I maintained this week. Not up and not down... I'm okay with that. These have been some very busy weeks!!! I am looking forward to school being out!
Total weight loss = 60.8 lbs.
That to me is pretty exciting. This week at WW marked one year of going to the meetings weekly. I have made some great friends there. I only have 14 more lbs to go before I am at the top number in my weight range for my height. We all had to make a goal tonight in my meeting. This goal is to be acheived by the end of July! My goal is to lose those 14 lbs and be at the top number of my weight range... then i become lifetime member of WW and don't have to pay for the meetings. That is exciting also! I want nothing more than to be thin... my whole life!!! Maybe this time I can succeed!!!
Thanks for all the support I get from all around... it really means so much!

Claire Bear's Party
Just as promised lots of pictures of my Claire Baby's B-day party. This is Claire with her cupcake! 
We had so many friends to come. Here is a picture of Adam... he is Melissa and Ben's son. Melissa and I worked together at Carlisle - Foster's Grove! We left the same year... to nobody's surprise! Anyway, this is Adam making a break for the water! He really loved the boats!
Then there is Noni, Aunt Cindy, and Nanny.
Next is a picture of Maddie and Ella Grace. They are the twins of Ashley and Rick, our friends from (most recently) church.
Next are Amanda and Greg's kiddos, Averi and baby brother Aidan. We were so happy to see them. Amanda and I have been friends since high school. It means so much to have our kids play together
Ok... I know when you get to the picture of the guy on the slide you are thinking who is that person... he looks so familiar... well he is the one, the only, Todd Summers and his cutie little one baby Jackson!
Then there are a couple pictures of Neilie in the mix. You will see Guh-Guh (that's my mom) holding Claire to see the full outfit she bought her.
Then there is Christie Summers, Todd's wife. Christie, Melissa and I all worked together at CFG. We were all more than happy to leave! We were trying to get both of our children to look at the camera... lost cause there!
Moving on, there is a picture of my Daddy and GUP (Great Uncle Preston).
There is also a picure of Neilie flying a kite with her Poppie. He really fixed hers so it would fly. It stayed in the air for the majority of the party!!!
The last picture is of Anchor Park, the sign when you entered the park area. This is really a great place to have a party!

Claire's Birthday is tomorrow!
I can't believe my baby will be one! Her birthday is on Mother's Day this year. We will be eating at my MaMa and DaDa's house. We had her party yesterday evening at Anchor Park at Lake Bowen. What a great place to have a birhtday party. It really was stress free... and for you parents who have had parties in your home... you understand the stress I speak of! 
Last year, she was born on a Friday afternoon. I worked at school all day (in labor)! Around 2:30, I went to my mom's room and asked for a piece of paper to write down my contractions. She had to go to car duty... I begged her please do not tell anyone that I could possibly be in labor! In about 10 minutes... here comes all the girls we work with. Our friend Alice said, "Oh how fun... I've never seen a woman in labor before!" It was quite funny. So when I realized that my contractions less than 10 minutes apart and pretty painful I decided to call my friend Rhonda Coffey. She is the nurse that delivered Neilie and Claire. My mom taught her son at Roebuck Elementary. Rhonda told me to DO NOT DRIVE MYSELF but get to the hospital ASAP! So I sent my mom to get Neilie and I drove myelf home and got my stuff... my pillow, my bag, my book to read... and then drove to the hospital. Rhonda was waiting on me when i got there in a panic. Neil met me there in his patrol car. He was working that day. I was admitted to the hospital around 4:30. I got an epidural around 4:35 (literally... i don't take any chances). Claire was born at 8:53 pm Friday night May 11, 2007! We named her Claire Thomas (after my Daddy)!
In this picture, Claire is about 1 hour old. (Our camera put the wrong date on everything... it wasn't 2006... it was 2007!) Technology is great when it works!

up a little... bummer
So this week at the WW, i was up .8... bummer! Oh well, better luck next time. Neil got me my massage (thanks to the cuz Shelley). I will be going to The Heights of Converse for my massage in a few weeks. I will most certainly wait until after the big birthday party. I am still holding on to the 60 lbs. lost though. i had lost 60.8...now it is just 60... but 60 nonetheless. More to come as the birthday party week unfolds!
