Fun Times

We are planning to spend some of the day today with Mel and her kids. Hopefully it will be nice enough for us to go to a park or take a walk or something fun. The kids and I definitely need to get out of the house. Reece is so clingy when were at home, I'm not sure why, but he doesn't want to entertain himself. He wants me to play with him constantly or hold him and, Heaven Forbid, I try to sit down at the computer because somehow he knows and his whole world falls apart. He will crawl into the doorway of the kitchen and sit on his knees and scream until I come get him. Hopefully getting out of the house will help with some of Sierra's wiggles too.

Just a quick side question: When I upload pictures to blogger why do they have to place them above the writing I've just done. I have to plan out what I'm going to say so I can get the pics on first otherwise the pictures come before the story and I like them to follow. I've tried copying/pasting and that doesn't seem to work either. Is there any way for me to write and then add pictures without them being above what I just wrote?

In case you can't tell this obviously just happened when I tried to add the pic of Reece at my feet and It really irritates me.HELP!

Quick Update

I did it again. I actually worked out tonight. I had said I was only going to work out every other day, but I just felt like doing it tonight, can you believe that, I actually felt like exercising. That's so weird, but it makes me feel good to work out. It was really hard tonight, my legs felt dead when I got off of the elliptical, but it felt awesome. Thanks for all of the encouragement, it really is helping me a lot. Here are some pics of the kids to keep you all coming back to my blog, I know that's why you stop by, HAHAHA!

Saturday morning, watching cartoons and eating Eggo waffles straight from the freezer.

Squeaky clean after a bath.

He is always doing this curios face, I think I captured it perfectly. He looks around things with his head tilted and an inquisitive look on his face.

What a beauty. Enough said.

Day 3, Workout

I just finished my second workout, third day. I skipped yesterday, I think I'll start out doing every other day and then add in a day each week until I'm working out 5 or 6 times each week. I also want to start doing active things with the kids. Dave and I plan on getting bikes soon so We'll be able to go on rides as a family. I think that'll help a lot. I have a hard time working out with the kids around because as soon as I get interrupted I lose my focus and quit. I have to be able to go from start to finish.Taking the kids on bike rides will be extra work too since I'll have to pull them behind in a trailer.
Gotta go watch ANTM.

Cry Baby

I was going to sit and post something, I had no idea what, but now I'm listening to a major cry baby and can't concentrate on anything. If your wondering it's not Reece.:)

Ugh

I wish I had something interesting to blog about, but nothing is coming to me. We haven't been having a very exciting life lately. Melanie's trying to encourage me to join in her weight loss goal thingy, but it's so hard for me to commit to something like that. I don't know why I have a hard time with it, I obviously have some weight to lose, but I can't seem to get motivated. I have decided to start working out more, I hate sweating for some reason so this is really hard for me. I worked out on our elliptical machine yesterday for half an hour, it kicked my butt, but I had Sierra there supporting me the whole way, she kept saying "good job Mommy" it was really sweet. It was a good enough workout that I was sweating and had to shower immediately to get rid of the icky feeling of being sweaty. I was proud of myself for going so long, I usually give up in about 5 minutes, hopefully I can keep going with it. I might post some stats about myself once I feel a little more confident about my commitment to working out and getting healthier. We'll see.

By Request

After seeing the first Bear walk video of Reece my best friend, Shannon, insisted I put the other ones up for everyone to see. He just looks so adorable, in my opinion.

Bear Walk

Reece has been doing the cutest walk lately. I see a lot of babies doing this Mowgli, from The Jungle Book, walk, but the way Reece does it is so adorable. He seems so mechanical. I got a few different videos of it and I cant remember which one i liked best so I might post another one too.
