Brandon is 6 months old

My little love is growing up. Brandon is 6 months old and doing all kinds of new fun things. Eating is one of Brandon's favorite new things he does and he looks so cute doing it.

Just another day in Paradise

This is just one of the many reasons why I love Ventura.

It is January and as many people bundle up to walk outside, I get to grab a sweatshirt and take a walk at the beach as I watch the sunset. Ventura really is Paradise.
2010 has started and like many of you, I'm excited for the new year and all the opportunities this new year holds for me and my family. Chad is really big on new year resolutions, and I guess after 10 years of marriage he has rubbed off on me. I have made a whole list of goals for the new year and so far things are going great. My biggest goal this year is to get rid of my baby fat- you know that extra weight that comes with having babies. I'm not having any more babies, so I can work hard to get it off and keep it off. I started eating healthier the day after Christmas and I joined a gym this week, hence the workouts have started. I have great hope that by this summer I will be a healthier mommy with more energy for my kids and I will be fitting better my swimsuit. Along with my list, the kids have made resolutions. Addie 7 years old wants to become a better reader and read every day. Emma 6 years old wants to ride bikes more and learn more at school. Adam 3 years old wants to hit a golf ball into the bucket at the range which is about 60 yards out. Brandon 5 months can't tell me yet what he wants to do this year but I'm sure learning to crawl and walk is what he plans on doing.
