Children

I usually go to weight watchers Wednesday mornings. Well, since I'm back to work now, I can't go. I would hate to give it up right now. I've come so far and have 20 more pounds to go. There is a WW class near the office during lunch time so I may have to just go there.

I was talking to DH about it and he said maybe I can do it on my own now. I have lost 30 pounds - but can I have the willpower and strength to do it alone. I tend to pig out every now & then but the WW keeps ...

Today we went to see another daycare for the kids. It is brand new and is about 1 mile from our house. It's an old building (100 yrs old) but it is GORGEOUS! It was just completely renovated... The Owner was very nice - she has been running daycare centers since 1998. This place is very organized, structured and CLEAN!

We took the kids with us of course and they immediately started to play. The owner showed us all around the building. She has different areas set up for the ...

Well, at least it feels that way to me. I go from a SAHM to a working Mom in a blink of an eye. I'm thrilled to go back to work and to make money - actually the most money I have ever made in my life! But on top of searching for daycares, Nicholas therapy twice a week, house work, and now getting a cold, I feel overwhelmed. I know this will all fall into place but in the meantime it's a lot on my plate. DH has been watching the kids for me once he gets home from his morning shift. Today he'll ...

Nicholas has his speech therapy tomorrow. I'm excited for him to get started. He said about 3 new words over this past weekend. "Football, touchdown and Some"...LOL Yes, his Daddy has been working on the football and touchdown words with him. Now they both raise their arms and scream TOUCHDOWN at the same time. Too cute He said "some" when I was eating my cereal because he wanted "some". He now loves cereal but ONLY if it's in my bowl LOL I ...

This is just about driving me crazy! Nicholas has not been eating his usual foods in at least a month. It's like the little man decided to go on strike! He will eat PB&J like it's going out of style but come on, the guy has to eat more then that. He pushes his food away if it's not what he wants to eat or keeps saying "No, No, No".

I made hot dogs and mac-n-cheese for lunch today. Noelle gobbled it all up and he wouldn't touch any of it. I was not budging with ...

I gained .4lbs That's not too bad after eating like a pig this past week...lol

Total: 30 lbs.

Hoping I can get off a pound or two by next week. Now the Holidays are over I can get back on track.

It's official. My parents have asked me to go back to work at their company. My Mom called me this morning to tell me that they fired the lady they have had working there for 7 years I had no idea that they were even thinking of getting rid of her. She became a close friend to our family and I worked with her for 5 years before I left to have the kids and be a SAHM. Needless to say, I was very shocked to hear they got rid of her but she had not been showing up, calling out all the time and ...

Why, why, why do I even go there? I hate going over there!!! They should just come to us from now on.

We didn't see my in-laws yesterday for Christmas so we went tonight. My SIL, her husband and her two girls arrived tonight from Boston. We went over after the twins nap. Actually we had to wake them up to go They were warm and cozy in their cribs and we had to get them changed to head over to a horrible night!

My MIL means well, she really does, but ...

He got me a necklace from the Red Envelope. Its a silver pea in a pod to represent my twins. The peas are fresh water pearls. It's so cute and I absolutely love it! It's small but elegant looking. It's perfect I was very surprised that he chose something like that. He does usually get me nice gifts but I have been asking for something that would be to show I have 2 children. Like a Mothers Ring or a Mother holding 2 babies or maybe their names engraved or whatever. I have been buying ...

Today was awesome! It was so much fun to see the kids open up gifts and play and play and play. They got soooooooooooooooo many nice toys, clothes, books, puzzles, dolls, cars and so on. But now I'm feeling very overwhelmed of what to do with it all. Our living room is the kids play area and it's being over run with toys now. I know I have to pack away toys they rarely play with but I don't even have the room for them. I'm thinking of giving them to charity. That way I can make room for all ...
