Picnik

Yesterday I stumbled across this fun photo editing website Picnik. It's free and it has a lot of cool features.

I love photography and would love to have Photoshop CS4 but at this time I cannot afford it.

Here is a before and after photo's I did using there website:

Week 2 Diet Results

Ready?

Here are the results:

Kristina -1
Austin -1

Not great but still a loss. I am especially amazed since Austin who quit smoking this week actually had a loss. He was eating everything under the sun.

Diet Sabatoge

Last night while I was watching the previews for the next Biggest Loser they showed one of the contestant eating a donut. I thought to myself boy a donut would be so yummy and I would love to have a rasberry filled donut. But I know I wouldn't go out of my way to get one so I wasn't worried.
But to my suprise this morning when I called into work late my co-worker said "You better hurry b/c M is stopping by Krispy Cream because the "Hot and Ready" sign was on". What? I couldn't believe it.
Guess what? I had two...

Yippie

Today Austin quit smoking. I really hope he goes through with it this time. He quit a few years ago for about three months and decided to start back up because he was going to a friends party.
You ask why I didn't quit with Austin? Well, I don't want to be divorced after only being married for 4 mnths. My time is coming real soon.

Crazy Diamond

Did anyone get to see the moon last night? They said it was going to be the biggest moon of 2009.

Austin and I were very excited to see it. We got our camera's and headed out. But to our disappointment it was to cloudy for us to see the sunset.

Later that night Austin went out and took some video of the moon. It was real cool. Since I was already in bed I kept asking him to take my camera and take some pictures. I could hear him and he was not going out. So I jumped out of bed and grabbed the camera. I've never had success taking pictures of the moon and was to lazy to get the tripod but I figured I would give it a try.

These aren't the best pictures but I thought they were pretty cool to share.

Getting back into the groove

After being out of work and daycare so much the past two weeks it was real hard to get back to normal.

And guess what? My sweet little princess turned into a monster.

The week started off with her stealing trains from a one year old at Books-A-Million. She was feeding the family dog just about everything. If we were not watching she would tell us that Cassey ate her food. Then she would want us to discipline Cassey. And through out the week her favorite word was NO....In one week she stole, lied and talked back.

By the weekend things calmed down. She was my sweet little princess again.

Abigail spent her time:

Reading



Doing crafts



We made this for Daddy since he was out painting for a guy and because he is going out of town for work this coming up week.

And just being sweet.



But when I turned my back

And no, she is not on a stool.
