Repeat.

This day so far has been a bunch of repeats. Let's start with this morning. Woke up to that lovely dirty diaper smell only to go over to the crib and see J. with is diaper off and baby shit everywhere. How he took off his pj's during the night really baffled me, granted he was in a gown which makes it easier I would say but still. So it was a rushed morning to get him in the shower with daddy and then run down to the basement to put the sheets and crib bumper into the washer.

A. started eating more carpet today. Threw up a few times while I was trying to get it out of his mouth. Both the boys have colds again so that resulted in me wiping their noes and pulling boogers out of hair.

They have been very happy though and that's what really counts! They have yet to sleep though a whole night again but only waking up once is better than before.  They love the new toys I got them, mainly the Fisher Price lion play stand thing. It has this toy that makes a really loud noise and when A. first heard it he was so excited he was screaming! It was super cute.

I have a a rough past couple of days... My iPhone hit the shits and stopped working. I have an appointment today at the Apple store to get it fixed or get a new phone. My main worry is that I wasn't able to back my phone up and synch it through iTunes so I am worried that I will lose all my pictures and videos of the boys. My weight is going well, down 6.4 pounds in 2 weeks which is pretty good! My mother in law is coming in a few weeks so I am hoping to get out a but more while she is here for workouts.

Well rested.

Last night was the first night ever my boys slept the ENTIRE night. They went to be at 8:30pm and woke up at 6am for a feeding then we back to bed till 8am. I feel sooooooooooooooooooooo refreshed, awake, and motivated this morning. This is my first full nights sleep in over 8 months. The boys have been good. J. is a little cranky today, but that could be cause A. is clawing off his face while climbing on top of him and also stealing his toys in the process. They are more active than before, pulling up on everything and broke their $80 floor jungle gym last night while both standing and holding it so I ordered two new toys last night for them. I hope they like them cause combined it was close to $100. They are finally over their colds/coughs which is fantastic, I was so over wiping their noes and pulling boogers out of their hair. J. face planted into the bookshelf and busted his nose on Wednesday and it was a rough rest of the day for him.

As for me, things are going well. I have lost 2 pounds since Monday without working out! I start working out this weekend, joined a gym and have signed up with a personal trainer. I am hoping to be down to 145 pounds by the time I go Black Friday shopping. I am at 168.2 pounds currently.

Myself plus dieting equals epic fail...

So... You know how I was supposed to start my diet and new workout this last weekend... Well it didn't happen. I decided to eat everything unhealthy in my home this last week so I could start fresh without any garbage food. Unfortunately this ended in me gaining more weight. I was 169.9 when I weighed myself this morning. I am now bigger than a whale, I am a huge fucking whale. I thought maybe I was a beluga whale but now I feel more like a blue whale which I think is the biggest whale but I could be wrong. So I am going to the grocery store tomorrow in which I am going to stock up on rabbit food (peppers, lettuce, carrots, and so on) chicken, Special K, and low fat yogurt. Wish me luck... I am going to need it.

My child is a goat.

I have come to the conclusion that A. is a goat. He eats everything and I mean EVERYTHING! How he has come to this type of diet I have no clue. J. doesn't eat everything... Only real food. Today he decided to eat carpet fibers from the rug in the play area, which his also did yesterday twice. The best part is watching him hack it up and cleaning up the vomit and carpet fibers afterward. He likes to eat cardboard, books, paper, and my favorite, the carpet. We went out to dinner the other night and thought we would give him a coaster to play with and about 2 minutes later half of it was gone. I guess I really need to start watching him.

Oh my boys...

It's been a rough couple of days with the boys. Not sleeping well, eating ALL the time (they must be going through a growth spurt) and constantly getting stuck. They have started doing this thing where they pull themselves up to their knees on the gate and look at me and sob... They look so pathetic! I love it though.. It makes me go in their play area and lay down on the floor and let them crawl all over me. I have a feeling they will be walking by the time I go to my parents for Christmas. J. can pull himself completely up and can start to move around the gate, A. can pull himself up but is still a little wobbly. He gets up with this big smile and then he starts to get a bit unstable and gets the worried/scared look on his face then falls down and starts to cry. They have been fight more, and get pissed whenever the other one takes the toy. They have such great littler personalities and I love watching them interact with each other.

Black Friday versus the scale...

Yes... I am already thinking about Black Friday, I have been for a few weeks now (I have a bit of a shopping addiction, it might be a problem). I look forward to this shopping event mainly because of the savings, it's huge what you can save. I went 2 years ago and for $175 I got a beach bag, large cosmetic case, medium cosmetic case, small handbag, and wallet from Kate Spade, granted I had to wait two and half in line to check out but it was worth it. The outlet mall in Leesburg Virgina is where I will be at Thanksgiving night at 10pm when the start of the stores open it's doors. Here's my dilemma... The number on the scale. I just weighed myself, which was stupid since it's 6:15pm. Your supposed to weigh when you wake up, naked and had gone pee. Let's just say I'm not what I want to be at and that I am a fucking whale. I am currently 166 pounds, 31 pounds heavier then my pre-pregnancy weight of 135 pounds.

I look forward to this shopping event so I can shop for myself but I refuse to buy anything this heavy. I hope to be at 140 pounds by Thanksgiving. Let's hope I am keep up the workouts and healthy eating habits. I will keep you all updated on the weight lose and how things are going!

babies and shoes.

I have been putting the boys in shoes lately, fall is here (finally) and it's a bit chilly out. I put these little slippers on that Grandma got the boys. As of now, they each have one on... Oh, wait... A. just took his other one off so now just J. has one on. They have cold feet but yet ALWAYS pull off their shoes and socks. It agitates me. I buy these cute (and expensive) shoes and socks only to have them pull them off their feet and each others feet. I just don't get it. Although I love the fact that J. is crawling around with one slipper on, it's super cute.
