Weekend in a post.

So...did I ever mention that Labor Day weekend when I went to the lake and got some wasted that I didn't take a sip of alcohol(none, nada, zip) for a week?

No?

Yeah, cause it was that bad. I don't remember anything past dinner. Which might have been the only food I had that day. Ha!

Seriously, though. I ratherly ever drink like that. With two babies it just isn't worth it to feel so miserable the next day. Not to mention the looks you get the next day and all the reminders of stupid shit you did and said. Seriously, just don't. Ugh.

So last night was my first taste of vodka in a week. Sunday night football and I felt better so I had a couple classes. It was great but the thought of it didn't make me want to hurl either! 

It was kinda a low key weekend. We took the kids to the local county fair. Yes, we're pretty redneck although we look normal for the most part. 

But the kids had such a great time! I mean look at their faces!

Yes, Luke is excited. Don't let his sober expression fool you.

We just stayed out about an hour and brought them, cleaned them up(this was a must) and put them to bed.

I had a crazy day on Saturday(blah) so much that it was hard to enjoy the Razorback came that night. So I ended my night early and went home to study for my first A&P exam. Fun times right there. 

Sunday I spent more time studying while babes took Luke to see Planes and Lil napped. I managed to get in a 2 mile run and JM revolution w/o. Felt like I had a great day but weighed myself this morning and I was at 160. Stab me in the eye! Weight is sooooo hard to get off. So this week I am gonna try HARDER to get back down to 155. I have noticed my jeans are getting snug do definitely not a choice. Please lord be with me. 

That's its today, folks!

Friday! Shopping day!

I'm back in less than 12 hours y'all. Craziness right there.

This morning I let Luke go to school cause momma needed a break and also cause it's grandparents day and his Dede and Papa were going to have breakfast with him. He was way too excited about this.

I decided me and Lil needed to get out of the house so we went to the Rock for some shopping and lunch with daddy. Lunch was great. Shopping....not so much. She was EVERYWHERE! But Luke desperately needed a new pair of shoes. He's only had the one pair that he can wear to school for about 2-3 months now and they were pretty worn out. Even the husband mentioned that we might look into getting him some new ones which never happens. He thinks they own enough clothes. But between my work schedule and school and Lil hitting the terrible two's about 10 months early shopping has been the last thing on my mind as I've mentioned before. Once or twice. ;)
But look at these too cute Chucks I got him! I think they are gonna be so adorable with his razorback jersey he wears on game days!  

He also got a pair of New Balance but I'm not sure I'm loving them yet so we'll see. Nothing for Lil. I seriously have trouble deciding what to put her in every time we leave the house. Girlfriend should not need anything until it gets cold.

And don't let this pic fool you. She's a bundle of rottenness. ;)

And, on a different/fitness note, I kinda figured out why I wasn't losing any weight despite all the crazy work I thought I was putting in. Turns out when your running outside with a 30+ lb child/stroller you're probably not running as far or as fast as you think. I downloaded the app Runkeeper to my iphone. I wanted to know a little more about my distance and pace and since I don't have a Garmin (nor the money for one since I just spent $100 on one kid) I thought this app could work for now.  I don't think it's super accurate but close enough for a freebie. Anyway turns out I need to be upping my game a little for my outside runs.But now that I know I plan to do just that!

I also did really well this week with cutting out sugar and processed food. I did lose a couple lbs but we had pizza last night and Mexican for lunch. Womp, Womp. I'll get back to it starting tomorrow. I have a baby shower next weekend and a diet bet to still win! HA!

So off to do my run on the treadmill today! Gotta torch that cheese enchilada and taco!

Later folks!

I'm a slacker.

I have been so terrible this week and last and the week before that and that. I know I say I'm gonna write more.

When I started this blog it was to not only be a weight loss/fitness blog but this is what the kids are up to and here are all our pictures. 

But I'm so tired.

Lil is such a handful these days.Most days I can barely stay awake to get homework done, I'm just so worn out from chasing her. If possible, we no longer do things such as going to the grocery store together or shopping because she will probably start throwing a temper tantrum at some point. Most of the time this will happen because she is wanting to sit in the grocery cart or her stroller. She wants to be running around getting in to everything around us.

This all basically means I stopped doing much of anything. Except shop for groceries. Which I've done after class a few times(8!!) just to avoid taking her.

I need to desperately go shopping. I need clothes. Looks like there's gonna be alot of online shopping in my future.

Sorry for the short post. I just wanted to explain why there haven't been any. Tomorrow we are taking the kids to the county fair. I will try to make everybody look decent for a few minutes just so I can snap a pic!

Later!
