Holla Holla, someone's 30!

This past week we celebrated Shaun's birthday. The girls helped me pick out an ice cream cake and we had yummy not so good for you Chinese Food!
Ella especially loved singing "Happy Birthday" to her daddy first thing in the morning, and then again before eating cake.


We were also happy this week to attend the temple and celebrate Valentine's with home made chocolate covered strawberries. The girls enjoyed dipping the strawberries in the chocolate.
The girls are lots of fun these days! Never a dull moment in our household.

2 more lbs down!

Slow and steady, but in an effort to keep myself honest, I'm two more pounds down for a total of 17 pounds. Only 23 to go! So exciting! My jeans fit much better, but I go to the gym and still feel like a blob compared to some of these other women. Oh well, only comparing myself to me, no one else. Easier said than done, but nevertheless that is always the goal.
