Beachbody

If you've been following my sporadic blog posts you know that I've been on a serious weight loss journey this year.  I'm happy to report that I am only 11 pounds away from my goal weight.  This makes me very happy and very excited! I was doing a lot of cardio, mostly jogging, and some Jillian and free online videos.  I was also watching my calorie intake and trying to eat healthier.  My biggest issue is my belly and that has been slowly going away.

They also got him this really awesome burlap print.  My husband used to hunt a lot.  He would go every day he could and would even go for weekend trips.  Since we had kids, his hunting has gone WAY down!  He really hardly goes at all  so this is perfect for him! I also got him a few cigars.  You know, to celebrate being a father!  Ashlyn picked him out a pretty ridiculous tshirt, some beef jerky and a box of gummies that she like because they had a m

Ten Months

The basics? Diapers - Size 4 but using cloth more and more Clothing - 12-18 month Food - Everything and anything!  Eating more regular foods every day. Sleeping - Through the night! Teeth - Eight chompers with the possibility of one or two more Words - ba ba, da da, ma ma Favorite toy - Activity cube, anything he's not supposed to play with Well since I just posted his 9 month update, I'll make this one a little shorter. Not much has changed with this little guy.  He's still wearing 12-18 month clothing.  He's still wearing size 4 diapers and I'm still transitioning to cloth.  He's been eating well, as usual.  He's still sleeping really well.  Naps depend on the day.  Sometimes he takes two shorter naps and sometimes he takes one long one. He still loves bath time and has been loving all of the time we've been spending in the pool.  He loves to splash.  He's a speed crawler and has been pulling up on everything he can.  He will walk if
