scattered stories

My goodness - my kids are acting like they had coffee injected into their bodies all night last night...They woke up this morning so hyper - and haven't slowed down since. I have no idea what is going on! They are nuts! This weekend was pretty lazy. We had Logan's t-ball game on Saturday at 8 in the morning...but after that we weren't very productive. I guess we have dropped the second nap with Landry - I dunno, its still kind of in limbo. On Saturday she went down for a nap at 11:30 and woke up at 2:15 and went to bed at 7:30. on Sunday she took her nap at 12:30 and slept until 2:15 and went to bed at 7:45. So she is only taking the one nap and we will see how today goes. she is pretty funny though. She will go to her room and get her blanket and puppies from her bed and carry them around then stop and lay down for a few minutes then get up and carry them to another spot. LOL
Today I have been working on uploading my photos to my shutterfly account. I have been really bad about this and so now I am very behind - and I want to order some prints. Ughh! Usually I just plug in my SD card and import the photos to my computer and then upload them to Facebook - but I haven't been putting them on my shutterfly account - which makes it difficult to order prints! Geez! So I guess I will be busy with that today. I am really hoping to get to the mall in Austin Today or tomorrow. I would like to buy the kids an Easter outfit before I take them to the wild flower center. It looks like I will be going on my own because we just have too much going on during the weekends...and I can tell JR isn't really THRILLED about going - so we will see how that works out. Tomorrow is Toddler time and story time at the public library in Buda at 10:30 and Wednesday is preschooler story time, so I am going to start trying to take the kids up to the Library for story time on Tuesday's and Wednesday's. We will see how it goes, but I think it might be nice for them.
JR weighed in at 317 yesterday, which is an 8 pound weight loss for last week. He is hoping to lose 17 pounds by the time we take our trip to the casino - which means he has 12.5 more days. He was able to run/walk twice this week, but his back hurt so badly the next day that it was all he could do. I told him he should just try doing it every other day...or 3 times a week, Mon. - Wed. - Sat....but I guess we will just have to see. I am sure he could lose 10-12 pounds a week if he was working out, but I dont want him doing anything that will further hurt his back. He is supposed to get an MRI done sometime in the next two weeks! Ughhh, at least he can put his own socks on now! LOL
I am still at 133...I dont think I am going to get any further down...I work out 5 times a week, and I am eating the same diet JR is - So I just dont know what else to do. We only have today and tomorrow left on cycle 3 then we are headed back to cycle 1 - which was the hardest cycle, but also the ONLY cycle I lost weight on! So we will see, maybe I can drop a few more pounds - at some body fat. It is so easy for JR to stay so encouraged...he is dropping the weight so easily, none of his clothes fit anymore, so he has to go shopping for new clothes, you can visually see the changes - so he doesn't get discouraged...me on the otherhand...my clothes aren't fitting any different, there are no visible signs of weight loss, and the number on the scale isn't getting any lower - therefore I am a little discouraged...but I dont mind keeping it up - because I know it is working for JR and I couldn't be more proud of him! - Now, I promise not to talk about the diet again until next Monday for a weekly update!!!
Hope you all have a wonderful week!
