Catching Up

Trying to catch up on all my blog posts.  Here's what we have been up to the past few weeks -
Caitlin has been in school.  She's doing well and loves her new teacher.  Grades are looking great so far.  This is her first year of getting As and Bs as grades instead of just being average/excelling/etc.  She got her progress report and had all As and 1 B.


Alaina started Mother's Day Out.  At first she had some trouble adjusting to the rules and schedule but now she is doing well and really loves it.

On the weekends, we try and forget about work and school and do some playing.
 
I found Alaina asleep ON TOP of her playhouse one weekend.  I'm glad she doesn't rollover in her sleep!


We've been trying to all eat a little better.  We all like fruits and veggies!


I have also found some all-natural low calorie snacks that are yummy. 
Watch out - this popcorn is addictive!

And these potato straws are yummy.  38 straws for 130 calories.  The cheddar cheese ones are even better!  I also saw that they make BBQ ones.  I have yet to find those at any stores around here.

And these apple straws remind me of the cinnamon twists at Taco Bell, but low calorie.  I like to use all these as substitutes for french fries or potato chips when I go to Subway or McDonald's.  I can't cut out fast food entirely, but I can make small changes like this.

Things I said to Caitlin this morning while getting ready

"werewolves are hard to kill, aren't they?

"quit trying to make your eyeball pop out and fix your hair"

I tell you it's one of those mornings!!

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I am SWAMPED at work and don't have time to blog.  :(  I'm barely holding my head above water.  I get knots in my neck and shoulders multiple times a day from the tension and I am surviving on Diet Dr Pepper.  :)

I am hoping it will end after October 9 (when we have a big release) but I'm not so sure.  Keep your fingers crossed!!
