My little boy is the joy of my life. I told my husband that and he was a little hurt. Then I reminded him that Jesus is really the joy and love of my life, but that he was the second love, and Andrew was the second joy. I hope that made up for it. He didn't seem to mind my explanation. I love being a mother. I always knew I would love it, but I had no clue just how much I would love it. I love taking care of my family. I love being partners with Adam through all of this. I couldn't imagine a better friend to walk through life with. Andrew is way too cute for words. And I'm not just saying that because I'm biased! I'm for reals saying that it's a fact. He's friggin cute!
See!!!
I'm not lying!!
He's learning everything so quickly! I feel like everyday has new delights to behold! New surprises and wonders! It's such a treat to watch him learn all about this world we live in. Yes, I love being a mother to the cutest baby on the planet.
So, with said baby being so adorable, and me being so generally happy, it's easy to understand why I've actually put off any kind of weight loss attempt until now. Life's been too great!! And, while it's still great, I am fat. I have jigglies around my belly, and my thighs are tree trunks. So. The plan is to make a checklist for myself everyday this week of things I can do to slowly get into the swing of healthy eating/living. Tomorrow? I need to drink enough water and eat a good breakfast. I also need to make a meal plan for the week, but that's more of a to-do. So, water & breakfast. I would say that I want to try to work out, but I'm actually battling a cold at the moment, so I'm going to hold off on making that leap for a few days.
The idea is for me to use my other blog to document the recipes I use to lose weight. I'll be using Weight Watchers online, which I love. I'm also going to be using a lot of the principles from the South Beach Diet, as well as trying to eat most of my food for the day before 3pm. With so many changes, I thought it best to start slowly, and implement them as lifestyle changes over time, rather than going cold turkey.
So.... water, and breakfast! Goodnight!

Jenn, I just told Jeremy that if I went back to school I would want to go to Culinary School!! Maybe there's a fun cooking class we could take :).
That would be so great! I've looked into cooking classes before. They look like they'd be a lot of fun.
