Makenzy's Mama!

Last night Me, David and Makenzy were cuddling on the couch watching tv and Makenzy started looking down her shirt. I said "What's in there sweetie" she said "hair" I said "Where's hair?" ARE YOU READY FOR THIS - she said "On my boobs". Hopefully we won't have to have THOSE conversations for quite a while! For now - we couldn't help but laugh hysterically!

I picked Makenzy up from Mamaw's house yesterday after work, and as we were driving home I accidentally rolled one of the back windows down. Makenzy said "Mom, oh my gosh - you scared me to death!" I was laughing so hard I was crying! She is growing up too fast.

Makenzy was the flower girl in a wedding last weekend. I was so worried that she would freeze at the back of the chapel and start crying for me (which is not unusual when she is scared). But, she was a champ! She smiled and walked slowly down the isle to me at the front of the church. My little girl is growing up - I don't think I'm ready for it!







We are making home made pepperoni pizza tonight - I thought Makenzy would like helping me make dinner for a change. I definitely need to do laundry tonight too. I wore my last pair of pants to work today - and would rather not come to work naked tomorrow!

30 more minutes of work left - I miss my baby girl like crazy today!

So, I am starting weight watchers tomorrow! Well, I'm not doing the whole program like going to meetings and things. But I am doing the point counting system and exercising daily. Makenzy and I have actually been walking almost everyday. Sunday we took a two hour walk around the neighborhood! I feel so much better when I exercise and she LOVES to take walks in the stroller.

Anyway, I'm tired of being a fat girl! I never had a weight problem as a child or a teenager! But when I turned 18 - I think I went up 18 sizes! It's been 11 years of gaining some weight each year and I'm ready to be myself again! My first weight goal is to lose 40 pounds and then probably another 20.

Man I'm gonna miss that diet coke and chips and dip before bed at night! :)
