Checking in...

Lilly is in bed and Tommy is playing a gig tonight so I am enjoying some quiet time and thought it would be a good time to update the ole bloggity blog.  I can't help it-I can't stay away for long!  I will be back on a regular basis after Labor Day though I promise.  I have been working on a few posts that I hope to be finished soon.  My goal is to stock up on posts so I can take my time on the ones that will take me longer (like my post about our vacation!)  I have so many photos right now that are waiting to be edited.  It's been so busy around here lately that I haven't had the extra time-but I am working on it!

Here is what we have been up to...

I am making my own baby food!  It's so fun and I cannot get over how easy it is!  I am planning a separate post about my baby food making!

Tommy has officially started Tommy Smith Percussion!  I am so proud of him at how hard he is working at it.  We have hit up Vista Print (I loved this site during my wedding) and scored some free stuff to help advertise!  His website is almost ready to be launched and I am excited to have my own head shot photo shoot with my hubby for it.  There are a lot of blogs in the works about Tommy Smith Percussion so stay tuned.  I am even hoping to get Tommy into the blog world!  

I won't give too much away because I have a post coming up about a little girl who is turning 5 months (I KNOW!) but Lilly has been changing so much over the past few weeks.  She has started solids and has come a long way with them in just a few short weeks.  She is also mobile.  She went from not rolling at all to rolling all over the place in a day.  I am looking forward to sharing more updates about the little peanut!

So you've heard about Tommy and Lilly-so what have I been up to?  Well besides whipping up a mean sweet potato puree I have still been trying to get into some sort of schedule re: working out.  Now that Lilly is on more of a set schedule with a set bedtime I think I am going to be golden.  I am still no where near where I want to be regarding my weight loss.  I went shopping for some work clothes today and came home with a bra.  I must have tried everything on in the store.  I admit the bra is a start-you can never underestimate the power of a good bra-but needless to say I walked out of the store almost in tears.  I think part of the problem is that I don't know how to dress THIS body.  I need to work on that.  I know I've posted before about this but honestly I need to work harder at it.  So that's what you will be hearing about on my end.  I am officially kicking myself in the arse (it's not hard to miss) and getting back on the fitness wagon.  Working on a post that really gets down to the nitty gritty as to why I may not be loosing the weight and what I need to do to get my butt in gear.  It will be really telling I promise.  

Now that I have rambled I am going to go before I divulge too much of my up and coming posts. 

I will leave you with (as always) a few pictures of Lilly.  I know I am biased but she's is sooo stinkin cute!
