Change of Plans. . .

We have changed our minds about the house that was mentioned in my previous post. We have decided to go with a differnet home- a one story, completely different area of san antonio, wonderful neighborhood... Fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly. We will be building just like we had planned for the previous mentioned home. We are in love with this house and it just feels right- unlike the other one did, so we backed out. As for things around the Haskins Household.... Things are pretty much normal... same ol'. Our Easter was wonderful. Thomas had the morning with the girls and I. The Easter Bunny came and knocked on the door, which really excited the girls! Once Thomas went to work, the girls and I headed to Thomas's Mom's house to enjoy some family time. The girls got to hunt for eggs outside, which was a blast for them. All in all, it was a great Easter. I will post some pictures later.. I have yet to download them to the computer. I am amazed at how fast the time flies. I am a little sad. My babies are not so much babies anymore. Ayla tells me how it is and Hailyn is a little Monster :) Then I think about all the fun stages I have yet to look forward to and it excites me! There is so much still ahead and I feel so blessed to have two amazing daughters and a wonderful Husband. I find myself anxious to have another, but the timing is not right. We will wait until this time next year to even discuss it. We are considering putting the girls in preschool once we move. I hope and pray to find a part time job while they are at school... Something from 9am-2. Thomas and I both feel that they are to the point where they need interaction with other children THEIR age! I really think they will love it. They love kids... Plus, it is a learning enviornment, not just a daycare. I would love to have a little office job- secretarial, something!!! Bring in some extra spending money... you know? I hope it all works in our favor. I will post some pictures later tonight. Update: I have been doing my walking tape for almost 2 weeks now and feel great!!! It is a definite WORK OUT!!! :) Wish me luck! I hope to lose some major pounds... have not seen much loss... tightening, yes, which is better than nothing! Hopefully once I reach my goal, I will have some awesome before and after photos to post :)

Weight-Loss Here I come!!

I am OFFICIALLY on diet and workout plan today. I had bought a diet from Arbonne a few weeks ago and just never started it - stupid I know. It is to supplement with a shake for one or two meals, whichever you prefer and it came with fizzy drink which is supposed to give you energy and supress your appetite in between meals. I also have yummy chocolate chews that are designed to do the same thing as the drink, but also is supposed to crave that sweet tooth that we all know I have :)

I am going to do my 3 mile workout tape every day--- right after the kiddos go to bed is my plan!

Wish me luck!!

I am getting so excited about buying our first house!! It will take 3-5 months to build.. we are in the VERY beginning stages. Have not figured out financing as of yet. They want us to go with their "people" But Thomas wants to check with his union first with the Border Patrol. He hears they are really great! So, fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly!

This is the house we are building. It is a Fieldstone home- The one we have chosen is a little different on the outside, but you get the general idea.
