Cute little man and official start date.

So to start off I have a few pictures of Charlie doing his new stuff. He leans back all the way in his jumper and thinks he is hilarious, he seriously does this for minutes at a time.
And then his excited, 'this is awesome' face, the other day I saw Larin making this face at him so I know where he learned it. He also screams while doing this like "YEAH!!!". I often wonder where in the world I found this little one!
So I got the Nutrisystem stuff and was a little disappointed about how much extra food you have to buy to go with the food you already bought since you pay a bit for it but since I'm only doing it this month I'll live. I chose to only do this system for a month because the dietitian I saw (for my 'imaginary' diabetes that has disappeared) says that it takes a month for the body to stop craving your usual foods and get used to the smaller more spaced out portions. I figure having the Nutrisystem to help that first tough month will be good. So my before pic is a little outdated but I didn't feel the need to take a new one, that's just mean:) But here's the starting stats, I'm a little ashamed but it can only get better!
Weight:156lbs.- Yikes only five pounds away from my full term pregnancy weight!
Waist:32.5 in.
Hips:41 in.
Legs:25 in.
Arms:14.5 in.
Bust: Ha, like I'd tell you that one anyway!
I'll post the new(hopefully a bit smaller) stats in two weeks and admit my exercise, no lies!!

Starting weight loss...

So I decided to start blogging about my new hardship, I am trying to get my pre-baby body back!! I ordered Nutrisystem and will be working out hopefully five days a week. I figure if I had to report to someone then I would try harder. My body image has always been skewed so while you may think I look just fine I see what I used to be and am sad about it, Larin says he doesn't notice or care but I do! Embarrassingly enough only two of my pants actually fit so I am doing this for my self-esteem and overall health. I will be reporting back every two weeks and don't worry I will still do normal Charlie updates! So next blog will be once I receive the Nutrisystem and will have the dreaded before picture, starting weight and measurements! Wish me luck!

Very First Halloween

Halloween Day began with us packing up and heading down to Springville to see the newest addition to the Harris clan, Samantha Marie, Sherwin and Laurie's daughter. They had a little get together to have her blessed. She is soo itty bitty and ADORABLE! Here are some pictures from that.

Here's a closer one of the oldest Sabrina holding the youngest Samantha in her dress.We had a lunch with family and friends then headed back home to get ready for Halloween.
Here's some of Charlie in his Jack-Jack Incredible costume. I didn't realize until I put him in it that putting velcro on the i might not have been the best idea. He figured he could pull it off pretty fast so we had to safety pin it.

See he is trying to eat it here. I made Larin hold up the cape because it was soo cute!
All bundled up and ready to go!!This is everyone we went trick or treating with, friends and all their kids, we had quite a big bunch! A few witches, vampires, fairy princesses, skeletons, a chicken, a monkey, a biker and Jack-Jack.
This is my friends brother Jubal who sat outside like this holding a candy bowl and jumping up at the last minute to scare poor trick or treaters, what a meanie!Charlie in the stroller after my arms gave out from carrying him all night!It was a pretty exciting Halloween, Charlie stayed up way past his bedtime but was too cute to be mad at!!
