A few of my favorite shots from Gray's birthday party:

Looking back

A coworker once told me about her sister who took photos of her child with the same teddy bear every month. It inspired me to document Grayson's growth by taking monthly photos with his first soccer ball. I'm so glad I did because of the end result. Happy birthday baby boy. I'm so in love with you!

Feeling good.

My weight loss journey has not been hugely successful yet, but I've found a new motivation. Instead of picking a special event or holiday I want to look good for months in advance, I'm trying to find one every week or two. When I have months, my mentality is not where it needs to be because I think, "Oh well, that is far away, I'll exercise tomorrow." By having dates that are closer, I have to be more accountable. Coming up:
May 12-Adult Prom party
May 19-Grayson's 1st Birthday party
May 26-a friend's birthday celebration
June 2-a get together with friends I only see every few months
June 9-a wedding reception
I'm excited to see the changes I make between now and June 9th.
