How is it MY fault?

 

[Steffy]

Well I've had a relaxing day. The kids are all on overnights with friends. We had a house full last night and my DD and I just finished going through the trash finding our forks. (we had the disposible forks that look real, and when we ran out, I guess the people didn't look to see the fork was real and out they went!!)

Baby Noah Daniel is here!

He arrived at 1:35pm, weighing 8lb 8 oz and measuring 21 inches long! He and Amy are resting and recovering and will hopefully go home tomorrow afternoon. Alyssa and Matthew visited this afternoon and are very excited about their new baby brother!

Welcome baby Noah!!!!

Amy is still at the hospital. Thank you all for the kind wishes and congratulations. Amy & Noah are having some alone time this evening. We expect them to be home tomorrow. Thought you would enjoy a sneak peek at what I am sure will be many more pictures to come ...

Thanks for the pictures. What a beautiful family & new baby boy!

Glynis, how ya feeling?

Thanks for all the support about my weight loss. My kids have decided to add a little incentive...

I do know my kids love me. We are in a 13 week challenge to lose weight by the time my DDil wants to hire a photographer for family pictures.

She decided to really sweeten the pot. If I win, the kids will take to me to California Grill in March, no whining allowed, their treat. They will hire Fairy Godmother to come and watch the kids. If I lose, ***I*** am the Fairy Godmother and get to watch the kids after they have amped them up on sugar and cafenine. They will go to the dining place of their choice.

And then the side bet. The child who loses the least has to accompany me on one of my "special days" no whining. They have to wear the matching t-shirt, lighted Mickey ears hats, watch teh parades, the shows and see the fireworks. Hopefully a late night. I showed my son the Pirate and Princess party. He said he was going to make Nicole Richie look like she needed liposuction.

And so it's on!! We are going to use the starting weight last week from the Wii. All of our little bloated Miis.

The shirt is going to say Making magical memories with my Mom....

I love this side bet. I agree with Elizabeth though. This wouldn't give me any incentive whatsoever to lose weight. I mean what could be better than wearing matching tshirts, lighted Mickey ear hats, watching parades, and shows with Stephanie.

To thoes who like numbers, check out my post count.

Im so excited now! after i got the credit with airtran, i called to see if i could apply my credit towards the 75.00 changing fee and get on an earlier flight that would land the same time as my cousins. So when i called, the flight i wanted to switch to was 20.00 cheaper, so it was only 55.00 to change--and i had a 57.00 credit! I ended up paying 10.00 to choose my seats. I was planning on paying 25.00 at the airport on saturday to switch flights so i ended up saving money--i am thrilled and will land 5 minutes after my cousin!!!
So thanks for talkaign about the airfare lately--it made me keep checking!

Nope. Deadliest Catch.
I need to go get groceries.

Vicki - Is that really all a 6K is in miles? I know a 5K is just over 3. I thought a 6K would be more. Anyway, sounds like you did well!

Glynis - No clue on the best deal for a Wii Fit. Sorry! I'll think blue thoughts for your Peanut!

3.7 miles is the 6K. 3.1 for a 5K

I think I have a sinus infection. I've had a headache for two days which is VERY unusual for me. I finally realized this morning it is sinus related. I went to bend over and almost fainted. I took some benedryl and now can't keep my eyes open (even though I took a 2 hour nap from noon-2).

Chuck & I went to my mom's this week-end. She brought my niece (TK) and nephew (BT) up for the Black Bear Run. My favorite aunt came with her as well. It was a nice visit. The kids and I ran/walked the race on Friday morning. All but Chuck went to the parade and little fair in town in the afternoon. We did some geocaching on Saturday. Otherwise, we just hung out at mom's. It was a nice week-end.

Heidi--cool post count!

I have to share this with you. While walking the 6K on Friday, a man walked up behind me and the lady I was walking with when we had about 1K left. I turned around and it was my high school crush. He was the most popular guy in the school. He was a fantastic athlete. He finished the race with us.

He recently had a hip replacement. He asked if I had any problems and I told him no. We are both surprised at that. Mind you, he was the best athlete to graduate from my high school for many years ahead of us and many behind us. We both beat our bodies in sports. We pushed harder than anyone else (we weren't just natural athletes).

I can't imagine what anyone thought watching the end of the race that knew the two of us. The two best athletes of our decade, "Walked" across the finish line. He and I were very competitive in sports. Us walking at all is funny to think about - let alone not making that last kick to improve our time.

Mom let BT take the picture of me crossing the finish line. I'm very bummed because it didn't take so I have no picture of walking across the line with Roddy Joe.

Glynis, how ya feeling?

Pretty good! I think the morning sickness is winding down. Now, I'm just tired all the time, and my back aches a lot. Other than that, I'm doing well.

I'm going through my next batch of London pictures, trying to remember everything we did that day so I can do the next installment of my trip report. Wish me luck!

Jacob is hooked on this, now! His cub scout troop went geocaching a couple of weeks ago, and he's bugging me to keep going.

I'm going to check out geocaching sites around where we'll be camping this coming week. That ought to be some fun!

It is lots of fun and become very addicting (then again it seems that everything I get involved in becomes an addiction for me)! I had fun introducing my aunt, mom, BT & TK to it this week-end. I introduced my SIL to it two week-ends ago.

I know--i loved seeing his reaction!!
Federer was never my favorite--because i loved andy roddick and federer always beat him! so i was rooting for nadal!

Eww, see I don't like Roddick at all. He's a big fat jerk IRL, I never cared for him. My good friend from high school is still pretty enamored with him, though

 

[tink2020]

Good for you. I wanted to check into this as well. It sounded perfect. I don't know how I'm going to handle not going to Disney until March.

Oh, hush you! It will have been a year and a half since we've been when we go in March!
