...I was up every hour with Chance. I was up for the day at 7am but ended up falling asleep on the couch after breakfast. I woke up in panic mode because Melissa was about to show up any minute to watch Chance and Tenley while I went to the gym. After I got off the phone with Melissa making sure she didn't come until 10, I dashed around the house getting myself and Esmie ready to go. Then I had to feed Tenley so that she wasnt hungry while I was gone. Melissa showed up, I left, got to the gym, dropped Esmie off with the other girls who were at the playground with their kids, put my stuff in the locker, and put in 3.1 miles on the eliptical. And that felt GREAT! Oh, and by the way, I weighed myself before my workout and I lost a few pounds:) Yep, I'm pretty happy about it! Working out, eating healthy(er) is paying off, plus breastfeeding really helps too. Anyway, After my workout I went and got Esmie, visited with the girls for a few minutes and left. I picked up subway(ok, its not THAT healthy but still) for Melissa and myself...Turkey,lettuce,cucumber,green pepper and cheese on wheat, toasted. No condiments because of course those are horrible, calorie-wise. Don't get me wrong, I love my different condiments but ya know...gotta give up some things if your trying to eat healthy. (especially mayo..yuk!) Anyway!! I got home and Chance had crashed on the floor, probably from getting almost no sleep last night. I moved him to his room and the rest of us ate our lunch. She stayed and visited for awhile and when she left, Chance woke up and Esmie went for her nap. Yep, no nap for me. But I was still on my "high" from working out. Chance and I had lots of laughs together. Moments like those are beautiful. Watching him fall down from laughing so hard. :)
I made hamburgers on the george forman for dinner. Dressed them up with onion, tomato, lettuce, and Jenny-O turkey bacon. The only thing that went wrong was that I accidentally bought white buns instead of wheat. Oops! Was still good though. That bacon added a little extra taste.
Phil got home, showered and left to play basketball. Lorina came down for a visit with her almost one year old and then the kids went down for the night. And they went down pretty easy actually! Which brings me to writing this post.
My point of telling you a play by play of my day is because when I stepped on that scale and saw a few pounds gone...that changed my whole day right there! It's really the little things right? I was in a darn good mood all day, mostly because of that! haha it may sound dumb but seriously, I'm still just pumped!!!
Ok, that's it for now. I hope your Wednesday was as good as mine!
Take care.
