I’ve lost 21 pounds since Christmas and I wasnt really “trying”. No diets or any huge changes. But I did move away from a friend who was a bad influence as far as food habits. SO, I figured if I could lose that much without really trying then I could definitely lose 20 more if I give it my all. So I started this goal a few days ago and have already lost an additional 2 pounds! I am promising myself to just make better choices and only eat when I am hungry. If I start to get teh urge to munch on something, I will just go do something with my kids to keep myself busy. No munchies AND getting more excersise at the same time should do alot of good.

I’ve had such an interesting life, I really think I should write it all down sometime…..just hope I’ll get the inspiration one of these days.
I had never thought of making childrens clothing before I had my kids so this kind of surprised me. I REALLY believe that what I was meant to do in this world is make gorgeous and beautiful kids clothes. I have all these ideas and sometimes it keeps me awake for days with all these beautiful outfits running through my head. I get SO absolutely excited!! Problem is…I don’t know how to sew beyond the basics. I have a 5 yr old daughter who is such a princess kind of girl and I see all these great outfits on ebay that I want for her but I can’t even come close to affording them. So I think, I will just make them! WRONG! I have no clue where to start with all this stuff and I have no one to teach me and it just depresses me. Even if all I ever did was make dresses/outfits for my own daughter and never made a penny of profit, I’d be thrilled.
