Creepy crawley

I'm not even joking when I say this...

HENRY CRAWLED FOR THE FIRST TIME TODAY!!

I'm so sad that I am the one to see it, not his momma and dada. I am debating whether or not to tell them because I want her to see it first. She is kinda anal about that sort of stuff.

But I mean he was on his little blanket he plays on, and I look down and he is crawling like 5 feet away to get his toy!! I started freaking out....HENRY, YOU'RE CRAWLING!! And he is just smiling away. Oh gosh, it was the most exciting thing I have ever seen. Besides seeing my neice crawl, but I'm sure I didn't see the first time for that.

In other news....it's no lie that I am 30 pounds (give a few more) overweight. This aint right. How can I want a child when I am in no shape to bear one? How can I complain about my pants size when I do nothing to change it? Huh? How?? Our apartment complex has a fitness center that I have never used....all I have to do is pay a one time fee of $25 dollars and I have access to it after hours, which is when I have time to go in there. So, I am gonna do that this week and start working out to lose this weight. I have to. It' s so important for me,. for mattie and as obedeince to God to take care of His temple.

I cant believe I saw Henry crawl. I mean I was so excited as if it was my own child. What it must be like to actually see that happen for your own kid! Gah what joy to be a mommy!! My time will come but ooooohhh I cannot wait until it does.

Aw, how precious!
And I like Chase too....plus Cameron really likes Jessica so he just needs to quit hooking up with other people cause his friends tell him to..ha, I way over analyze their relationships.
Weight gain is frustrating. Its so hard to get off. I haven't really put on wieght, only like four pounds, since we got married but I have been freaking out. I had to go get a pregnancy test last night(gulp), which was negative luckily, cause I am swelling i guess you could say in my stomach and my breasteses(my word for boobs). I switched birthcontrol like two months ago for insurance reasons and since I have had this problme. I excersise at least every other day and watch what I eat, yet still have this problem...arg stupid but oh so wonderful birth control. We should devise a work out plan and make sure each toher does it....Maclaren doesn't enjoy my working out...he would rather play a sport...
anywho, you can do it:)

HENRY! GAH! That is so sweet. I cried seeing a baby roll over for the first time. Sheesh... How silly. But YAY for Henry! Babies are such a miracle.

Oh... and I miss talking to you. I get on MSN... then I remember, "Oh wait... Amos works... poo."

ames, its great hta you re gonna hit the gym. i mean it, as soon as i cut out sugar and then added running, only twenty minutes of if it i lost twenty pounds really quickly. your body doesn't want to hang onto all that weight. after the first two weeks of decent change you will start to see your body letting go of its clutter.
erica, birth control jsut does that to you. try to get the lowest estrogen pill you can get. the patch didn't make me gain any weight. but i think it's caused stroke in some people so it's probably not worth the risk?
