Here goes nothing.

Well some really good friends inspired me to try this again. I wanted a fresh start so here it is. A quick update.


Tucker
Tucker is 2 1/2 now and totally terrible two's. He is completely a different child than when I had posted before. Like my title says, not sure whose kid he is because he is definitely not mine. Mailman? Schwans? Jehovah's Witness door knocker? Who knows. But if you happen to find my sweet, polite, caring, loving little boy please return him. He has been hitting and spitting at daycare. Not my kid. He got all his toys removed from the living room because I swear he hasn't touched them in a month.

Sad thing is, he hasn't even asked for them back. We decided to tell him he could have one toy to play with. He chose a Frankenstein mask. Backfire. He got bored with that and I offered for him to pick another toy, hinting towards a dump truck. He chose a hand held drum that he took in the living room and played with for 1 minute then decided to throw it. Backfire. He plays more with his sister's toys than his own. Well I will give him some credit. He is an amazing big brother. He loves his sister, even though I'm sure he's still jealous. I know he loves her to death. He will wipe her mouth if she has drool or spit up. He will be the first to tell me mom Ellie pooped. I'll say, no way because I haven't smelled it. So I check and sure shit, she pooped! He is constantly giving her hugs and kisses (melts my heart). When he is older I truly hope he still loves her this much!


Ellie
Little Ellie Lynn. 6 months old and stubborn. Wow. She is the boss. Even if she is starving, if she doesn't want to eat. She's not going to. Try again in about 10 minutes and then she'll think about it. If there is any commotion going on around her, not going to happen. She will let the milk roll into her mouth and just ooze out the sides of her lips rather than drink it if she's not in the mood. And naps. She's a little cat napper. A little 10 minute here, 1/2 hour here, basically making it impossible for mommy to get anything done. I'd also like to tell you that she tortured her father for the first 2 or 3 months of her life. When she would wake up in the middle of the night on his shift (yes we did shifts, it worked amazing and everyone should do this.) she would cry for 2 hours straight sometimes. I thankfully could not hear this from the bedroom on the other side of the house, but would sometimes wake up to go potty and hear this and offer to help. Jamie being as stubborn as Ellie says No, we'll get through this. (what a nice guy right?) BUT, she is an amazing night time sleeper now and it's honestly not very often she is in a bad mood. She has recently started sitting up so that means crawling is around the corner and walking is a few blocks and then Terrible TWO's AGAIN! Son of a bitch.


Me
I'm a loser. Not kidding. To date, I've lost 68 pounds and not far to go. It's a long slow process and it's hard. Not gonna lie. But I've stuck to it, and I'm very proud of my success. For those wondering I've been doing weight watchers since March 2nd. I have so many friends around me that are so supportive and there for anything. I really wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for them. Other than my weight loss, my life is unorganized, moving way to fast and awesome as ever!


Jamie
He works. He comes home. He eats supper. He give baths. That's pretty much his life. Not saying mine is better. I do the same thing except I'm cleaning up the kitchen while he is giving baths. He's an amazing dad though, his kids are lucky to have him!

Well I hope this was exciting enough for you to want to read again. If not I'm sorry I've wasted 5 minutes of your life!
