Some of my latest creations...


Journaling says - "You have always loved when I sing Itsy Bitsy for you, but one day you started doing the motions! It took me a minute to realize you were requesting it! Now, we say "Ryder, Itsy Bitsy!" and you start!"


Journaling: "Anytime I try to take your picture, you stop what you are doing as soon as you see the camera, and crawl toward me...full speed."



Journaling Says: "I have always been very loyal, a one man kinda woman, but this year I'm begging...May I have 2 Valentines?"

Progress!

So, this pic was taken May 31, 2008. 148.5. I still weighed this at the beginning of January. I had made no progress whatsoever in 6 months and was so frustrated.


I decided to cut out all fried foods, since that was my weakness. No potato chips, breaded chicken sandwiches, no chinese, no fried rice, no onion rings, NO GREASE!

The result....

139.0!!!!! WOOT!

I am so excited!! So...to celebrate, I decided to do something drastic!

Before:



After:


So 9.5 pounds lighter and a box of hairdye later, I'd say overall it was a fun weekend!

Playtime!

Ryder loves baseball...at least he loves eating it!







He absolutely loves his monkey from Nana...

Playtime with his helicopter!




You love your helicopter and the sounds it makes. Nana and Pawpaw got it for you for Christmas. You love to put the balls in and listen to the sounds. Sometimes you just put them in and take them out, over and over again. You are getting so smart!
