Back Home to Hawaii



Sorry, I forgot to announce that we are BACK in Hawaii! It's been about 2 weeks now. Derek is enjoying 3 classes for the "first term" and will start Fall semester in September. Jocelyn is loving being back... getting to see friends, meet some that were just born, and play in the SUN! She honestly grabs our hands and takes us to the door so we can go outside! She's chatting our ears off! She gives kisses now! Waves all the time and had done 2 baby signs. More and All Done! We are working to do more... I really think it's my fault that she doesnt know more because I have been slacking off and not doing everything constantly! But I haven't given up yet!

I am babysitting a 10M old boy named Cache ($CHA CHING$) He stays with us on the mornings of Mon-Thursday. I am lucky to get to use my friend Shanae's old double wide stroller! :> So we just pumped up the tires and we are off! Shanae & I have been going to the gym M-TH 8-10pm! So I am gonna try to keep up with my handsome hubby in the game we call weight loss! I am also not partaking of "Animal based proteins" for a while! Aka DETOX Then we will do as the Word of Wisdom advises and eat meat sparingly! But, being a woman, my results are a lot slower than his... but I will keep you posted. Once I'm proud enough of my accomplishments you should be able to NOTICE with out me saying anything! haha Believe it or not I have lost 20lbs but have a ways to go! I have learned a lot about myself and how it feels to be not thin. It's a tough battle but I'm slowly building up the confidence that I CAN LOOSE IT! It seems impossible at times, but I have great friends & family who beleive in me and are convincing me that I can do it. So it may take a while but I WILL GET THERE! Meanwhile, I'll be seein YOU at the gym or the salad bar! :>

Derek gets a GOLD STAR for being so helpful lately! I love him and really appreciate all the assistance he has been giving around the house and with Jocelyn! I love you D*ROCK!

I have plenty more to talk about and more pictures to share with you, but I will have to do it later because it's WORK OUT time! Love to all!

These pictures are, yet again, brought to you by Shanae Jones Photography! THANKS GiRL!

This whole having babies thing just kills those teenage curves. I gained 60 pounds with my first pregnancy along with hundreds of stretch marks- and I always thought I was the skinny type that couldn't put on weight to save her life!

It comes off, bit by bit. Hang in there!! It feels so good to fit into old skinny clothes again!

And of course you always look way stunning either way.

And my goodness what a beautiful child you have!!

love always
