Today was weigh in Friday, and another great one! Down another 2.2lbs, for a total of 15.4lbs. Yay. It feels good to see the hard work pay off!
Today was my Friday home with the girls. Of course, they woke up as Christian was leaving for work, so there was no sleeping in whatsoever. After a little hanging out, we ate some breakfast, got ready, and made a quick trip into school for their school picture day! I couldn’t let them miss their very first school pictures, of course! As soon as we walked in the door Olivia booked it for her class and was very upset when I told her we weren’t staying. Poor thing. It took her a little while to warm up to the photographer…but we finally broke her and she was laughing and smiling away. They did a few sister pictures, which helped warm Amelia up to the whole thing, and then Amelia took hers. It looked like they got some really cute shots, so I can’t wait to see them!
It was basically time for lunch and naps by the time we got home, so that worked out. I got my workout in while they napped, showered and rested for a while. They woke up just as Christian arrived home from work. Christian’s friend from work wanted to take him out for a couple of beers for his birthday, so I decided to pack up the girls and head out to the Mall of America for a while. A couple of the kids stores were having some sales, so I picked up some summer clothes for them, we ate some dinner, and got Christian some clothes for his birthday. By the time we got home, Amelia was exhausted, and went right to bed. Olivia and I hung out for a while…
We have a new neighbor across the street. He’s a younger guy, probably younger than us, and he moved in right at the beginning of winter, so we haven’t seen much of him. Tonight he and a few of his friends were out in his driveway just having a “good old time”. They were obviously all VERY drunk, one of them threw a glass beer bottle out into the middle of the street, and then they started to make their way down the street – down to the local bar I’m guessing. One of our other neighbors was walking her dog and stopped them to give them a hard time about the broken glass and stuff. They basically brushed it off and were on their way. About 30 minutes later, two cop cars pulled up to the house, apparently escorting them home. Must have been “asked to leave” the bar and sent home…or they were stopped on their way, who knows. It was quite a show though. And, a REALLY great first impression of our new neighbor. Lord.
Here is a picture I snapped of the girls before we took off to their school pictures. They’re so dang cute! I can’t stand it!
