Easter dresses, sunshine, and exercise.....

I am ALMOST finished the sewing marathon.... I have about a mile left to go, and I am DONE..... I am so ready for a break and to make some of these lovelies for MY girlies..... Kennedy and Bella are about as close to mine as you can get, and I just finished their Easter dresses. I made Bella's first, and Kennedy surprised us by wanting a matching one.... How could I tell that sweetie no?? SO, these are on their way to Utah tomorrow..... I have one more set and a few pillowcase dresses to do, and I'll be finished.... Whew. I'm ready for a break.

The sunshine has finally come back to Alabama along with some COLD April weather..... We took these this weekend. The girls were so happy to be out running wild in the yard. We were all stir crazy from being trapped indoors from the weather..... My girls are just so beautiful they take my breath away..... I can't claim any genetic link, so I can brag on their beauty all I want! They are gorgeous though and SO sweet. Here are my 2 favorites from the weekend:

My sweet Anne Pearce..... I don't know why I love this picture so much, but I do.......

Essie Baby Cakes..... She is the sweetest little baby ever. She really melts my heart. God has blessed us so with all 4 of our kids. Spring Break is next week, so I should be able to corner my gorgeous boys for some pictures. They look like men.....Until then, if you figure out how to freeze kiddos please send me an email ;)

I forgot to mention this when I published earlier. I have been researching a lot about my health condition (dysautonomia) looking for ANY ways to help with my symptoms. I have read about several people who are in complete remission through exercise. When I think back over the years and how my illness progressed I see how it all started to go downhill when I stopped running and working out. I started experiencing some exercise intolerance and just stopped. That was probably the worst thing I ever did.....As soon as I wrap up all the sewing getting back into shape is going to be the biggest priority after my family. I am so motivated! Knowing I can change how I feel all the time is driving me to whip this 38 year old body back into shape. I know you guys have heard this before, but I'm really ready to make myself a priority. My goal is to run again. I KNOW I can do it. It will take a lot of time and patience, but I am committed. I'll let you all know how it goes....

Love and hugs,
