You know what’s crazy? I felt like I gained weight. I was totally dreading getting on that scale and taking my measurements and when I finally did, it was a great feeling knowing that I lost that many inches. I don’t know why my mind is always so negative. We are our own worst critics that’s for damn sure.

I’m not gonna lie to you guys, I didn’t workout nearly as much as I did last month. I guess that’s why I felt like I gained. I’m actually surprised I didn’t have a gain in inches and weight. But lesson learned and it’s a new day. I just gotta move forward from here.

I also wanted to share this channel I found on youtube it’s called fitnessblender. they have some great workouts you can do at home. I HATE walking the track. like HATE it. it’s so boring to me just walking in a circle round and round. omg. so boring. I don’t mind doing videos at home and I haven’t got the confidence to hit the gym yet so i use youtube a lot for workouts. just thought I’d share…

FYI: I’ll be wearing a cropped denim jacket with whichever one I pick!

cute? yes? I like it ok.

sorta like the same, but different. yay? nay?

I love the colors!

I love the lace and the pink!

the mint is pretty too tho! decisions, decisions! hmmmm

and the last one which is also my FAVORITE one! i do love this one soo much. so cute and paired with a denim jacket and i have the perfect shoes for it… Cute, right?!

which do you like best??

SAY WHAT NOW????

I don’t think she was kidding either.

Jesus take the wheel. 22 more years of her attitude just might kill me.

I’m just gonna have to talk her into getting a Toyota Corolla instead so she’ll be able to afford her rent.

4th of July was a bust. I was looking forward to the fireworks all day long. then my husband and his big mouth ruined it for me.

so here’s a pic of pretty much all i did 4th of july:

sophia’s super cute pedi that i gave her. she loved it. i loved doing it for her. win/win! Hope your holiday was a helluva lot better than mine! next holiday?? MY BIRTHDAY!!!!! AND I CANNOT WAIT!!! i can’t wait to go out again! i went out last weekend with my favorite cousin and we had a blast!! i love going out. i don’t get to do it that often! so i sure do enjoy it when i get to do it! here we are, right before we left!

let’s see what else….??? oh i finally got my michael kors bag i’ve been wanting since last december!!! omg. i love it. LOOOOVE it. it’s big and it’s just so beautiful!

me and my bff made up. we had a falling out back in feb and stopped talking. she emailed me a few months ago and we said “sorry” but didn’t really rekindle anything. then outta the blue i just had the urge to text her and i guess it was at the right time because she came over for a visit shortly after and it was like we never lost contact. that’s the beauty of having a lifelong friendship. it’s kinda like being married, you want to kill them one min. then you love them the next! lol but they are always in your life. i missed her so much and am happy to have her back in my life where she belongs!!

this is our kids at the community pool:

we’ve been spending an obscene amount of time at the pool. it’s a good way to keep the kids busy and i like my new tan! i don’t look super pale and sickly anymore! yay!

here’s sophia at the pool (not the community pool, this is at my niece’s apt)

we went to visit my brother for father’s day. he lives in victoria. we live in houston. that’s about 2 hours away. my daddy was there. it was so nice to finally see them. i loved it. we had a really good time and i got to see my little niece! I hadn’t seen her since LAST summer! she’s so cute, y’all! I mean seriously, CUTE! and she’s tiny! teeny tiny! i love her so much. she’s a mean little booger, just like her yaya! (that’d be me!)

lately i’ve been into making my iphone as cute as it possibly can be. I think i’ve reached that point:

I’m pretty sure I have the cutest iphone on the freakin’ block!!

so that’s pretty much all we’ve up to. it’s been a great summer so far and i’m real excited for whatever happens next!!!
