In the world of The Wolters

Hello all- It has been quite some time since I last blogged. I have just been busy with work, personal life and just everyday life!! Not to much has changed...

I am still doing the Weight Watchers program. I started Oct 21 and I am officially at 18 pounds today. I am not as dedicated as I once was- due to my busy lifestyle and just falling off the wagon. I am trying my best to hit the gym 3 days a week (at least) and I have set a goal to loose another 16 pounds by June 1! I feel I can do it!

We are planning on getting "pregnant" in the fall. I am hoping to have the "seed" planted by the end of August at the latest. My brother is getting married in Fall of 2012 so I need to get that seed harvested by at least June so I can go to his destination wedding! Plus- I don't want to be preggo for his wedding, since I am the Maid Of Honor and all! This summer I want to get all my "partying" and final childless behaviors out of me so I am ready to be a full time mommy and don't feel deprived for 9 months to a year. I will admit, it is going to be one hell of a lifestyle change, but in a very good way! I am slowly but surely getting more and more excited about it. If you know me at all, I was always the one who wasn't to "fond" of children, they give me headaches and interrupt my adult time (man that makes me sound bad) Over the last 2 years I have become so fond of the little buggers, they can just brighten your day with one tiny smile. Can not wait to have my own bundle of smiles and giggles (poops, cries, messes, vomit ext...) I guess my "biological clock" is ticking!!! I am praying for a girl but at the same time I want my boy first so that my girl can have an older brother (like I did). Jack wants a girl too so that would be nice if that's what we get! Boys are so much easier though, so I hear. Just praying the little "seedling" comes out healthy with 10 fingers and 10 toes for this mommy!! WOW... referring to myself as a mommy is a weird feeling! I guess I will just have to get used to that one!

Other than that not to much has changed. Just WAITING for this horrid winter to be OVER. We had a brief glimpse of sunshine and nice weather but it got all demolished with the 4 inches of snow that landed in our yards yesterday. YUCK! This winter has been so long and dreadful. The weather has just made the last 4 months rotten. The sun will be here soon- I can just feel it!

A Note to my WONDERFUL, AMAZING, ENCOURAGING, ENLIGHTENING, and VERY HANDSOME Husband:

Through out my whole 15 weeks of weight loss journey you have been there for me, supported me every step of the way. Helping me track my points, helping me choose the "healthier" choice meal when we are dining out to eat, cooking meals for me when I am working 10 hour days and making them healthy meals too, giving me encouragement when I am exercising to push myself more and more, telling me your proud of me for all my weekly weigh in's wether it be .2 or 3.4 pounds down, getting on my case for eating bad and knowing I will regretting it on my Thursday weigh in and most of all just being you!! You make this progress easier for me and I just want you to know I could not of done this with out you. Love you very much! Love ME!
