Confession Friday

Its been awhile so lets get to it!

I confess that I have been a bad blogger....I feel like my life has been so crazy but so borning at the same time...if that makes sense.

I confess that my daughter is 17months old and still in 12 month cloths and they are to big too....I have a feeling that she will be wearing the same cloths next summer...or all her 18 month stuff she got that is way to big.

I confess that I have lost 4 lbs and 9 inches....I feel good about it...I could work more at it but I feel like this is a good pace for me so that I don't lose intrest so fast.

I confess that I do want to get back into running...one reason I really want to do the Santa Run with Sarah and Emily in Chicago.

I confess that I have 4 cakes for tomorrow and I am going out tonight to a friends birthday party...o well..it will all work out and turn out great!

I confess that the more I am in weddings the more I hate them and want to run away so no one can ruin the day.

I confess that I don't understand why a bridesmaid just can't be a bridesmaid and do why they are suppose to instead of making things worse!

I confess that I have a ton to file and as much as I don't want to do it I better get to it so that its not on my desk Monday haunting me.

Hope everyone has a great weekend....looks like the weather is gonna be awesome!

laptop or a seat?

Last night Loreli found her toy laptop and wanted to play with it...it was so cute to watch her. I should have took a video of her, but my camera is jacked up and only one setting works!
Look at me mom I can do what you do!

getting down to business

O I think I will lay back down and take it alittle easy

this stupid computer!
I think I will just sit on it...or take a dump

 
yes...we had to take alittle break and change a diaper and she was not happy about it

This is just like my bear chair...I can sit here and watch Mickey Mouse.

She cracks me all the stuff she does....I can't  believe how big she is getting!

Weekend Wrap up!

It was a great weekend all around!

Friday was Blogger Bunco and it was so much fun! I can't wait till the next one! Sarah R did a great job of hosting and Cassie did a great job at surprising Kim!



We had a little practice round and then got down to it!


Then we decided to get a group picture....it took a little bit but we got there...LOL



Saturday I was up bright and early to meet Jeanette, Sarah B, Megan P and Melissa for a baby sale in Collinsville. I got a good deals I thought! Then we headed to Kohl's for some more great deals...Then we headed back to Sarah's so that Eli could meet us and drop Loreli off..she was spending the night with the Blind's! Before we left Brody and Loreli played for a bit...it was so cute!

Saturday night we went to Gartenfest and had a blast!...We participated in the Olympics and got 3rd...we were pretty excited! It was a lot of fun and something different to do! We hung out and watched the band and then headed home...it was along day but a great one!

Sunday Sarah brought Loreli back in the morning and we just hung out till Eli got home from the auction. WE played with one of my bargains from the baby sale...Loreli loved it!


A dancing Mickey that normally sells for $80 and I got it for $12!

That afternoon we just laid around and didn't do much...that night  we met Grandpa Robbie and Grandma Tina a Cutters for supper...Grandpa Robbie was little surprised to see us because we didn't tell him we were coming!

After that we headed to Wal-Mart for a few things and then home to bed!

It was a great weekend but a busy one...maybe next weekend will be a little more relaxing!

Have a good week everyone!!!

No soda...all water baby!...I think I pee every 5 minutes!


I have slacked alittle this week because we have not been home so there has been alot of eating out and that is so much harder....so I have really buckled down the last 2 days..back at it!

I have not tired Jillan yet...1 because I am scared and 2 well I was thinking walking was gonna do it for me...so thinking after this weekend I am gonna get over it and try her out! I think I need her!

This weekend is gonna be hard with Blogger Bunco and Garten Fest...but I can do it!!!!

It's been awhile...

Sorry I have been out of the loop...I have had the craziest week ever! I normally can come to work and do my work...do some personal stuff...do some more work...so on and so on! Well not this week I have barley had time to get up to go pee!

So I am thinking that when I get home I can catch up....NEGATIVE...all 3 of our computers were down and our computer guy couldn't get here till yesterday...so I am gonna do a quick recap of the weekend/week so I can knida be caught up....I have yet to read an of this weeks blog posts so I have a lot to catch up on!

Last Thursday Eli had his last night of Softball so it will just me and Loreli....I thought I would try alittle ice cream after our walk and this is what happened...





Little stinker stole it from me!

Friday I had Loreli at work with me in the afternoon because Jenny was off ..she is always so good here but I was helping a client and the next thing I looked over and she had gotten a peach out of the bag and well bit right into it.




She just cracks me up sometime...she ate the whole thing!

Saturday we went bought my dress for my cousin's wedding and as we were walking out of the store it down poured and we just ran to the tahoe and jumped in...we sat there for a bit and Loreli decided she need to take a shot a driving...it was so so cute!





She was having a blast....after that we did alittle shopping and just headed home for the night!!

Sunday we got up and headed to Country Kitchen to grab some yummy breakfast...Loreli thought she needed to put the whole pancake in her mouth at one time....she dang near did eat the whole thing, and everyone knows how CK pancakes are! Little piggy!



After that we headed to Fairview to do a few things and one was stopped to see Great Grandma...


She even took us out to eat...it was yummy!


After that we headed home for the night...Loreli thought she needed to help dad read the paper and well this is what happened!





What I didn't do anything....them eyes get me every time!
After she got done helping dad we got ready for bed...this is the best time and Eli normally gets this more then me but still love it...


She is not much of a cuddlier so we take what we can get! That was our weekend...just alittle recap!

This week has been crazy crazy crazy and I don't think its gonna stop! I have been going to the chiropractor so that has been taking up alot of my nights but boy do I feel better! Next week is the last week of softball for me so that will be another free night....whoop whoop! I have been trying to plan the bach party for my cousin and get that all lined up plus deal with bridesmaid drama...which I hate...only 3 bridesmaids and one has to be a pain...and its the sister...even worse!

It has been a crazy week for me....I had a headache for about 4 days...went to the Chiropractor...all I have to say is my neck and back are jacked up....hopefully she can get it all back to normally again! So on with it..

I confess that I have been crazy busy at work lately and that is not the norm...I'm not use to not getting to do personal things...like now I am just checking blogger...I normally have checked 10 times by now!

I confess that I have only eaten ice cream once this week which is amazing for me...its normally a nightly thing!

I confess that I can't wait to update you on Operation Bridesmaid Dress on Monday....good news unless I mess up this weekend....STAY STRONG JACKIE!!!

I confess that Loreli went to work with me this afternoon....Uncle Dustin watch her in the morning and she was a really good girl...but she got a peach out of the bag and started eating it just like an apple...so so cute...she ate the whole dang thing...LOL

I confess I think I need a girls day/night...its been awhile and I think I deserve it! HA

I confess that that today at work between my craziness me and the other bridesmaid planned the bach party in about 5 emails....super excited about it!

Operation Bridesmaid Dress

So last week I found out that my cousin moved her wedding up a year and is getting married Oct. 8th. So that means I have to get with it so that I don't look like a whale in the dress.

So this is what I am gonna do....

Jillan Michaels 30 day shred....goal to do it everyday till the wedding!
Walks...I have an awesome stroller and I am planning on getting some use out of it.
             (If I am feeling good about my walks I may get back into running again..I kinda miss it)
Skinny Wraps....I bought some and I am gonna give them a try
Keep track of what I eat.....thinking about writing it down so I think about it putting it in my mouth.
Water.....we are gonna become best friends again! I need to clean the fat out!
NO SODA...I am giving it up!
Report it every week so that I stick with it!

Not only do I want to lose weight for the wedding but I hate the way I look and I am to the point that I can't stand the way I look in anything...and all of my cloths are so tight and not attractive at all. I don't want to go shopping for new cloths...I just want to be able to wear my old ones.

So Operation Bridesmaid Dress is starting today....its a new month so its time to get with it and loose some of this fat so that I am happy with myself again!

So every week I will give an update on how it is going....wish me luck!!!

Weekend Wrap Up

Friday Mom picked up Loreli and had a sleep over and I went over to Julie's house for basket bunco and an Arbonne Party. It was so much fun and just want I needed!

Saturday I got up bright and early and baked my cakes for an order on Sunday. Got ready and headed to Moms to pick up Loreli and then off to Aunt Sarah's house to drop Loreli off again to spend the weekend with her. We had a tournament at the diamonds that started at 12. We got the first game in and then it poured! We got 2 1/2 inches of rain  and were playing ball with in 3 hours.....it was pretty crazy! The guys did a great job of working the diamonds and getting them back up and going. We finally got done about 1:30AM and by the time we got cleaned up and home it was 2:30AM. It was a VERY long day!..

Sunday I got up bright and early to decorate the cake...I had to peal myself out of bed! I went and delivered the cake and then headed to Sarah's to pick up Loreli. Sarah said that they had a blast and Loreli was a good girl. We stopped for a bite to eat and headed home so we both could take a nap. The rest of the day we pretty much just laid around and watched TV.

I am still super tired and can barley keep my eyes open but I made it to work! Not much of a weekend but it is what it is.

P.S.....I got told that Eli is not big on me talking about him since I made the time post so I told him that I would not blog about him anymore....so I am gonna do my best not to!....so you will be hearing alot about me and Loreli!!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!
