8 months

On February 2nd Meadow turned 8 Months and I actually took pictures to document it. soon I will post her 10 month picture :)

so much has happened

A lot has gone on since my last posting. One big thing is Peanut turning 8!

waking up on her birthday morning and getting ready to open her gifts, which were mostly clothes from JUSTICE (her favorite store, my least favorite store)

This is the first year we were able to have her birthday party on her actual birthday (february 6) She wanted to have a Valentines brunch.

Menu included:

cinnamon rolls with pink frosting

breakfast casserole (which only the adults ate)

Pink lemonade

strawberries

Lots of games and activities:

bracelet making

valentine IPOD making

chocolate strawberry and pretzel dipping

Don't eat pete

musical chairs

heavy heavy hang over they poor head

Finley has now graduated to professional chocolatier

we just need to teach to stop licking his fingers, but who can resist? I know I can't.

Wow, it has been a long time! Do you want my excuse?? If you know me I have and excuse for everything right? My excuse this time. I am lazy, that is all there is to it. Well, I am lazy and the fact that I gained like 4 lbs. overnight, yes overnight. Don't know how it happened, maybe my scale was broken and it was giving me a wrong reading all along. I was waiting to see if it would break again and start giving me the lesser weigh again-it didn't so here we go again. My loss last week was.................................Minus 1 lb.

My loss for this Wednesday is.......................................Minus 1 lb.

I have realized it is alot easier to post losses than it is to post gains. _duh_ of course it is. Who wants to admit they gained weight. So I am going to try and be better and just swallow my pride.

Pathetic..........That is the word for today's weigh in (and last weeks and the week before that and the week before that). BUT I am NOT giving up. Anyone have any tricks up their sleeves? what works for you and what doesn't? Has anyone ever heard of slow weight loss due to nursing? I am still nursing meadow, not much only like two times a day, but it is still something. I don't know I am diggin deep for some answers. Maybe I need to give up bread........but I LOVE bread{whine}.

Wednesday #5

My computer is being weird and won't let me change my graphic. So the weigh in result for today is..............................

Minus

.6

i am just inching my way along.

I hope to be back to my picture a day soon. I had a lot going on last week and over the weekend, I am still trying to recover, I am almost there.

goodbye 7!

Today is Peanut's last day of being 7.

She wanted to get glitter toes to help say goodbye to 7th year.

But, Peanut.......8 is great!!!!

Wednesday #4

I bet you have all been dying to see my progress. Here is the big number for this week.

Obviously diet alone is not doing enough. I started an excercise program yesterday. I will see what that does for my goal.
