Relaxing weekend!

Had a great weekend with the ladies.  Until our 4th annual trip next year...  Here's a bikini shot!

Count down to Palm Springswith

Got my swim suit (not my 100% favorite, but it will work for laying out)... Now I need some decent color!  We've recruited 2 new girls to go with Kara and Cortney and I.  Its a fun cheap weekend kid and husband free.  Basically,  we relax, read, sleep in, play games,  get pedicures.  Sometimes we go out, but this year our plan is just to stay in and not get all dressed up but just relax and hang out.  

Oh... and did I mention, I am in the 160's now?  Well,  169.2, but I am there. I have not been there since 2009, so I am a happy camper.  Only like 15-20lbs to go.  

Down a size (or two)

I was squeezing (and I mean that literally), into my size 32 Miss Me's and my size 12 pants 3 months ago.  Now, I am happy to say I am fitting quite nice ( even a tad loose) into size 30 pants.  That's a size 9/10 I am back into.  I am still going for a goal of a 7/8 and maybe even a 5/6.  But I am happy for now.  I have lost quite a few inches around since early May.  I retired all my 32 and 11/12 pants.  I wont go back there again.  those days are over.

Off to have coffee with my favorite ladies!  Yes... I saved calories to get my self a "skinny" mocha!

Getting my run in at the gym.  

Time consuming!!!

This new house (which I might add we don't own, YET) is taking up a lot of time and planning.  We've been getting estimates for laminate, tile and carpet as well as painting the whole inside.  I like yellow, but I do not love yellow, lol!! Appraisal is this week.  I'm crossing my fingers it goes smooth and we could have the keys as early as the 15th of July.

Haven't been to the gym much this week. In fact, only 1 day and I haven't really been counting calories all crazy like.  I figure, eh... Aunt flo is in town, I am busy with a million things and I can use a break.  Back on track in a day or two.  Not too concerned.

I will add a friend of mine is looking amazing.  She has lost a ton of weight (after a baby who isn't even a year) and she is training to do fitness shows or competitions.  She is always building so much muscle definition its crazy!  She is busting her ass and it is paying off. She is an inspiration.  Way to go friend as you know who you are!!!!!

Anyhow,  weight and measurements again next week for week 12.  We shall see where I am.

Here is a pic of the twins from dance recital on Friday night.... and of course my hunky husband!!! I ran around like a chicken with my head cut off that night as lead volunteer. I had like 100 little girls I was making sure were ready to go for multiple dances.

My kid is a Machine!!

She rocked the Triathlon. She came in 10th place our of 39 kids.  She was the 3 youngest one in the top 10.  Her time was 17:11.  Not bad for a Run, Bike and Swim.

Finally lose what I gained on Vacation

I am down 15lbs now.  I had a set back since I gained weight on vacation.  So I had to lose it all and then I lost 2lbs on top of it.  Not to shabby. I can finally wear my shorts now, I could not wear before.  I still have a lot to lose, but at least I am going down.

Planning the Palm Springs trip again.  We have 2 new ladies going this year, so it will be a fun experience.  Looking forward to it, even thought it is the same weekend we are schedule to possibly get the keys for the house (again providing everything goes smooth).  Then of course the following week will be crazy busy with the kids starting school,  me starting classes,  moving,  etc.

Couple Dr.s appts coming up.  a routine physical and a pap (oh joy) and then going to the dermo to have moles checked.  Fun times, but I am terrified of skin cancer and it runs rampant in my family.

House Shopping

Has been quite the pain in the ass. We've been getting outbid left and right and the banks and sellers have been accepting other offers. However, the 1st house we put an offer on that accepted someone else's offer, fell out of escrow, so... We were able to accept a counter offer. So... This might be our new home come August. Needs  minor things, but it's big and in Etiwanda school district which is where we wanted to stay. No going East!! Woohoo!! We could have gotten a house cheaper, but I really didn't want to go all the way to Yucaipa or Beaumont. Wish us luck all goes through!!
