nearing the end

i bet everyone is getting tired of weight loss updates! the good news it, i'm close to my goal weight so i will probably stop posting about it soon. :) i only lost .7 pounds this week, but it's okay. i'm so close to the end (1.9 pounds now) that i can't really complain. i feel good, healthy and active and strong. i look tons better in all my clothes. it's nice to feel like i look better, but really i just feel a lot better. i feel like the krystle i used to be. just because i've had a kid doesn't mean i don't exist as my own person anymore. i'm still me, but me + one. and the happier i am and the better i feel, the better mom i am to finn. i want to show him how to eat well, to be active, to be healthy and happy. and to do that, i need to be all those things myself. life is good right now, it really is.

only one month until vacation and i'm so excited! i can't wait to see my parents, and for them to get to spend some time with finn. i can't wait to take finn to the pool, to show him the fireworks at the magic kingdom, to take some time with just gavin to go see the wizarding world of harry potter.

i can't wait for december, to fly back to virginia and spend time with my family. i want to cut down a christmas tree, to bake christmas cookies, to make homemade donuts with my mom and hang stockings and watch christmas vacation on christmas eve. there's SO much to look forward to this year! 2011 has been pretty great, i have to say. i don't really have anything to complain about, which is nice.

fantasy football commences on thursday. i'm playing gavin the first week and i intend to kick his ass. watch out, babe!
