I have been meaning to just post my thoughts about how we are doing and what has been going on but never seem to find the alone time to sit and type. Well the kids are both still asleep so I figured I should better take advantage...
Tyler is doing really good. He has been fishing a lot and this weekend he is taking us all camping on a lake. So he is a happy boy! He continues to workout all the time. Wish I had is working out OCD! Work is going for him. They changed computer systems a few months ago and are still having problems. It is the first time since he has worked for Cardinal that I have heard him say he is stressed. It takes a lot to stress him out so I hope they figure out all the problems!
Me well I haven't had a Pepsi in 2 weeks! Something triggered in my head and I have been motivated to lose some more of this baby weight. I have been writing down everything that I eat, walking/running, and not having soda or candy! So far I have lost 4 lbs and 6.5 inches. I hope it continues! I need to be able to wear more of my clothes before we take our trip to CO/AZ! I am doing pretty good on the not getting enough sleep at night. Not sure how I am managing to go with no naps but that is the best time for me to get stuff done. Plus the kids rarely take a nap at the same time. That would be way to nice! I feel like we are starting to get the hang of things. Now if I can figure out how to manage my 2 year old and not care when people say stupid things or look at me funny when she is running through the store and hiding from me. I worry to much about what people are thinking. It stresses me out that she doesn't listen and is so high spirited!
So on to Ronnee... She is Ronnee! She has a mind of her own and is not afraid to tell you or anyone else if she doesn't want to wear/do/go somewhere. We are currently working on finding her a swimsuit that she will wear. She would rather go nude then wear a swimsuit. The other day I was watering my flowers and I turned around and she was sitting butt naked on top of the dog. SICK! And we were at the neighbors house playing in the pool and she was trying to swim naked. Finally convinced her to wear shorts. But when the shorts got wet she took them off and played in the sand naked. Sand where sand should not go! But I found her a cute suit with a giraffe on it and it is a shirt with some shorts, so lets hope this weekend when we go swimming while camping I can get her to wear it! She is still obsessed with horses and always has one in her hand and watching them on the TV. Secretariat is a favorite and the movie Spirit. I am grateful for that she can express herself but man does it make things challenging most days. She is a crack up and so gosh darn cute that I think we might survive a while. But man am I not looking forward to Teenagehood with this little spit-fire!
Cutler is a pretty good boy. He has been sleeping better at night but only taking cat naps during the day so he gets pretty cranky because he is so tired. He is on strike and only wants to sleep in my arms but even then he only takes a small nap. So I will keep putting him in his bed to sleep and hope that he starts sleeping longer. He loves to be swaddled. At night I swaddle him and lay him in his bed and he passes out! So nice. Ronnee would never do that and will still never do that. This morning he was making alot of noise in his bed so I figured he wanted to nurse so I went and picked him up and started to nurse him. Well he nursed until I had a let down and then let the milk go all over me and his face, made a huge grunt, passed some gas, smiled at me and then went back to sleep. So glad I woke up for that! He moves so much and is trying to roll himself over. I thought I would get a kid that would want to be lazy but nope I think he is trying to keep up with his sis already!
Well I hear one of the kids so now my day is starting. Glad I ate my breakfast and got to blog in peace!

Speaking of naked kids...brody loves peeing outside. Pretty sure several high school kids have driven by on their lunch break and seen his bare butt. What can you do, but laugh?
