Bummed I guess...

Well today is kind of a bummer of a Friday... sometimes with the new work schedule for Ben it is just another day that we are in the house. That will change once Spring comes! (or once we get the Camaro fixed :)) It isn't too bad though. Adalai has yet another ear infection and I just don't know how she even gets them! I thought the first one was just kind of a fluke since she had that croup, but nope I guess she will just be one of those types of babies! She has had two already! She doesn't seem sick or in pain, so we just picked up the antibiotic, and she will be all better soon I hope!
I am kind of sad that the holidays are over actually. I got really used to having my husband around during the day and stuff, it was SOOOO Nice!
The big boy bed thing isn't working too well yet, but I guess I will have to give it some time. He went to bed wonderfully last night, but woke up at about 4am, and then woke Adalai up, next thing I knew, I was laying her down to go back to sleep at 6:15am, the EXACT time I needed to get ready for Sophie... Oh well, it is naptime now, so I am going to rest!
Have a great day!

Yeah 2008!

The beginning of the year is always kind of cool for me... not that you get to start fresh or anything, but making some new goals, I feel is healthy. I know that most resolutions always only last a couple weeks, but I think being able to get a goal in mind is good. I have a friend who told me about the Sonoma diet to kind of kick the last few pounds that are hanging on from when I had the baby. It is pretty strict, but I think that I may do a type of variation on that diet. I am working also on not drinking so much sugary stuff, and not eating so much sugar. I have made little steps to kind of rid myself of that such as not adding so much sugar to coffee in the morning, and I switched to Coke Zero. I have always HATED the thought of diet soda because I have always heard horrible things about aspartame (fake sugar). So I don't know if I am so keen on drinking that a lot. I have a goal in mind to be more active in the time that I have at home w/ working out in the evening after the kids bedtime, so that is another thing. Nothing too huge and nothing too uncommon for a new years resolution.
We had a great day at Grams house. She had yummmmy food as always, ribs and chicken, and cole slaw, and non sonoma diet related stuff ;) We played games as a family and Kir and I played a round of Yatzee too which I love. So tpmogjt we are going to chill out at home and watch Pirates and play Guitar Hero...
