Testing...

Okay~ So I know I probably sound like an infomercial..... But I'm just so happy with the results how can I not!!! :D I have been at a plateau and unable to loose any more weight for the past 3 months... So, for the past 5 days I have been on a 'loose 10 pounds in 10 days' - its something my dad had found and tried. Since he is a health fanatic I figured it was probably safe and healthy. Wow am I so thankful for it!!! Its day 6 and I feel great and can actually see the results. At first I just saw the weight going down but still didn't see a difference- but day five I felt the difference! The first few days I did get hungry in between meals and craved soo many good foods and sweets, but on day 5 they have you choose your own healthy foods with only 3 meals and no over eating. I realized I wasn't hungry just wanted yummy tasting food. But also realized my body craved healthy food so it could continue feeling good. So day 6 I'm glad to be back on its foods and lose the last 5 pounds then continue to eat the healthy meals I've done before! Its soo nice to be back under my pre-pregnancy weight and almost at my weight from when I got married!!! I actually have clothes I can wear again too! (We've been tight on cash for both of my pregnancy's so money for new clothes has been VERY limited, so I haven't had that luxury of new clothes for all the 'in between' pregnancy and my old weight.)

Anyways~ I just had to share that I've found an awesome 10 day diet that helps jump start the weight loss process so you can continue on. And since I know people say that once you're off the diet the pounds come back on... I'm not posting this for a month after Ive been off the diet so I can truly update you on how it has worked! :)

June/ July

Month of June~ We spent the time staying at my Dad's while Mark worked on creating 2 iphone games and looking for work. Amazingly everything went according to the time frame we figured. The only thing a little off from what we expected was the time we'd be staying back in Utah. We were thinking maybe more long term this time.... But of course are open and flexible since we wanted to get away from the work Mark has been doing with Global Drug Testing and find something he loved and enjoyed. Hence the dedication to creating the games to up his resume. We have been truly blessed with success, for he found work in the exact area he has experience in. Which is programming iphone game in the software unity and C#. Here a sample of his game- he did the cutesy artwork too :)

In the meantime, I was able to visit with a few friends and get caught up! But sadly enough didnt get pics :( And.... perfect timing.... I was able to attend the last of my brothers wedding!!! Jason and Ashley~ they are soo cute together!!

So I attended that with the girls the first week of July~ Which was nice cuz I also got to visit extended family which I hardly get to visit with since Ive been out of state. During this time, we packed up our stuff once again and Mark drove it down to Arizona, Scottsdale where he began work the first of July. So as nice as it was to stay and visit family, it was great to have my lil family reunited with their daddy. The girls are a little cranky after awhile when daddy isn't there to play with 'em. They love their daddy :)

So that oddly brings us up to date... I miss out on so much lil stuff without the Internet to jot it down. Sadly I've been so busy I haven't been able to take many pics either. But life is good here in Arizona. The heat isn't bad at all... humidity is a different story ;) The girls have adjusted well. Aubrilynn is sleeping wonderfully in her toddler bed!!! She sleeps 11- 12 hours nightly. And its soo cute~ after her naps or sleep she stays in her bed til someone comes and gets her. She just plays and talks.... even though she has a whole room of toys and books- she just stays there!!! (wonder how long this will last) Kaysia sleeps well at night- she fusses a few times just wanting her binky. But she goes to bed between 8:30- 9 and I don't get there til 11pm~ so that cuts out on my sleep and they wake early each morning... so oh well, my body just has to kick into overdrive. But welcome to life right :) Anyway~ Aubri is talking up a storm!!! She communicates very well and can express herself. Its so cute, she even says cool in the 'right' context :) She has even started to bob swim! its so cute, she bobs in the water by herself (life jacket thing in suit) and she just giggles and thinks its awesome cuz she is doing it herself! Cute Kaysia is just growin like crazy and is full of smiles and starting to roll over! I love my girls so much!!! My cute lil' family, one day we'll get a family pic! ;)
