Not sure its blog worthy...but....

I started a boxing class. 6am. For those that know me well you know that is not my best hour. BUT, I am loving it! Even though every single muscle in my body is sore and I have to be in bed by 8:30pm every night just to survive, it really is super fun. Makes me feel tough. And if it helps me drop a few LBS then I really will love it!
Here's to tough chicks!
(Maybe I'll be one some day...)

How did we get here?

How did we go from this.....

To this!!?
Olivia started 1st grade last week. My sweet little chubby baby is not so little anymore. (Or chubby!) And it seemed to have happened in the blink of an eye. I should be loving that she gets to spend a full day at school now but I'm not. I miss her.


And how 'bout this one?
Didn't I just birth her?
Nope, she's a big Preschooler now!
Today was her very first day and she loved it.
I thought she might have a little hesitation but I was wrong. I got a sweet kiss and a hearty "goodbye mom" and she was off and running.
Good thing its only two days a week for a couple hours.
I'm not ready to be home alone!


I'm the luckiest mom in the world to have two beautiful girls. I hope to have a bunch more just like them someday...but if not....I'm still the luckiest.

Seven Wonderful Years....

Today DuVall and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary. Looking back I never could have imagined all that we've been through together so far on our journey. Incredible joys, deep sorrows, so much stronger because of both. Not a day goes by that I don't realize how lucky I am to be married to my best friend.
No one can make me laugh harder, no one makes me feel more safe, and no one loves you more than I do DuVall! Thank you for seven wonderful years. I look forward to many, many, many, many more!

I'm a big kid now...

Abigail had a birthday!
Now she's a big three year old!
I cannot believe it.
We celebrated at her grandparents house with swimming, BBQ, cake, ice cream and presents.
It was a great day.


To our little sunshine,
You brighten our days and make us laugh.
You are such a bright spot in the world and we know you will do great things.
Please stay little, a little longer.
Oh, how we love you!

Happy Birthday Abbi-girl!
