Baby Hoof



December 21st-I remember finding out I was pregnant, the only reason I took a test so early was because Cali (the furbaby) started looking at me strange and would just stare at me from the other side of the couch, I would even tell Jeremy, "babe, look at her, why is she just staring at me?" I remembered reading something that said a lot of times dogs can tell your pregnant before you can because of their sense of smell and hearing. So, I was on Christmas break from school and running errands. Before heading the gym I was like ehhh I'm just going to stop at the dollar store and get a test because I didn't think it would work since it had only been a few weeks. Naturally I couldn't wait until after my workout to get home and rest so I decided I'll just take do it in one of the stalls in the gym hahah. So I did and right away there was a line, a faint line but clear as day. I remember  texting my friend Beth who is a nurse and showing her a picture and asking her, "how accurate can this test really be? It's from the Dollar tree" her response was, "congrats you're pregnant, Merry Christmas" needless to say I still didn't believe her so I told her I was going to work out And after my workout I would go buy an expensive test and test again. When I left the gym that was exactly what I did, I got one of those digital ones that would even tell you how many weeks you are, sure enough it showed up positive and estimated 1-2weeks. I was excited and nervous all at the same time. 
My next thought was now I have to tell Jeremy. I wanted to come up with a cute/special way to share the news  with him and I of course wanted to include Cali because she is a part of the family . So I got a cute little shirt that said big sister and took a photo of her in it and put it in a frame for him. 
December 23rd- today was the day I was going to tell Jeremy, I don't know why I was nervous, we had talked a lot about having a baby and he had even made a comment about how he was getting old and didn't want to be an "old dad" but I think it was just the thought of, "our life is about to change forever". So I wrapped  up the frame and told him I had an early Christmas gift for him, when he opened it and saw the pic, I could tell he was surprised and happy.  
We are both so excited about this next adventure in our lives. I pray that God keeps our sweet baby healthy and growing.

4th of July

                                          Happy 4th of July!  Today ended up being an impromptu family day and it was so much fun. Since 4th of July ended  up being on a Wednesday we didn’t have anything planned since J had to work yesterday and will work tomorrow as well. So we were just going to hang out at my moms house, but then over a stream of text this morning we ended up making plans to go to Fort Worth and spend the day there with my sister’s family.  We stopped on the way @cousinsbarbecue it was our first time to eat their food and it did NOT disappoint. We ordered chicken, ribs, sausage and chopped brisket, along with fried okra, black eyed peas and slaw. The fried okra and ribs were my absolute favorite but honestly all of it was delicious. When you head to Fort Worth don’t foreget to check out  Cousins Barbecue We spent some time ...

Our Dream Home

October 21, 2015 When Jeremy and I first started dating we would go to neighborhoods and look at houses being built, and just imagine what it would be like to own a house of our own together. It was always one my favorite "dates" with him. we would talk about the specific changes we would make to the house to make it unique and we would pick other houses apart. Being with him and looking at houses always felt right. :)  A year ago around my birthday I remember Jeremy saying he found this community that was building Shaddock homes (which was always one of my favs) so I went and checked out the model home and fell in love. Then when Jeremy showed me the lot he wanted for us, it literally felt perfect.   I didn't think we'd actually be blessed enough to start the process of building a home and ending up with what is truly our Dream House. We both have worked so hard to be able to accomplish this goal that we reached out for and I thank God for blessing us with this beaut...

8 week Results

I’ve officially been taking Ketones for 8 weeks so here’s my update! Since my last measurements done 4 weeks ago I’ve only lost 1.2lbs but my total weight loss since starting ketone has been 5.2lbs! Which is pretty amazing! However I’m not too worried about the weight loss because as you can see I’m loosing inches y’all! In these past 4 weeks I’ve lost a total of 4.6 inches which means in 8 weeks I’ve lost about 8in total. I’m seeing results physically but let’s also talk about the other benefits, I still love the energy the Ketones are giving me, I only take one pack a day in the morning and can fast until about  11am  (Lunch time) , basically fasting for 16 hours. One day I plan to do a 24 hour fast while only taking ketones. I’ll let y’all know how that goes.  Sleeping has been amazing, and what’s crazy is I can remember my dreams now, although some I’d rather forget. My cravings continue to decrease, maybe it’s the fact that now I know how many carbs are ...
