A recap

Ok, ok, I know I've been a slacker! Blogging just seems to take a back seat to life lately. So much going, so little time to keep up. I'll try to recap the last couple of weeks here.

Have you ever face planted it on a cement sidewalk? Well, that's one thing I can check off my to-do list! Yes, I face planted it, and I did it with style. Cec and I were walking into a store and I had my hands full of purse, cell phone, notebook, etc. There was a small two inch step and I totally missed it. I literally landed on my face! I ended up with a big scab from nose to chin, knocked my front teeth loose, and suffered a huge dose of humiliation. All Cec could do was laugh at her upended mom. I'm finally almost back to normal, my teeth are in place and still pearly white, and other than the bad memories, I haven't suffered any ill effects.

The little J-man is growing like a weed. He's now sitting on his own and drooling up a storm. He's getting to be so much fun! I think he likes me, too!

On the weight loss front, I am one pound away from reaching the half way point. Twenty pounds down, twenty more to go! My goal was to hit that twenty pounds gone by Thanksgiving and I'm stoked that I'm almost there. It's been a challenge and to be honest I haven't been as diligent the last month as I was the first, but it's still coming off, slowly but surely.

And now, for the last bit of news, I'm about to become a ...... MOTHER-IN-LAW! Cec has found the love of her life and he was right under her nose. Andy has grown up here as Jayson's best bud and the two of them decided they were meant to be together. It's a bit strange to think of myself as anyone's mother in law, but it's inevitable. We're absolutely thrilled and couldn't have picked a better man for our daughter. Oh wait, we kind of did pick him! (Don't tell Cec that!) Actually, we have all been telling her for years that she was going to marry Andy. It just took her a bit longer than expected to come to the same realization. The big day will be May 1st and they are getting married in the Bountiful temple. Can't wait!!!!
