My week at a glance!

So remember all that stuff I was talking about. Well here comes SOME of it! To begin with I have started a nutrition plan. We have a super nice girl in our ward (church) who has gotten her undergrad, and masters in Nutrition. You know those people you go and pay to help you eat better and lose weight or at least be at your healthy weight? She just had her second baby and decided to start an enrichment class at church for all the women who wanted to join and get healthy. So she got a plan going for each individual lady. We weighed and measured ourselves, and then she explained how the servings for each day were broken down. The hardest part for me has been the lack of chocolate. So, to keep from waking up one night with my face in the freezer having half eaten a carton of ice cream. I am letting myself indulge A LITTLE on the weekends. I am keeping my eye on the prize! But I really have enjoyed the new foods. They aren't really new I am just eating a more well balaced diet! Things I should be eating! Then, I am also hitting the gym, three days a week and working out at home the other days I don't get in. Why don't I make it everyday you ask? Because I am helping a great friend out with her little baby. Two days a week I watch a cute, and I mean cute, baby boy named Zach! We just love him. His mom commutes into Huntsville two days a week and on those days she brings him here while she works.

What else, have I been up to? Oh, you know just volunteering to be a chairperson for the Fall Festival. Am I nuts? Why, yes, yes I am! But I have to admit it is so much fun, and I am really excited about the whole event! There are going to be a TON of things for the kids to do and it's only $10 for the armbands (which is what we are selling instead of tickets to get in) in advance. At the door it will be $12. But I am in charge of the 5th grade hall that has things like the cake walk and the fear factor room, etc. It will be fun! I just have to get all the rooms staffed with parents for different shift times! That is the hard part! Moving on!

Danny, has been busy at work, traveling and volunteering his services at church. Oh, and he is an official member of the PTA. He is off with the Missionaries now and is helping a new family move into their house on Saturday. He also helps Isaak with his homework, and plays with all the boys when he gets home from work! It's a huge help!

The boys have just been busy with school. The just had their church program so that is over for a year. But Brett has a Birtday coming up and he loves every super hero ever thought of. He doesn't choose favorites. So my solution is to get a plane cake, or cupcakes and put inexpensive action figures on the cake myself! That way he can have the toys too! He also loves food so he told me the other day that he wants that thing that makes and decorates cupcakes! I just have to convince his dad...might not happen! Maybe? Jack, is a great sport running around with me while I do all my busy mom stuff during the day. He loves playing in the daycare while I work out and if finally starting to use some words instead of pointing.

So that's about all in this neck of the woods. We are busy and rushing but doing really well. I hit my pillow each night hard and have to drag myself off of it each morning but it's worth it.

Alive and tired!

Hello, to everyone! School has started and I have not come up for air yet! I have loved it though. Being a mom with two in school and one becoming more and more independant suits me! I plan to be getting baby fixes through my sisters from this point on. There is a lot going on and much to explain and I am getting all the pix to go with it so bare with me and I will get the official post up soon! So until then you can usually find me on Facebook, breifly!
