. I wish I was there. It angers me that no one was with her that could have been, if I was only two hours from home I'd be there in a heart beat, but with one vehicle at the moment (since Josh hasn't fixed the jeep) I can't be there. Her boyfriends grandma said she seems ok, but I am so worried. I just wish school could keep her mind off this, but her boyfriend probably would distract her even more than he already has. Why does "love" blind people so bad? And why do people give up so easily? I hope I never give up on Addyson, no matter what her choices are, I want to be strong.

Sara Evans - A Little Bit Stronger

sorry I'm not there..

As days go by without you here
I'm sorry sister I'm not there.
My heart is there with you
and my arms are squeezing you tight.
I want to take away all your pain
and tell you its gonna be alright.
by; me

My little brother wrote me and my mom tried calling to tell me my sister lost her baby Thursday night. She was four months along, we have no idea what could have happened, but it had to be all in God's hands and he must have had a reason. She hasn't talked to any of my family about anything. I can't stop crying, I called her last night and waited for hours for her to call but she never did, I fell asleep waiting. I talked to many people most of her boyfriends family. If the baby doesn't pass through naturally they have to go back on Sunday. I am mad at the doctor for not taking care of my sister better, just letting her walk around with her dead baby inside her and be in pain. I want to drive home right now, but I know I can't. I'm so miserable. I love her so much and I hope she knows that. I feel terrible that we got in a little fight the other day. I wish I never put any stress on her about moving back home where its safe, I wish I just gave her more space than I already did. I'm just going to wait for to call me, that way I am not bothering her but I am so scared and worried.

New Highchair & New Clothes.

I had to get a new highchair the one I picked up from a Navy house that was free is HORRIBLE! No wonder it was free. I always bang things off the legs, its so bulky and takes up all the room in our house. I am so glad to say BYE to that sucker! We got her a cute new one that comes with an extra seat cover w/ poka dots (right now its pink & brown). Addyson LOVES it. She already spilt her bottle on it. With one push of a button it is as slim as a piece of paper, It's going to save my life, I think its benefitting me more than her. I JUST LOVE IT! Yesterday was also our first trip to costco with our new membership (thanks to Josh's grandma for putting us on it w/o telling us we were until she already did it). We got a big thing of diapers, we are set for at least a month and wipes for at least two! I'm so excited. Addyson got tons of new clothes yesterday I won't say how much I spent but it was a lot. She got new outfits for summer, and new jammers, and new slippers! She is one spoiled baby and it shows. Now I have to go take care of my sick daughter, she has a nasty cold, her nose is gross, I'm just tired of everyone being sick, Josh is worse than Addyson.
