About Me

My photo
My husband, Nick and I got married on June 30, 2008. I have two dogs, Blue & Chica. My Husband and I have two beautiful boys. Tyson is 8. He is so adorable, smart, cute, and always seems to be learning something new everyday. Breckan just turned two. He is the most beautiful Not-so-baby boy I have ever seen, and seems to grow faster than I can keep up. I have been working in the housing industry for ten years and currently help in managing a 264 unit apartment complex, while Nick owns a carpet care company.

So as many of you know.. i tend to have a weight obsession from time to time. Well i've been having a weightloss crisis since Mr. B was born. Yet, I lack them motivation to stick with these random urges to be fit.
Well this time it is for real!! Meaning that I am motivated and I will accomplish my goal. I long to be fit and healthy and tone. To look great in a bikini next pool season and to feel great. No longer do I want to be winded after walking up 3 flights of stairs.

My son deserves to have a healthy mom that can keep up with him. That won't die early due to heart disease caused by my own inactivity and unhealthy food choices.

Furthermore... I would love to enjoy the sports that my husband loves. We used to go on Rock climbing trips years ago and I could not do a thing. Now it has been years since we have gone but it would nice to know, that in the event that we found a wonderful rock to scramble up, I could hold my own! Hiking... i used to love hiking. Now I fear I will be winded on the slightest incline I come upon.

NO MORE EXCUSES...

I have joined and hopefully helped to grow a wonderful weightloss group called Big Fat Losers (BFL for short). I know. It sounds insulting. It really has a cute story behind it, and when our founder, Savanna, told us how she came up with it, we decided we liked it. And so it stuck.
Savanna is the cutest, kindest, sweetest girl I know. She is SO motivating. I am so glad she asked me to be a part of this group and to have our team cheering me on along the way.

Below I have attached my Motivation.
My family is my determination to become more healthy.

Sexy me in 2006

Much larger me in May 2009.
I have made alot of progress since this picture was taken. Lost a lot of weight and and shrunk a couple sizes. However, I still have some work to do and can't lose sight of my goals.

Chica







A couple months ago we got a new addition to our family. Chica is a cute little female Mutt-i-gree, that is a little ball of energy. We got her when she was 8 weeks old. However she is now about 4 months.

My Baby Boy is ONE!!!











Breckan is now One as of January 28th. He has grown so much over the past 12 months, and learned so many new things. He has 11 teeth to date. 8 in the front and 3 Molars. At his 12 month check up on Friday, He weighed 24 pound and 14 oz. He is off the charts! He started walking early December, and has a growing vocabulary. The more common words are Ma-Ma, Da-Da, sit, dog, Hi, Zack, was-at (what's that), Del... and a few more I can't recall. He can do so much and it is so fun to watch him learn. He loves to point, clap, do the ba-ba thing with his hand and mouth ( ha ha don't know what to call it), and flip his lips with his finger.










It is so hard to leave to work everyday, but I always look forward to our Fridays together, and Breckan always looks forward to his Lazy Saturdays with Daddy.

Jumparoo...














Breckan is growing so fast and is beginning to get very curious. He loves to be sittin up and watching whats going on and also likes to stand. Because of this I have been wanting to get an Exersaucer or walker or anything to help him learn. After spending lots of time on KSL classifieds, we decided to just go to Walmart and buy him something new (can't be too safe with this Flu crap going around). We ended up getting him the Baby Einstein's Music and Lights Jumparoo, and he LOVES it! At first he just like to watch mom play with the frog that twirls and the rings that move up and down, but he has recently discovered the mirror and loves staring at himself. and liks the linking plastic chain rings also. He has started to"bounce" around in it a little and tries to stand frequently. It is so fun to watch him play and learn. He makes the cutest facial expressions while he concentrates.

He stole my heart... and I didn't mind a bit!
