Tribute to our beloved Prophet: Gordon B. Hinckley

What an amazing and wonderful man he was! We will miss him!

Neighbors

So I have to say that we have the best neighbors and they have the cutest kids! When I come home from work and pull up into my driveway Iam greeted at my car door by their smiling faces and screaming "Meldy, Meldy"! It just makes my day! Or if they are at the neighbors playing with the other kids and see me coming, they start running toward our house with this big grin on their face! And they always say the cutest things...ex: we were playing pool and the little 3 year old tells me "Its all yours babe, its alllll yours!"

Basically what Iam trying to say is that it makes me so happy and puts a smile on my face knowing that they just love coming over and hanging out and don't want to leave when the time comes :)

Toby

So I finally got a cute picture of Toby and just had to put it on here! I just love him and think he is the cutest ever! I always see blogs with mom's and their babies and as much as I wish I could post the same I can't so I have Toby to take pics of! Is that weird?

The addiction needs to stop!

As most of you know Iam addicted to Dr.Pepper and I think that this needs to stop! Well I don't think I can give it up cold turkey right away but I can for sure drink less than 3 a day and still function :) I have only had 1 a day this whole week and thats progression for me!

I was listening to the news the other day and they were talking about how if you are trying to get pregnant then you need to cut caffeine out of your "diet"! And then today at work one of the salesman was telling me that there are about 40 grams of sugar in one can of Dr.Pepper and for every 4 grams its a teaspoon of sugar! So 10 teaspoons of sugar in one can! Pretty nasty when you think about it but its soooo dang good and yummy to the taste!

So Iam going to try and have only 3 a week and substitute for water and other "healthy" beverages! Lets see if this works!
