Phil and Mason are dancing, while Parker watches.









Parker's first tooth. Can you see it? It's on the bottom.

So Sweet...

These are my boys... What more could I ask for? :)

Mason's 3rd Birthday Party (Feb. 26th)

It's only been a month since Mason's party. He had a great party, lots of family and friends to help him celebrate. He got so many books, movies, clothes and some toys. I think we've already watched all the movies at least once, some 2 or 3 times. We've read most of the new books. Still can't believe he's 3. It really does fly by.

Nanny made the cupcakes. Delicious.

Thanks to my mom for making the cup cakes and the veggie tray. Thanks to Mr.Rick for taking pictures for a 3rd year in a row. Thanks to everybody for his wonderful gifts.

We had so much fun! Parker was at Nana's house.

Bringing in the New Year! 2011

Even though we cheated and celebrated the New Year at 10pm instead of midnight, we all had a great time. I spent most of the night dancing away to the game, Dance Central on the Xbox. Luckily, nobody took a picture of me. (It's only because they don't know how to use my camera, LOL.)

I'm ready for 2011. I know a lot of people say they are going to lose weight/get in shape for the new year, then after a month they just give up. I am making small goals for weight loss. Lose a pound a week. My goal is eventually to lose 60 pounds. I've already lost 6 pounds in the last month. I'm trying to make better food choices, eat smaller portions(using a saucer plate to eat supper with), and exercise. Trying to cook more healthy foods for supper, instead of thawing out something frozen. I'm a long way from cooking/choosing the perfect foods for me and my family, but I think we're headed on the right track. I'm doing Zumba on the Xbox Kinnect at 4:30am, before everybody else wakes up, that's the only way I can get any exercise into my daily routine. My biggest cheerleader of course is my wonderful husband, Phil. When I push the snooze on my alarm, he becomes my human alarm. He assures me that I can do this. AND I WILL!!

Also, I've got the two ladies, Elana & Katie, who work in my office on board with eating healthy, watching our caloire intake, and of course, exercise.

Luckily, I went back down to my pre-pregnancy weight about 3 weeks after having Parker. So, I'm starting with the weight I've been trying to get rid of for the past 2 to 3 years.

This is the year to get serious about my weight loss goals!
