Been a little busy lately...

I am behind on the blog but that is a good thing. Life has taken over in a good way. Memory cards are full of everything but personal photos. The girls are doing well and enjoying the nice weather (except this raining week is going to suck!). We had a fun day over the weekend. I had two photo appointments and then we headed to toys r us for a doctor kit and a few outdoor toys for the girls. Dinner out was peaceful and then a trip to the mall for summer clothes for Syd.

Potty training Sawyer is going far better than I expected. She has a stubborn personality so I expected her to be a bit bullheaded about it. But she has proven me wrong!! M&M's are doing the trick! She is peeing and pooping like a champ. Accidents are a daily occurance, but that is to be expected since we just started. The other night while we were at the mall her diaper leaked. I didn't have diapers with me but I had undies and a change of clothes. She had to use a public potty once but remained dry for the rest of the outting and the long drive home!! So proud of her. Maybe this process will be quick, but I have learned with Sawyer, she will do this when she is ready. I plan not to push.

Jim has been fishing the last few days without success. Sydney really wants him to catch a fish so we can have it for dinner. I told him yesterday morning that if he didn't come home with one that afternoon, he would have to run to the market to pick up a filet so Syd wouldn't be dissapointed!

We are going to get Sydney's hair chopped off today. I figured the process to start growing out her bangs should start now...although, maybe the summer isn't the best idea as it will likely be in her face a lot! Oh well. It will grow back. She is very excited. As I write this, I hear her telling Sawyer about getting her hair cut.

13 lbs down and many many more to go. I started the process just a few weeks ago and the weight has flown off. I am happy to say that the diet changes really are enjoyable. I have always loved meat and veggies and fruit but my sweet tooth always destroyed my success before. Cutting out all sweets and bad carbs has been easier than I anticipated. I don't crave the sweets as much as I thought I would. I hope I can keep it up because I feel so much better.

Pictures will appear on the blog again after I clear the memory cards off. I need to do lots of backing up of files so maybe I will post some more baby/infant pix of the girls.
