Thursday night, my MIL and I took the girls to the rides at Sertoma Park, since it was free. Fun but a late night. We got home about 10 pm and I drank a few beers with the neighbors, my husband and our dear friend from here but living in KS.
Friday night was our anniversary and we went and had a 1/2 order of nachos to share and I had a margerita. We then went to the Oar for drinks. 2 Clam Diggers & 2 beers there.... Then to the Grand Round for a shared order of fajitas and a mudslide.
Saturday was a wedding. We went to brunch before though. I didn't eat too bad considering I ate only twice that day. I drank 2 beers that night.
Sunday we had brunch with my FIL and then went boating on the river. I ate too much at brunch!
I forgot to add that Wade was off. I didn't get any exercise in Friday, Saturday or Sunday! Well, except for danicing with my girls all night long!!
So... if I gain this week, I know why!

Sick Baby
Well, Saturday, Sunday and Monday Taylor has been running a fever. I thought it may be teething until Sunday afternoon her fever spiked at 101. I thought that was too high for teething. She has been fussy and clingy. Yesterday she started to develop a cough aside from her runny nose too. Lucky me! Please baby, feel better soon!

Happy Memorial Day!
Monday Weigh-In
I did see another negative number this week, but not suprisingly after last week's large number, this on is small. I lost 0.6 lbs. For a total of 18.4 lbs in 6 weeks.
This morning I woke up at 5:15, before my alarm went off. I had my "other" alarm howling. Poor Taylor is getting her eye teeth and had snot and drool all the way to her neck. I gave her some Tylenol, rocked her got her more milk and finally had to bring her into my bed (which usualy she hates!) to finally get her back to sleep. My goal - another hour for her to sleep= Mommy gets work out time!
Yesterday I was exhausted from 2 late nights and did not feel like working out, so slept in (with Taylor in my bed). Wade left to go fishing for the day (turned out to be the WHOLE day!). I took the girls to Grandma's to drop off cases of wine and a table we borrowed. I was going to go buy tomoto plats - but she had 2 extra cherry sprouts and an extra big tomato plant. She also gave the girls flower plants. We ran to the store and then potted the girls flowers, planted the tomatoes and planted seeds for zuchinni, squash, butternut squash and green beans. I then worked out with Alex as my helper. She was mad that she didn't have enough room to do Jillian with me (I do it downstairs, which isn't a huge space anyway!). She then got a ring pop and to watch sponge bob while I did the eliptical. Bribes always work! :o)

Tomorrow's Weigh-in
I am scared to weigh in tomorrow. I still worked out every day this week, the same if not more intensity no matter if I felt like it or not. I had a Mary Kay party on Friday night and had a few wine slushes, Saturday we had a BBQ with our neighbors and I ate both desserts that were brought - a peanut butter rice krispy treat with chocolate frosting and a chocolate pudding with cool whip pie with oreo crust. YUM! Okay, I also had a wine slush and 3 or 4 MGD 64's. Today for lunch I had leftovers from the BBQ - I love potato salad (only what me, My Mom or my sister make though)! I did buy light buns and FF dogs - it was the extras I did not plan for that sent me over! :o)
We'll see how I do in the morning. Until then, I will saok in the tub and enjoy!

A new bag to show!
Yesterday I didn't feel like working out. I turned Jillian off before it really started and did 20 min on the eliptical instead. I paid for it today. I did Jillian plus 30 min on the eliptical to make up for yesterday.
I have a new/old Zag Bag the debut:
I have a new/old Zag Bag the debut:
This is the Zonia Bag. It was made with rivets near the circles, you can kind of see them in this picture. This bag, if you designed it goes for $100 plus shipping and tax - of course! They now changed the style, because having the rivets limited the fabrics that would endure the weight on the rivets. So.... this one is FOR SALE! I will sell if for $70 OBO.
Give me a call at 701-425-3440 to book a party or for this bag (or the others pictured way below!).

Week 5 Weigh-In
Well, after 5 weeks of doing Weight Watchers, 2.5 weeks of morning workouts, I am proud to say.....
I LOST 3.6 POUNDS this week! I have lost 17.8 lbs in 5 weeks!
I don't know if stepping up and doing Jillian's 2nd workout did it, or the combo with eating most of my weekly points. Either way, I am estatic! I have 7.2 lbs to my origional goal (6 weeks from now). I say origional, because I don't think I am going to stop at that - which is the maximum healthy weight for my height. Well, see....

My favorite part of a day
My favorite part of a day is when I rock my baby Taylor Grace. Still, at now 17 months (yesterday), I rock her to sleep for her nap and bedtime. I know she is getting old for this and she doesn't always fall asleep while rocking anymore... but I still enjoy my snuggle time with her. I used to rock her while nursing her to sleep in her quiet bedroom, so now I continue the routine with a sippy cup. I know that it has been almost 2 months since my miscarriage, but this routine helped me through those hard moments. To hold and cherish my baby. I know if I did not miscarry before (Dec 06), I would not have Taylor to cuddle. There were many nights in March and April that I cried and prayed as I rocked her. Just thanking God for giving me my girls to love and trying to find some understanding of why he would take another pregnancy away from us. Also, to pray for another baby. I know that this is also why I have thrown myself so hard into working out, to keep my mind off of what isn't. It may be selfish thoughts, but we have 2 neighbors who are very pregnant, there is a gal at MOPS who the day I told my table I miscarried was telling hers that she was pregnant, plus a few other gals that I know that are very pregant. We got a call the other day to tell us that friends of ours in Kansas are expecting, a surprise. She has 3 boys by a previous marriage and they have 2 boys together and she is pregnant and due in October. I think we are going to see them this summer and it makes me sad since I would have been due the month after her.
I do have a cute/happy thing to share on this topic. The other night Alex really wanted to pray. Wade told her that we pray at bedtime, she was in her room, waiting to pray... I finally told her that she doesn't have to pray at bedtime, or in her room, or in the dark. She can pray where and whenever she wants. So in the living room, she folded her hands and said,
"Dear God, please give us another baby to make Mommy happy. Amen!"
I have been up this morning since about 3:45 am. I love to rock my baby, but not so much at quater to four in the morning! She did not sleep soundly until about 5:30 when I came downstairs to allow Jillian to kick my butt- then did the eliptical. It is going to be a long day!
