Olivia turns 1! Her party

Wow on 9/26/2009 Olivia...my baby...turned 1 years old! She is wonderful, she can walk a few feet at a time. She holds up 1 finger to say she is 1. She eats all table food (never ate baby food). She is switching to whole milk as we speak and she is the best thing in my life! :)

Chapel Hill Farm 9/20/2009

We went to the local farm on 9/20/2009 it was a fall festival they were having. Olivia rode the cute train ALL by herself! There was not even a seat belt, she held on like a big girl for the whole ride! Also she went on her first hay ride with me and George! It was a great day, we also went to Webber's and bought a peck of apples, a french apple pie and some cider! Yay fall is almost here !




Also a recap of my weight loss so far, I am at 183! I delivered at 255 and my goal was 180 by Olivia's first birthday! 3 lbs to go in 5 days!...It is doable, I worked out yesterday and did yard work today :)

Also we are TTC! I went off the pill 8/1/2009 Still not prego yet but maybe this month is the month :)

First trip to the zoo 8/14/2009

On 8/14/2009 George, Me and Olivia went to the zoo! It was alot of fun spending the day together as a family. I love George working 4 days a week and having off on friday.
My favorite animal was the one that looked like a horse with zebra legs, because it matched Olivia's outfit! We got the stuffed animal that matched it as well :)

First hair cut 9/13/2009

Olivia had her first hair cut on 9/13/09! Her bangs were in her eyes. She did so well, we had it done at Cartoon Cuts, she watched sponge bob while it was done. She sat still and did not cry at all! Such a big girl :0)

Weight Loss so far 9 months PP

I am so excited I have lost ALL my baby weight! I currently weight 191.6!!! So 9 months ago I weighted 255 when I delivered Olivia! I am very proud of myself! I am really starting to feel good about myself and I have alot more energy and motivation. I am trying to get to 180 by Olivia's first birthday party! :)

I am a Twilight Junkie!

Ok so this past week I didn't do much besides care for Olivia and Read ALL THE TWILIGHT saga! It was sooooo good. I am now Obsessed with it. At first I was torn between who was a better man for Bella...Jacob or Edward. Well after finishing the series I am in LOVE with Edward and how it all ended. I am sad it is over! I wish there was more to read about. I am counting down til New Moon is in the theater now!...also I plan on buying Twilight DVD today so I can watch it OVER AND OVER AGAIN! ....and maybe even a Hottopic shirt or two!



Edward is my new fantasy...trumping Johnny Depp

Noll Cookout 6/2/2009

Today we went to the Noll cookout at Uncle Bobs House. It was early this year because Steve was home from CA this week. It was alot of fun, olivia and Jillian played together and are getting SO BIG!

Also I have officially lost all 55 lbs of baby weight! I actually have lost 58lbs :) I want to loose 10-20lbs more to be happier with myself..and so when I get pregnant again I can feel prettier, and not feel like a blimp 100% of the time!
