Well, if you haven't already noticed my ticker changed .... and not the way it should be! I weighed in for my new challenge with one of the swim moms, and officially started our challenge at 202!! Grrrr, I'm so mad at myself - why do I have to be the fat kid? It always amazes me that there are women out there that can not worry about what they eat and still look amazing, what planet are they from!? I so want to be back in my skinny clothes and preferably before summer is over so I can enjoy wearing tank tops and shorts! I broke down and bought new "fat" jeans but only because the button fell off my old ones! And let me say that when that happened it didn't make me feel much better about myself! So, I am back on the wagon and not doing too terrible (I think?), except for the fact that I baked cookies today and sampled one OK three BUT I went shopping and bought all the things I need to make Beef Minestrone soup that is low calorie!! It's in the slow cooker as we speak!! :) I think things will be much easier when I go back to work, then I won't be checking out the snack cupboard every half hour.
O - I almost forgot .... Jacob is now 11 months!! Yah! The time is going faster and faster, it feels like just last week he was 10 months!? So, things that are new for him .... he now weighs 24lbs 1oz and is 29" long! His most favorite things to do during the day is learn how to walk and I'm his personal walker! He pulls himself up on things and walks around furniture and walls. He now says a few words like "Mom", "Dad", "dog", "foot" and other babble that sometimes sounds like words but these things I'm certain he knows what they are. He shakes his head no now and sometimes like to hit his head on the wall (which is apparently common). His naps are once again far and few between, lately I'm lucky if he naps for half an hour a day but then at least he goes to bed early (7ish) and doesn't wake till 6:30am the next day. Only sometimes he wakes in the middle of the night and wants a snack. Jacob will definitely be walking on his own by his birthday, which I'm very excited for!!
Speaking of birthdays, the Mom group is planning a group party and it is on the 31st! We drew names for gifts and I'm very excited for the party! I'm sure it will be tons of fun! It's neat to look at all the babies and remember them as "baby blobs" and now they are a going concern and always on the go! This weekend I have it all to myself .... no baby .... for the entire weekend!! :o I'm excited and yet worried, not worried about who is looking after him and what they will be doing but more worried about being away that long and worried that his routine might get messed up? Not that his naps are all that great right now but I'm so hoping that he sleeps good during the night for them! I'm also thinking about if I should stop in for a visit Saturday after supper (before bed) or would that make matters worse, for me and Jacob? I'm worried about how I will feel if I don't go see him and worried that if I do go see him that I will want to take him home?! I'm sure I will figure it out when the time comes.
I finished the Twilight series and LOVED them!! I think I will read them again, as soon as the person I lent the book to is finished with it! I'm a little sad with how it ended, I want more! I hope she writes more novels to continue the story, I have so many unanswered questions! ;) Anyway, that is about all that is new here, now I must go on other sites I visit while I have a chance! Have a good weekend!
