It's a new year!

I love new years it is so refreshing you never know what it going to happen. you can start fresh, I know you can do that any time, but the new year is a good time sit and reflect on what has happen the past year and set new goals the next year. I am a big new years resolution type of person and I love to look at the one's from the year before to see all that I have accomplished. Now this last year I didn't accomplish everything, but I also didn't expect to find out I was pregnant 7 days into the year.
I am excited for this new year, my number one goal is the same as most of the nation out there it is to lose weight I set the goal two years ago and lost 50lbs and I know I can do it again. I hope to do even better than that sense it took me a few months to figure out how to do it last time.
I want all my pregnancy weight off by the first of June. It took me nine months to put it on I am going to allow myself nine months to take it off. that will take me down to 190lbs, the same as when I was in high school, I know it is still alot, but I was never skinny in high school, my ultimate goal is to be around 150lbs. I would love to be at that weight by my 10 year high school reunion this year, but I don't think that is realistic. It would be cool seeing everyone faces walking into the reunion thinner than any of them have ever seen me. Oh well what matters is that I get there and stay there and be healthy.

Merry Christmas

time to update

okay sorry I am such a slacker on keeping up on my Blog posts. Here is whats been going on in our Family the last few months.

In October we went to Pumpkin land in vineyard. They have a corn maze, blow up toys, playground animals and other fun things. it is pretty cheap and more for the younger crowd. We also bought our pumpkins there. It was a lot of fun.

We carved our pumpkins Halloween morning we were a little behind this year.

Every year we go all out on costumes mainly because Rob's work has a big contest. Well this yearwe didn't have time to make costumes, but my Mom lent us some she made last year for her and my Dad. we still ranked the same as other years. Thanks Mom!
(We got honourable mention which is $100 prize)

Brig got Blessed on November 1st. We had alot of family come. It was a nice event.


This is just a cute picture of Brig. I love his left ear the sticks out, I just hope it starts to lay flat before he gets to old. It started out completely folded over.


This is just another cute picture of Brig.

My babies

My little boy Dean will be three on Monday. I can't believe he is already going to be three. Maybe it is because the new baby coming, but I have found myself thinking alot about when Dean was born. I called him my miracle baby. It seemed like every step of the way was a trial. First I couldn't get pregnant, but then with some drugs that happened, then i was really sick the entire pregnancy, then he came five weeks early and was in the NICU for two and a hafe weeks. I'm so thankful that that was the end of the trials. He is so healthy now and growing up so fast. I love him so much and want to wish him a happy third birthday.

The reason I'm taking time today to wish him happy birthday is because I'll be having my baby in the next day or two. I went to the doctor's today and they wanted me to go to the hospital to have my baby because i have mild preclampsia. I asked to wait 24 hours, because I didn't want to miss my grandmothers funeral tomarrow morning. He agreed as long as I stay in bed other than the funeral. So I will be going into the hospital sometime tomarrow after the funeral. I'm very excited, nervous and scared. All the normal feelings of having a baby. I'll post pictures as soon as possible.
