Today is the day!

Okay - so I've been wanting to get my weight back to where it should be. When I had Rylee, I had been on a gestational diabetes diet and weighed less the week after I had her than I had in a LOOOOONG time! It has slowly crept back up and I am not happy with myself. SO.....today, I'm starting to get back to my healthy eating and I figured I would make myself more accountable by posting it to my blog. Maybe this will help me stay focused.....we'll see!

On another note......I came to Little Rock yesterday for a 3 day Reading conference for work. I'm rooming with my bestest teaching buddy, Ashton. Last summer, when Ashton and I met, we were on a Reading First Conference, we knew each other all of about 3 hours and were informed that they messed up our rooms and we would have to be sharing a bed together! We both nearly died, but made the best of it. We've been good buddies ever since.....go figure! We definately had to bond and had to bond quickly last year! :)

We were both pleasantly surprised when we got in our room last night and found TWO beds! We just laughed!

When I left Rylee and Roy yesterday, it was very hard for me. I didn't realize I would have a meltdown on the way to AShdown after leaving them. It made me realize how much I love my husband and my sweet angel of a daughter. They are bonding with each other a little this week, and she's also staying with Bec-Bec and Nan a couple of nights. I don't think she even realizes I'm gone, but I sure miss the little toot. I can't wait to get home Wednesday!

Until then......

Little Rock Zoo

We made a trip to the Little Rock Zoo last month - on free day, none the less. We will not do THAT again! I've been to lots of Razorback games and I've NEVER seen so many cars lined up on the interstate waiting to get into the Zoo! It was insane, but the kids had a good time. I guess that's what matters.

Rylee Grace and her daddy soakin' up so "ball" on TV.......Rylee actually gets excited when any kind of ballgame comes on the TV. Of course, Roy loves this......we'll just see how long it lasts!

Back in the Saddle!

I'm BACK!!!!!!! Watch for updated pictures, Kathy! :0

Rylee's Rubber Boots

Rylee in her boots from Brandy. They're still a little too big and she's a little confused about how to walk in them......she picks her feet up to her waist to take a step.....too funny!

Thanks, Bran - we LOVE them in the water puddles!
