1. braxton is crawling.
2. i have not eaten carbs in two weeks and have lost 10 lbs.

7. i am sewing some super cute table runners for a baby shower i am throwing. (pics of that soon)
8. justin is trying to talk me into a minivan. seriously. its the coziest car in the world and so so so so so so convenient with the doors that open on their own...more cargo space than my yukon..but its a minivan. he is still working on me and let me just say that he is a FABULOUS salesman!
