What do 25 pounds look like?

I've been kind of frustrated lately because I haven't lost any weight in the past 2 months, and last week I actually gained 2 pounds. But then I came across this picture...This was our first family picture. As you can see, Leyla is probably only a week old or so. And I didn't weigh myself for a while after I had Leyla, but I had to be at least 25 pounds heavier than I am now. So I took a picture of myself this morning to do a side by side comparison.Seeing that makes me feel not quite so bad about not losing any weight for a while. And the tan? That's from work. The good news is that the only time I'm outside is from 8:00 to 9:00 and then from 4:00 to 5:00. So I'm usually inside weighing feed, doing computer work, etc. during the worst UVA, UVB ray time of the day.

Anyway, I'm waiting for Miguel to return with my car. I went out to the clubs for the first time in three years last night. I went with my friend Amy and her husband Hector and a bunch of his friends who I'd never met before and will probably never see again. It was pretty fun, but I don't think I'll be doing that again for quite a while. Anyway, I met up with them half way across town and then rode with them and left my car in a parking lot overnight. So now Miguel is going to retrieve it for me. It's got a bunch of stuff in it that I need because I'm supposed to make some pipe covers for work by tomorrow and all the supplies are in my car. Hopefully he gets here soon...

I'd say all three of you girls have changed a "bit" in the last 10 months. You're all looking pretty darn fine.
