I'm not even going to talk about how bad at blogging I am...I'm pretty sure I start every other post with that because it is just SO hard for me to stay motivated enough to update...However, I know I NEED to do it so, I suppose I will, lol.
So many things have happened since my last post, I don't even know where to begin!!!
This past summer Ryan, Scarlet, and I took a trip to the west to visit family in Wyoming and Nebraska..Scarlet was AMAZING on both plane trips there and back...Due to the time difference and flight times, we were all pretty jet-lagged the first week we were with family as well as the first week back home in Virginia lol. We just couldn't seem to get enough sleep!!
Ryan started school back up in September and I've been running my own mobile cosmetology business called KF Beauty LLC! I'm loving it because I do MORE than just cutting hair like I was doing at Salon DC in Lexington...dunno if I ever posted about working there, but, if I didn't it's ok. It's not really worth my time to talk about! Things didn't work out there but it ended up being a blessing in disguise because not only have I gotten more clients on my own, but, I'm also able to be with my sweetie pie Scarlet (and the dogs Suka and Ella) every day AND help earn a little extra income for our family...Because Ryan is in school full time and playing soccer for SVU (he's captain again!) he has very little time to be able to work, so, that's another reason I am so blessed to be doing my cosmetology work because every little bit of money helps!!
Scarlet is over 10 months old and is the sweetest, cutest, funniest little baby I know!! And yes, I know, I'm biased because I'm her mother...but seriously. Lol. She's been crawling since Father's Day (great present for her daddy!) And started walking just before she hit 10 months old! She is SO smart! She can say "mom, momma, dad, dada" and one time said, "hot!" to me when I was asking about her bath water lol. She loves to feed herself (and LOVES any types of food, I'm blessed to have a non-picky eater!) and her two best friends are our huskies Suka and Ella. She absolutely loves playing with them and no matter what they do, at she will laugh hysterically hahaha. Oh gosh, I love her!
Ryan and I are trying to figure out what we want to do next year after he graduates from SVU. We're hoping we can find him a good job (we're looking all over the US) as well as a good place we'd like to live, somewhere we wouldn't mind settling down...I still can't believe we've lived in Virginia for almost a year and a half already! Time as FLOWN!
I also can't believe that Scarlet is almost a year old. It makes me happy, but also pretty sad at the same time. I'm grateful she's growing and is healthy, but, I want her to stay this cute little sweetie baby forever! She's my baby!!! Lol.
So, I know I posted my weight loss journey earlier and I was having some great results. But, for some reason or another I lost all sorts of motivation. Stopped working out (minus the occasional walks with Scarlet) and didn't really pay much attention to my eating habits (although I've never really been a "bad" eater, I eat healthy things, but, my weakness is carbs like pastas and breads!) and I've gained some weight back....I had gotten myself down to the 120's again (just 3 pounds away from my pre-pregnancy weight and 10 pounds away from my goal weight!!) but due to my lack of motivation have gained some back (although I still weigh less than I did before I started working out so I can at least be a little happy for that lol).
Anyway, tomorrow I will be starting Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred...I will (try to) keep updated on my results etc. and at the end I will post some before and after pics.
