Peanut and Squeakers are well. They are trying to speak. They will be evaluated for speech at their next pediatrician appointment and we'll take it from there. I think they should be further along. They sign and they can certainly understand a multi step command. I feel they get frustrated sometimes because they can't tell you exactly what they want. Peanut is definitely pulling ahead with weight gain and height. Squeakers doesn't eat as much as Peanut does. They love construction vehicles. That is going to be their theme for their 2nd!!! birthday party. And they loooove books.
Our new addition is done. We needed the extra room. We are looking at kitchen tables for in there (then I can have my kitchen island :-) ) Eventually we will have some living room furniture in there and a bar.
We went to the local fair on Wednesday. We picked up my Dad and headed down. We looked at cows, pigs, goats, sheep, horses, tractors, RVs and had really yummy food like gyros and smoked pulled pork sandwiches. I had an apple dumpling with cinnamon ice cream. Gotta love fair food.
Our double jogger is on the way out. We use it a lot and I'm surprised at how it's falling apart. I found a double Bob on sale and I'm going to order it. I would really like to get back into running and the Bob is better suited for it than our B.aby Trend.
I told E about a pumpkin race in October. You can run or walk and you can dress up if you want. I emailed for more information about how to sign up for it. It's been so long since I ran it. I was Clifford the big red dog.
I go back to work Nov 1. I don't want to be away from the boys. I am still only a part time employee. So I will be gone for four hours. My Dad will be watching Peanut and Squeakers. They love being with their Poppy. We are so fortunate that he watched E and now the boys.
I had an ultrasound done because my monthly cycles are terrible. I have fibroid tumors and a polyp. My appt is Nov 9 with the doctor. I know I will have them removed and maybe have an ablation to stop the cycles (which are irregular and heavy).
I need to step up my game to lose weight. I have really nice clothes that I want to fit into for school and I am not happy with my body. Hence the want to start running again. Plus I need to eat better. How you look is 80% what you eat and 20% exercise. I found a really great blog about a young woman who lost half her body weight. It is packed with information and recipes and advice. It's called http://www.canyoustayfordinner.com/ She is a real person and she tells you like it is. That it's hard work that will get you to your weight you want. I like when she asks herself, "Andy can you do it for just today?" Yes I can do it for just today. Baby steps.
