25 lbs and counting!

Today Ive officially reached my 25 pound mark!!!
That's 1/3 of the way to my happy weight, and 1/4 of the way to my ultimate goal, and that much closer to my baby making goal...and don't ask what that goal is, because only a select group of peeps know!!



Anyway that's about the most exciting thing going on today, but I'll take it! OH...and I finished reading Baby Proof.





LOVED. IT.


I wasn't prepared to like it as much as I did because all of my friends said it was their least favorite. I don't know if it's because I'm married or what, but I totally connected to it. I stayed up till about 12:30 to finish it because I refused to put it down.

If you aren't familiar with Emily Giffin's books, then you HAVE to read them. The first two are Something Borrowed and Something Blue...they're a sequel and are A-MAZING!!! Next is Baby Proof, but its not related to the first two (even though she does mention a few of the characters... which I love). Then there is Love the One Your With... So many people love this one the best, so I can't wait to start it this weekend! The last one just came out not too long ago, Heart of the Matter, but I've heard a lot of mixed emotions, so let me know what you think if you've read it!

It makes me sad to think I only have a few weeks left till school starts. No more reading books, crafts, movies...and good ole' relaxing. My days will consist of working 40 hrs a week, and my nights will consist of 4 classes and going to bed at midnight. I'll somehow have to manage to find time to spend with Presley and Clinton...and maintain some form of normalcy for our family. It's going to be tough, but the outcome will be worth it. That's all that keeps me going these days.

I didn't intend to blog today but I was so excited about my weight loss and book, that I had to! So again, have a wonderful Friday and weekend!!
