Things in my life right now!

So I notice I have been blogging about the BIG events in my life and leaving out the little events...The "Every day" events...So with that said here are a few things that are happening...

 Herbalife has slowly changed my life! I have been doing a weight loss challenge for almost 7 weeks and I have lost almost 10lbs and who knows how many inches! I feel AMAZING! I am FINALLY at my pre-pregnancy weight! I am now eating like I should have been my whole life and the encouragement and support I have recieved has helped me stay focused to reach my goals!

I just recently bought this at Barnes N Noble and I am SO excited to start using it! Eva Mae has become super picky with eating her veggies and I want to make sure that she is getting all the vitamins and healthy foods as possible. This cook book helps to incorporate veggies and fruit into the everyday yummy foods that kids and adults love! 

Eva Mae and I planted our Aloe plant today! Its name is Aloe Alin. We picked this up at the Aquarium last weekend. I was shocked to read that Aloe helps treat over 200 human health issues! Who knew! I really want to try and plant more little plants like this every once and a while...I feel like it would be 1 more plant helping out the environment.

So Dainty has also become a piece of me. I have had a steady flow of orders and each order I get I am SO excited to start! This is a picture of my last order...I am in LOVE with the headband. The flower/feather part can actually come off into a clip. I sadly didn't get the opportunity to put my products in the store that had contacted me...they said that they already have product like mine in their store...whatever that means...She did say that she would keep me posted on if she would like them to be in her store when the other products sell out...so we will see...In the mean time I am happy just making other people happy with the orders that I do have coming in : )



That is just some of what is going on in my life right now...Lords knows that really is just the tip of the ice berg!

Easter

We enjoyed Easter at my grandmothers house who lives in Long Beach. I was a gorgeous day! My sister came in from Texas for the weekend, as well as my step brothers are here visiting from England for 3 weeks! We had an AMAZING breakfast! Pancakes, eggs, bagels, crumpits, bacon, strawberries and cream! I was SO full. Eva Mae did her first egg hunt. She Loved every minute of it too. She has this new "I'm Super Surprised" facial expression that is hilarious! She made that face everytime she found an egg! We were able to spend the majority of the day laying on the lawn blowing bubbles and just soaking up all the warm sun!

Here are some pictures:

The "AH! Oh my Gosh I'm SO surprised" Look : )




Eva Mae turns 1!


It is hard to believe that my little girl is 1! Her birthday party was a success, thankfully! Of course the day had a ton of bumps! I was stressed out and nothing seemed to be going the way I had planned...I was supposed to have family come over to my house to watch Eva Mae while I went to pick up a few things and help set up with Dustin at the park...That didn't happen. I had to make a few phone calls for people to help me pick up the last items we needed...I didn't get to the park until 11:30..the party started at 12..PLUS once I got there it started raining, then the gal who was supposed to take pictures cancelled on me literally at noon, So needless to say I had a full on melt down at the park because like I said at the time I felt like nothing was going as planned...Thankfully I had a couple of friends there to help me rush everything over to a covered table so the rain didn't ruin anything...we set everything up just in time! The day ended up being beautiful and sunny! I had some friends take pictures. Dustin and I were able to really enjoy ourselves and celebrate our special Eva Mae : )

Here are some photos on Eva Mae in her Lady Bug outfit I made for her:
 Family Photo! I am SO happy with how everything turned out!
