Biggest Loser Nanaimo

I've taken this challenge upon myself.
I've organized this competition to lose weight.
So far we are 7 participants... hopefully I'll still get some more on board this week.
I am really excited! It will be great to have the support, and the competitiveness ( of course! I am going to win, I am going to win!).
I've lost 13 pounds so far, and once I start the challenge I'll be more serious about it and also more regular and committed in my exercise plan. I just started going to the gym 2 weeks ago and I LOVE IT!!! I love being and feeling healthy. I love seeing the results of Herbalife. It does make a difference.
Anyway....I'll tell you more about it once we get started!! Wish me luck!!

Last Weekend Treat...

So what we did for the "most romantic" day of the year was... go to watch a HOCKEY GAME!!!
You might not think it was romantic, but Evan and I LOVE watching games together. It was even more special because we went to see our favorite team: the CANADIENS!
It was my first time seeing them live.... I felt like I was in my teenage years when I used to go see the Real Madrid training, taking pictures with the players and that. I admit I almost cried when I saw them so close...
So first, some pictures of my cutie pies....

And then THE GAME!

Some of our favorite players:
Higgins

Komisarek #8

Of course KOIVU....Carmen knows his name :D...Afeter all he is the Captain!

THE best player in the league: KOVALEV

And the one I have a crush on.... MAXIME Lapierre :D... Doesn't he look all sexy stretching!!???

They were sweet seats we got. 8 rows up. It sucked that they lost..but oh, well... It was still AMAZING! Next time I want to go to Montreal and see them there...THAT will be the experience!!

And then... before going home, we stopped for lunch at the japanese place where they have korean bbq. Right in your table where you can bbq your meat... it is fun. it is good. That's where I got the most exciting phone-call!! ( Irene!!...and the good news!!)))

Love is in the air... or not!

Ayer se me ocurrio preguntarle a mi otra mitad si me iba a dar flores este anyo por San Valentin... y tal cual me dijo q no. Y se quedo tan ancho. Asi q con "todo el amor de mi corazon" le recorde q no me habia dado flores desde q nos mudamos a esta casa 2 ANYOS!!!...
Ai q le dedico esta cancion a mi querido...y a todos los super romanticos q hay en este mundo!!!

Growing....changing....

i haven't had that much time to sit down and think, and write... but it seems that if I don't update my blog, I am saying that I have a boring life and nothing interesting happens.... I just don't take pictures :D... So at least i'll write anout it!
We are very excited about the business with Herbalife. Evan doesn't have a job now. He had to leave his tiling business and he's been able to be home and work on Herbalife full time, which is nice. It is not giving us much money for now, but we are expecting to progress in 2-3 months. In the mean time... drastic cuts in our budget :( .... so we are really reaping the blessings of paying tithing. The Lord will bless us as long as we keep the commandments.
This last month we've been able to see lots of family. Evan's grandad dies and all the 12 kids form the Clarke family came to the funeral. Carmen had so much fun playing with all her cousins. Jordan and Tracy ( and Maria, and Jane) stayed with us... that was Carmen's favorite part. It was a nice visit. It was ... less chaotic this time :D
Evan and I have volunteered for the Olympic games in 2010 here in Vancouver. He had to go to the training last weekend...which meant I was left ALONE to take care of the kids for the night... the day is fine, but at night... it could be more difficult. But thank goodness it was fine. I gave Isabel her bath while the others were still up, I put them to bed no problem and by 8:30 everybody was sleeping.... even Isabel. There was nothing good on tv, so by 9 I was also asleep!
Carmen has been asking me to let Isabel sleep with her in her room. The night before last night I told her that I would, and she woke up crying because Isabel was not in her crib. It broke my heart, so last night was the first night that Isabel slept on her crib, in Carmen's room!!!
She woke up at 5'30 and when I got in the room, Carmen was already up, had turned on the mobile and was shushing her ever soooo dearly.... carmen can be such a cutie :D I told her I would nurse her and bring her back so she went right back to sleep. When I returned her to her crib, Isabel woke up a bit and Carmen was like: She needs a toy.... she needs a pillow... but once she was asleep Carmen told me to leave!
WHen she got up at 8 came running to me and said: I didn't wake her up momy! I didn't!! she is still sleeping!
Bless her! I told her if she would wake her up and try to play with her while she was sleeping, that I would keep the baby in my room.. I am glad she was good, cuz I am excited about not having a baby sleeping in my room.
Anyway... Pictures, right???

There is something wrong with my blog... I don't even have time to fix it... in the mean time... some pictures...
My baby Isabel... cuter than a button with the hat Michaelah made for her...and the 3 together.... the jewels of my crown :D

New Life ... with Herbalife

Ok... So I started business with a company called Herbalife...
It's been 3 weeks and I am loving it.
For those who don't know, Herbalife is not a weight-loss company but they focus on NUTRITION and SUPPLEMENTATION.
They have a program for weight management and I've been on it to lose weight and I've lost 9 pounds in 3 weeks... I am super excited! I've notice such a difference in my energy levels and I feel better overall.
I want to invite you to go to my website and look at the products. They are 100% natural... and of the highest quality... and of course, feel free to order anything you like.
I tell you, I LOVE the shakes. They actually taste good! I love the citrus lemon protein bars ( they taste like lemon cheesecake)... and I am really seeing the effects of the mineral complex, the cell activator and the other capsules to help with the weight loss.
If you have questions... let me know and I can explain to you more in detail, ok?
I am starting a weight loss challenge in Nanaimo. i am really excited... after all I LOVE the biggest loser and I am excited to get people to be healthy and reach their goals... and mine at the same time :D
So.... check it out!! And let me know.
