Oh my!! It has been awhile since I updated!! I am still here…just got busy with the weekend and then Huntler went and got really sick on us again. REALLY sick. But his fever now seems to be down so I am hoping the worst is behind us. I am keeping this short as I have many things going on but wanted to pop in and say that I am still here!! And I still have tons of pics to share of our little man as well as his sassy sister! I may not have posted many lately, but believe me, I am still taking them!!
A couple of the blogs I read recently did this *tag* with 8 things. Here is my edition!!
8 Things I Am Looking Forward To:
1. An upcoming trip to New York City!! I have ALWAYS wanted to visit there…and stand outside the Today Show. Is that weird? Well, even if it is, I can’t go to NYC and NOT do it after all these years of dreaming about it!
2. Getting in shape…I am working hard! We need to make some serious life style changes around here and I am really working to get there.
3. Our summer road trip to Kansas! We have been back the last two years in June for our class reunions and haven’t made any plans for this summer as to *when* that annual road trip will be taking place, but you can bet I am looking forward to it!
4. Getting my photography business off the ground!! My business cards are done, my first shoot is in the works, it is all coming together! Now I just have to get the website portion figured out!
5. HOPEFULLY getting to meet my amazing and sweet blog friend Julie in the next few months! She lives in California and we had so much fun on our last road trip out there that I would LOVE to go back soon and get to hang out with her while we are visiting!
6. Gentry’s *Candy* themed bash in July and Huntler’s Beach Party in September!! I am full steam ahead on Gentry’s party planning but haven’t done anything yet on Huntler’s!
7. Our 6th wedding anniversary which is coming up next month! WOW…six years already?
8. Editing some of the HUNDREDS of images I have of the kids!!
8 Things I Did Yesterday:
1. Spent 30 minutes on the elliptical burning calories and working up a major sweat! Hated it but loved the way I felt after completing it!
2. Vacuumed the upstairs until the vacuum started overheating on me and made me mad so I quit!
3. Gave Huntler a FREEZING cold bath to try to bring down the 105.5 fever he had spiked. It was horrible, but it worked.
4. Ordered some of this fabric for a project {or two!!} that a sweet friend is working on for me!!
5. Wrapped styrofoam discs in cellophane and turned them into cute lollies!
6. Returned emails.
7. Took Gentry on a walk/bike ride. She got a new bike for being potty trained and we had to have a little photo shoot with it!
8. Enjoyed the RARE cloudy and cool day we had!! From inside since Huntler was too sick to take anywhere!
8 TV Shows I Watch:
1. Friday Night Lights
2. General Hospital
3. Keeping up with the Kardashians
4. Law and Order SVU
5. The Bachelor
6. Deadliest Catch
7. The Exterminators
8. Biggest Loser
I think that is it! Both my kiddies are awake now so I should get!! Need to get on the elliptical before it gets any later and I TOTALLY talk myself out of it!! Speaking of, does anyone know any amazing tips {other than starving myself because that is NEVER going to work!!} to losing like 5-7 pounds in a very short amount of time? If so, I NEED to know them!! I’ll tell ya why later!

Well, it’s not starving yourself, but it is eating only natural! It’s hard, but it works! You can only eat fruits, veggies and nuts. Olive oil is okay and so are some seasonings. I allow myself light italian dressing for my salads. I’ve been doing this for a few weeks and I have lost… I’ll just say over 5 pounds. I have been doing a little cheating. But when I cheat I take kids sized portions!
