    Yes!  Very excited!  Today is my 59-day mark.  :)

    We got the family from NJ all settled and travel arrangements set.  And I've started ordering un-healthy amounts of things from Vistaprint... but it's okay, because I've only used free codes.  ;)

    Mine isn't my AW but I'm so excited!!  My friend had her baby girl last night at 6:14.  She is a healthy 6lbs 15oz!  Marleigh Reene!  I can't wait to get to see her!!!

    I got flowers from Bill yesterday.  It's even got a little bear hugging the vase.

    I have now gotten every bit of the cruise taken care of, from the passport information (thank you, government officials in Philly!) to the pre-cruise travel plans to the activities.  In fact, I got to change over to the Atlantis Beach Day this week.  I'm excited about this one because I really want to stay there so this will allow us to see if it's a place we want to go to.

    I bought a box last night!! :) yay. it's needs a heavy bit of decorating! but...i finally found one that i can lock and that is large enough and cheap enough. I wanna say it's about 15" tall. maybe? I dunno lol. But yay :)



    NWR: FI and I finished day 3 of P90 last night. And I didn't get to bed until 1am...odd thing is, when I woke up this morning at 6 I was wide awake.I think i'm finally getting my energy level back. OH and I can see some definition in my abs already. YAY :)

    Brianna - 59 days!  Holy cow - how exciting. 

    Ashlee - is that box for your card box?  How are you decorating it?  I envy DIYers.  I have no creative abilities.

    YAY everyone for their checks & AWs!

    Mine:
    On Monday, I officially put my deposit on my cupcakes/cake from Texas Star Bakery!

    I'm just counting down to a big day Feb 5 - getting together with my MOH & BMs (and maybe mom) for lunch and buying their dresses! (and that night, my band is playing a show).  That is gonna be an awesome day!

    Lacey- YES! Laughing 

    I haven't found the EXACT design that I want to do it...but i have an idea. it's a pretty sturdy box. but that just means i get to use my power tools to make the slit :) hehe.

    I've only gotten as far as, I know it's going to be covered in fabric, hunter green most likely. And have a few orange and brown accents. The buttons, i'll have to remove, but i looked and they will just pop off :) I'll super glue the lid...of course....but i'm not 100% sure yet. I'm just glad i found a box! :)

    My AW is NWR at all... we bought tile on Sunday to redo part of our house!  We're retiling some areas, and then ripping up carpet in two rooms.  On top of that, we are rearranging a few rooms (dining room & office) and I'm really excited about it!   
  • edited December 2011
    Exciting things! I like the card box Ashlee. I'm coffee obsessed, can't wait to see what it's like when it's done.

    Brianna those are pretty...

    Tiffany did you ever tell me what happened to the elephants?

    Deepthi - I didn't know that you asked, I must have missed it...sorry!   I just got tired of looking at him one day.   Someone else is more than welcome to pick him up if they want... Brianna found him. :)

    Thanks Deepthi :) i'm excited about it. I think i'm going to cover it in a satin-y type of fabric. That way it kinda looks shiney...but not TOO shiney. I think i have a good idea of what it will look like. I'm going to try and pick up the fabric this weekend, when FI is with me. That way he can put his input in on it...even though I know he probably doesnt care lol

    YAY for peter pan!! :) That's SO exciting! I love the zoo, the last time i went though, i had 40 kids with me...all kindergarteners....i couldn't enjoy myself :(

    I would totally go the zoo right now for $5!
     
    But I think i'm pushing it this weekend as it is. We have to be at my parents house by 9:30am saturday, then we have my nephews birthday party in Lewisville at 1. Then we have dinner with Alex's father, Sunday I have to be in grapevine by 8:30am to photograph an event...and i probably wont be done there until 4pm. :( i hate packed weekends...they stress me out!

    I just got the invite for my shower in the mail, so excited!!  I also ordered a bunch of items that have been sitting in my favorites on Etsy (thank you bonus!) Including handkerchiefs for the moms and these items to work in FI's comic interest

    I've always been an active person, and I've never had trouble getting BACK into shape...once I fall out...it's not like a six pack or anything no where close...but they're there...I can see the outerlines and then there's now a FAINT line just above my belly button and just below. :) yay

    Lauren- Those are so cute! :)

    It took me about 4 weeks to really start to see the definition.  :-)  I had to lose some fat on top of the muscle first!

    Congrats ladies on all the awesome checks.

    Brianna, your W it up comment made me chuckle.

    I really have nothing which is sad since we are basically at the 70 day mark.  I have lots of things I need to do but none of which do I actually have the motivation or desire to do. Wow total opposite of AW whoops.
