It's always something...

He can always find a way to make me nervous. Rearranged furniture and he found a new item to climb on. That's my boy.

Little Moi Goals

In the midst of my crazy gratitude filled life I have to keep a few goals to keep me on track food wise. I'm doing this again because I needed to remember that losing weight and taking care of me doesn't have to be hard.

Food:

1. No snacking after dinner
2. Non fruit dessert for special events only (birthdays, showers, weddings, etc.)
3. One "Free" meal per week (Yeah Farmers Market Thursdays)

Portion:

1. Must have a fruit/veggie at every meal. Maybe multiple. Abundant fruits/veggies isn't bad
2. 2 Diet Cokes per day (if you know me you know this is a miracle in itself and hopefully will become 0 per day)
3. Drink at least 40 oz of water per day

Favorites:

1. Major Holidays (Chrismukkah etc.) off as long as jogged 1 mile per day or more for the 5 days prior to holiday
2. Churro's are for Disneyland only
3. Treat at movies if before 8pm and exercise was done for the day

Exercise:

1. Walk or jog at least 1 mile per day
2. Walk to locations close to home and park at furthest spot (if possible with little guy)
3. Do stretches or ballet warm ups daily

Rewards:

1. $5. toward something I want for each week I complete this
2. Sleep in on Saturdays/Sundays since I'm always on the go
3. At first weight goal (my secret) two pieces of clothing bought or pass to Disneyland

No & No

Ever have those days where it seems if it were Sesame Street that the word of the day would be "No"? I seem to be having more and more of them each day.

L is really growing up and enjoying the world of exploration BUT he doesn't get that climbing on objects that could harm him is not OK. For example his climb onto the little side table while I tried to cook dinner was epic.

This brings me to my lack of getting anything done and being in the process of moving. There are times I think he'd benefit from a full day of baby jail (the playpen) but I actually don't want him in it too much because things like showers are a must and he needs to hang out in baby jail while I'm in the shower which now has become a bit of a cold shower since having to have the door open to be in his view is a must as well.

Needless to say for the most part I'm sane and get things done but some days having someone help would be excellent.

I'm looking forward to the new home and the amount of space we will have so I won't have to worry about keeping objects he climb easily on near him.

Off to see what more adventures today brings with Super Secret Stunt Boy L.....
