Getting Ready

Today I mowed the yard and worked on laundry. Rick is off tomorrow so I'm trying to have all the little chores done. He has a 9am appointment with the eye doctor. I'm so glad he's going. He's been needing glasses for a very long time. After the kids get home from school tomorrow we are off for a four day weekend at Navarro Mills Lake. Should be alot of fun! I baked two 13X9 brownies today. I hope I can resist them. I am trying my darnest to be good. I'm back up a half a pound today. Pisses me off. Has to be those dang M&Ms I ate!

Hanging In There

I'm doing pretty good at staying active on the WiiFit. I've clocked over 8 hours. My goal is to do at least 30 minutes a day. Is a bummer I can't do it this weekend while we are at the lake :( So far I've lost 3lbs! I'm off to take the girls to gymnastics! I spent today catching up on Hawkeye paper work. We're waiting for a wire from a job we finished on Monday. I hate waiting!

Silly Second Graders


Yesterday was our first day back to school. The girls were very excited about it. They absolutely adore their teachers. They were very tired by the time they got home though. I'm sure in no time they will slip right back in the groove of things. I spent the morning serving coffee, milk, and juice at the boohoo breakfast and then the rest of the afternoon helping Amanda's teacher get settled.

Saturday Summary

We enrolled in dance school today. They are all signed up at the new school. It looked very nice! I hope it all works out. The girls will be in the 3rd and 4th grade class since this is their 5th year of dance. They got black taps shoes, pink ballets, and black jazz shoes. They will go for an hour and half every Thursday. We are going to have a very busy second grade year. Wednesday is gymnastics, Thursday is dance, and Friday is Girl Scouts. Makes me tired just thinking about it but it's worth it! I'm curious to see how much home work the girls will have this year. I know they have to memorize their math facts! Thats going to be a challenge in itself!

Keeping At It

Did about a hour on the WiiFit today. I've lost two pounds in five days. Basically the only I've done different is the WiiFit. I'm not really dieting all though I'm trying to eat sensible. Girls are driving me bonkers! Three more days and school starts! Woohoo! I'm excited as they are!

Last night was meet the teacher night. Both their teachers seem very nice. Me and Antionette had a table for Girl Scouts. Tonight we have a girl scout round up. I hope that we are able to get six more girls! I'm looking forward to getting the troop going again. We are going to meet on Friday nights.

Saturday is Dance signs ups! Is going to be some major changes this year with the new studio. I am hoping the girls make the dance team this year. We shall see!

New Beginning

Three days ago I bought a Wii Fit! It's alot of fun but I'm so sore! It's cool that I can compete against the kids. They love it as much as I do!

Rick is gone to Waco and won't be back till Friday. It's tough being by myself 24/7 with the girls. They havn't been behaving very well lately. I think they are sick of each other. I'm ready for school to start.

Thursday is Meet The Teacher night! The girls are very excited to start second grade! Mommy is too! I just like my me time ALOT!
