WOOHOO!! Yay! Yay! Yay! Yay!

I am SO SO SO SO excited! I have been working my butt off in school. I got my Associate degree from Utah Valley when I was 18. Then I couldn't figure out where I wanted to go from there. I was frustrated because everything I was interested in seemed like another Associate degree. I didn't want two degreees, I wanted the Bachelors! But to build on the degree I already had, put me in something I didn't want. I decided on Dental Hygiene when I was pregnant with Allivia. I spent my entire pregnancy just getting as many credits as I could hoping that I could finish sometime after she was born and still be a good mom. Well, this year I started back up, getting some last prerequisite classes done and I applied the UCDH, Utah College of Dental Hygiene. They offer a Bachelor's degree that would build off my Associates and put me graduating 20 months after I start! I have been so excited. Well, a couple days ago, I got my letter! I hope I'm not celebrating too soon but I was invited back to interview at the school! I passed the first of the two part admissions process!! I am really excited and hope I do well on the other part!!

I LOVE Allivia!

My little woman turned 4 yesterday! It seems SO weird to me to have a 4 year old. I still feel like I am the same high school kid that I was 8 years ago...maybe something to do with dating Zac so long, I don't know. When I see Allivia, I am reminded of how much time has gone by. I am SO thankful to be Allivia's mom. She made me a mother and it is the greatest experience of my life. I enjoy being a mom and appreciate my kids every single day. I know they won't be little forever and so I try to just memorize their little faces...but they keep changing on me! Maybe that is why I am so into scrapbooking LOL. Livi is such a fun kid. Very smart, laid-back, easy going, independent girl I know. She is smart beyond her years and says stuff that cracks me up all the time. The other day I said, "Allivia, I'm so glad you're my girl." and she said "well I'm so glad I'm on this earth!" And she really is! She wakes up to meet the day EXCITED to be alive and ready for whatever the day will bring. It is so fun to be her mom. I am really proud of the kind of person she is turning into. She is really into what Heavenly Father wants of her, and I love seeing her learn about spiritual things. She teaches me a lot. I love her so much! Happy Birthday baby girl!

Warning: Naked (a little) Me!

Ok so me and my neighbor Angie have been doing this hardcore work out program called P90X. We have 3 "phases" each lasting 30 days. I just started my 3rd and final phase so the first picture on the left is my "before" picture, next to that is me after 30 days, and the last one is after 60 days. I know my results aren't AMAZING yet, but I hope they will be by day 90! I am proud of myself so far and wanted to share! LOL
It has been fun fun FUN if anyone wants a great work out, I would highly recommend P90X!
