October Already!?

It's hard to believe it is October already.  It seems weird to put a jacket or sweatshirt on when I go outside, but it's supposed to be 31 degrees here tonight.  I went out to our garden today and grabbed the last two habanero's.  It's been a busy first week of the month and here are a few tidbits... 


Evan got his four month photos done yesterday and I get to go back to see our photographer tomorrow to view and order a few.  So Excited!  Our photographer is so creative and Evan likes her alot, too.  Also, Evan went in for his four month wellness checkup today.  He had to get more shots.  Poor little guy.  He only screamed for a few minutes, though, and I did not shed a tear this time!  Much better than the two month round.  Proud of both of us :)  Also, he is 13 lbs, 3oz! 


And... here we are again.  I am back on another diet kick.  However, this time I've made a goal and I am going to stick with it.  I am very excited about it, too.  My goal is to lose 25 pounds by February 4th.  It sounds like alot in a short amount of time, but I think it is definitely attainable.  I joined loseit.com back in July but failed to follow through with my plan (at least it is a free service!), so I am starting over.  I basically have a certain amount of calories allotted per day, log everything I eat, what type of/how long I exercised, and that is it.  Pretty easy, I think.  I suppose it's like Weight Watchers, but I have never paid to use their service.  Rob also joined the website, however his goal is not as large as mine, but it is definitely nice to have someone else for support.  I spent my free time today looking for calorie friendly recipes and found quite a few that looked good.  So, in an effort to keep myself and Rob motivated, I will be updating our blog with our progress!
