It's That Time Again

What time you ask? Time for the worst kind of training we as parents have to do (in my opinion)! Potty training time. Agh. I was going to wait until Conner started school and we could have time without destraction. Well I changed my mind because he kept getting rashes. I thought maybe I just needed to change him more often but they just aren't going away. I decided to see what his doctor thought I should do about it. She suggested moving up the potty training schedule and just jumping in. Well that's what we did. While Iwas shopping at khols yesterday I let Logan pick out some undies. He was very excited about them. So far so good. We have only had one accident today but he hasn't tried to go big potty yet so we will cross that bridge when we get there. I will be glad when this part of life is over and he just knows what to do. In the meantime we will take it one trip to the bathroom at a time!!

Shopping

This morning I went shopping for DaraLynn. She is growing out of all her clothes. I took a few things back to Khols and JCPennys and got a few new things. The prices were great. I got lots of things for two and three dollars. It was fun. Here's what I bought.

Weigh In

So my first weigh in was last night. I am down four pounds in a little over a week. I was so excited. It was nice to see progress. It is very encouraging and a good start to the next week. I have been going with Jackie, Bev, and Martha. They have a little tradition for Weight Watchers meeting nights. They eat light on points all day and weigh in then go to dinner and order whatever they want. I have happily entered into this tradition. It is actually a weird mental thing that goes on for me with this splurge dinner. Let me see if I can put it into words. You count points all week and watch what you eat hoping that at the next weigh in your down a bit from the previous weight. You then get to splurge and the one night of blowing my diet helps my brain to keep going on my diet. It makes me more determined to loose more. Not sure that makes any since to anyone's brain but mine! Oh well. My goal this week is to loose more and get a better and more consistent work out schedule.

Back To It

Got up at 6:45 this morning! Ugh!!! Went out to the hot, humid, garage. Yes it was already hot and humid that early in the morning although bearable compared to the rest of the day. I turned on my step aerobics video and got back to exercising. I have put on a lot of weight since having Logan. Having another baby twenty months later didn't help the weight issues either. Anyway I am trying to shed the weight by optioning my self less to eat then normal and not buying sodas to have around the house. Now those who know me know that the hard part of this for me will not be the getting up to work out or the potion control or anything else that people find hard about weight loss stuff. It will be the not buying sodas to have around the house and portion controlling my intake of soda. You can take the desserts from me, go ahead they are all yours just please not the sodas! Oh well I will survive.

Update on our bags. They were found. They went to the wrong area of the airport. I was thankful it ended up being no big deal. I will post pics next week from our camera pics. It was a great trip.
