This happened today.
Congratulations Sgt! ♥

This photo hurts my eyes.
Why? Well, I’m not pregnant, for one. And you certainly could guess by the bulge in my belly. I’ve had this photo for almost three weeks, and I haven’t posted it for one reason only: I hate the way I look. I hate the dimpled look of my thigh (not sure what’s up because they don’t appear to be on my other thigh.) I hate the way my tits sag, my hair looks greasy, and and I loathe that god damn belly bulge.

I’m so tired of starting to change, and then getting frustrated and giving up. I don’t want to sit here and delete photos of myself and my family just because I’m dissatisfied with my appearance. I can’t feel like this anymore.

I’m pulling out the 30 Day Shred DVD for September.
Just once I’d like to finish it. Guess we’ll see?

Throwback Thursday

This was in my draft folder, but I forgot to publish it yesterday. Oops!
Enjoy these random photos of Philip & I, from high school. 2005-2008.

Random photos of Philip & I, from high school. 2005-2008.

A handful of shots from July 10th. Sophia was excited to play with my friend Hala’s daughters, while we watched a ceremony for a retiring battalion master sgt. My husband was part of the guard, on the left carrying the rifle.

My sister-in-law’s last day with us in Hawaii. I took her to have lunch with Philip on base, and then we got to go lay on the beach for hours, kid-free. It’s hard to work on a tan when you’re building sand castles or yelling “that’s far enough!” every five minutes when the tots head into the water. There’s something peaceful about just laying on the beach in the sun. And this is one helluva beautiful beach.

Lunch at Chinaman’s hat. (Kualoa Beach Park). We picked up Mickey D’s with the sister-in-law and spent the afternoon there. Beautiful!
