Look who posted again!

Aren't you glad to see a new post and not the Breaking Dawn quiz? It is funny because, the longer I wait to post, the more I dread it and tend not just stay away from it!

We ended September with Mia's 4th birthday! Her birthday has always been a funny time for me because I remember how miserable I was at the end and the seven days or so leading up to her birthday, I always think, "I wanted today to be her birthday!" She was super cute though, and even though Ava and Layla were both sick, we managed to squeeze some fun into the day.
She chose these glasses out of the Treasure Box at preschool. Ready to go hunting!!!


I can't figure out why she has her nightgown on, but it's her day!

Here are the things I have been doing that have caused me to neglect my lovely blog.

1) I have been doing Body Pump at Fitnessworks 3X per week for over a month now. I am FINALLY losing the baby pooch. I feel so much stronger and I have stopped wanting to quit 20 minutes into it. I now wish it was over 35 minutes into it!! That's progress right!
My SIL told me my butt had disappeared and my friend (I'll keep her anonymous) told me I had a hot ass.
2) Halloween costumes. I wish I wouldn't decide to sew new costumes every year rather than letting the girls decide and put their costumes together. I figure my window for creative control is small so I have to take advantage. Mia is Tinkerbell and Ava is Wendy Darling this year. We're going to throw Layla in pink sleeper and she can be Michael.




Mia's Tink costume. She won't try it on til "tomorrow."




Now here's a good sport.




3) My crawling monster. Enough said....





4) My next digi-scrap volume! I am back at the computer. I have gotten a lot better and can finish pages faster. I also don't have to "scraplift" as much. Hopefully arriving under my Christmas tree!

Here are a smattering of my fave pages.

Love the pages! And hooray on losing baby pooch! I need to get on that. Your girls are so cute. I would love to get our girls together to play sometime. If only we lived closer or could plan our trips to Utah better. Or better yet, trips to Hawaii!

Alexis-
You do look great! It was fun to see you in body pump this week...just so you know...I am more sore than I have ever been in my life...and it's been 3 days since we took the class-Im never taking a 4 month break from body pump again! I can still barely go up my stairs-what a wuss I am. Anyway I want to add you to my blog-is that okay? I've been "stalking" yours long enough and figure I might as well add ya...you crack me up! Let me know-

Go Alexis. Body pump three times a week!! That's awesome. Are you lifting as much as Lori yet? When I lived in AZ I was super strong from going to that class. Since my move in July, I haven't done ONE thing. I'm a total loser now. I don't think I could even lift the bar now. You have a fun blog & I love the way you write things. So honest. Take care,
Cyndi
