Craziness

So much has happened over the past week, I have so much going through my head, I just don't know what to say!!!

Weekend in SA: AWESOME! The party was a blast (those 'tropical drinks' were SO strong!), spending time with all the family was so great, I miss everyone already. I just loved watching the kids interact with each other, as well as their grandparents, great-grandparents, and more! They were all the hit of the party, just being 'passed' around all night long, but they were so good, I was so proud of my baby boy and my sweet nieces!

Riley: My poor little guy is sick. Sorry to Becca and Cameron if that's where you got it! I don't know where he got it, but he is sick. No fever, but his lungs are full of nastiness. I hate to hear him cough, it makes me so sad. I took him to the doctor yesterday and she gave him an antibiotic to get through it, since he can't 'cough it up' and get it out of his body. They weighed him and he weighed 17 lbs. 10 oz. I know, I know, so skinny, but they said he's actually gone above his curve, so that was good news. He just feels so bad, and he wants so much attention, which I want to give him, I just want to hold him and rock him all day, every day, for as long as it takes for him to get better. Hopefully that will be soon. Also, his 1st birthday is in 3 weeks! Yikes! I've got to plan it and get the invitations out ASAP.

Weight Loss: I lost another pound according to my Sunday weigh in, so that's good. However, I am having a very hard time getting 'back on the wagon' this week. First obstacle is finding time to plan our menus and go grocery shopping since Riley is taking a lot of energy and time. Second obstacle is finding the energy to plan our menu and go shopping. It just feels like it's taking a little longer than normal to recover from the weekend out of town. I think both Chris and I just want a day to sit home on the couch & do nothing...but alas, it's only Tuesday. And I'm sure you can guess how we are feeling about exercise right now. Hum bug. I know we will bounce back, we just need a little more time to recuperate.

Missing Friends: I miss all my friends up here. Several of them went to Mardi Gras in Shreveport last weekend while we were in San Antonio and I saw their pictures and realized that we haven't seen most of them for almost a month, or more! I miss them! I hope we get to see them BEFORE Riley's birthday party. If any of you actually read my blog...I love ya and miss ya!

Aaaahhh, sweet stress, what would I do without it?

I had SUCH a great time with y'all in SA! The party was a blast and I was so happy you were able to be there. I think all the kiddos had a great time playing together! Sorry that Riley is sick, that is no fun! :-( Congrats on the 1 pound loss, that is great that you still lost while out of town! I am looking forward to Riley's big day next month- can't believe he will be 1!!! :-)

Riley is getting so big! Hope he feels better soon. Good job on the weight loss- I agree w/Mel- so hard to lose while out of town! :-)
