What a Difference a Year Makes...

One year ago today...there we were in paradise. Would be nice to be somewhere like the Caribbean on a crazy snow day like today. So much has changed since then...who knows when we'll be able to take a fun vacation like that again. Fun memories though!

Check out Sarah's blog for some cute pictures of Easton. Shana was kind enough to take some the other day as well. I will post those when I get them.
*Fat Camp Update: 1 lb, yes just ONE pound lost for a week of starving. Grrrrr. I better get better results next week.

Fat Camp!

Thats what my sister in law, Chantel, calls it anyway. Ha haha I love it. I am now a member of Weight Watchers! Yeah baby. I'm so glad I can go with Shana and Chantel...it gives me so much more motivation. They already look awesome, I don't even know why they are going. Holy crap I have to lose 17 lbs to start off. Ouch. I'm really excited about it though, I've done it for...well only three days now, but I think I can handle it! Baby weight be gone!
As for another New Year's resolution...I want to be organized. I went with my mom to her enrichment night where they had a professional organizer speak. Inspirational? Yes. Make me feel like a slacker? Yes. She was talking about how there should be NO shoes on your closet floor. She was like...you really aren't going to pick them all up to vacuum under them. Lets get real. Do I vacuum the closet? Apparently now I will. Do you guys vacuum your closets? Anyway, I really admire those women who seem to have it all together all the time. I'll at least try to become better!

House. Mess. Log.

Our little home. Trying to make it feel more like home than a house. I thought I had lots of cute decorations...guess it was lots for a one bedroom apartment that was more the size of a closet. So now we have more of an empty house. All in good time I suppose. We are just happy to be there!

Sigh. So I find Randon dumping a bag of my clothes on the floor. He explains he is just helping unpack. So sweet...I'm finding that my clothes are overwhelming to unpack. Mainly because I need to throw so much away. So I start and pick something up. Well I never wear it...but it would be PERFECT if I was invited to a campfire...on the beach...and it was raining...and I was 10 lbs lighter. Everyone in their right mind would know to NEVER throw this away. And so I eventually end back at square one with bags of old clothes that I never wear.


Many of you have heard about the log but have yet to see it. Well here it is. Our house was a spec home so by the time we found the house and liked it, it was finished, log and all. Isn't it just beautiful? Does it match the rest of the house? Nope. Just a random log on the wall. Maybe we are supposed to put branches in it with little birds and all. Bring the outdoors in, you know? Hey, why not just chop little pieces off for firewood? Very handy. Wait... gas fireplace. Oh well.

I hope we aren't raising a male stripper...

I just about died hearing Easton laugh for the first time. For some reason, when I take his shirt off he just cracks up! No one else was ever around so I tried to catch it on my camera phone...now there is proof! Even though you can't really see cause its on night mode or something...you can still hear. I love it! My mom thinks he might be a stripper if he is so happy when I'm takin his clothes off... he doesn't laugh any other time when I tickle him or anything. Hahaha. He is getting so big I can't believe it. He loves to be right in the action and wants attention all the time. And....drum roll...he is sleeping through the night!!!! (Knock on wood.) Its truly a beautiful thing.

WE'RE IN!!

Hallelujah! We have actually moved in! It finally funded and we were able to move last Saturday. Randon had to work so I was thinking we wouldn't be moving, but I went outside and my dad had both trucks loaded up. Hmmm...somebody was excited for us to move out! :) Not really... thanks dad for your help! Everything is still a disaster. Slowly making my way out of the mess. Pictures to come soon...

A Late Merry Christmas

We had a great Christmas! It was so fun being Santa for Easton...even though he could care less. I'm really excited for next year to make some of our own family traditions. Everything was laid back and relaxed this year. My brother got the Wii, we had fun playing that all day. (Knocked Randon out boxing. Two for two. Yeah baby!) Workin on those genius skills...
