I am so behind on my blog I'll never get caught up! So let's just see where this leads:
KINSEY:
What's new with Miss Kinsey? We officially have two teeth! And in the process of getting more, which I do not like :( not only does she feel bad but no one gets any sleep for about two days, which can really wear you down, running on auto-pilot and walking around like a zombie is not that attractive! She's eating solids, for the most part, so far we like cereal, carrots, and sweet potatoes, she dislikes peas with a passion! I have tried them at least 3 times and she gags everytime, I don't blame her! I am surprised she liked sweet potatoes, I figured she would like carrots, my mom said when I was little I would eat carrots until the tip of my nose turned orange! I have recently purchased green beans, apples and pears, so we'll try those and see what she thinks. She can ALMOST sit up by herself, she sits there but if she tries to turn to get a toy she topples over, seems we are still a bit top heavy! She is trying to crawl also, she gets up on all fours and rocks back and forth, then when she tries to take off she falls over and gets mad, quick! She can go from a crawling position to a sitting position in no time flat, so that has to say something! She has learned that if she put her arms out, SOMEONE will pick her up, so that has become her new favorite thing to do, along with slapping, play slapping mind you, she slaps everything! Her exersaucer, me, daddy, the tables at restaurants; whatever! She's growing up so fast!
Daddy and Me:
So with Kinsey taken care of; what's new with the hubby and me? Nothing really, believe it or not! We are still at my parents, which hopefully for Valentine's Day my present will be MOVING! I am going to end up in the crazy house before this is all over with, I love my parents but my god I am going CRAZY! We have looked at 3 houses and all 3 of them have not come through, I am starting to become VERY discouraged! Tom is working at the Electric Cowboy part-time to save up some money so we can move WHEN the time comes, (WHICH I HOPE IS SOON!) he was only suppose to work Friday and Saturday nights, now it has turned into Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, which stinks! Monday night we put the baby to bed, left her with my mom and went to Sonic just to spend some time together! How sad is that? All we do is work, take care of Kinsey, and pay bills, welcome to marriage and kids! I hate being an adult somedays, Kinsey doesn't know how easy she has it! I am glad to have my parents right now, because I usually do everything for Kinsey by myself, and my mom is a HUGE help, she gets the baby to bed every night so I can get a shower or do laundry or do whatever I need to do. Because if it was just me doing it, by the time I got her to bed, I got a shower and did some laundry it would be midnight or later before I got to go to bed. So most nights I am glad I am living there!
Me losing weight:
Well my New Year's Resolution to lose some weight is suprisingly going well! I have joined a gym, I am TRYING to eat right (and do a pretty good job of it if you ask me), and I just keep telling myself it will all pay off! I joined the gym last Friday and I went Sunday and Monday night, I didn't go last night, it was 19 degrees at 7:30! Plus my knees and butt were so SORE from my workout on Monday night I decided I better take it easy, I think I need to pace myself! I am thinking about taking Zumba classes, they start next week, but I am still not 100% sure I want to, Zumba is really intense and I am just starting, again PACE MYSELF! I am not sure if I have lost any weight as of yet, I weighed myself Friday when I signed up and I weighed 170, which is better than I thought! I want to get down to 150 which would be my 20 pound goal, I want to lose two or three pants sizes, I am 12 now and I want to get down to a 10 or an 8 so I actually don't have that far to go, but I have to work for it and I am totally prepared to do that!
Any other news?:
I don't think I have anything else to report, Kinsey is staying with her Aunt Renee this week, I got a call at work Friday morning from my sitters daughter, long story short, Miss Laverne went to go check on her husband Bode, I am assuming and he had passed away, they think he had a heart attack, it is so sad! He was a sweetheart and he was crazy about the kids Miss Laverne watched, he was really crazy about Kinsey! He called her "Smiley" because she is always smiling, I will really miss seeing him when I go get Kinsey in the afternoons, I am glad Miss Laverne has her daycare business and those kids, she's really going to need them over the next few months!
Maybe I won't wait a whole month before I update my blog again!

Sounds Great, Amanda! I hope you and Tom close on a great house, soon. Craig and I have looked at 5 houses and are still in our rent house. I know it can be discouraging, but it all happens for a reason!
ReplyDeleteSounds like your diet and exercise routine are really going to work for you and also help you stay a little sane while your life is a little crazy right now. But just think: In ten years, or at our first high school reuinion, you'll be able to talk about these days laughing your butt off and lookin' fine!
