Look at those cheeks and that double chin! I can't stop kissing her. She shakes her head back and forth like she is saying no -it is so adorable. We tried some food this week and found out she hates carrots! She is weighing in at 17'4 I swear she weighs more than that! She is finaally sleeping through the night since we moved her in with Kenna. I am loving all the rolls and dimples! She is sitting up by herself and has a cute chubby butt for an anchor. She makes me smile everyday! She definately gets lots of attention around here!

Five Months Already!

Ava Lu Lu turned five months this week. When I took her to the doctor she weighed 16lbs 10oz. She is definately not starving! I started her on rice ceral this week and she loved it. Time is going by too fast. Here are a few of my lastest favorite shots of her.

Everytime I get motivated to get back on my diet a candy filled holiday pops up and I find myself hiding in the pantry eating my childrens candy! I am tempted just to throw it all away because I have zero will power! I also threw my friend an ice cream party and guess who had all the left over toppings and ice cream. Thats right me!!! I kick my own butt three times a week at the gym but I can't stop eating like a teenage boy having a growth spurt. Sometimes I eat more than John at dinner and it kind of freaks me out!!! If anyone has any suggestions please save me from eating myself to death!!! I have to add that I love watching the Biggest loser. I am usually sitting in my recliner eating cookie dough while I cheer them on.

Anyway onto Easter. So there I was at my parents house for our Easter egg hunt. All the cousins decided they were going to race to see who was the fastest. I was trying to show off so I decided to race with the 7 and 8 year olds. On your mark get set go! I took two strides and I found myself rolling across the grass. My legs somehow got stuck in the grass and didn't move with the rest of me. Very humiliated I started laughing and snorting until I looked down and found that I had got grass stains on my favorite pants.

If that wasn't enough to humble me I then decided to race with my sister Cindy. I have to add that she is about 3 inches shorter than me. After one step she left me in her dust. She says her speed is all due to her welch muscly legs. To ease my pain I went inside and had my second piece of cake and fell asleep on the couch.
