So Much for 9 months on, 9 months off...

It's been 17 months since Katelyn was born and I've tried losing some of the weight I gained during my pregnancy only to quit trying after only losing a couple of pounds. This time, I've called in the big guns....Weight Watchers. Justin and I are determined to lose some weight, so stay tuned and see the transformation. Maybe this will keep me accountable. My goal is to lose 30 pounds. I don't really have a time limit on it, but the sooner the better right? My first WW meeting was Thursday but I actually started dieting last Monday. I've already lost a few pounds, so that's a good start. I will update every Thursday with my results. Hopefully the number on the scale will continue to go down.

100% Back

David had his last chemo treatment yesterday! We had a lot to celebrate, so we all took off Thursday night to make the trip to Houston. David had to go in for chemo Friday, so we met up with him when he was finished and had cake. Then, we went to Dave and Buster's for some games and Pappasito's for dinner. All in all, it was a great day with something wonderful to celebrate.

My Girl

Here are just a few recent pictures I took with my new camera. Here is Katelyn the day after Christmas at Mimi and Pawpaw's house.

 This is Katelyn's new Power Wheels she got for Christmas.

 Sweet sleepy baby.

 Weee!!

Baby's SECOND Christmas

I am looking forward to Christmas this year so much. Having a little one really makes preparing for Christmas really fun. She's not really old enough to understand everything that goes on but she's old enough to have fun with family and enjoy her new toys. She loves messing with the Christmas tree ornaments and looking at Christmas lights as we drive around town. She even can tell you that Santa Claus says "Ho Ho Ho".

Here are some things my baby can do at 16 months:

• She can say a few words now. She says: mama, dada, go, cold , keys, tea, peas, uh-oh, hi, bye, uh-huh (for yes), and no.
• She can make animal sounds for several animals including moo, woof woof, and quack ("ah ah")
• She has learned to scribble with crayons.
• She can climb up a few steps and slide.
• She is so in love with going to bed at night. She will say "uh-huh" when I ask her if she wants to go to bed. I'm not sure that is very normal, but I love it!
• She is wanting to use a fork to feed herself sometimes.
• I love that she can answer with "uh-huh" or "no" to most questions I ask her. It makes it easier to figure out what she wants.

October- 14 months

We dressed Katelyn up like Minnie Mouse for Halloween and she looked so cute.

September- 13 months

A while back, we took Katelyn to the Port Neches Splash Park. She had a blast! She never stopped running the whol 45 minutes we were there.

It's Been So Long Since I Blogged...

that I forgot my password.

I finally figured out how to reset it, so hopefully I will upload some pics, and maybe a video or two, this weekend.
