Good Morning Girls. :)

Diana:: Never heard of having a dinner BEFORE the ceremony. Is that common by you or just what this particular couple decided to do?? Glad you were able to find a dress...and on sale too! Love it when that happens! :D Did you try photo bucket?

Today's work out will be 4DS Shoulders/Core/Calves and a 20-30 min cardio sub for Lower Intensity Step. I need to take a rest day soon but I don't wanna. WAAAAH! :p Maybe tmrw....I know I am going to the gym with my BF on Tuesday evening so yeah, it's definitely going to have to be tmrw.

Reached 10,000 steps y'day. Yay me. :D

Guess that's all for now.

BBIAB!
 
Good Morning!

Enjoying my coffee in a quiet house:) DH went to look for trees for the front lawn and of course, DS went with him. I am thinking about taking him with me when I go for my run though. Its suppose to be sunny but it ain't sunny yet:confused:

Wendy** Maybe I will weigh my bb today:p I feel good so why not...hehe? My DH was 2 hrs looking for trees yesterday but when he leaves this house I never know when or if he is going to return. He always ends up finding someone to talk to OR he runs into the store, where he usually gets stuck. Drives me insane.
Good workout yesterday! I really like 4DS.

Diana** I am with Wendy, never heard of dinner before the ceremony. Woo Hoo on the dress! Gotta love bargins! I have a wedding this summer and prehaps I will just wear something out of my closet or maybe go to a friends house. I buy a new dress every summer and never wear it again. I think almost everyone I know is married now though...I shouldn't have to many more weddings to go to (people my age):)

Alright...I should go do some things while my house is still quiet! I will bbl!

Lori:)
 
Enjoy your quiet house, Lori! :)

I am heading out the door for a walk. It's cloudy and damp out there but not raining so I am going to take advantage of it. I will take DS with me this time.

BBL!
 
Hello Ladies!!

Back from the casino and the Bodies Revealed exhibit. It was very interesting. I can't really explain it any other way.

Wendy: Great job getting to 10k yesterday! I made it on Friday because I managed to get out for a walk on my lunch break, but I'm certain I didn't come close yesterday. I didn't even wear the GWF yesterday. I like the looks of the Fitbit. I came across that when researching the GWF and was rather taken by it, but I'm impatient when I decide I want something and didn't want to wait for its release :rolleyes: No gambling for me this weekend. I stayed with the kids and DSO did some though. He left even for the weekend, which to me is a success. I now know which hotel we'll be staying in when we go in August! (There are 3 or 4.) We stayed at the MGM and the rooms are beautiful! The beds are...OMG... I didn't want to get out of it yesterday!! Sooooooo comfy. I'm really looking forward to this.

Lori: I know what you mean about certain months being harder on the wallet than others. May is my month for that, with DD's b-day, DSO's b-day, my best friend's DD's b-day, Mother's day...ouch! Awesome run yesterday. So you're planning another today? Wow.

Diana: That nutrition program sounds really good, and I'm eager to hear what your experience with it is over the next few weeks. The ceremony yesterday sounds really nice. If DSO and I ever tie the knot, I suspect we'll do something similar. Having both been married before, a brief ceremony with family and close friends sounds most appropriate for us. Glad you were able to find a dress at the last minute. Most often, that's when I'm most successful. If I have too much time, I overthink and then can't decide.

Jacque: Sounds like you've been a busy little bug over the past couple days between cleaning and cooking! Hope everything went well with DS's dinner and that you all enjoyed yourselves. Things like that can do wonders for the step count, huh?

Laura: Hope all is well with you and your mom. Sending <<<positive vibes>>> your way! Check in soon!

Don't know about any workout today. I've had some pain since Friday which got worse through Saturday, probably from lifting and carrying heavy bags. I think maybe the HIIT on Thursday wasn't exactly the best idea. So frustrating....

Off for more java, but will bbl~

Good Sunday morning ladies,

I'm sitting here after watching Meet the Press with a quiet household. Good thing the GDS's are sleeping as DIL was a bit tired last night and DS had a friend coming to town late last night so he went out for a bit around 11:30 PM or so. And, best of all, I'm here catching up early for me ! :D

I always enjoy seeing family and friends and it's been a long time since I cooked DS a "BDay dinner" so it was nice. DGS1 started eating with forks so that was fun to watch him - he had only eaten chips at another Bday party all day so DIL was glad to see him eat potatos and chicken ! :p The littlest guy is looking so much like older brother already. DS thinks people will view them as twins - and it might be possible as younger bro is gaining weight very quickly while older bro is skinny as a twig. We will see . . .

Wendy - great job on the steps yday. I didn't track mine as I was standing in the kitchen loads yesterday ! Knew I wouldn't get mine in at all. Rest day in all ways ! :rolleyes: I didn't add my name to the Fitbit let me know list because I'll probably cave before then also. Sure hope they come out the end of July. It's only just over a month anyway. Hope your walk was enjoyable even though the weather isn't. Perhaps a high # of steps will put that smile on your face. Know about DH's and shopping - I won't take mine with me cuz it takes at least an extra hour as he looks at things he will never buy anyway ! :confused:

Lori - Sure hope the sun comes out for your run. Sounds like between you and DH that DS will have quite a day full of running around with Mom & Dad. Hopefully he takes a nice long nap for you somewhere in there !

Jen - Glad you all had a great time on your trip. We have had a really nice bed where we stayed a month ago and it is so wonderful to have all the fluff and comfort around, huh? If you don't mind me asking, how long have you and DSO been together? Know where you are at with the aches and pains lately - yesterday my back hurt on one side, now today it is the other? Wonder if I overcompensated somehow? :confused: Sure is a bummer when you really want to workout and can't ! And worse when you don't understand what you did to make things hurt! :mad: Time and patience I guess are the answers. Hope you get your steps in today ! ;)

Diana - well yesterday was pretty successful for you from hair to the dress to a visit with MIL and the wedding festivities. Good deal ! Hope you are feeling better to enjoy today and start the week off better than last week !

Probably BBL - enjoy a nice day ladies !
 
Took DS for about a 30 minute walk this morning and just finished 4DS shoulder/core/calf work + circuits 1,3,5 and 7 from BFBM about 5 minutes ago! Great work out!

My steps are up there today alreay. I should surpass 10k easily! :D

BBL with personals!
 
Hey Girls,

Back from my run:) Now I am getting ready to go to work again:mad: I think I am getting use to being needed 24 hrs a day with that place. It will be nice when things return to normal though!:)

Wendy** Enjoy your walk. The weather is the same here but the sun came out when I got home.:rolleyes:
**Edited** to say...you are back from your walk...my bad LOL Good workout!

Jacque** Sounds like you enjoyed your evening! I just gave DS his lunch...with a fork but he didn't use it. He decided to use his fingers to dip everything in ketchup...what a mess. He had ketchup near his eyes and all over his face.They grow up to fast. Although...I can't wait for this one to get alittle older so he stops screaming! LOL

Jen** Heavy bags? Does that mean you did lots of shopping? Im not doing any shopping this weekend if I go away. I did to much when I was in FL and half of the stuff still as tags on it. It may get wrapped for someone for Christmas yet~;)

Im sitting here listening to DD say she wishes she was black. "Why could Micheal Jackson go white but I can't go black"? Thats what she as been asking all weekend...to funny! For one, I don't know if its possible and the other reason...I dont' think she as Micheal Jacksons money. God help her if she wants to look like him! LOL
I remmeber wanting to change my hair from curly to straight....but Ive never thought about changing the color of my skin.

Uh, Lori? Just cause they get older does NOT mean that they necessarily stop screaming! :eek: Mine is 4 and STILL has temper tantrums. He had a MAJOR one just last night. :rolleyes:

Sorry to burst your bubble!:p
 
Hi ladies,

Well I tried to post earlier but when I hit the submit button I ended up with a big ole IE error. At any rate, I enjoyed a quiet morning and just finished KPC. I've decided to go with FF Get Ready for Summer rotation (June 09). I may change it up a bit but will be following it for the most part.

My nephew married a mormon girl and the actual wedding was Friday night. Non-members are not allowed so my brother didn't even actually witness the actual ceremony. The ring ceremony was very nice. They had a midieval theme and the bridesmaids and groomsmen were all dressed in garb. Different, but kind of cool. Their wedding cake was a big castle cake, I'll post pictures once I find a new host.

Wendy-I signed up for the email notification when the fitbit becomes available. I haven't given up on the GWF but do not want to pay the monthly website fee. Sounds like you had a nice walk with Joey and a great workout to boot!

Jen-DH is planning a trip to vegas with his cousin and asked if I wanted to go. I don't really care for Vegas, gambling, dirty streets etc. I'm more of a site see'er, adventure seeker kinda gal. If DH's cousin's wife is going than I will consider it, otherwise I would just as soon stay home. Wow, I really sound like buzz kill.

Lori-Sounds like you had a nice run today. The little ones sure do grow up fast. I was fortunate, my kids never had temper tantrums. Did your DH come home with any trees for the yard?

Jacque-I enjoyed a nice quiet morning too. My boys look a lot alike too. Especially the middle and youngest. One time DH, MDS and myself were in the gym prior to Jerod's basketball game. Jerod's coach came over and said to Zach, "why aren't you in uniform". Zach said, "I'm not on your team" The coach said-"what do you mean ...you're not on my team". My little brother's on your team". Mind you Zach is 6 years older than Jerod. We all had a good laugh.

Laura-hope everything is okay with your mom.

Have a great rest of the weekend ladies.
