Okay making easter cards = picture taking!

I Love that picture!! Look at that smile! I wonder how I let him get away with something now I know. Oh and notice the new teeth, they are still not even but if you look further down in the post you will see how they did look. Its an improvement! He cant eat raw apples carrots etc as per the dentist. So were careful with what hard type of foods he eats now.

We were trying to get a few Easter cards made so of course that is an opportunity to take pictures! So here are a few pictures of us making a few Easter cards. Greyson was being smiley for the camera! I would look at him and say look at mommy and he was look at me and wink at me :)







Then he thinks its cute to eat something directly off the table using his mouth kinda like a dog ;)









Almost 21 months old and now his latest word and asking is for...... Juice! A friend of ours come over with her little girl and she drinks juice. I think Greyson has had juice about 8-10x so far. Now he asks for it daily. Of course he doesnt get it daily but i have been giving in about every other day! I found an organic juice at Sams that has 40calories and 10g sugar so im okay with it every once in a blue moon :) The normal juice has like 150 calories and about 20-30 grams of sugar in one box.

and we will see you later :)

I am so behind :)

Yep I said it! I admit that we have running around so much and doing this and that, that I
1. Have not posted any new blog entries and
2. Have not taken many pictures of my son

If you know me thats so not like me. I normally snap at minimum 200 pictures a month! Ive been a slacker. So im making myself take one picture a week from this point on. I also have to call and get him in to do pictures oh sometime in the next 2 weeks as we have not had his done since our family Christmas pictures.

So for now here are a few pictures of Greyson I took a few weeks ago. Sorry its all I got... bad mommy I know

This was a day he was playing outside while eating his snack which was raisens. The boy LOVES LOVES raisens. He would eat them all day long if i let him.

Weight loss pictures

okay my family thinks that im getting to skinny so here are some pictures for everyone to see that im really not that small...lol The last picture I posted of my weight loss just happened to be a great picture.. soo here ya go

Oh and its hard to take pictures of yourself, and make a muscle while holding a phone to your ear and the camera out in front of you :)











See im really not that small people!!!!!

Okay bedroom pictures

cause im sure you care....lol But im always curious what other peoples room looks like so here you go.. and why does the bedroom always get neglected as far as unpacking goes???? I still have pictures to hang up and boxes to unpack for the bedroom and a garage full of crap to go through. So all these pictures are after 2 weeks of being in our house so its messy..lol


Looking into our bedroom from the doorway:
I seriously LOVE the way our bed looks!



Our messy closet!



Are these not the most goregous sheets you have ever seen?
Bed again :)
And the biggest mess in here of all..lol But Seth's nanny's cedar chest looks great!
3 dollar thrift store chair that I recovered the seat on, I cant decide If I want to paint it white or not
What else but the bed...lol

New House pictures and chipped teeth :)

There ARE A LOT of pictures below.. so be warned. IM talking A LOT A LOT....lol Sorry there are so many but when your trying to show a whole house it takes taking quite a few pictures. And this doesnt include our room as our sheets are in the dryer.


This is what Greyson looks like after eating cheese popcorn with seth and you ask to see his teeth :)
And there is a picture of his chipped teeth below:)









My new love :) I LOVE doing laundry right now. Thing is though I havent been doing as much as I thought since this is like 2x the size of the front loader we had in the RV it takes more clothes to make a load...lol

Living Room:


Back yard well part of it anyway

Dining Room looking into the Kitchen area
Dining Room table and chairs: I painted these chairs and recovered the seats right after we moved in. Im not done with them though :)



My 2nd new love, the largest pantry I have seen and these pictures dont do it justice. You can fit 6 people in there without putting them in the closets. There are 2 closets as I only got a picture of one. Jealous?

Greysons bedroom he was getting ready to head to bed:

We have moved!!

We finally got in our house on the 17th. It doesnt seem like we have been here almost 2 weeks. There is still tons that needs to be done and the garage is full of things we need to sort through. But most of the things we need are unpacked and in the house.

I think I speak for everyone when I say this. We LOVE LOVE LOVE having a house. Greyson loves to run around the whole house and loves to go outside in the back yard. We have had a few warm days and have went outside and enjoyed them. And speaking of that

On Wednesday we went to the park because it was in the 60's that day. Well Greyson went down a slide belly first and must have gone to fast because at the bottom he went off and come back and hit his mouth on the slide. The result, 2 chipped front teeth!!!!!!!!!! We took him to the dentist yesterday and the want to put crowns on his teeth. We haven't yet decided what were going to do, and will probably get a second opinion as I was hoping they could just build the teeth back up with bonding. Im not sure why this particular dentist wants to do crowns. In any case the poor guy is dealing with it fine, and thankfully it didnt break down to where the nerve in either tooth is exposed or close to it. Its simply just chips, a large one on the right tooth and a smaller one on the left tooth. I will post pictures of his broken teeth probably tomorrow.

On another note, if anyone cares...lol I have lost 33lbs!!! I cant believe that in such a short amount of time I have lost this much. I was expecting to loose it slower. But hey ill take what I can get! So just to remind everyone what I looked like before: and I cant BELIEVE im actually posting this. This is at my highest weight ever




and then the after! Well the part of the way anyway. I still want to loose at least another 15lbs maybe 20. Funny cause until I was digging these pictures out a month ago for a friend I didnt see my weight loss, but now that I see those pictures together I can tell a HUGE difference. I have went from a size16 and can currently wear a size 8. SO im happy! Its hard taking pictures of your own body let me tell you so this is all i got..lol

We are moving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was a lovely day here in KC. The weather was so pretty that we went outside and let Greyson run around. I think he had a blast. Here are some pics from that.








I cant begin to tell you how excited we are. The time has come for us to tell the old RV good bye and move into a house. We found the perfect house in Lees summit Mo. Its a nice house with 2 bedrooms, garage, basement, large storage pantry, large fenced back yard and the kicker... a DOGGIE DOOR!!!

So the next few weeks well probably a month will be crazy and I probably wont be posting much if at all. I have already started packing trying to get as much done as I can. But alas you cant pack things you will be using. Ill update with pictures of our new house once we are in a settled.



And for those of you who might care about my weight loss here is a pic that seth snapped of my big butt today :) As of today I am down 28lbs since October 15th 2008. So about 4.5 months. I am currently in a size 10 but need to go down to an 8 as they are getting loose! I have tried an 8 and they fit me just fine :) If only my top half would CATCH UP ALREADY!! I have lost 8 inches around my waist so I shouldnt complain. But a total apple shape I am! My goal was 45lbs by end of August 09 so with that in mind I have 17lbs to go. But I am thinking I would like to loose another 25-30 but im sticking with 45 as my goal for now.
