Kyden

Baby Kyden has been in the hospital a few times. What a scare. I just have to say he is the cutest little boy I have ever kissed. I have been in Georgia with Kyden, Tasha and Zach since the 12th of March. I did get to see Tasha on her birthday something moms always like to do. I am thinking however that I just might be waring out my welcome here, and I sure do miss home.  We are still working on finding out what is going on health wise with the little guy. The kids are finally getting a few answers, but with more testing still to come and more answers needed. Kyden is growing and changing every day. I am blessed to have such a cute grandson. Even more blessed to have spent this time with him getting to know him. (sucky reason to be here but I will take it) Grandpa Kelly even got to come spend a few days with Kyden. (I sure enjoyed seeing him also) We believe we are on the up hill of this climb and that the sun will be shining on the top. I want to thank EVERYONE that has thought about us, prayed for the family, joined us in the fasting. I believe the blessing and prayers are being answered. Thank you so much, we love you all.



I just love these 2 boys!



I wonder if he has a headache?




He has just the cutest smile ever!!



This sums up our month!

We have been put into a blender it started on chop... and went through every stage before coming to a stop on puree. We are just greatful no one opened the lid to splash some of us out on the celing and walls or that no one has poured us out. : )

Now I know why I hated pictuers

 OK so this is going to be a bit hard for me, but here goes. I know why I hate my picture taken. It shows the truth. Now with 20 years passed by, I should have let people take them and then took a good hard look at what was there. I guess I was, well who know what I was thinking. I knew that I was not eating to much, for the most part I was just not eating enough, or at the right times. I also was not a fan of water, I wanted my coke. (Some times I still want one, funny thing is it really does not taste that good anymore.) So here is a bit of a time line. I guess saying things out loud makes me realize what needs to be done.
This picture in the red is from Tasha's wedding in December 2008 (YUCK sorry Tasha)

This one is from our Thanksgiving dinner at Millcreek in 2009 (YUCK YUCK)



Sorry this one is not a great picture but I think you can see some of it well enough. This one is cut from our family picture taken on Thanksgiving day 2009. In this picture I have cut my hair off. And I always thought short hair would make me look worse! Guess not. No really a few months before this picture I had changed a few things and lost a small amount of weight. BUT not enough. So in August I decided enough was enough and I have been work hard.

This last picture was taken on Christmas day 2010, I am pleased to see the progress I have made. In the family picture above I am finally not hiding behind something or someone. I still have lots of work to do this coming year! I have lost a total of 43 pounds between August and now.

This year my New Years resolution is to keep working and hope for great results! I can see the improvements in my face, and in my clothes. Sh'Kell will not go shopping with me because my pants are to baggy in the butt! (And she is right, some will just fall off if not for a belt)  I am running out of shirts to ware, they are turning into dresses. lol Today I have one of Kelly's tee shirts on!  I hope others can see some of the progress I have made. I have had great support at home from Kelly and the girls. Also I need to give my mom a great big thanks for being the one to do this with me and keep me on track. Love you all and I hope to keep this goal rolling.  This just might be the year I do it. I also need to give a HUGE thanks to two very special people in my life. Heidi and Kathleen my great friends and motivators at work. I could not have done any of this with out all your kind words and challenges! I am going to keep on trucking and save some money for a shopping trip this summer with mom. By then we will need new clothes!
