Summer Fun!

Here's a look at a few things we did around the house during the summer months. 

Dawson as "Peter Pan."

Cole dressed as a ...um, I'm not sure.

Here are all 3 boys together, with Caiden dressed as someone from Star Wars.

The big boys built boats to see if they would float.

Trying them out!

Success!  Its amazing what some tape and a paper plate will do!

Success #2...before Cole jumps in and stirs everything up!
Ah...summer fun!

Weekly Update

Well, last week was a good week in the weight loss department. On Saturday, I was 2.6 pounds lighter than last week...yeah! I was really focused on drinking water last week and trying to log all of my points. Its hard but if you stick to it and stay focused, it sure pays off. I'm hoping for another great week.

One of the gals that keeps me accountable in the weight loss department lost over 5 pounds last week. Way to go, Lesley! Talk about determination and focus. You really inspired and encouraged me. Hang in there gals!

Good Ol' H20

I did a fitness orientation at our local YMCA to help get me acquainted with some of the equipment and also to get me motivated to branch out in my exercise routine. In talking with the trainer, he told me that I needed to drink 6-7 20 ounce bottles of water a day. WOW! I knew I needed to drink water but it never occured to me that I needed to drink that much. I'm not sure why it hadn't clicked until today. I have been drinking about 2 of those bottles a day. I know, water is so good for you. It helps our bodies work so much better. So, in addition to exercising this week, I'm going to just drink the good ol' h20. This is a reminder to you to join me!
