Proud

This morning I can't help but feel proud. Proud of my little boy who is growing up too fast, proud of myself for taking time to go to the gym and sticking with it, and proud of my marriage and my relationship I have with Gary:)

Yesterday we took Connor to the dentist... he did so great! I remember the first time I took him about a year ago the dentist had said that around two they would try to clean their teeth, but sometimes it doesn't happen. Connor loves to brush his teeth so when the lady handed him a new toothbrush he went right to brushing and let her clean all his teeth and put fluoride on:) What a big boy he was he sat there all by himself and didn't move at all he listened well and it was an over all pleasant experience... He did say he was all done while we were waiting for the dentist to check him out but a little ech-a-sketch fixed that quickly:)

Connor is also fully potty trained!?! REALLY?!? He's not even two yet? I don't even know how this happened I guess he really was done with diapers (he loved saying goodbye to them). He still wears a diaper at night and we put him in a pull up if we are going to be out for a while or at the gym, but if were just running to Safeway he goes without one and he has gone twice in the public potty!!!

He is picking up new words every day I can't even count all that he knows now but he does know all his body parts (including elbow, knee, and butt) too cute! Now if I could only get it on video tape that would be great. He's saying colors and some shapes, and he loves all his stuffed bears... Yesterday I was going through his summer clothes from last year which are too small (18 months) good thing old navy had 25% off yesterday:) And he found his bag of stuffed animals (I had hid them because at night he wanted them all in his bed) he took one at a time out of his room off somewhere, then he came back to his room and grabbed my hand and said "mama bed mama bed" he had put them all in our bed and wanted to cuddle. It was getting close to nap time so we laid there for a little bit then he wanted me out and said "door" so I told him we needed to go potty and go to his bed and sure enough he was out:)


I really am proud of my little boy and what a good boy he is, yes he has his moments where he wants his way but for the most part he really is a sweet heart and loves to be the center of attention:)

So we joined the gym almost two months ago maybe more than that... I have been going 5 days a week for the past month 1/2 and meet with a personal trainer twice:) GO ME! So I don't have gorgeous abs yet, but last night I noticed my legs are looking toned yay for shorts now we just need some sun:) I have also put on weight since working out which has kinda bothered me a bit even though most of it is muscle my jeans are a little tight, so I started tracking what I was eating and I wasn't eating enough, adding food to my diet has really helped this last week, so hopefully it will all even out although my trainer wants me to weigh 125 (at 20% body fat) I still can't help but know that that weight is when my jeans start to get too tight and 115 is like ideal for me everything fits and I haven't been under 120 since Connor was born so it would be kind of nice to get back to the official pre-pregnancy weight but I know it's always been in that range maybe 118 would be perfect:) I'll just keep looking at this picture from my senior year in high school until then.


Speaking of high school, I am one of the few who actually marries their high school sweetheart. Ok maybe we were on again off again sweethearts with a rocky road ahead but looking at where were are now and how we have been for the past 3 years is amazing. We grew up and we changed and we changed for the better and grew up together. Gary is someone I can talk to about anything and he listens to me and I listen to him. We always find a way to find an agreement on things and are there to support eachother. So maybe all those tears I cried in highschool were wroth it, everyone cries in highschool. But deep down I always knew Gary and I would be together forever, even when he told me he didn't love me like that I knew and I was right:)
