Worst Blogger Ever!!!

So it has been a really long time since I wrote on here. A lot has happened though. We went to my 10 year high school reunion in New Orleans. It was really weird though. I felt like I was at a high school function again.  While we were down there, my brother in law called and told us that our dog Princess died. We cut our trip a day early and flew back. Changing the ticket cost almost $200.  Our other dog Max, who is normally very hyper, was very sad and depressed. We made the hard decision to get a new dog. She is a Havanese (look it up). She is a pure bred little cutie. But still remains unnamed :(  

Last weekend, we went back to New Orleans for Arena Bowl XXII (it is like the Superbowl, but for Arena football). We had sooooo much fun. We got to meet up with some friends and had a blast. We had connecting flights on the way back to Dallas. The flight was not full, so Preston had his own seat on the way to Houston, and on the way to Dallas he slept the whole way.

Preston has moved up to the toddler class at school and is sleeping on a mat instead of a crib.

I guess that is all for now :)

Fourth of July 2008

There was a parade down the street from our house this morning. Preston liked the motorcycles and the dogs that were in the parade.

Playing with Isa

Preston got to play with his cousin.  She is four months younger than him, but they had a great time!

Weight loss

All last week I was on South Beach Phase 1. I blew it because I went out on Saturday for my birthday.  My birthday was on Monday, and I just haven't gone back on the diet.  I went to the doctor today and I weigh about 16 pounds less than I did before I had Preston.  That is exciting, but I know that for me it is not just about how much I weigh, but how I look.  I am very happy that I am exercising now unlike before the baby when I ceased all activity. I am even thinking of joining the adult ballet class again in August.

The next thing is when to have another baby. Is there really a right time? This seems harder than deciding the first time. I want to enjoy Preston.  It seems that it is more of a question of when to have another baby instead of if. We definitely want more children, but how much space does Preston need? I would love to hear some advice but I know that ultimately it is up to Chris and I.

Chris' Accident

Yesterday Chris was in an accident at work. A four foot panel feel on his back. He now has a bruised kidney and ribs.  He is able to drive but he does have a lot of restrictions. He can't stand for long, bend, twist, lift anything and much more. He has been given some time off from work and will have to go back to the doctor on Monday to re-evaluate his condition. He has to take a lot of medicine and he can't walk upright.
