Bored




I haven't played Volleyball in forever and I miss
it so..We didn't have practice Sunday so now I have
to wait until tomorrow.. Can't wait..Thus far all
we are doing is practicing.. Our official first
tournament is April 29th. I really hope she puts
me at outside position but where ever she puts me I
will be more than happy to play. I am just happy to be
a part of a team and feel productive.

Hubs didn't shoot this weekend. It looks like it won't
be a while til he shoots. They will have practice but
no competitions for a couple of months which means he
might travel in the summer!

I'm starting to get cabin fever bad and I think it
might get worse. Hubs and I are thinking about
selling the truck and downsizing to one car just
because it would save us a ton of money..Gas alone
for that truck is 50 dollars every time he fills
up. If we do get rid of the truck we are thinking
about getting a little car just to get to and from
work for Wade. I know I just sit at home and my car
just sits in the car port but I like having it just
in case. I don't know..Decisions, decisions.

Lately my little family has been doing portion
control with our food. I must say it is extremely
hard but well worth it. I can tell a difference
in my mood and my body. I hope I can keep it up
because for the first time in a while I feel
confident in my self since having my love. Don't
get me wrong when we do go out to eat (which is
rare now a days) I will have a soda but I still
portion what I eat. I'm oh so proud of us. I am
watching my portions super close this week because
this weekend hubs and I are going on our first
date without the baby so I would love to splurge
just a little bit. :) Thanks to my amazing family
who offered to watch him so we could spend some
time together. It's going to be so weird not having
Tucker with us. Now the key to our date is not to
talk about the baby and concentrate on us. Can't
wait but I will miss my little bubs!

Wooo Whoooo



Volleyball Sunday went great..I only played at 60% because
I didnt want to reinjure my knee and be out for another 2
weeks. I played and it felt great. I have volleyball
tonight and I hope I can play at 100%. We might be playing
Saturday against some youngens but it will be great practice.
Our official first tournement with grown up (lol) is
on April 29th! So excited. Love my team!

Wade is doing great. He has physical theropy twice a
week and is doing excellent. We are both starting to
walk and excercise regularly just to stay in shape
because pretty soon Tucker will be moving like crazy
and we need to keep up.

Wade has decided to rejoin the shooting team. They
invited him to shoot this weekend so hopefully we
can work out our conflicting schedules with volleyball
and shooting. He loves it and I want him to get back
in to it but he know I love volleyball and want to
continue playing..Luckily we have great friends and
awesome family who I am sure would love to watch my
little bubs!

Life is good!

Yay




My knee feels great..With a lot of rest and icing(and a prayer
from a complete stranger) my knee is feeling oh so good.
Volleyball practice tonight and I am super excited to
get back on the court. We have to get ready for a
tournement we should be having next weekend. My
friend Lindsay and I are looking oh so beautiful
in our spandex. Haha

Last night we went to my friends housewarming
party and had a blast. I love the ladies I
have in my life. None of them have kids of
their own but they love Tucker and they love me.
They are so amazing and I couldn't ask for
a better group of girls!

So Wade and I have started our new eating
healthy ways and that has not been fun but
I feel good. It consist of watching what
we eat, we have no cokes, candy, or sweets
in the house at all, trying not to have
to much fast food and portion control.
I must say portion control is kicking
my butt but it is working. For the past
week I have monitored my portion conrtol
to the exact measurments and yesterday
I was about to have a break down so I let
my self have a happy meal and let me tell
you it made me oh so happy.. Sad but true.
I recieved a toy in my meal as well. It's
a struggle but it the long run it's good
for all of us because I want to show Tucker
to eat healthy.

Tucker is now five months and he had his
Dr. appt Friday. He's 26 inches and 15.6
pounds and is doing great. He had to get
two shot but took them like a champ.
He fussed at first but I fed him and
he was A ok after that. Then Wades
work had a health expo thing so we
went to that.

I have offically booked my plane ticket
to Texas. Thanks mommy and daddy for
the early birthday gift.I miss my
family especially my beautiful nieces!
I love them so! I will be there for
like 12 days I believe! Long but
needed for all the people who want to see me!

*sigh* good times!

Well my knee isn't doing what I would like it to. I attempted to practice last night and when I was
trying to just do warm up laps my knee wasn't having it. Tears welled up in my eyes and I sat on
the sideline but then I had to suck it up and went and cheered/kept score for my team. Hoping if I
rest it for a week and ice it I should be good to go. There is a tournament on the 26th so I'm hoping
I can play.

Today was a great day. Woke up to a text from my cousin Michelle inviting me for lunch and a
play date. She drove down for a yummy lunch and a relaxing chat in the park with our boys.
Much,much needed! Plus one oft amazing girlfriends brought me a yummy cupcake from my
favorite place, Sprinkles. Trust me it was eaten quickly.

This week I'm hoping to get a jump start on eating better and not be so lazy. I know once
I start I can do it.

Oh so excited to be able to buy my plane ticket home to Texas for a little summer vacation.
Love it. It's my parents birthday present to me.

Ya know people say if you think positive thoughts positive things will happen so maybe I
should give that a try. Hoping to report positive news for you next time.

LIfe

I'm am excited to report that I have made the Camp Pendleton Women's volleyball varsity team..Getting back into volleyball is awesome. It's the perfect pick me up that I really needed. I love being a stay at home mom but there are sometime where I just need me time with no hubby or baby. Volleyball is that escape for me..Is that wrong?

But last week I did something to my knee and now the Dr. told me to rest so I didnt go to volleyball today..Sad... but I will go tomorrow to support my ladies. I hope my knee will get better.

On a side note last night we went out to eat and my teammate Lindsay's sister came and whenever I left to go she asked if she could pray over my knee and I said sure..She placed her hand on my knee and said a prayer..I thought that was really sweet because she doesn't know me but took the time to do that. Very sweet!

I seem to be struggling still with my weight..Everyone says it's just because I had a baby but I can only use that excuse for so long. So I have taken the first step and I'm going to see a nutritionist to help me out. Wish me luck because my goal is to lose 10-15 pounds by June. Why June? Because that when I'm going to Texas for a birthday trip and it will be super hot and I don't think wearing long sleeves is the best idea.

Well off to grocery shop with the boys,then dinner, and watching a movie with hubs tonight!
