Snow!!!

Here in Ga, we don't get a lot of snow...but this year we have (and rumor has it we will get one more blast). The kids (and me) loved it! Seriously, so much fun.

Halfway (plus a few days)

I started the Project 10 challenge in Jan and have truly loved every minute of it. My initial goal was not to lose a bunch of weight; I know that the number on the scale is not the end all be all. I just want(ed) to get some of my muscle back. I got with my good friend, Mallory and she helped me create my goal and has been an amazing support person to me over the last 49 days or so. I haven't shared much about it here, mainly b/c I am just busy being a mom, photographer, wife, chef, maid, chauffer...you know the mom stuff and my blog just gets pushed to the back burner. I decided that I did want to take some time today to talk about how this is changing not only my body but also my attitude. When I joined the challenge, I was constantly in a funk. I was not happy with anything. I was added to a private FB group....it's filled with positivity, motivation and FUN. I have helped other people start their road to a healthier version of themself and I have gotten my monthly kit for FREE. Best of all, I feel amazing...so much like myself. I'm not even on my antidepressants anymore. I'm a better mom, wife...all of it. The scale has not gone down that much and I'm ok with that. I have lost inches....and not 2 or 3 but 7 and I'm only halfway done with this 90 day challenge! I have been working out and I'm so glad that I trusted Mallory and jumped into this. It really feels great to take care of myself again.

Here's some photo proof of my inches lost. I still have a ways to go but I'm so thrilled with my progress (5lbs and 7 inches).

Time Flies

I can not believe it's been so long since I posted here. Life has been super busy and I just forget to write things down. Let's see...Tyler is 11mos old. I have no idea how he will be 1 in less than a month, but he will be. Conner has been busy playing soccer and Parker is just, well, he's Parker. Tyler isn't walking (that's fine by me), he says a few words, loves food and is overall a happy little dude. Conner is a typical first born older brother. He likes to pick on Parker and boss people around. He can be very sweet at the same time. Speaking of Conner, he started speech Jan 24. He's doing alright with it. Josh has been working...a lot. That's really nothing new. I have been busy. I can't seem to keep up with laundry and really that's more because I just hate laundry. I have been taking much better care of me. I've been drinking shakes and working out. I feel much better and am seeing some positive changes :)

Oh and today is Valentine's Day....so Happy Valentine's day...from mine to yours...
