February 2011

February ends today and I have a feeling March will be crazy. With sports, getting this army stuff going...finally, parties, etc.

Let's start with Riker:
Riker starts T-Ball in March! I am so excited! I have a parent meeting to go to on Saturday and the first game is March 26, 2011. :) I can't wait.

Rien Rae is now in a toddler bed. She's such a big girl now and goofy. She plays jokes on us and makes faces at us until we laugh....gotta love her!

Kaedence got her ears pierced yesterday and she looks so pretty! She cried for less than 30 seconds and got over it in a flash.

We are trying to eat better in our household. It's hard though cuz Sean and I love our soda's and pizza.

I have gotten back to the gym. It has been FOREVER. I'm currently going 5 nights a week until I loose the 15 pounds....now 14. Then I will back down to 3ish. The other night I burned 887 calories....YAY me!

Sean goes to MEPS Wednesday and next Monday-ish we will find out when and where Basic & AIT will be. YAY him!

That's our life right now...bring it on. :)

Sean's Birthday, Toy Story, etc.

Today was Sean's 24th birthday. The kids bought him a set of pots and pans. He loves to cook and he had been begging for a new set for months. He had been really sad that his birthday was on a Monday because he wanted me to be able to be around so he was very pleased to find out last night before we went to bed that I had asked off weeks ago and would be spending the day with him. We took him to his favorite restrauart Pappadeaux for lunch. Then we just spend the afternoon going to places he loves like Best Buy. He was pleased to have a day about him. It's been awhile. :)

Riker is currently OBSESSED with Toy Story, Buzz Lightyear mostly. We really wanted to take him to the Toy story double feature but our schedules didn't allow us to take him. So we decided to make a big deal out of watching them at home. Last night we set up the living room for movie night. Had popcorn, homeade pizzas, and cookies. He loved it. We started late though so we will have to watch Toy Story 2 next week. We can't wait to take him to Toy Story 3 in June. We had been planning for months for him to be a UFC fighter for Halloween but yesterday he saw a Buzz Lightyear costume and wanted it bad. When we were watching Toy Story last night I tried it on him and he freaked out ran around the living room laughing and rolling all over the place. I had to hold him down to take it off of him.

Rien Rae is 7 weeks old now. She has great head control and is such a sweet girl. She smiles all the time! We just love her.

It is so different having a breastfed baby than a bottle fed one. Riker received breast milk until 6 1/2 months of age but it was through a bottle and supplemented with formula thanks to the nursing staff and St. Davids Georgetown who convinced Sean and I we had to give him formula because he lost a few ounces after he was born. In a moment of weakness I agreed to. Very soon after I learned that was normal. I was always determined that my next baby would be fed the way I wanted. Rien is 7 weeks old and only gets a bottle when I am at work. Even though it's still my milk she is not a fan. When Rien wants to eat she isn't happy until she does so I have learned I must give her what she wants. I am now "that lady feeding her baby in public." But hey I keep covered. :)

I seriously need to get off my butt and start working out. I need to find the time. I still have 8 pounds of pre-Rien weight and 7 pounds of excess weight to get rid of. My goal date was January 7th but at this rate I don't see that happening. It is time to get down to business!

3 Weeks

On Wednesday Rien Rae had her two week check up. She now weighs 7 lbs 12oz and is over 20 inches long. She is growing so fast but is still smaller than her brother was at birth. The past 3 weeks has gone by pretty smooth. The switch from 1 kid to 2 has been much easier than expected. Rien has done really well at work with me. It takes me a little longer to get stuff done than usual but overall she has done great.

Riker has decided that he loves to hold his sister it's so cute. He has also become very interested in mommy feeding Rien. When he was told the other night that he could not hold his sister because mommy had to feed her, he lifted up his shirt and grabbed his boppy. I cracked up! He is such a great kid. We bought him a 4-month pass to Jungle Java on Saturday so we are going to start taking him more often. For all the parents you should know the passes are on sale right now.

FYI, no weight loss this week but no weight gain either so that's good. We got P90X and are going to start later this week. Wish us luck. Mostly that the find the time. With our lack of free time it will probably be more like P180x. lol.

Well. That's all for now. :) More to come next week.
