Once upon a life.... Funny thing the kids have said lately: September 2008 Annabelle was chewing on something as she walked in to the room. Jenny: Annabelle, what is in your mouth Annabelle: Gum Jenny: Where did you get gum? Annabelle sticks her finger up her nose and says "like this" December 2008 Annabelle: "Upside Over" (means upside down) Zeke "oops Excuse me, I farted, I'm a gassy boy" Annabelle "Chick a Body" (Shake your body, as she shakes and wiggles he little bum!) Annabelle and Zeke: Whenever any one bumps their head they say "Bonkey Daddy Heady" Even if its not Caleb Current mood: Current music: silencce. So I am well over due to post and so I should probably post something long, and meaningful........ But instead I'm going to say that I am happy that we are leaving for Illinois on Saturday. We will spend a week with the families. It will be super nice for a break for the following reasons 1. We haven't see our families in super long. I miss them, all of them. 2. Our kids are doing so many new things that our families haven't seen: it's nice to share our kids with their Grandparents. 3. . We have cute kids, and when we are around other people they tell us that and people telling us that , makes all their little annoyances seem so much smaller. 4. I have on average changed 20 diapers per day for the last week. That is what having a home daycare will get 'cha. I'm hoping to have at least one day over the holiday in which I change ZERO diapers in one day. :) Here's to hoping. Current mood: Current music: Ray Charles.
Current mood: busy. Current music: kids. Is it pathetic that most of the things that I could even think of to put on my birthday wish list for Caleb were things for my kids or that have to do with kids? I guess since I spend so much time with the little munchkins I think about the cool gadgets, gizmos, and gear that would make my life as a mom easier or possibly more fun. Although I refuse to buy pointless devices like a wipes warmer, a bottle drying rack, or all name brand clothing for my children. I do try to keep up with the cool stuff that they sell for babies, and toddlers. 1. My new birthday Present (Thank You Caleb) ![]() I expect to use this one a lot for both outside and inside use. I have been dreaming of such a gadget that would keep my kids contained while we were on walks or in the mall, or at the zoo. It is not here yet but it looks like the nice weather is coming just in time!

Current mood: Current music: wii sounds. The Everything TestThere are many different types of tests on the internet today. Personality tests, purity tests, stereotype tests, political tests. But now, there is one test to rule them all.Traditionally, online tests would ask certain questions about your musical tastes or clothing for a stereotype, your experiences for a purity test, or deep questions for a personality test.We're turning that upside down - all the questions affect all the results, and we've got some innovative results too! Enjoy :-)
TAKE THE TEST brought to you by thatsurveysite Current mood: Current music: On the phone to Caleb. So we are into week 3 of Caleb and my fitness goal. So far it is working. I have lost 5 pounds so far. The goal is for me to loose 15. More than loosing weight for me it is trying to get rid of the extra pouch that once having a baby inside of you creates. I like doing Tae-Bo it makes me feel powerful and it pushes me every time. I loaned out my basic workout video (20 minutes) so I am stuck with the 40 minute version, probably a good thing since it pushes me harder. So far I have been doing really good with not eating so much, and totally cutting down on the sweets and unhealthy snacks I was eating. It is really helping that Caleb and I are doing this together. Current mood: Current music: zeke whistling as he sleeps. We are now entering week 2 of our fitness challenge, and I am feeling pretty good about it. Besides the fact that our scale doesn't always work (maybe a good thing) I have made progress. I met all my goals for this week. I worked out 5 days this week, drank more water, ate much healthier, and dang am I sore. Alright that last one wasn't really a major goal, but I knew it would hurt to get back into shape... but I forgot just how bad it hurt. Current mood: accomplished. Current music: the sound of online poker (caleb). A father son moment. Zeke: "Daddy, A pocket!" Caleb: "No, that's not a pocket, it's called a fly" Zeke: "Pocket Fly?" Caleb: "Don't put your hand in it" Current mood: Current music: not sure. Current mood: Current music: Old MacDonald had a Farm. Caleb (
My goal is to lose 15 lbs in 25 weeks. And to lose 5 inches around my waist (mostly getting rid of the baby belly) I plan to exercise 5 days a week. Including 20 minutes of cardio. And at least 10 minutes of crunches, lunges, squats, and leg lifts targeting my abs. I plan to change my eating habits as well. -Sensible breakfast -health shake for lunch -only healthy snacks -drink a lot more water I would welcome any tips from anyone who has experience and similar goals. Current mood: Current music: kids "zeke saying no spitting". |
