Thursday already!

I'm sitting here waiting for Erin to bring me her ice cream sandwich - we are sharing one before bedtime! I don't want a whole one, I have reached another milestone in my weight loss quest! I've lost another 5lbs -YIPPEE! Only 4 more pounds to reach my prepregnant weight and then another 15 more to go, hopefully!

I've been getting the kids to bed at 9:30pm each night and that is such a blessing - I can get to bed earlier and everyone is much happier in the morning! I'm shooting for 9pm, but right now, they stop what they are doing at 9pm and get ready and are in bed by 9:30pm.

My leg is doing better, gets sore after being up and about for awhile, but that's to be expected - it had some trauma and is very black and blue bruised!

Today, I went to town after taking Isaac his forgotten back pack and lunch, he has a paper in there I have to sign every night in reference to his behavior that day in school and if I don't sign it, he will get in big big trouble! So, I went into town and got the truck washed, got my favorite chinese for lunch and stopped at Danielle's grave and dug up the flowers, worked up the dirt and put some fake mums there with Erin's help! I know my daughter is not there, only her body, but she is in heaven, but when we leave, I always say "Goodbye Danielle". Erin was wondering why I said that and I had to explain to her that this is where she is buried, but she is in Heaven waiting for us with Jesus! So, her grave looks a bit better now - it's been longer in between my visits there this summer thanks to and 18yr old and a baby, but I like to keep up on it, it's my way of still taking care of my daughter, I guess. Then, I picked up Curtis and took him to his physical - 91lbs and growing! He has to go to a dermatologist to have the birthmark on his back looked at and measured and then monitored to make sure it doesn't change any. I'm not too worried about it, I don't think it's changed other than looking smaller as he grows. But, it's a good precaution these days. So, it's been a busy day and I'm tired and going to bed! Lyndsay went to bed early (8:30pm), and hopefully won't wake up in a bit ready and raring to go! Brooke was working on her bedroom - needs drastic changes! So, I will check on her progress tomorrow and see what damage I can do on my last weekday home! Have a good day!
