2010 so far...

First month of 2010 is down! It was actually a pretty busy month and it went by too quick! Sooo many bdays are in January... Lance's dad, Connor's, mine, my niece Maddie's and now we have new niece born on January 29th!

Connor and his cupcake!!!

I am still on my diet and so far I have lost 12 pounds! It would be more however when Lance is home I tend to cheat more cause he eats delicious food so I gain some back and then have to spend more time working that off! Uggghhhh diets are frustrating! I wish is was as easy to get the weight off as it was to put it on!!!

Connor is obsessed and I am not just talking a little... he is full blown obsessed with Hungry Hungry Hippos... Aidan got it for Christmas and Connor loves the game! He could seriously pay the game all day if we let him. Oh and if you sit down to play with him forget going to do something else he will get up and drag you back to it to play. I thought he would have lost all the marbles that go to it. However Connor likes everything to be in order so we haven't lost one.

I went with my sister Rachel to David's Bridal to pick out her wedding dress cause she is getting married in May. Can I just tell you how lame that place is.... we were there from 11:00am until a little after 3 I think. Rachel found a dress though and it will look wonderful on her special day.

We have been going to church lately, not as often as we should but we have decided that we should become active again. I know that we will probably lose friends over this decision and many will not understand why we want to. Whatever friends we lose because of the situation weren't really friends anyway. At the end of the day it comes down to Lance, myself and our kids and that is who matters to me. I haven't been able to find my scriptures that I had when I was a teenager so today I went and bought myself a new set. I never knew how expensive they were!!!

Yesterday marked the fourth year since Lance and I met. It seems really insane that it has only been four years. I feel like I have known Lance all my life, and the time before him seems really I don't want to say incomplete cause I did have Aidan, but as corny as it sounds Lance does make me whole. In March we will have been married for three years, and we are planning on taking a trip to Vegas to have a vacation. We got married in Vegas and thought it would be nice to go back and have a trip down memory lane... Without the money loss hahaha

Rowan turned FIVE months on February 2nd!!! I can't believe it has already been five months! He is getting so big and he is such a momma's boy! I get such joy just looking at his big goofy grin he give me whenever he sees me. There is nothing like the unconditional love from your children. We bought him a highchair over the weekend and I took some pictures of him in it.

He looks like he is going to cry!!!

But he actually loves it!

That is pretty much what has been new with us... Pretty boring but it is life to us and we love it!

New Year!

I am actually pretty excited to start off this new year. There are so many things that I wish to accomplish in the next year. First I would like to finally lose this 'baby weight' I have been carrying around for a while now. Which I am going to start to do tomorrow so wish me luck! I told Lance that I want to actually do more stuff with the boys this year, like camping, fishing, going to the park, just family stuff... maybe a picnic???? There are also some more personal goals that Lance and I have set for us as a couple that is kind of at a private level right now. But when we are more confident about it I will share!

Christmas was great!!! Aidan, Connor, and Rowan got a decent amount of presents from 'Santa' and then presents from everyone else too. Lance's parents got Aidan and Connor bikes for Christmas which came with a little bit of hurt feelings from Lance. He feels like it is his job as a father to get his boys their very first bike. However can't take back a gift! That would be so crushing to the little guys. Connor is still too small for his bike, so maybe Lance and I will get some bikes and we will go for bike rides with Connor and Rowan in tow.

My little Connor turns 2 on Saturday, which is crazy!!! He is sooooo funny, has such a devious personality. I can't believe he has already blessed our life for 2 years!!! Rowan just turned 4 months a few days ago, wow the time just seems to go by faster and faster! Aidan will be 5 this year and going to school in the fall! I am worried about him though, I haven't put him into any sort of preschool and I feel like he will be behind. However my sister in law Lindsey seems to think he will be fine (she is a school teacher). I am also worried about stupid silly things, like 'what if he doesn't make any friends', 'what if he is the weird kid' but I need to not think about those things and just take it easy.

Well we are going to go play some Mario Kart on the Wii... I hope whoever reads this has a happy new year with lots of luck and happiness!!!
