8 week challenge

So me and Eric are going out to Salt Lake to celebrate our anniversary. We are going to go to sushi (YUM) Friday night and then Lagoon the next Saturday, I LOVE LAGOON. I would go there every weekend if we could, and it's sort of mine and Eric's "place". We went there a lot while we were dating and it just brings back great memories :)

So anyways, i want to look GOOD!! lol
I have been exercising since December and have lost 22 pounds. 22 pounds in 8 months, i know that's not that much, but it's been staying off so i am ok with it. So starting Monday i am going to work my butt off to lose these last 8 pounds. I am hoping that writing it down and having people read it puts a little pressure on me!!
Eric is going to do it with me too!! Wish us luck :)

August 18th-128 lbs
Oct 14th- Hopefully 120!!

As of Late

So the last couple of weeks our computer has been broken, it wouldn't turn on at all. I was going CRAZY!! Luckily i had my ipod but blogging from that is just too hard. I still can't post any pictures but i will update on my little man :)

He is into EVERYTHING!!
He can crawl faster than i can walk it seems like
He loves to play with his toys
He loves to play in water
Otis (our boxer) makes him giggle so hard when he sees him
He loves to be thrown up in the air by his daddy
He hasn't been sleeping very good :( He falls asleep on my lap, our bed, the couch, the floor, my arms, anywhere but his crib. He absolutely hates it, and i'm actually ok with it. I would rather him get a good night sleep and be comfortable that waking up every 2 hours. He is only a baby once right? :)
Blues clues and Diego are his favorite shows
He took his first 2 steps the other day!!
He is 10 months old on the 28th (SERIOUSLY)???
He lights up when he sees his grammy and uncles
Tubby time is his favorite time
His favorite thing to do is climb up the stairs (ahhh)
He learned how to climb back down them the right way :) (phew)
He is getting 4 teeth in at the same time!! UGH that makes 7 now!!
He snores (hehe)
He loves to play in the dogs food and water (when i'm not fast enough to catch him lol)
He has sweaty feet! lol
He doesn't eat his food very good, but when anyone else has food he'll gobble it right up :)



He has been so much fun lately!! His personality just gets better and better everyday! He is the happiest baby ever. We just love him so much!!

Eric is still working at Halliburton. A couple of weeks ago he flew up to North Dakota and worked there for a week.

I.HATED.IT

I know that sounds so awful but it is so hard being away from him for that long, not having help for a whole week, or just me time. Little man can get to be a handful so it's nice to be able to hand him off to Eric and just to take a breather. They must have known how much i hated it because he left again today for a week :'( I am so sad and hope it goes by quick. Luckily my brothers are back from Salt Lake, so i have them to keep me company :)

We have decided to move to Logan for Eric to go to school in January. I am so excited/nervous/sad. We are doing this for US. Nobody else. It will be sad to leave our families here, but there is nothing else for us here. I know he could get his generals done here, but he would have to find another job, and everybody that lives here knows how hard it is to find jobs. We know it is going to be hard to find jobs up there but we are willing to take the risk.
Eric is going to go to school to be an Eye Surgeon. RIGHT?! I am so proud of him. It is almost 9 years of school just to even get started out. He has always been super interested with that sort of stuff and one day he said, i want to go to school, lets move to Logan. I said OK!! :) We are so excited and can't wait for this journey to start in our lives. VERNAL see ya later!! :)

Well that is our lives as of late and we are having the time of our lives! :)
