We did it!!!!!

Well we found out Tuesday night that all of us passed our test and Jamie, Emily and I got our orange belts, the rest of the class moved up in rank as well. I can not believe that I did it!!! I never really did sports in school, only 1 year of softball when I was in either 5th or 6th grade and that is the extent of my athletic career. I also never worked out. When we started this back in September I said all kind of bad things about this and my Teacher Mr Shay. Because as I said "I am overweight, 41 years old and one of the laziest people". But low and behold I stuck to it and I did it, and I really do like it and look forward to class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. And to Mr Shay thank you for your help and you encouragement, sorry about the not so nice things I said and thought about in the beginning. Also Jamie and Emily thank you for keeping me going and not letting me quit, I love you both.

January 5, 2011 My Boys

These are our "boys" Carson is the one with all the hair and not smiling, which is not like him he was just having an off day. He is 10 months going to 11 months on the 11, and he is almost walking and he is a rough and tumble kind of kid and always on the move. He does not like to sleep very much in the day, I think he is afraid he is going to miss something. I have him 4 to 5 days a week. The other little one with the bright eyes and huge smile is Geno and he is always smiling. He is 8 moths old and going to be 9 months old on the 14, and he is now doing the Army crawl and let me tell you this kid can move faster than you can blink your eyes. He is my sleeper he will sleep for 2 to 3 hours at a time. I have Geno 2 to 3 days a week. This is the best job I have ever had and both boys have become a part of our family. Emily loves them both very much, expect when the start to cry. On to an update on me, well I go to the doctors today to get a check up and find out how much I actually weigh and how much I need to lose, and stuff like that. I will let you all know how that all goes. I did finish the bathroom and now I need to start on the kitchen.
Thank you all for your comments here and on facebook, they really help.

January 4, 2011 What was I thinking

Well sitting here eating breakfast, I realized that I forgot to post yesterday. Yesterday was a busy day, Carson was here and boy can that kid get around, he is almost walking across a room, and now Geno is here today and he is doing the Army crawl and wow can this kid move. Which leads me to think, What on earth was I thinking when I said I would watch these two. But seriously I love them both like they were mine and I enjoy my days with them. Another good thing about them being mobile is that I now know what is going to help lose some of this weight. Any way on the cleaning part I started the bathroom and am going to hopefully finish it today. I have decided that this spring we are going to paint.
Today's goals, Keep up with Geno and Carson, yep that's right they are both here today. Finish the Bathroom, cook dinner and go to martial arts tonight. I will let you know how I do tonight after my butt kicking.

Well today was a productive day, we went to church all 3 of us, Jamie had the day off. Then went to the grocery store because I had nothing for Emily's lunch and since she goes back to school tomorrow I think she needs some stuff. Anyway, came home and took a nap because Emily decided to have a "bad dream" and come into our room at 3 in the morning. After that I watched the second half of the Steelers game, but I think the Browns forgot to show up. Took all the decorations down and made eggs for Emily for dinner since Jamie said he was not hungry. Also got Emily working on her martial arts, she is doing better at it, so we will see if she can test with us on January 15. Say a prayer that she can. Tomorrows goal is to call the doctors and get in for a check up since I have not had one in a while and I need to talk to him about how I am sleeping. Also to start cleaning out either the kitchen or the bathroom, those are the 2 easiest rooms to start with and to not beat my husband, since he is home tomorrow. Oh by the way Carson comes tomorrow so I will need my roller skates.

January 1, 2011

Well it is New Year's Day and I did nothing but stay in my Jammie's and watch movies and play with Emily. We made some jewelery with her new kits she got for Christmas, and I actually cooked breakfast and lunch. Pancakes for breakfast and chicken noodle soup for lunch. Then Jamie came home from work and we went for dinner at his mom's. So I did not do to much but it was a nice calm start to the new year. Tomorrow I am going to hit the ground running with church first and then take down the decorations and clean up the house, because on Monday the babies are back. For of you that do not know I watch 2 little ones during the day. Carson is 10 months old and was just about walking before Christmas, then there is Geno, he is 8 months old and just starting to crawl. So as you can see I now have my hands full, but it is the best job I have ever had. Not sure what to make for dinner tomorrow night, maybe stuffed shells?
