South Beach Mami (and Papi)

So I have decided that I am out of shape and a little pudgy for where I like to be. I have started to work out again (slowly, but hey I am doing it!) and now feel that I need to get my eating habits into shape, too! Since my husband is the best husband *ever*, he agreed to go on the South Beach diet with me. I have never really been into dieting, but want to do a little "jump start" to motivate me!!

Current weight (boy I am brave)- 121.8 lbs (55.4 kg)

Clothes feel snug, especially around the middle and butt!

Stay tuned for my progress- my goal is to lose 5 pounds, but more importantly feel better about myself. Oh yeah, and we're going on vacation in 6 short weeks and I need to sport a sexy bikini, not the Mom-suit-with-a-skirt!

Potty Time!

"Hi Everyone, Matthaios here. Since I am such a big boy now, I decided on my own that it was time to pee in my little potty. I've had it for a week but wasn't so sure about it until today. Mom let me run around without my diaper and when it was time for me to go, I knew what to do! Mom clapped and cheered for me then called Dad at work to share my achievement! After that, Mom let me run around in my birthday suit until I pooped on the floor. Oh well, you gotta start somewhere."

More Birthday Pics!

Check out my scooter my Aunt Karen and Uncle Mike bought me!

Thanks Daddy for putting it together for me!

YUM! Mom baked me a cake and she let me lick the beater! I wasn't sure what to do at first, but she showed me and we had so much fun. She even let me double dip.

Look what my friend Daniel gave me- my first race track! It's loud and crazy- just like me!

Here's me and my favorite guy- my daddy.

TODAY I AM 2!

Matty here with some news. I just wanted to let you know that I am The Birthday Boy today.

Everyone at Grammy PJ's was singing to me. I liked it!

The BEST part was eating the blue balloons on my birthday cookie. No one even tried to stop me. What's up with that? I kinda like this birthday thing. Can we do it again, Mom?

So, I am officially a BIG BOY. Sorry Mom and Dad-no more baby stuff for me. Can I have the car keys? Ok, maybe not yet. Money for a date? Maybe later on.
