4 MONTHS OLD!!!

Ashlyn will be 4 months old tomorrow! She now flips both ways all the time. We put her on her back to sleep but she flips right over because she likes sleeping on her stomach. She still LOVES to stand and 'walk' (with someone holding her hands, of course). She doesn't like sitting down much at all because she's always wanting to stand, although she can sit for a several seconds without support. Ashlyn likes playing with her feet a lot and putting toys and her hands in her mouth. She also really enjoys taking a bath.  We haven't got to the point of her sleeping through the night. We have to admit, we can't wait until that happens. She wakes up 1-2 times every night to eat. 

Week 2

It’s been 2 weeks since we started our new healthy lifestyle and it’s getting easier and easier. We’re now used to drinking water at home and have pretty much gotten past the point of craving sodas, Kool-aid, and sugary juices (I’m still craving wings, though). The exercising has been going well for me, but it’s pretty hard for Ramon because he’s juggling a load of school work, working full time an hour away from home, and being a husband/father. Even though he’s missed a few workouts, he’s still losing weight. This last week he’s lost about 3 lbs and I lost just about 2 lbs. So total he’s lost 5.2 lbs and I’ve lost 5.8 lbs in only two weeks. Needless to say, we’re happy with the results. We still have plenty of motivation to keep this up.
