Let the Final's begin

Friday June 4, 2010 Ryan will be 9 months old and he will witness his 1st NBA final's game. Todd purchased Ryan a basketball and started rolling it to him as soon as he was able to sit up on his own. He is such a proud papa.

Let the games begin:

Happy Birthday ShoNuff............

We are like peas and carrots, you and me;

He Wear's Many Hat's

It is no secret that little girls have really cute clothes, they are better looking and have more variety than little boys. Many times when I am shopping for the little guy I wonder to the girl's section and think, Todd better be happy we don't have a little girl. However I enjoy putting hats on my little man and surprising he wears them, without any problems. I think they look so cute on him and change his whole little look.

Here's Ryan and his many hats:

The 3 Amigos

It is no secret that Todd and I were high school sweet hearts..........Well these two guys Oji and Uli were two off Todd's closes friends in high school and it's nice that they are still very good friends and although they don't hang out as often, they are still the 3 Amigos...............Tonight we had a lot of fun talking about old times, Uli and Liz (his wife) are moving to the Dominican Republic and they will be missed.........Adios

8 Months...........

Can you believ it has been 8 months already. That baby is 8 months today and this has been an amazing rollercoaster. It is awsome watching him grow. I keep telling everyone that I think Ryan is God's gift to us.

ONLY 4 POUNDS...................

Okay so I am trying not to be discouraged, I got on a scale and found out I have only lost 4 pounds. It has been two full weeks and I didn't think it would be this hard to loose weight, however it is worth it. I have really been watching what I eat and trying to work out minimum four days a week.

For encouragement I watched the biggest looser tonight and have decided to take pictures of myself so I can see my progress. My friends have been so supportive, so thank you for all of your help. However if anyone has any recipe's you don't mind sharing that would be awesome.

Okay let's talk about it

Ryan is 7 months old and next week he will be 8 months on the 4th of May. I am on a quest to wear all of my jeans that I wore prior to having my baby boy. I started run/walking two weeks ago and watching what I eat and I must say I feel great. After I stepped on a scale and realized I gained 25 five pounds after having Ryan, I was terrified.

This weight gain I can't blame on Ryan because I lost most of my baby weight, however I decided I was going to continue to indulge in food and treats as if I were still in my twenties. I had an Ah Ha moment and realized I want to continue to have good health not only for myself but for my family and I want to look like the wife Todd married, but most importantly I wanna be cute and comfortable.

So......as I am up in the wee hours of the night catching up on all of my Oprah's and blogging I am proud of myself for not doing what I love and that is late night snacking........
