Okay, so obviously it is the same old me or I would have updated a long time ago. Sometimes new years come in with a bang, but this year has just kind of snuck in quietly. Aaron was working on New Year's morning, so he went to bed early on New Year's Eve. I stayed up doing random things around the house, just to say I "rang in" the New Year. I gave Aaron a kiss, looked in on my sweet sleeping boy and then hit the hay myself. Exciting, right?
Well, not really, but it was perfect if you ask me. Anywho, since I know Landon with his adorable face is probably the only reason anyone reads this blog anyway, I'll deliver, with pictures and video! (You can thank me with a comment hehe).

"Awake" and ready for daycare. Poor kiddo was still sleepy! |

| Took this picture with the Instagram App on my iPhone. One of my most favorite pictures of him! |

| Just in case you missed this one on FaceBook - This boy can put down some donuts! (also taken with the Instagram App) He was NOT a happy camper. I had to walk backwards in a circle the whole time he was on this thing. Note to self: Don't wear flip flops to Chuck E. Cheese. Wheeeee! At least he isn't scared of the slide! Yummy for my tummy. Yes, that is a corn dog. He LOVES them. And he will EAT them. 'Nuff said. |
Buzz!
So... now that you've had your fix of Landon... guess what?! I've lost weight! (Okay, don't get too excited yet...) I refuse to tell my starting weight just yet, cause I am still mortifiied and not comfortable sharing it. Just know that it is too much. I am working on counting calories (I suck at it) and just having more self control when it comes to eating sweets. I think I got more than one sweet tooth when they were handing them out. Anyway... I've lost (drumroll please) 8lbs so far. It's been about 3-4 months, but I would lose 2 lbs, gain it back... lose 3 lbs, gain 2 back, lose another 2, gain 1...so yeah. It is slow going...but I'm "winning" the war on fat. :) My clothes are getting loose already, and now that I will have fitness release time from work (2 hours a week, woohoo!) I'll have no excuse for not getting at least a little bit of exercise in!
I'm not drinking caffeine -- and also no carbonation. In fact about 90% of the time, I am just drinking water. I don't even miss coke (and by coke, I mean Dr. Pepper). I do have an occasional glass of juice with dinner, and I do love a nice tall glass of skim milk every now and then. So maybe I am a little bit of a "New Me." -- I'm just not quite the new me I wanna be yet.
In other news -- planning a trip to Vegas!! So excited, and can't wait to share pictures (although, with my track record and sharing pictures in a timely manner.... we all know how that goes)! Anywho... that's all for now. I'll be back... soon-ish. :) Oh, and have a Spectacular 2012!!!
