  • Hey good morning to all you mommies! How was your weekend with the kiddos? Mine was alright. My parents came to visit, which happens often, and I was a little annoyed....since my DD is the first grandchild, my parents are crazy about my DD....to the point where its annoying!!!

    On the other hand, the weekend did go by fast...I didn't even get the chance to workout. Plus, I weighed my self this morning and I am down another 2 lbs! Woo hoo!

    Hope you all have a great monday!
  • Ive been packing and my Son has been Un-packing for me! its so frustrating lol
  • Hey ladies! My weekend was pretty good but long since DH had drill. I finally got the guts to sign up for a moms group and I am meeting up with them today. I hope I meet another mom there I click with because I just dont have many friends and none of them I am really close with. I feel like a hermit lol.
    I finally made it back down to the 150s I'm soooo excited!! I havent seen that number in over a year and if I get below 158 it will be the lowest I have been as an adult

    Lizzie- Great job on the 2 lbs!!!
  • Good luck Yellie you can do it!!

    I was soooo excited to hit 140 that was my Pre-baby Pre-marriage weight!
  • My weekend went super fast.

    I got on the scale this morning and was very upset. I worked out everyday except Friday and ate below or in my cal range and I was up to higher than when I started. I'm hoping it's that TOM (I have an IUD and have no symptoms or anything so I never know but my face broke out a lil too) or my muscles are retaining water because they are super sore.

    Who know!? Just crossing my fingers that it goes down a bunch by Friday.
  • If you've been doing everything right than YES it is water! Dont worry about it and try to avoid the scale for a bit.
  • jahjah: that's frustrating! i hope you finish up soon!

    yelie: that's awesome!

    Lynsey: don't let the scale bring you down. most likely, it is water weight! keep up the good work!
  • lyns- I feel you on the gain! I changed my ticker because in 4 days time I went from 195 to 196.8 to 191.8 to 196.6!!! Ahh what a big change...although I did not excercise this weekend or eat SUPER healthy so monday is back on track...oh and my TOM is being weird and I should be fully starting any second now lol. Time to work out soon.
    Oh yeah and my son turned 2 on Friday!
  • My weekend went super fast too!

    My SO had a wood fire going in our stove and the pipe was clogged or broke, I dont really know but our whole house filled with smoke. So we have spent all day yesterday washing walls and curtains. Trying to get the smoke smell out of the house. And today I have been washing all of our coats and clothes so they dont smell.

    Needless to say we are getting rid of our wood stove!!
  • I think James is teething like crazy! I'm trying to plan his birthday party and it seems like the time is not on my side!!!

    Happy birthday to your son, BL!
  • leighish: I'm right there with you in teething ****. DD is about to get her first tooth. We can see it under the gum. She has been cranky and miserable! She woke up 3 times last night! I hope it passes soon!
  • hey all, my monday has been good, expect for the fact that i cant get kate to keep her room clean for more than 2 seconds! i really need a new organizing way of keeping her toys but i have no idea how lol.

    today was my first day of school, i walked so that's a total of 3.6 miles, i plan on doing it tomorrow and everyday i have class so that's 4 days a week. shortly after i came home a fire started in the apt underneath mine, i assume it was small because it didn't spread to any other apt and mine didn't fill with smoke but the ones next to it did!

    have a good night everyone!
  • haleygirl82: That's great that you walked to school!! Sounds like you got some good exercise in! You are very lucky the fire didn't spread!
  • hi gals! New (to forum) mommy here.. I have 2 kids.
    1 seven year old little girl and 1 9 month old little boy.

    It's finally getting chilly here In Atlanta, GA and I have to bundle everyone up nice and warm for my daily walk in the park.

    I may need to start just doing my dvds until it warms up which I hate
    I much rather prefer walking outside and getting fresh air.

    So yep. Hello everyone!
  • ooo I hated teething...all the drooling and nose running and crankiness..glad that is pretty much over..my son had all his teeth up to his first molar by 13 months so I haven't had to deal with it for a while now.
    Leighish- Wanna hear something weird? I totally had a dream and you were in it last night. Dont know how but I was at someone's house with a whole bunch of people and you were there with your baby and I was like "HEY I know you" and then you went into the other room and shut the door haha. So much for my screwed up brain.
