Running...Running...Running in Circles!

Wow did I really (besides yesterday) step out of the blog world? Holy schmoly, I really did! Life has been crazy for over a good month now. I am 100% certain I am not burnt out on telling the world about me and my "awesomeness" through this blog however, my "awesomeness" has consumed me a lot lately. :)
I couldn't even begin to tell you how many pictures I have to post. Maybe I will do that when it Snows on Saturday!(SIGH, GASP) Good ole Kansas weather. That post will honestly be pictures from a month ago to recent. In the meantime I shall sit here and ponder what may have happened with me and my loved ones while I was away from the computer.
  • Dalton now knows every word to the country song Big Green Tractor by Jason Aldean. He now also owns black cowboy boots thanks to Candie. They are stinkin adorable on him.
  • I have completed another DIY project. I rehabbed my dull, boring bakers rack in my kitchen (pics to come) It was all Des's idea!
  • I have managed to reach the 38lb mark on my weight loss journey and I am in a size 16/18 from a sixe 22 in pants and a L/XL from a XXL in shirts! I really need to learn to start trying things on before I buy them, because I am buying too big :)
  • I rearranged the living room furniture so that not one couch faces the TV because I plan to turn off cable this summer. Yes, Russ I really am!
  • Dalton knows his 12 months, his ABC's, his 7 days of the week, his vowels, please and thank you, GIRLS always go first and always get served first!
  • I have rekindled my friendship with Amberly (The Bards) I decided life is too short!
  • My bills are all on time and the checking account truly does roll over when your budget is right!
  • We attended a Caleb Harrington's 5th birthday party at a park, yes we played outdoors it was beautiful and fun.
  • Russ has lost 12 pounds..he is also trying :)
  • I got to see Candie for the first time since October this past Sunday! Guess what she really is pregnant!! :)
  • Royal had her baby GIRL Lucy Larue :)
  • Des and I still see each other once a week OR more if possible. While out bargain shopping we discovered a new FABULOUS boutique called Encore. (our wheels started spinning big time) I must visit Encore more often...like twice a week would be suffice.
  • Russ starts playing ball again starting Saturday...OMG is it really that time already?
  • Dalton has started putting himself to bed, shuts off his light and gets in bed...then I am "allowed" to come in to kiss him and say goodnight. He is growing up way to fast for me! sometimes I like it and sometimes it makes me sad.
  • I saw neighbors outside last night for the first time. They had a fire pit going and I couldn't help but change clothes and practically sprint over there. We have all been hermits over the winter. Tonight is a GREEN BBQ, I can't wait! :)
  • Lil Monkey Bizness (a play gym for kids 7 and under) opened up down the street so my family and friends joined me there last night for some good ole Monkey'n around :)
  • As seen in my prior post. I got sick and of course I got sick with some wierd tremor... I feel better but I am on a medication that could be masking the problem. Testing is in my future :(
  • Everyone is having babies which is curing my "baby fever" Thank goodness because I already fixed that possibility of ever having another for me.
  • My BFF from high school was offered a teaching job and moved back her from Wichita. So exciting! Welcome home Ally!

That's really all I have right now. I have been doing my normal, cleaning house, picking up after others, seeing friends, being a mom and a wife and a friend and an employee. If you put all those hats together then you will see the AWESOMENESS I am talking about.

Hugs to everyone!

    Oh, and I haven't had cable for almost 2 years and I swear, I love it.

    Congrats to Royal and Candie. Seems like there is alot of baby girls being born these days.
