This date will forever be etched in my memory. Twice. You see, 23 years ago on this day, The Lord saved my soul...which was the BEST thing that could happen to me in this life. Two years ago, our second angel earned its wings....and that was about the lowest I've ever been. I'm thankful for the good to help me make it through the tough times.

8 months
I can't believe this cute little guy is 8 months old already!
Here he is playing with his favorite toy of the month...his piggies!

On Exercise
Before we tried IVF, we spent much time and effort getting healthier. J lost over 100 pounds, and I lost around 45. We counted calories, went for walks together, and exercised using Wii programs regularly (3-4 times/week).
Then we decided to give IVF a try. While I continued to attempt to count calories (until we got pregnant...then, in between pregnancies), I gave up the more intense exercise and resorted to walks. Occasionally. When the weather cooperated (because I HATE the treadmill).
Now, I'm so disgusted with myself and the fact that I have some weight I'd like to shed, but I can't seem to find time to exercise. When do working moms of infants do it? It's starting to get warmer, so maybe Lincoln and I can go for walks right after school...but I don't know if dinner will still be ready by 5:00...
For now, I guess I'll still have to skip the aerobics. I can't get up earlier...lunch is 20 minutes...and I will NOT sacrifice play time with the child I worked so hard to get here. He won't remember me playing with him right now...but I will.
Oh, and because I'm terribly behind on pictures, here's one from Easter.
