Evenings of insanity

Every day around 5:30 I start to lose it, Well let me rephrase Landon and I start to lose it. The day is coming to an end and so is my well behaved child. I have been working in the evenings a few days a week and naps seem to be a thing of the past since we are on a new schedule with me leaving in the afternoon. So by 5:30 this is what we look like....



Then at around ten this is what he looks like......

If only this precious, peaceful sleeping child would emerge in the daytime oh how wonderful that would be! Then I wake up.

I would sell my soul to be skinny!

So my wight has been my biggest struggle my whole life. I'm skinny, I'm fat, skinny, fat, skinny, fat. Get pregnant get really FAT! I am not talking 20 pounds overweight i am talking i gained 75 pounds that is like two 5 year old boys. Anyway I have recently been working out with a trainer and dieting (sort of). I have actually seen results, for the first time in my life i think i have hope to look the way i want to look. I have lost 9 pounds in a month and 3% body fat. if i lose 10 more pounds i will be pre- Landon weight. Hurray, hurray, you say but little do you know that this has been this way it is my whole life get skinny then get fat again. So i have decided no more babies until i look like this........

Yes it is true no more bundles of joy until this happens, and it will happen. I think that i would sell my soul to look like this. Even if I have to get surgery in the end it will happen. So I leave you with a picture of me now but check back in May 2009 and you will see hopefully something close to the picture above.

P.S. I know this picture sucks but it is all I have.

Landons new favorite past time

This is Landons new favorite past time. He loves playing with the hose on the porch. It is a great way to keep him busy while I am getting things done. But now that it is almost fall it won't last long. I am so excited for the change of seasons fall is my favorite time of year.

Spelling

I can not spell to save my soul! Sorry about the post before this it sucks but i can not edit it for some reason sorry:)

Grampa Jim's b-day

Meet Wes's Dad Jim (pictured below). Jim is the best! He is kind and i guess you could say funny at least he thinks he is. He is the best father in law a girl could ask for. It was his birthday recently and the whole family came up to Roseville and we spent the day together. I made brunch then we went shopping and the girls got pedicures. After we went to dinner at The Outback where we discovered that my son covets ranch dressing, but who doesn't? Shout out to Jim!

4-Year Anniversary

Wes and I celebrated our four year anniversary on the 14Th of August. (We did not do anything because we weren't together. My mom moved to Utah and I had to go help her. Boo Jana. (Wes's words). When I got back we went to dinner at our favorit sushi restaurant Mikunis (www.mikunisushi.com) . I am so grateful to have Wes he is my best friend, and my strength. Here are some of my favorite pictures of us over the past 4 years.

Will Landon ever figure it out?

I am sure many of you moms have one of these toys. You push the big red button at the top and air pushes up through the tube. The idea is to put small plastic balls into the conveyer, watch them travel down into the tube, and fly back through the top as the air pushes them up. My son, however, has no concept of this. Instead, as you can see, he shoves blocks, cars, and any other toys that will fit down the tube plugging up the whole system. Once the tube is backed up, the toy makes a horrendously loud buzzing sound which scares the crap out of Landon. He runs away and the toy is left battered and broken.

This is one of my favorite things in the world. Landon sitting still. He and his daddy are having a nice time watching the Giants lose, again.

Hi, my name is Landon and I am really excited about playing my drum!

Hi, my name is Landon and I am really excited to be taking this picture with my mom!

I love this ridiculous new smile. It is very contagious.
