Still losing more weight

This is todays picture. I am 1-2 lbs to the weight I was before I had Tyler. This is my skinny pants and the shirt I am wearing I was brave and I bought it without trying it on first, just to see if I could guess what I am at.
I am really not trying as hard as I should be and Superwoman told me that if I lose 12 more pounds that she will start with me. I told her that it would be december and she asked me if I could wait for january, we will see.
Yeah me!!!!

I'm a new Auntie!!!!

Check out her hair!!!


Avery Gordon was born November 12, 2008 at 12:15 am.

We got the text message right as we were leaving to go to work on Wednesday. Karl just happened to check his phone and saw two text messages from his brother. Karl called his brother at 7 am and everyone was great. We booked it after work to get down to Auburn to see our new niece and Tyler's seventh girl cousin, he is the only boy.
Avery is the first granddaughter on Karl's side of the family. I believe she is the second granddaughter on Rachel's side of the family. She only weighed 6 lbs 12 oz when she was born and these pictures don't do justice to how adorable she is. I am so excited that she is here. Mom and baby are doing great and Dad is so happy! Congratulations Daryl and Rachel.

Pumpkin Cookies

I have been obsessed with baking lately. I have been making pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and tonight I made pumpkin cookies with icing drizzled on top. I do have to say that I bake some mean cookies. I am so tired and I wish I could fall asleep lately but I have not been sleeping well. I think I bake to keep myself distracted from everything else. It really is good therapy and I do enjoy baking. Next month my sister and I are going to be making cookie platters. I have been so excited to try new recipes and I have a few more recipes to try out before I add them to the list.
