Happy Saturday Morning

I am all smiles today! I of course, like just about everyday, got on the scale this morning and it read: 165.4!!WoooWhoooo...I have not seen this number in a long time....since I was prego. I am slowly making the truck back to my goal weight and I always say...the more time it takes to take off..the longer it will STAY off! So I just had to come and blog about it. I have a really busy next 2 months ahead of me. Bachelorett parties, birthday parties (for my little one),and a wedding.

Now I will share just a tid bit on what I have been doing to lose weight. So far, running has been the best for me and I am finding that it is working. I ahve also been trying hard to eat a LOT of fish. I prefer Mahi Mahi because it doesn't have the fishy taste:) I have been having trouble finding snacks so I have been trying to just stick with fruit. And yes, when I run I 9 times out of 10 have to take Nova with me so I am pushing a 24+ baby with a jogging stroller. I look at it as an extra workout. On that note...hope you all have a great weekend!!

My how time flies

Thought I would do a little post about my little one today. Jen, you inspired me. She turned 11 months old yesterday so I have been working hard on trying to get things together for her 1st Birthday party:) I just got her invitations in the mail and I am soooo excited about them. I ordered through a lady on Etsy and she does a fabulous job!! you can find her on Etsy at Digital Parties:) Her name is Sarah and she is just awesome!! Her is a peek at Nova's invitation:

Her party is in these colors and the theme is , well of course, cupcakes!! I thought I would share just a few recent photos of my little peanut! Enjoy:)









I'm going to spend the rest of my day enjoying my little one and relaxing..... Have a great rest of the weekend!!

ZIon National Park

Last Wednesday, my family and I, went on a 5 day adventure to Zion National Park located in Southern Utah. We had a blast! Except Saturday it snowed almost all day which I did not prepare for. I loved this trip because we were able to go on multiple hikes which made me happy:) Here are a couple pictures of our fun filled days there!

                                                       My little peanut helping us unpack:)

                                                                  See the waterfall?
                                                       Starting our hiking journey
                                                                   More waterfalls

                                                                       My hubby

                                                A really nice couple took this photo for us:)
                                                                Almost to the top
                                           A really nice older woman took this one for us:)
                                                       An iffy bridge.... yes we crossed it
                                                         A little tunnel-like walk through
                                                                   We made it!
                                                                 Whoop Whoop
                              Our campsite is all the way at the bottom around the corner to the left

                                                                She was sleeping:)

Plans for today..

Good morning and Happy Easter! The hubs is working today and some of the plans I had changed so instead I am thinking about going on a 2 hour walk...yes I said 2 hours.... I have to make up for what I ate yesterday. Then, I am going to try something I have never done. I don'ty have the nicest camera but I was gonna go to the park and take so pics of my little Nova all dressed up in her Easter outfit. Hopefully I get some cute ones. On a different note, I have been consistent with staying below 170 but had a relasp yesterday and gained 2 pounds. I plan on being back under by tomorrow.(Yes I am obsessed with weighing myself everday) I'll let you know how the pics turn out:) Thanks for stopping by!
