Wow.. It's been a while.

Yes, it's been a loooonnnggg time since I have updated this. Mostly because I have no idea what I am doing on here yet. Dawson is 7 months old now and he is just the best little baby anyone could ask for. He laughs so easily, and is a happy boy. Having him was a spiritual experience, you can really feel it. Lucas had mentioned feeling this way as well. We like to call Dawson "Captain Grunts" because he likes to grunt all the time. Sometimes when he is frustrated or when he just likes to get attention. People mostly say he looks like me or he is a good combination of both Lucas and I. He of course has my eyes, they are a dominant trait in my family. Having a little boy is awesome, I know girls always want a girl... but I didn't. I wanted a boy first, I am the first one my family to have a boy first. I would love to have a little girl but I just wanted a boy. I would have loved whatever I was given but I just had a feeling I had a little boy waiting first. Lucas says I am a "Boys mom" meaning I am good at taking care of boys. I have said "You don't think I will be good at raising a girl, I was an Instructor at a Beauty College I think I can handle it" haha. He then will say "Oh I don't really mean it like that" ;). Lucas likes to tease me he is such the classic boy that probably teased a girl in elementary if he had a crush on her. He thinks it's funny when I get mad at him, he will add fuel to the fire. He isn't like that all the time, he is a really sweet husband that would do anything for me and Dawson. He is a very thoughtful man and we have had a lot of good times together. I can't believe we are fastly approaching our 3rd Anniversary of being married. We are still trying to think of what to do for it. We usually go out of town, but we have Dawson now so that changes things a bit. I don't believe in leaving a baby over night with someone until they are at least a year old. It's fine if someone thinks different but that is what I think. So, after having a baby I took a look at my body and thought oh my bleep you look like crap ha ha. Well, I felt like crap I got my Gallbladder out almost 2 months ago. I was living in pain for 5 months. Now, I have lost over 45 lbs and still am working on losing more. I have my ups and downs with it but I weigh almost 20lbs less than when I got pregnant with Dawson. Marriage really makes you pack on the lbs if you aren't careful. I will get to my goal weight eventually, at least the goal is in sight! I just have the extra skin from the pregnancy takes a long time for that to go back. I have heard you should give yourself a year in the belly region. Did you know it takes 3 years for your body to fully be healed from giving birth crazy huh!? So onto the next topic.. I really wish our house would sale but the stupid housing market is not on the mend like people have said. I blame it on Obama the idiot that he is You wanted change america so here it is! He just makes things worse. People have the argument of Bush and all but I didn't really like him all that much either. I think he did do some things well but some things he messed up on. As for as Obama he has just messed up on everything. I honestly wish the house would sell, it's such a pain in my butt! So now we are re evaluating what we should do. I guess it's not time for us to move yet, I will keep praying for it like I do every single night. I am just glad Lucas has a great job with great benefits. We are blessed that he makes enough that I can stay at home and even have a house. I have to remember that and keep myself in check. Lucas has traveled quiet a bit lately for his job. He is in charge of the "Mormon Messages for Youth" on lds.org. He loves his job and works really hard! He just returned from Prague this last Thursday. He brought home yummy chocolate that tastes way better the U.S chocolate. I gained 2 lbs from eating it and now I am mad at myself for it ha ha. I will start out stronger tomorrow Monday is a new day and I can have a better attitude! The Fourth Of July is this weekend yay! My favorite holiday! I love it so much, can't wait for the Kaysville parade. I love that parade it's pretty much the best parade ever! Well, here is an update Lucas will be proud of me. He is asleep still recovering from Jet lag, hope that ends soon because I want my fun husband back!
