mwhip , I did a challenge at my gym this summer and that kind of kicked off my weight loss. During the 6 weeks we had to send a sheet in weekly with our measurements, weight, if we'd cheated that week, what our goals/challenges were, ect. It sounds cheesy, but it was SO helpful. It was a good reminder and a good motivator knowing that I had to send that sheet in. Helped to keep me accountable. Just wanted to throw that out there, thought it may work for you if you have someone who you could send it to that would help motivate you and keep you on track. You could even sent it to me or N13 I could do something like that with the girls at work. One of them is training for a half marathon, so she's the one who got me to go yesterday. Do you have a copy of the sheet you could send me? Obviously take all your info out. I'm sure I could find something online that I could copy as well. Thanks for the idea!

Has anyone tried the dockAtot? Is it worth the money? Cher? kim22? I just had to google it. I'm old, I started this parenting thing 10 years ago when we didn't have fancy stuff. Is it only for bedsharing? I bought C a cute bassinet and he hates it. Sleeps In a hand me down rock n play.

I'd be up for an accountability group here mwhip. I need a little more time though. Every time I do more than walk I start bleeding again. I have my postpartum appointment next Wednesday. I'm down 25 pounds but still 23 away from where I was when I got pregnant.

My dad took DS1 to hockey last night because it was ending at 9:15 and I wasn't taking the others out that late. He came home early with a stomach ache. Luckily he woke up ok this morning. Boy ate 2 double cheeseburgers, nuggets, and fries at home the my dad brought him Dublin donuts on the way to practice. Do not need anymore sickness here.
Today I need to try to exchange baby clothes. C got exclusively newborn and 0-3 clothes as gifts.I have so much we never used and he's almost outgrown them. I have nothing in any other size so hopefully I can exchange them.

Healing your body is more important than your weight. You need to be healthy for your family, and yourself!

I the only one up. Schools are closed and I’m on a delay for work. I have two more hours until I go in. MH will be home with the boys today. It’s great that he usually has the same schedule as the schools so I don’t have to take off work if they’re off.
Not sure what’s on the menu tonight. My meal plan went out the window. One of MHs old interns is on his way home from Ohio and was supposed to only spend the night Tuesday, but because of the weather, was stuck here yesterday, too. I used up the rest of my meals so it’s either back to the store or takeout tonight. I’m leaning towards takeout.

Looks good @yummee! I actually want to cut my hair, but waiting until my bangs are a just a bit longer for a lob. I have too much length and not enough time to do it.

Cadence jumped into my bed at 2 this morning with a creepy "mama!", later she woke me up to tell me she was still in my bed, and then I guess she was dreaming and yelled out NOOOO! So not much sleep for me and I have a wonderful crick in my neck.
Got to work and one of the attorneys has already managed to irritate me. He said he had stuff in his office for me (boxes) so I told him I would see which runner showed up and send them up to get them. His response was, "Girls can't move boxes?" Huh? I said the runner was more than likely a girl, so yes, they could move boxes. He then said my comments were confusing. WTF? Not today, dude. The first thing he asked me this morning was how my vacation was. Uh, I wasn't on vacation, my kid's school was closed, she's 4, not like I can leave her home alone. Then he balked when I said yesterday was a personal day. "Gee, I wish I could take personal days." You do, you go hunting almost every weekend starting Fridays and ending Mondays so STFU!
Good thing it's Thursday, I don't know that I can last more than 2 days here this week.

Morning! Mil is going to pick up H in an hour and a half. S and I will run a few errands (including Sephora finally, and maybe to a phone store). I’m dropping S at my friend’s house at 12:30 and then we have “muffins with mom” at preschool from 1-2. It’s going to be a busy one! Early this morning around 5 S woke up crying, which is unusual. After trying to talk her into staying in her crib and going back to sleep I asked if she wanted to sleep with H. She said she did so I put her in the bed, left the room and fully expected her to come follow me shortly after that. She stayed in there and fell asleep! I’m shocked! guster thinking about your family. I hope you all have more time with your aunt. yummeecookee cute! Lots of good styles you can do with that length of hair.

Sunny41 there’s a lot of damages, broken train tracks, fallen trees etc. Our big bike was flipped over by the wind (that thing weighs like 200lbs 😳) and the rear wheel is broken and it’s going to cost about €100.- to fix, which sucks. Other than that I’m just glad we all got to and from school/work in one piece, thanks for asking!

wedding enjoy your day off at home! mwhip have you thought about doing dietbet or anything? I always found that I did better with my weight loss and accountability when there was money on the line! Lol. I won a “biggest loser” competition at work one year and got $250! guster I will be thinking of your family! Hope that your aunt still has lots of time with you all! Do you live close to her? Are you able to go see her at the hospital? yummeecookee love the hair and you pull off a turtleneck like a boss! If I wore one it would not go over so well. Also, love the red pants! You are my style icon!
