Weigh in Wed

So I still feel extremely guilty and embarrassed about my "worst Mom of the Year" story! Jacob is still doing very well in his new big boy bed, last night I put him to bed a little bit sooner then he wanted and as I was sitting on the couch folding laundry all of a sudden he was standing in the hallway holding the biggest stuffed puppy he has with a cute little grin. I couldn't' get mad, all I could do was giggle and let him stay up a little longer. I understood, we had just got home from the gym and even I don't like going straight to bed when I get home, you need to wind down a bit. I explained to him that he could stay up for another half hour and play, then it was bedtime, so we played for a bit, read some books and then a half hour later off we went .... no problems, no whining and no escaping! I sure hope this keeps up, he is pretty good at going to bed and hopefully it will stay that way!!

So as I said above, I did go to the gym last night and ran into my girlfriend there so that was nice, it made the time fly by! This morning I weighed in to see that I am down 1.8lbs! I know it's not much but it's a start, slow and steady .... right? I'm enjoying going to the gym and try to go at least 3 times a week and I think Jacob is starting to enjoy the daycare a little more.

Tonight I have a toy party at my house, I'm starting to think though that I should have made the party for a little bit later so I have more time to tidy and get ready! O - well, at least this way maybe it will be over early enough for Jacob to get to bed at a decent time?! Then this weekend I have TWO baby showers to go to !! One for a lady we met from swimming and the other is one of my bestest friends!! :) It will be a very busy day and I'm hoping Jacob is good for both events. Then on Sunday I will probably have to go back out to St.Albert to see my Dad, I know he mentioned to me last weekend that he would probably be needing some groceries this week. And I know I said that I have to start spending more time at home taking care of MY house and family but it's hard to do that when I know my Dad is so sick and asks to see his Grandchild!? I just have to remember that it probably won't be much longer so I should just make the best of the time we have left and not worry too much about my housework falling a bit behind. As long as it's just floors and dusting that get ignored!? ;)
