It's been a while since I've posted but it's really b/c nothing has been going on that is exciting. Ryland is testing me a lot lately, but it's b/c he's 3. That's his job. How I react to him is another thing. I've gotten very frustrated because I feel like all I do is discipline. I'm trying to remember that consistency is the key. We are soooo much alike in our personalities that we are both determined to have the last word. Ugh.

We joined the Y last week and Ryland loves going to the playroom. I don't like it while I'm there, but once I get through it, I'm glad I did. I have really let myself go and it is definitely showing by my getting tired doing the small exercises. I meet a good friend and work out with her. It makes the time go by much faster.

That's pretty much it for now.

Have a great week...I'm on my way out to go to the Y!

Welcome Little Logan!!!

I now have a new nephew!!! Logan James Johnson was born today and he is my sister's 3rd little boy. I am so excited for them!

My sister is awesome! Her husband was out of town for work when she went into labor. She drove her boys to their babysitters house and then herself to the hospital and delivered her sweet little boy. I am so impressed with her and so proud! Ash - you're my hero! Thankfully, Erik was able to come home today and now they are all together.

Love you guys!!!

2010

I can't believe it's now 2010! I remember when everyone was worried about Y2K. I will have my 15 yr high school reunion this year! Wow, that makes me feel old!

We finished the 2009 year great! Ryland had a great birthday and we celebrated the greatest birthday of all....Jesus! For Christmas, we had some friends over and exchanged gifts with friends and family. We had a birthday cake for Jesus that was delicious!

Ryland got his green car, aka, power wheels vehicle. He LOVES driving it around the yard and cul-de-sac and he's a pretty good driver...for a 3 year old!

I always laugh at New Year's resolutions b/c I think they are made to be broken. :o) But seriously, I am going to try to lose some of this weight. I've got to get back to going to the gym and eating better. I did it before and lost 30 pounds. I know I can do it again....it's just going to be hard and I have to want it more than I want the food!!! If any of you struggle with food, you know what I mean!

I hope everyone has a great year this year! I pray that God will grow me(spiritually that is) and help me know how to teach Ryland more about Him.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year to everyone!!!!
