Sorry I haven't updated this since August and I don't even know if anybody still follows this blog, but I intend to try to get better at it. Blake is growing like a weed and is now 19 months. He is into everything and his vocabulary has just exploded in the last two months. These are a few examples of what he says: "ock" for clock, "Mer" is Meredith, "phone," "mote" for remote, "hold" when he wants you to hold him, "down" when he wants down, and of course "no!" He actually started saying "yeah" this past week which sounds really funny but is incredibly cute. Blake loves cars, clocks, phones and remotes. If you come to visit, please keep your electronics hidden because if you don't, you will be automatically surrendering them to Blake, hahaha!
I am doing well and my leg and back are gradually getting better. I have joined the "Great Weight Loss Challenge" at work and am hoping to lose a little weight. We are on teams consisting of 10-14 members each. There is a weigh-in each week and the team that loses the most weight at the end of 8 weeks receives a cash prize to split. It's not much but makes the challenge a little more fun :) Weight loss is something I've struggled with my entire life and is apparently something that will continue to plague me. I truly enjoy food and eating so it's never easy for me to lose weight. I am also a "volume eater" which means I have an extremely hard time with portion control. I almost feel selfish saying that since there are so many people in this world that don't have enough to eat. I am thankful that I have food to eat. A little too thankful it seems ;) Please pray for me and wish me luck that I am able to overcome the weight loss hurdles that I face. I will definitely keep you updated!
