Unzipping my fat suit

I am so excited i'm finally making progress in the weight loss department! I have been so down on myself for the past year because I just couldn't make any headway, and now I am finally getting somewhere!!!! I have offically lost 17 pounds in the last 7 weeks. My wedding ring is getting looser, and my promise ring Jordan got me for our one year dating anniversary almost fits again! I'm really excited about that, because I have missed wearing it! I still have 30+ pounds to go till where I was pre-Carter....but I really don't know if that weight is attainable for me at this point in my life. I think I will be happy with 20-25 more pounds. Who knows, we'll see what happens. :)

We went out to the field where Paige (Dreamland Photography) took Carter's one year pictures at this weekend. I am still trying to quickly finish up his ABC scrapbook. We took 2 pictures, U is for Umbrella, and W is for Wagon. Carter was not all that cooperative, but we got some cute shots, considering we were there probably less than 10 minutes.






I haven't scrapbooked in a month. I get more behind with each day that goes by. I have SO much to do, but for some reason I just can't get motivated to start working again. I go through these phases, I wish I knew why. I'm hoping I get some time to work on scrapping this weekend since Jordan has a 4 day weekend...WOO HOO!

I'm not even looking forward to Thanksgiving this year....i'm more excited about Jordan having a few days off. I can't stuff myself with food because I don't want to gain anything back I have worked so hard to lose. That combined with the fact that we will be gone all day going to 2 different family functions leaves me less than excited. I know I should just be thankful for the family I have to celebrate with, and I am....i'm just not excited. Carter will probably be a cranky mess because i'm sure he won't take a nap except for in the car, and that always stresses me out. So anyways, Happy thanksgiving to everyone. I guess i'm the thanksgiving grinch. :)
