Coraline

Today turned out pretty good after all. Chase spent the night over at Jonah's house last night so it was oddly quiet around the house. But he survived, and so did I. Baby even let me sleep with the exception of a 2 am feeding call.

I was up at 0700 and started my morning chores. Had my house completely clean, floors and all, by the time baby woke up at 0830. I was pretty impressed with myself. Jumped in the shower while baby played with some toys in his crib. Got out, got him into the bath while I dressed and got ready for the day. Got him out, dressed to tackle his day and downstairs to prep everything to head to Jenna's.

Arrived at Jenna's at 0900, got Chase dressed for his day. Jenna took Squeaky, I took Jonah and off to Norwich we headed. I was surprised when we got to Aunt Jeanne's house because Aunt Michelle was an HOUR early! This NEVER happens. Usually everyone waits an hour LONGER for her to arrive. Good Job! Got the boys set up to play the Wii and then did my weigh in. I am proud to report I lost 5.6 pounds over the last week. And that was just by adjusting my diet to correct proportions. And lots more water.

Purchased some of the protein shake stuff and we had our little hour long class. As soon as 1100 hit the boys and I were out the door! Off to Lisbon center to watch the 3D version of Coraline. It was a terrific movie with the exception of No One Told Us To Turn On The 3D Glasses! But I was feeling a little better after all was said and done because those who had figured out to turn on the glasses exclaimed they did not work anyway. So we were given passes to attend again at a later date. Which I promptly passed on to Jenna to take Jonah again later.

So tomorrow starts a new week for myself. I will be setting up my Wii program to assist in my weight loss. I will also start adjusting my diet a little more as well. I've been tracking my blood sugars and will be doing a fasting glucose test next week. I'm interested to see how this turns out as I have had some pretty good readings lately. My only concern has been my first thing in the morning blood sugars. The numbers seem a little high to me which is a concern. My bed time blood sugars are good. So am I dipping in the middle of the night? And is my body rebounding?

We shall see. But for now I am going to head upstairs and get the boys squared away. Then time to write in my text message log journal. Oh, and I will be watching Extreme Home Makeover tonight because the Voluntown CT Girard Family will be on it.

Night all!
