Weight Loss

We have been going to the gym for two weeks now. I really enjoy it. It does wear on you once and a while though. One day you will be all energized and ready to go and the next day you will be tired and not very enthused, but you go anyway. Then you feel better after you go. I've been weighing myself every Monday since we started, which has only three. I feel like I've lost some weight. It looks like my face has a little, and so have my fingers because my ring is a little loser. When I step on the scale it still says I'm 145 lbs. I would think I would at least drop down to 140 lbs by now. I might just need to get a new scale. This one is pretty old. We have been watching what we eat, or at least trying too. Hopefully all this working out will pay of soon. I am planning on walking in the Race for the Cure in May. I would like to walk the 5k, but we will see. I am hoping to get Shannon to go with me. I will have to ask her what she would like to walk. I pretty sure Melyni and Alma are running in the race, but if anyone else wants to do it too that would be awesome. Plus you get a lot of free stuff at the end. I wish I could talk my husband into doing it, but he thinks it's a woman thing. No matter what I am planning on walk in the race. Well this is kind of a pointless update, but oh well.

New Ring.

So my diamond fell out of my ring at the beginning of last month. My fingers have gotten chubby, so we had to cut my ring off. I did find my diamond though. So Jeremy said something about just getting me a new ring instead of getting my ring fixed (I still want to get it fixed someday). So I have been doing some internet shopping for rings. I don't want to get something to expensive, just something pretty. So I have chose two rings. I haven't showed Jeremy yet, but you guys can tell me what you think.

This one is from Zales. This one is really pretty, but It might be too big for my finger.

I like this one because it isn't huge. This one is from Ben Bridge. I really like this one.

Some pictures taken in March.

Tyra's birthday picture. Can you believe she's already 4 years old.

It was really hard to get one of them together.
Silly Shelby.

Our family at albertson's park.
Teasing some geese.

Look at that face.

Working Out.

Not much has been going on lately. Jeremy and I have been going to gym on Base. They have a nice little area were the kids can play. The girls love going to they gym every night. We have been going to the gym everyday (except Sunday) since Wednesday. I feel great. I think Jeremy does too. I am hoping to lose some weight before our family reunion so I don't look so bad in a swimming suit. Plus I would like to be healthy. It has been nice to be able to go to the gym. On Saturday we had a really really nice day. Jeremy and I walked outside on the track with Shelby (she was in a stroller). Jeremy jogged for an hour and I walked for an hour. We got to have a nice conversation. Shelby fell asleep half way through. That was really nice. Now the weather is nasty again so we will be back inside the gym. I can't wait to go to the gym tonight. I look forward to it everyday.

We finally moved Shelby's bed into Tyra's room and guess what? She sleeps in Tyra's bed with her. We are still have issues with her sleeping through the night. So I have to get up and put her back to sleep. Then she realizes if she doesn't cry she can sneak into our bed. Most of the time I am to tired and don't realize she is in our bed until Jeremy leaves for work. By that time it is pointless to try to get her to go back to bed in Tyra's bed. Other then that everything is good here. We cut off our directv so the first week of April was a little boring and the girls drove me crazy, but now we are use to it and I get to watch the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks all day long. I usually block it out or keep myself busy so it doesn't bother me. Once and a while they will want to watch a different movie. NOT TODAY. We also don't need directv because I can watch everything on the Internet. We have satellite so it doesn't take a long time to watch things.

I guess I better go. I am going to bake some cookies even though I don't need to eat them. I am going to try Melyni's pumpkin cookies and then I make a oatmeal applesauce cookie that is really good. So I guess I better go do that. Plus I think I just wrote a bunch of nothing.

Under warranty my butt!

Today Jeremy took our car in to get fixed. We have been having issues with this car ever since we got it. We have had a horse bit it, a dent put in the front, and it has been keyed. That is only the outside stuff. We have had a lot of issues with the inside stuff. They had to fix it because it leaked oil. It's just been a mess. We've only had for almost 2 years. It was a brand new car when we bought it. I guess the car is still under warranty, plus it had a recall on it. So he took it in to get new tires (the second set of tires we had to buy for it) and to get it worked on. I am glad that the car is covered, the thing that bothers me is that you have to pay for the rental car. Jeremy had to put down a $150 deposit for the rental car. Then he has to pay $45 for tomorrow and everyday that we have the stupid car. On top of that they give him a gas guzzling SUV, he had to pay more for it being an SUV because that is all they have. If we took it in to get one thing fixed it would be one thing, but it has been recalled. I think they should have to pay for the stupid rental car. I am not very happy. Jeremy needs to call Suzuki and tell them he hasn't been very happy with the car and the dealership he bought it from. Sorry about the angry blog, I just needed to vent.This is the only picture I have of our car, so here is a better one that the computer had.
Ours isn't that nice anymore!
