Lilly...

In her bumbo

Us

Waiting for Nana to try on clothes at Nordstrom.


At the MAC counter with Shannon


We had a nice visit with Lisa R (Ryan's mom) this week. It's always nice to have Lisa here. She cooks, she cleans, and she loves Lilly so much. I was able to take a few naps and go to the gym without having to worry about Lilly in childcare. It was so nice to have her here.

After a few busy weeks of travel and visitors, it's just the two of us again. It's nice to get back into our little routine--even if it revolves around Micky Mouse's Clubhouse, walks to the mailbox, and our daily trip to the gym.

We hope Shannon can come back and hang out before she heads back to BYU. Lilly loves playing with her aunt. She can't actually tell me this, but I'm sure she would if she could. I love hanging out with Shan.

I'm really bumming about my post baby body lately. I thought things would be a little more back to normal by now...but no. I'm trying to stay motivated and I'm trying to stay out of the pantry. The pantry is bad. The pantry holds too many carbs.

Why do I feel like I'll be on a diet for the rest of my life?

Diets are lame. I just want to eat what I want. Whenever I want.

Why can't I?

Jen I always love you in the red lipstick, you pull it off so well.

I feel your pain on the post-baby body. So much. I'm pretty traumatized by how slowly things are moving. I also love that pic of Lilly at Nordies. Adorable.

I totally agree about being bummed about how slow things get back to normal. I wonder if I will ever get back to my pre-baby body. It is definitely a lot of work. Good luck with boot camp! I should probably start one of my own...
