While at Alanna’s shower on Saturday, my friend Tessa of Grin and Share It Photo snapped this picture of Payton and her little buddies. It is one of my favorite pictures thus far! Look at these babes, so picture perfect and all looking a different way. This one is going up on the nursery walls fo sho!

I rotated the picture so you could see little Miss P’s face. I think this looks like a baby gap add or something of the sort. Man, of man are we all in trouble when these girls are teenagers.

Lately, I have been posting about ladies I met while planning our 2007 wedding. During our planning months (or 1+ years in my case) I met such amazing women and we have remained friends, some of which I consider my closest friends. Our group is one-of-a-kind, we can share anything and I trust them with the details of my life. The greatest joy about our group is that we shared special moments when we were tying the knot, but something more amazing occurred in 2009. During the past year most of us either conceived or gave birth to a child, some only weeks a part. Our little loves are going to grow up in such a great circle of friends, which I only hope will continue for our lifetime.

The glowing mommy-to-be!

I am totally going to be an attention whore. I baked the cutest cake this weekend for an order and I want you to check it out!

Was when I finally caught Payton smiling on camera. I have tried so many times but her eyes are either closed or her smile turns into a yawn look. This first picture was my last attempt and I am so happy she had it in her to cooperate for one last shot. The second one isn’t the greatest quality (pretty blurry and dark) but these two show the two sides of Miss Payton’s smiles. LOVE HER! Today is a great start to the week, I woke up very groggy, I don’t really know why since P and I slept from 10:00 pm to 7 am and then I fed her and went back to sleep from 7:30 am until 11 am. My workouts have been going great, I made it to the gym 5 days and then ran one day at home, so I managed to fit in 6+ workouts last week. I feel great, a little sore today, but I am going to take today off instead of tomorrow just to rest a little more. I am excited to do my weigh-in on Wednesday!

Have a great week everyone!!
