Life just gets in the way

So, I always think I need to do better at blogging and that I WILL.MAKE.TIME.  However, life just seems to get in the way.  We've had a busy few weeks and today is the first Saturday in a while that I'm enjoying a "lazy morning" (still drinking coffee and in pajamas at 10).  I totally should be taking a shower and getting ready for the day, but... I'm not!

Just a few updates in the Hartley house. Nancy Carolyn is WALKING.EVERYWHERE!  She's still doing the "monster" walk all over the house and it's as cute as can be.  It's her preferred method of travel now.  She'll crawl SOMETIMES.  She loves to carry things around with her as she walks - sippy cups, little people, etc.  She's very funny.  :)  She has 7 teeth (4 top and 3 bottom) and is a great eater! 

As for me, Thirty One is GREAT fun!  We just launched the Spring/Summer catalog and I'm hosting an Open house/drop in next Saturday.  I can't wait to show off some of my NEW stuff :)  I was promoted last month to SENIOR Consultant, which is very exciting.  


This week I hopped on the bandwagon and began the new Weight Watchers program.  I KNOW what I need to do to eat healthy and how to make healthy choices, I just felt like I needed SOMETHING to hold me accountable.  Everyone that is doing the new program is really enjoying it and having success, so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon.  My goal is to lose about 20-30 more pounds.  AND to fit into the dress from Black House White Market (or is it Black Market White house)?  that Chris gave me for our wedding.  I want to wear it out for our anniversary in April.  We're planning on going somewhere nice and fancy (Woodfire Grill and Flip Burger have been mentioned).  I'm also hoping that the weather will warm up and stay warm so that I can get back into running regularly.  I actually miss it.  We're actually starting a new program at my school called "Girls on the Run" for the third-fifth grade girls.  I'm looking forward to helping out with it on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  I think NC will join us most days!  :)


and because no post is a fun one without a picture... Here's a picture from our friend "LR"'s birthday last weekend.
