Today was perfect.

Today was a perfect perfect day!  I slept as late as my heart desired (9 am like usual lolol), spent a nice morning with the fam before rushing off to Whole Foods.  Whole Foods is definitely a dream come true haha.  I love walking in there and knowing that im buying so many great things for my family.  My little baby deserves the best when it comes to food!  Then i went and splurged on some second hand clothes at once upon a child!  There is nothing more rewarding than getting a bunch of awesome gap clothes for wicked cheap.  Then I went to pick up my little lady and I surprised Kelly Trafton with a playdate! Thank you Kelly for letting me come over and veg out while my baby and your baby got some playtime!  After lots of love and goodtimes, I headed over to the mall to spend some more money on my little girl!  We got some sweet deals on clothes for her due to some sweet coupons!  THEN! we went to my moms for a little visit!   I loved my day today, and i just hope hope hope that John does well on his test thursday so that I can spend so much more time with my little girl.  She makes everyday of my life complete and just brings me so much joy.  something else that brings me joy is Gooshums snuggling up to me and keeping me warm. Oh gooshums, I love you.  Otherwise, life is delightful, Im down 17 lbs, and things are hopefully going to start coming together even more and more!

Yay for Saturday!

Since John works on saturdays, I typically find myself just sitting around doing a whole lot of nothing.  Why is there never anything good on tv on  saturday?  Probably because most people are out having fun.  I am currently sitting at home watching The Parking Lot Movie. . .. yay documentaries!  I wish it was friday again and it was 75 degrees out so i could play with Caeley outside!  Instead I went to the movies last night and today!  I saw Limitless, which was really really good.  I love me some Bradley Cooper!  It was entertaining, pretty at times.  Today I went with my good ol friend Ben to see The Lincoln Lawyer.  I have no interest in reading the book so I cant compare which is better, but I really really liked the movie.  Im going to see how many times I can write really really in my blogs!

So I have steadily worked out every night this week and can feel a difference already!  I am taking tonight off to be lazy and watch mindless documentaries about parking lots, but will be back on track with it tomorrow.  I am hoping to lose weight this week since I didnt last week 8(   First week since being on weight watchers that I havent lost anything but I ate A LOT of bad foods last week. Oh well, I shall keep on losing the weight!

I am really not feeling like writing in my blog but felt obligated to update everyone.  Sorry for the mindless babbling.  I am very exhausted at the moment.  Time to go talk to my love Robynne.

Yay! A new blog!

I was inspired by my friend Kelly to start up a blog of my own to just blabber on about my daily events (not saying you blabber Kelly haha).  I am just going to start with the run down of what my life has been like lately.  I work 40 hours a week to start.  Welcome to working class america haha.  I somehow find time to read at least one book a week, follow like 10 tv shows at a time, see at least 2 or 3 movies a week (whether at the theater or at home), spend a lot of time with my beautiful daughter (if you didnt notice her great big picture at the top of the page), spend little time with my husband since we work opposite shifts in an effort to keep Caeley out of daycare, follow my weight watchers diet and avoid temptations of horrible evil foods, and many many other things.

Ill first start off saying I have been on weight watchers for about two months now and have lost a total of 13 lbs so far. Considering my overall goal is to lose 30, I think im doing rather well!  I invested in an elliptical machine for my living room and am loving it (when i can force myself to get off my ass and use it).  I try to work out at least 3 to 4 nights a week but sometimes do not get to due to laziness or exhaustion.  What can I say?  I love coming home from work at 7, hanging out with my daughter for an hour before she has to go to bed, and then plopping down on the couch and chatting with my best friend Robynne.  Thankfully she reminds me to get off my ass and exercise haha.  So hopefully I will lose the other 17 lbs over the next few months and be a sexy mama.

Id like to just say now that I have the most amazingly wonderful daughter.  I never wanted kids.  When I found out I was pregnant I was terrified.  Now I cannot imagine my life without her.  She is definitely her mothers daughter and I hope she stays that way.  Not in the "i made my moms life a living hell" kinda way, but more like how I am now.  I am trying to raise her on a strictly organic diet, its not always easy but I am proud to say its been almost two years and my kid has never had anything fried or fast food (yayyyy Caeley!).  The obesity in america really gets to me and its a reason I am trying to get myself to my ideal weight to set a great example for my daughter.  She is my life.

Now, if you are reading this and you know me, you know that I am addicted to movies and reading. I will probably take a moment in every blog entry to comment on a book I have read or a movie I have seen.  Since the movie I just watched was horrible (i will get to that in a minute, gotta keep you in suspense), I will comment on the book I finished yesterday first.  I decided to dig out a classic and read Jane Eyre for the first time.  I wont lie, I was definitely motivated by the many movie trailers I have seen for the new movie coming out.  I do not know why I waited so long to read this book!  I loved it!  I won't spoil anything for anyone that has not read it, but I just loved the romance and over all eerie feel to the book.  It broke my heart about 100 times when I read it but was over all satisfied in the end.  I just went and saw Battle Los Angeles. . . .. I had planned to see Jane Eyre but didnt realize it was only being released in NYC and LA so had to settle for this stupid and disappointing movie.  It's not even worth going into it much but ill just say that although I appreciate movies with aliens and action, this one just left me feeling blah.  So blah that i left it early and went grocery shopping instead.  I NEVER leave a movie early, but since I had used a movie pass I won at work I figured who cares.  Ill catch the ending eventually, maybe it is unfair for me to fully judge it since I didnt finish it, but I would recommend catching it on demand or red box or however you may watch your movies.

On that note, I will end this extra long post.  I love any of you that are actually taking the time to read this and I love my life.
