Thank goodness they aren't picky!

I really need to appreciate my kiddos' flexibility. I am trying to diet and save money so this requires me to cook more often. Today I was having a heck of a time finding something to easy, so I pulled out an old favorite. Both of my boys ate tuna fish sandwiches. It's amazing because I never thought they would be so easy to please.

It's interesting because over the past month Monster Boo has had a pitiful appetite. He literally sat down and ate his whole sandwich without interruption. He even picked the tiny pieces of egg and onion that fell off of the sandwich up and ate them.

Amazing!!

I need a color change!

Do you ever feel like you just need to completely change the look of your house? When we first moved into our home we painted our family room a teal color and I am quickly becoming tired of it. I feel like I need a soft green or yellow. I just know it will take some serious man hours to get it right.

It doesn't help that last night husband found a lovely drawing on the back of our sofa by my little artist Monster Boo. Ugh! I tried getting the pen out but it's not budging. So as you can see, we should probably just wait to do any changes.

I guess it would be more practical to just wait until the boys are a little older so it is not a waste. We will see...

House Envy

Why is it that I am always looking for bigger and better?  I have constant house envy even though our house is just fine.  I love the house that we currently live in, but just feel like we need so many more features in a house.  I have an ongoing list in my head of the perfect home for my family.  I just went on my first walk of my diet and passed a home that I had my eye on 3 years ago when we moved into our current house.  This house has all the necessities on my list, but keeps coming around at the wrong time.  I guess this just means that once we are ready to get a bigger house, I will have a great list to go off of so that it will be our forever home.  We dream of being in a house long enough to pay it off.  So, now I must create my wish list on paper so I forget nothing!

Time to get to work!

I just returned home from a quick vaca with my sisters and am totally rejuvinated!  It's now time to get my act together.  Four months ago I began my weight watchers dieting adventure.  And last month I gave up.  Tomorrow marks the beginning of my jump back onto the wagon.  I have gained back quite a bit of weight since summer began and I have got to get myself back in shape! 

I am not going to tell my starting weight, but each week I will update here how much loss I had for the week and then a total for the entire time as well. 

Here we gooooo!
