I have a longing for... fast food!

How crazy is that? Do you know how hard it is to be on a diet in which you really can't have fast food? Saving me money, of course, but just seeing people french fries makes my stomach growl! Fast food is so convenient, so yummy... so bad for you. Which helps keep me on track! I don't want Parker to grow up thinking that picking up dinner through the drive through is normal. It's not. I do struggle a little bit with that though, we ate fast food quite a bit when I was growing up, so it's hard to break the habit. Most of my extended family is overweight, and I do not want to will not become that way. Yes, genes can play a part in that, but self control, exercising, and eating healthy plays a MUCH bigger role. I'm considered "normal" right now (according to my BMI,) but my goal is to be the weight I was before I had Parker, which is still "normal" and, I feel, a healthier weight. I will meet that goal by June. I promise you, and I'm not a promise breaker.

I don't see how mothers keep their houses clean. Is there ever a time in a child's life that they are not dragging everything out of the toybox and scattering things throughout the house? I clean after he goes to bed, and as soon as he is up he has to drag everything out, I do the same thing during his nap time, it is a vicious cycle. I'm not actually complaining, it is actually kind of funny, but I wonder what the apartment inspector thought when he came to change the air conditioning filters and check the smoke alarm? haha

Yes, that is my son in a pot. haha he did this himself and I had to take a picture, he was so proud. As you can see, there are various things scattered all over the kitchen and living room floor!

He gets in some pretty crazy places/things, and usually he can't get out! He was stuck under the kitchen chair, which I thought was hilarious, so it got him laughing as well. It was a little bit of a challenge to get him to cooperate with me long enough to get him outta there!



That's all I have for tonight! I'll leave you with a picture of me and my little angel!

I can't kiss him enough!
