I think it's time to dust it off and get back at it!!
Ok so 2013 came and went. It was full of ups and downs. But most importantly we were blessed with a beautiful happy chubby baby boy!! 
Allow me to introduce to you Gavin Dean
He was born Sept 18th 2013. He was 8lbs 8oz and 21.25 inches long.
I found out I was pregnant Jan 12th 2013 after TTC for 6 months. It took longer than I thought it would and that took a toll on me,my marriage and ultimately my weight. I gained back all the weight I lost after having Kyla plus 15 extra pounds for good measure :/
My pregnancy was not easy this time around. I developed perinatal cardiomyopathy, so I was put on bed rest when I was 7 months along.
Not fun! I had to go out on disability which was a huge blow to our finances. So we pulled Kyla out of daycare. Having a 2.5 year old stuck inside all day is no bueno. Luckily my family would take her places or even just to their houses to play and have a change of environment. I felt so guilty that she had to be trapped in the house with me it really tore me apart.
But we made it thru! And I have my perfect baby boy to show for it! He completes our family and I can't imagine life without him !
Kyla turned 3 on Dec 17th - we had just a family party this year, because finances were super tight. But she loved her princess party!! She has become such a little lady. We have real conversations and real arguments. She has so much sass and personality !! When she tells me I'm her best friend my heart swells so much I think it will explode.
So things are getting back to normal now. I'm back at work. Getting back into our routine with the addition of Gavin.
I just started WW again. With Gavin I only gained 25 lbs. and I lost it on my own within a month after having him. But remember those extra lbs I was holding onto? Yea still have to lose those pesky buggers!! Around 60 of em!
I cleared my weight history and I'm starting fresh.
Ok well that should bring you up to speed for now. I really want to commit to blogging at least once a week! I just read back my old posts and I'm so happy I have them to look back on.
