The Pound Plunge!!!!

Today Abby, Andy, Morgan(Andy's girlfriend) and I had our first weigh in for The Pound Plunge. It is a weight loss competition that is put on by the radio station 105.5 in St Joe. The four of us are a team- Three girls and a Guy is are team name! It is for 12 weeks and we will weigh in every Wednesday. The grand prize is a "All Inclusive" 3 day "bikini" vacation for the four of us and four friends.. .plus $800 spending money! There are around 400 teams so we definatley have our work cut out for us!

I have decided that I will let all of you follow me through my 12 week weight loss adventure! Maybe it will give me a lil bit more incentive to work extra hard so I will be able to tell all of you that I have lost so much weight!!! :)

SO my starting weight today was 221.9!
My goal this week is to lose 5 pounds, so we will see!

Baby Bros 21st!

This past week was Andys 21st Birthday, which means that I am getting pretty old! We took him to the Argosy at midnight then we had a party at the Quaff on Tuesday night. It was alot of fun and we are just glad that he was in town and we got to all celebrate together!
At the casino! My dad met us there at midnight and we all sat at a blackjack table together. It was fun. I think that Andy did win a little bit of money but he just had fun going around and playing a lil bit of everything! I know that he can't wait to go back and play some poker!

They put Andys name up on the board at the Quaff. Abby and I are lucky to have good friends there that care about us.

We all had a good time and I thank everyone that came to help us celebrate!

Thank you Anthony and the Quaff for making our night enjoyable....AND that it was! :)

Christmas morning!

This year christmas was really fun around our house. Bailey was really into Christmas. She was so excited about it since the day after Thanksgiving! I'm pretty sure that she thought that everyday was going to be Christmas. She was also very particular about what she was this year. If you asked her what she wanted for Christmas everytime she would say "a jam jam Barbie Jeep", which is a Powerwheels. So needless to say when she got up Christmas morning she was very excited to see the Jeep under the tree!

She was waiting till she could go out into the living room!
The JEEP!

It has a working FM radio in it that scans through all the stations!

Baileys Stocking!

This was the first time that she got into the jeep and we told her to press the pedal. When the car moved forward she jumped out and informed us that it scared her. Papa explained to her that we were all scared to drive our first times too. In no time she was right back in there driving all over the place.

Aunt Abby got her Horton hears a Who!

Uncle Andy looks awesome in the mornings!

Opening more gifts!

Later that day Grammie made us a wonderful dinner. We had my favorite, steak and shrimp! Everything was perfect and we all had a wonderful day! I love Christmas!!!!

Baileys Christmas Program!

Baileys first dance program was the weekend before Christmas. It was about the cutest thing ever! They did dances to a few songs that they have learned since the first day of class and then they also danced to a few christmas songs! She has had so much fun these first sixth months in dance, I can't wait till her big recital in May!

They are dancing to Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!

She knows all the words to the whole song!

She loves to wear leotards. When we are at home she always changes into a leotard and that it all she will wear around the house now!

Thank you to everyone for coming! Bailey is so blessed to have so many wonderful poeple that care about her. It means alot to us both! We love you!

Playdate!

Bailey, Maddie and Olivia got to meet and play together last week at The Grove! Erin was off work so she was able to come! The girls had a great time! Maddie and Olivia are growing up so fast... I just can't believe how time flies! I'm hoping that we might be able to make this a weekly playdate!

I'm so glad that Bailey has the cutest and BEST friends ever!!!!

I just can't imagine what times are going to be like when the girls are all older!!! I think that we are in for surprise!

Christmas with the girls!

Last week was my annual "Girls Christmas Party". We (my wonderful girlfriends that I graduated with) have tried very hard every year to make sure that we find time to get together! This was our 3rd year and they just keep getting better. It is just a great time for everyone to get together and the kids to all play. We have welcomed little ones over these past years which is always nice! We also try to make a date in August also, which we will be welcoming our newest addition, Carter Conrad! I am just blessed to have so many great friends and hope to be able to carry on our traditions for many more years!

The first snow!!!!!

Bailey got to go out and play in the snow yesterday and she had a blast! My dad took her out to play while the rest of us were trying to decorate the house for Christmas! They tried to go sledding but there really wasn't enough snow so they made a smowman instead! They called us after they were done so we could come down and see it and take pictures of it! She named the snowman "Uncle David".

Uncle David!
