We got a wii fit 16 days ago. It has been so much fun! I love that it tracks everything and I can view my progress on a chart and that I can track the kids growth too. Alex and I have had alot of fun competing with each other and the kids can do some of the games too. Lydia loves the obsticle course and is really quite good at it while the boys like hitting the soccer balls and being a penguin and catching fish. Taylie is indifferent. It is so fun and doesn't feel like exercise I can feel a difference in my posture and have lost about 5 lbs. I love that I can exercise any time of day, with or without the kids, and in any attire I feel like. Progress is going great so far and I will keep you posted.
Taylie is starting to sit, she is still not sleeping through the night and ends up in our bed. I just love having her she is such a happy baby and definately mommy's girl. She crys when I leave the room and prefers me over Alex. I have to admit that it makes me happy that she just wants her momma. Alex says he is okay that she prefers me but he sure is trying hard to sway her. It is cute though.
AJ and Austin are boys, dirty, smelly, fun-loving, trouble making little boys. I love them. I remind myself of this often. Like when they "Hiya" there yogart all over my kitchen. And seem to find every mud/water puddle in the back yard. Or when they try and pour there own juice at lunch instead of waiting for me to finish feeding Taylie. They love to smell toes. Not just their toes, but Taylie's and mine as well. They are so imaginative. They make airplanes, firetruck, cement trucks, and trains out of their bedding. They are very loving though and they just make me laugh.
Lydia and I started reading Beezus and Ramona. She loves it! She asks several times a day if we can read it. I am so glad I bought it. I was afraid she was to little and wouldn't understand. I asked her what do you like about this book. She said I am not sure what the point is but it helps me know how I should behave. I told her it was just a fun story and that there didn't always need to be a point that sometimes it was just fun to listen to funny stories. She didn't seem convinced and I started doubting if she was old enough. Then I walked into her room when Alex was putting her to bed to hear her animatedly telling Alex all of the little stories and the excitement in her voice. It made me so happy. I can't wait till I can read it with her and once it is over we will go see the movie just the two of us. I hope she keeps enjoying it and if so I can't wait to read to her all of the other Ramona books. And Fudge, Super Fudge, and ect. I hope she develops a love for reading and that it is something we will always share.
Alex has had a few days off which has been nice after working such long hours the last few weeks. I worked one day last week. It was the first time since having Taylie. It was nice to be back and at the same time I missed my kids so much.
We had new pictures taken this weekend. I will post them soon!
