So Far This Week

Monday

• Got up & made myself do my 2 mile walking video. Didn't want to but felt better after I did it.
• Headed to my parents for a cook-out & visit.
• Swung by Wal-Mart on the way (well, not really, went 30 minutes in the opposite direction as there is NOTHING "on the way" to my parents) to pick up a hanging flower for my Mom as a belated Mother's Day gift
• Visited for a bit - hung out with both my sisters for a change (I'm one of five kiddos). My younger sister took all the nephews for a ride on my Mom's "Gator" which they LOVED. Ate lots of good food. Chatted. Had fun.
• Got home to find Hubby & B back from their hiking trip - and my kitchen trashed from their lunch cook-out. I do love him -seriously! LOL
• Cleaned up kitchen, hung out together, it was nice.

Tuesday

• Began the day putting J in "real" undies. He wasn't impressed.
• Forced myself to do the 2 mile walking video again.
• Changed two wet set of clothing but I think J's starting to get it.
• Put him down for his nap.
• Headed out 3:00 to get groceries & to meet my MIL for help to buy a new bike!!!
• Did Wal-Mart groceries.
• Met up with MIL & went back in to Wal-Mart. Tried 3 bikes out & found a keeper. A Schwinn. Good price. Rides like a DREAM! My last bike was found in a dumpster at my FIL's work. Needless to say this new one works MUCH better!
• Went to the grocery store with kids & MIL. She willingly took them with her on her rounds. I got to shop alone. Bliss.
• Got home - put groceries away & made dinner.
• MIL came over & watched boys so I could try out new bike. Bliss. LOL Went the full six miles, but almost had to bail due to a really low blood sugar. Able to get it up with glucose tabs & slowly headed home. Successfully managed to ride almost all the way UP our driveway (1/4 mile UP hill) on the new one. Usually I manage 10 feet. Love it.
• Hubby got home late. Watched a little TV & went to bed early.

Today

• Got up way to early with J. Made breakfast (Donut muffins - yum!).
• After breakfast & Bible study crawled back to bed.
• Chatted with hubby while he finished getting ready. Went back to sleep.
• Slept WAY later than normal. No exercise - yet.
• Put J back in undies today. Still not overly impressed.
• Hung out. Played on PC. Boys played outside until the rain started.
• J woke up from nap dry (in a Pull-Up). Sat on potty for four stories. Nothing. Back in undies.
• About 30 minutes later J back on potty for another few stories. Nothing.
• About 30 minutes later he comes to tell me he "has to go potty!" We run to bathroom. He looks a little wet but wants to stand by "big potty, Mommy!" SUCCESS!!!!! Much celebration to be had in bathroom this afternoon. High 5's handed out. :-) He may end up being the easiest one yet!!!
• Spotted a robin's nest that we can sort of see outside the bathroom window.
• Rainy day - a game of Settler's will be happening tonight. Fun.
