Cleaning

We were cleaning the kid's room today, here is a conversation between my 5 yo and me.

Me: Please come here and help me clean up.
Logan: Me don't like cleaning.
Me: Do you think I like cleaning?
Logan: yes
Me: What?
Logan: Well you do it all the time.

If only he knew, if only he knew...

Random

I have figured out I need to loos 45 lbs by the end of summer. To me that is July 31, 2009. I have started running every other day and trying to walk on the off day. I also need to start eating less. I love carbs and could snack on them all day long... time to stop! I have all this great cloth that I can not wear and would love to wear again. I am done having children and it is time to get back to a size I can feel comfortable about.

When I am done BFing and the size I want to be, I will be making this dress for myself. Now I will be finding fabric and what not for it... I think it might be my simple black dress?

My sister went in the hospital today. She is 35.5 weeks along with her twins. Her BP keeps creeping up so they want to keep an eye on things. I just pray they are safe and baby Mitch flips back around and is ready to come out. She wants to try to avoid a c-section and I pray she can do that. EEK! I am so excited for her.

Yup, that is about all that has been on my mind today.

Guest Post

I got to guest post over at Clothdiaper Whisperer. I wrote about the Moby type wrap that I made. I will explain how I made it here. The material I used was a jersey cotton. It came 60" width which I cut in half to make two 30" X 5 yard strips. I then used my stretch stitch and sewed all around the edges on all four sides. Sewing the edges is not necessary because it will not fray, but for me I need to finish it off. You can head over to Here and Here to see the different ways of wearing the wrap and some of the pros and cons of it.

While you are over here, sign up for her weekly giveaways... she always has wonderful prizes.

Vacation Pictures

I figure since my album is done and being sent to me this very minute... OK it wont be here till next week, but I thought I would share some of my pictures. I made my album using Blurb, I won a free book from them through MomAdvice. I had so much fun creating it and plan on making more. Anyway, My husband and I took our family to South Carolina for a week. We had a blast and getting back home and trying to get back in the swing of things has been its only down side, I think the blizzard the beginning of the week and the snow that is coming this weekend just is not helping.
Malia-7months
Looking out from the look out tower
At the SC Aquarium. Logan was having fun with this penguin, every time he put his hand up to the glass the penguin would dive down and touch it through the glass.
This would be grass sliding/surfing at Wannamaker Park, we loved all the county parks around Charleston.
Gabriel with the lion in the back round. This was at Riverbanks Zoo.
The Boys (Mark, Aidan, Gabriel and Logan).
Gabriel, Hailey and Logan
Hailey walking down the beach, she could have stayed there all day.
Gabriel, Logan and Todd looking for shells, they found quite a few.
Ms. Malia just loved the sand. She would dig her little feet down into the sand and then wiggle her toes together. She also loved trying to eat the sand and we had evidence of that for a few days after.
These are just a few pictures, there was many many more.
