The best egg I've ever had...

Well, hello there strangers! It has been a while since I have been on the ol' blog.

The good news is I am done with phase 1 of my diet from heck.

I have lost a total of 20ish pounds and feel great.

Technically, I should have lost a little more, but the truth is... I was miserable and I might have eaten a few things here and there that were NOT on the list. 

Sigh.

Oh, well, 20 pounds in a month and 6 days isn't so bad! :) 

The even better news is I got to eat breakfast this morning for the first time in over a month!

That was the best boiled egg I've ever had in my life! hehe!

I will be eating a low carb, low sugar diet for the next six weeks and then start the HCG back up after that so I can reach my goal weight.

The bad news is settling in finally, however.

 There is NO WAY I will be sporting a bikini this summer.

I just don't have time to get it all off! :)

I'm so just kidding.

 I'm pretty sure I will NEVER sport a bikini ever, ever again.

 EVER.

And you are welcome for that! :)

I decided to just play catch-up through pictures.

 Recording every single event we have attended in the last few weeks would be not only boring but I just can't relive it again.lol.

You will probably see a trend throughout the pics.

BASEBALL.

Lots and lots of baseball fun.

For some reason this picture of Kooper makes me want to get all weepy and sentimental so just stick with me for a second.

Whew.

Now that I have that off my chest we will carry on...

My super handsome, long and lean, home-run hitting machine...

Here are the goober twins in full uniform...

Dear God, please, please, please let Case get those teeth he lost a year ago in SOON! Those two teeth in the front sure look big and lonely all by themselves! :)

P.S. Kenna Mae only has FIVE ribbons tied to her body. That girl is so girlie it makes me smile.

"wait, don't forget to tie ribbons in my pigtails, Oh, and on the sleeves of my shirt, too mommy, and rubberband the back of my shirt cause it's too long...and put a ribbon on that too!"

Love that girl!!!!!

It occurred to me I haven't posted pictures of my niece, Miss Ava Grace in a while.

I would like to add she is still GORGEOUS! I can say that because she's my niece and not my daughter.

But, I'm pretty sure if she was my daughter I would say it anyway!:)

The other day while I was lost in the mountains of clothes in the utility room, Kenna Mae helped herself to a little snack.

 I guess when your 5 and all you can see is your mommy's head sticking out from the laundry pile it is the perfect time to snatch a juice box and dig ALL the marshmallows out of the Lucky Charms box.

Busted, baby girl.

This was actually their first game. I told them to pose for the camera.

Classic.

I don't think closing your eyes is helping you catch that ball, Kenna Mae...

Ready to run...

I LOVE this picture. Teammates chatting it up before the game.

Seriously, that pink bat just tops off the t-ball "outfit".

Well, that sums up the last 2 weeks of my life.

Throw in practices and gymnastics, and voice lessons, and taxi driving and you get one crazy, exhausted, HAPPY Momma.

Hope you guys are taking a breather every now and then to enjoy this time of year!
