How to lose weight

Well, it's been about 5 months since I had Rylan, and I still need to lose about 5lbs to get back to the weight I was before getting pregnant with him. BUT, I still have 10lbs to lose that I never was able to shake off from my first pregnancy with Kailee. That's probably the minimum that I would want to lose, my ultimate goal would be around 35lbs. I just don't want to be one of those mom's that can't chase their kids around because I'm too out of shape. The problem is finding the time! :) When you go to bed at 1am and get woken up by a baby once during the night, then somehow my some miracle wake up
at 7:30 to start your day, it's just hard to find not only the time, but the motivation to workout! So I started at LA Fitness, which I love, except for the fact they have no early morning classes. I am definitely a person that needs to go to a structured class. Their earliest one is 8:30, and James is already gone to work. So LA Fitness, here's my formal complaint! :) What about us moms that work from home? Well, then the season just hit for me, and now my workout plan has gone to the wayside. So it's time to start up again!

Well, we found this clip on YouTube, and I can't believe there's a 5 year old showing me up! :) It's a little long, but you'll get the gist in the first five minutes. It's pretty amazing!

Love the funnies

Hey everyone!

Well, we are in the swing of things! It is getting busy here at Bellissima, and we wouldn't have it any other way! I've done some really great weddings, with really incredible people, and I can't wait to show off some of the images. But I had realized, I never blogged many of my weddings last year! It got a little crazy, so I left it out. So I am making it a point to add some of the previous ones with my new!

Anyways, this is a non work related post. A little while back a friend of mine sent me this clip. It got me thinking, gosh, I love reading the funnies! Somewhere over the years, I just stopped. No specific reason, just did. So in light of my new revelation, I vow to begin reading them again! I love humor, and in our lives there is ALWAYS room for a little more giggling, don't you think. Well, this clip is for all my mommies out there.

Another great family session

Hi Everyone,

Well, I had the pleasure of documenting another great family, the Maude family. I started doing pictures of their oldest when he was just 18 months old, and so to see him being big brother to his little sister and brother was quite the treat!


















Well thanks for letting me play guys! CJ, I'm still waiting for my turn on your
4 wheeler! :)
