Here's the latest

I just thought this was too cute. I guess Anna wanted to get out back and play with the dogs.

So, it's been awhile since my last post. Sorry about that, I guess I've been a little bit busy. I don't have any one specific thing to update you guys on, so I guess I'll just share some random thoughts...

First, I think I've mentioned before how the Baby Einstein DVD's are my friend. (They allow me to shower in the mornings by keeping Anna occupied.) Well, I feel like she gets bored with the same old videos every day (or maybe I'm the one that gets bored with it), so I was trying to find something new. And you guys may have already seen these, but I hadn't and I'm quite excited about them. They're called the Praise Baby Collection. I bought the "born to worship" dvd Friday night, and I love it already!!! I watched it twice with Anna today just because I like singing along with it. Basically it's the same thing as a Baby Einstein except that it's familiar church songs instead of Beethoven or Vivaldi or whoever (which of course, there's nothing wrong with the classical music, I just get tired of listening to it over and over again). I can't wait to get all of the other DVD's (there's only 2 or 3 others) and maybe one of the CD's so we can even listen in the car.

Next thing, and this is more about me than Anna, but I'm just really proud of myself and I guess I want to boast a little bit. So I've been going to the gym the last few months and I'm very excited to report that so far I've lost 32 pounds!!! When I started going, I didn't really have much faith in myself that I could really stick with it, but I have surprised myself. I even went 5 days this week!! Yep, everyday, Monday thru Friday. I really shocked myself with that one. But anyways, I still have a long way to go, but with the progress I've made so far, I feel like the journey is possible now. I'll let you guys know when I've lost the next 32 pounds!!

I'm not sure what else I can tell you guys. There really hasn't been anything new going on with us lately. Basically just the new dvd and the weight loss, other than that, everything's pretty much the same. Guess I can't complain about that.
