We are back and Disney was wonderful. We had an awesome time. Alex was sick the last couple of days tho. We kept him in the hotel on Friday. He's got an awful cold. He loved swimming in the pool. I can't wait to put his up this summer. He also loved the character breakfast. He was absolutely NOT scared of them. He went right up and sat down by them. I'll post some pics once I get my camera downloaded.
Glad you are back. Sorry he got sick though. Poor guy.
I'm off to surgery Monday. I am sure nervous. I'll check in from my hospital bed. I dropped some weight this week. I'm at 202 now. Woohoo!! I really wanted to see that 200 today though. Oh well, I have my whole life right? Have a great week everyone!
K has bruised ribs and I have to take her in for another x-ray today...She is soo miserable and sore that I have to grab her from her butt to pick her up..She would scream when she tried to reposition herself in the bed while sleeping.. If I wouldnt love DH soo much I would be away from SD#2 soo fast so K could have a chance...(long story)..Poor baby, first nightly nose bleeds and now this...
RR
Hello all,
Karen I am glad that you were able to enjoy most of your vacation. Sorry to hear that Alex got sick. Time sure seems to fly by.
Chick, good luck on the surgery. Congrats on loosing weight.
RR, Good luck with the exersizes, we are all rooting for you.
I finally got that report written Fri. Night. (It was due Sat. morn) Now I have another one due in one week. I can not wait until I am able to get back to the gym. I had them put a hold on my account for 2 months because my ex was not sending the alimony on time. Now I have gotten everything straitened out, but cant go back in until March. I will be back in Mar. 1.
Well now I have to get ready for school so talk at ya all later.
karen - wow that week went fast, great to hear you all had such a great time in spite of Alex getting sick. I hope he is feeling much better now.
Lauren - Can't wait to see the pics.
Chick netx door - congrats on your loss, don't worry that magic 200 will be here in no time, you are doing so well. Good luck with the surgery I hope all goes well.
Roadrunner - Great article! good luck with it. you can do it!
Lisa - yay another paper in, everyone you get in is one less you have to do right? one paper at a time thats how I'm doing it lol.
Well I am officially back at uni and am now wondering why I was in such a hurry lol. The workload this session is phenomenal. My first day back was yesterday and I was up to nearly midnight last night working (I did take an hour off for the biggest loser - we are in the middle of the first series over here, there are 5 of them left). Got some fantastic news yesterday, My MIL agreed to come down and look after the kids for my first week of clinical prac in april, well it turns out the kids are on school holidays that week and can stay at her place. It's easier for her that way and best of all (and please bear in mind I really do love my children lol) they will be 3 hours away for an entire week! That means after working hubby and I will have an entire week to ourselves! We have never had that ever! Since I had 2 kids when we met, the most time we spent alone was a weekend. yay i can't wait!.
DH & Peter built a snowman after work today...notice the belly button...actually it was an attempt at buttons...and the feet. The little "snowball" sticking out the left side is Peter's contribution! And DH just told me if I had looked behind him, I would've seen his butt!! It's really good packin' snow.
Lauren what cute pictures. Robby is so adorable. I also loved the snowman. The feet were a nice touch.
Amity, I understand about the workload. We are already trying to schedule winter and fall classes. For Summer I will have 3 of 4 classes that are accelarated and for Fall it will be 4 of 5. I am sooo not looking forward to that.
Congrats on the week alone with hubby. (Even though you both will be working) It will be nice to just relax in the evening with each other.
It's been a crazy couple of days here. I couldn't sleep Monday night. It was about 3am before I finally went to sleep. Last night DH couldn't sleep. So, of course, that meant I couldn't sleep either. It was after 2 last night. I feel like I've been run over by a friggin truck. My head hurts, my nose is stuffed up and I'm sneezing my head off. OK. Enough whinning! DH is working in the city today so I can't complain to him!
Chick: I'm sending you get well vibes. I hope everything has gone OK for you. Yeah on the two pounds!
Lauren: Cute baby! I want one! Maybe you should call me one night when he has you up and let me listen to him hollering for awhile. Then maybe I will get over this! The snowman is adorable. Just what I needed after a week in the heat...a snowstorm!
RR: I'm so sorry that things are not going well with with SD #2. Is there nothing that can be done to protect K? Poor little thing with sore ribs. I hope she is feeling better. Give her a gentle little hug and a smooch from NJ.
Amity: Cool on the week without kids! I'm sure I'll be there sometime. A couple of hours without him is my limit right now.
OK, gotta go feed the boy lunch. Have a great day all!
Geez, I can't hardly get on here long enough to type a proper post!
Karen, I'll be happy to meet up with you someday before I go back to work and you can get your baby fix in! Hope your both feeling better soon!
Amity, WooHoo, sounds exciting, time along w/DH! And I'm sure the kids will love being with their grandma!
Lisa, that's great that your gym will put your account on hold for something other than a medical reason. March 1st will be here before you know it!
RR, I'm soo sorry to hear that #2 is hurting K soo much. What the heck happened?! Is there nothing DH can do about it to help?
CND, Hope the surgery went well, I said a few prayers for you. Please check in when you can and let us know!
I weighed myself at the Drs. last week, and also on my scale (which I finally found since the move), and I'm 12 lbs. less than what I was at the start of this PG! So I'm pretty excited about that. It felt really good trying on that outfit I bought for the baptism, it looked good on and felt good. Now I want more clothes!! The skirt was a size smaller than normal...but it's slightly stretchy too. I want to go to Curves again, but don't have the money right now, and really don't have the time either. DH also wants to exercise, but same thing, no time. Maybe in a couple months it'll be easier to handle both kids with one parent, and he'll be able to go in the AM and I can go at night. I'm also thinking of joining WW again. Have the points changed a lot since 123? I have all the materials from then, but I know some stuff has changed. I could probably just follow it that way too...
Not much going on around here. I can't get a break in the not sleeping department. Alex decided that he needed to go from 4:30 - 6am with his feet in my head. Or, jumping on my head. Or taking his fingernails and digging them in my arm. Ugh. I did get lucky in that he slept until 9:45. I can't wait for him to go to bed tonight. I'm going to bed at the same time.
Hi everyone! Haven't had much time to post lately. Have been busy with redecorating the little ones rooms. It was a lot of fun and definaterly good exercise. Hope everyone is feeling better. Congrats on the 12 pound weight loss!!
Ann
Karen!! Where did all those curls come from?!?! I'm soo jealous!! That's great that he loved playing with the characters!
Ann, Nice to see you. Post pics of the rooms when you're done!
I'm excited, I get to go shopping tomorrow for clothes!! I don't have a lot of cash to spend, but hopefully I can hit a few sales and clearance racks.
Does anyone have a spare POINTS finder they could send me? I have all my WW materials, except that! I want to start writing everything down that I eat, and seeing how many points it comes to, in preparation to start WW again. If you have one, please PM me! THANKS!!
Lauren, Congrats on the clothes shopping. JC Penneys is having a sale this weekend on all their clearance.
Hello to everyone else. I'm off to do yet another paper. Actually I have two to do this weekend. March 23rd can't come soon enough. (Spring Break) I think that is the date.
