Cheated...

These are some of the the thing I feel infertility/losing my son has cheated me...

1. The feeling of being less than a woman. People give so much regard to women who can carry and give birth to a baby. As they should just makes me feel less than.

2. Being able to see Shane be the great father I know he is/ will be.

3. Being able to make mine and Shane's parents loving dotting grandparents. ( this ons hurts my heart more than u can imagine.)

4. Getting to come up with a cute and creative ways to make the "big announcement"

5. Feeling like my life is on hold... But no way to know what it's on hold for. Always planning for what if. ( yes this is a choice, but mostly you just feel lost)

6. Having a baby shower and organizing cute tiny little baby clothes that u can imagine your bundle of cuteness in.

7. Having family in the waiting room hugging and laughing about the birth of our baby. Instead of red eyes and a bunch of questioning why.

These are just a few of the things that were on my heart and want to remember them when I have that miracle in my arms! Im Still living, still hoping...

let's get it started!

Well, It's about that time, you know the time to lose weight! This isn't really a New Year's resolution. I was asked by my little sister to be a bridesmaid in her wedding back in like October... Well I knew I didn't want to be the fat bridesmaid so I decided to lose weight! I probably should have decided in October, but stuff. lol. So Tish and Brandy are helping me stay on track we are going to reach our goal weights!!!

I want ok need to lose 50 lbs.

I decided to do this in shorter goals. I started out at 236 yes that's my heaviest!!! I almost had a heart attack when it went up that high. but the pounds just kept creeping on! So as of yesterday I was 225.4! 10.6 lbs. down!!!! So by the end of January I would like to lose 7 more pounds to be the size I was when I got pregnant with Jaxxon. Then by the end of March I would like to be 200. Then by the end of May be 185. I have til July 23rd to keep losing but really the beginning of July to make sure my dress and everything fits!


SORRY THESE PICS ARE SO BLURRY MY IPHONE HAS DECIDED TO START TAKING BLURRY PICS!
and I pretty much just use my phone for a camera b/c my laptop wont upload pics to blogger for some reason! Maybe I just need all new equipment :)
I'm a little nervous and a lot self conisous to post these. I figure you have all seen me anyway so stuff. I think this will help me be a lot more accountable and motivated b/c I plan on posting updated pics every month!
1/5/2011 225.4 lbs.

Christmas # 3





On Christmas day we traveled back from Woodward to Glenpool where my dad lives. We were HUNGRY and NOTHING was open except IHOP so me and Shane, kassie and Robby, and Chris (my step brother) to enjoy a Christmas dinner.




Then on Sunday everyone was at dads to open presents and enjoy being with each other.







Dad and his favorite child Tonka :)







Us and our 2 dollar bills :)



Then we finished out the day playing games!

It was a great Christmas!
