Catching Up Again!

I know this is really late, but better late than never right? I finally got my Easter and Baby Animal Days photos together and a few from our backyard.

Eva is getting so big. She is officially 10 months old now and has started crawling and pulling up on everything. She follows Elizabeth everywhere and want to be doing whatever she is. Luckily Elizabeth loves to play with her. They get along really well. Elizabeth has been potty training. I thought we were done. She was doing really well, but now seems to have forgotten everything. Any advice would be great. Elizabeth is getting so big. I can understand most of what she says now, although she still goes off into her own little language sometimes. She is also getting very good and trying to sneak around. Yesterday she wanted to go outside and was inventing up all sorts of excuses, like going to look for our cat. She even told me to go to my room so that she could sneak out.

I thought I would also update you on my weight loss goals. It has been slow going, but I've lost 4 pounds since I last posted. It isn't as much as I would have liked, but any weight off is a step in the right direction. I am still working on it an will get to my goal eventually. Well I think that is everything. Bye!

Outside Fun

Baby Animal Days

I thought that Baby Animal Days would be so fun, and it was except for the fact that Elizabeth didn't want to touch anything. She gave into petting a duckling and I forced a rabbit on her, but everything else she did not want to get close too. We still had fun despite the fact. Maybe next year she will want to do more.

Easter

Easter was fun. We had an Easter box from Gran and Papa in New York, then we had an egg hunt at Grandma and Grandpa Carter's House. All in all the girls ate way to much candy!

Losing Weight

For as long as I can remember I've wanted to lose weight. I really struggle to lose and keep it off. I've been trying to lose weight since Eva was born, but haven't been very successful, moslty because of my eagerness to give into food temptations and not working out. So I am starting again, right now. I 've decided to make my goal public to give myself some accountability as I go through this process. Below are my "beginning"photos. They were taken yesterday at the children's museum

My goal is to lose 54 lbs. It is a lofty one, but a healthy one. Losing 54 lbs will put me in the middle of a healthy BMI range. I am usually pretty secretive about losing weight and I don't really now why, so I thought by posting my weight loss process I would have accountability for it all and in turn lose weight. I don't know if any of you have read Dr. Phil's Seven Keys to Weight Loss Success, but that is what I will be using. Well, wish me luck and I will try to keep you posted once a week with how it is all going. Thanks!

Tree House Children's Museum

We went down to Ogden yesterday for Lance's Grandfathers 80th birthday. After we went to the children's museum in Ogden called the Tree House. Here are some of the pictures we took. As you can tell I edited some of them. We had a lot of fun and would like to go there again.
