Wizards, anyone?


Ok, so I don't have a girl and I don't have a child old enough to really care about the show, But, I LOVE Wizards of Waverly on Disney. It's just precious to me. And, guess what....that's right! The movie came out last night on Disney and I am set to record it tonight. Can't wait.


So, Kade is still a little sluggish. He has a slight temp and yucky yucky nose this morning with a HUGE surprise from the diaper monster this morning. Stuck inside on a weekend. Well, except for the bike ride downtown this morning. I know it was pushing it to take the little man out in the heat, but he didn't mind. We rode all the way down to the water and strolled through the Market downtown. I love Pensacola. Then, we headed to Sonic to get some ice, but the K was out like a light the second he hit the car seat. What is it about car seats? Later, I headed on out to the A&E Fabric store and, oh my goodness, it is spectacular. So overwhelming though. I did buy some fabric for a few things though...surprise. Will post pics once complete!

Tonight, Grammy is coming over to visit, so hubby and I make even sneak away for a movie or something special. We'll see.

Seriously, sick again?

Well, Kade stayed with Kevin or my mother all summer long. Not one, I repeat, not one time did he get sick during the summer. However, the first day Kevin went back to school, Kade ran fever and had to stay out Monday and Tuesday. The following Sunday he got a fever again and stayed out Monday and Tuesday (thanks to my dad for taking off Tuesday for me). Now, all was well, and this morning they called and said Kade projectile vomited twice and I had to come get him. Yuck. Three times in two weeks. Well, here's to the start of my weekend. This beautiful weather and it looks like we will be stuck inside. I mean, he doesn't really act all that sick, but he's not eatin good. I also ran in to one place and he started like he was gonna yack. Somehow, he kept it down. I had the bag ready. So, we will not try to spread our germs around town this weekend...off to bed we go. Or, just hours on end of "Baby Boost". He's obsessed.

Shrinkage

Weigh in day week 1 was fun. 5 lbs disappeared from my physique, and I'm super excited. Only 28 to go. Woof. Seems so long, but it's one week at a time now, or one meal at a time really. It really hasn't been hard. The food has been really good, except for pasta alfredo with brocolli (gag). The desserts are yummy, of course. I won't bore you with it, but I did want to share in my excitement. "I can do all things through Christ who strenghtens me".

Kenny P talked me into running the 1 mile for Corporate cup games in October. I am a very slow runner, so this worries me a bit. I usually run between a 9 and 11 minute mile, depending on the day and the mileage. Very slow. My goal, however, is 8 minutes. I mean, it's just one mile, Tara. Geeze. I ran around the track today as Kevin timed me. I can do a 1/4 mile in 2 minutes, but not 4 times consecutively yet. I'll get there. I'm just repeating my verse. Holla.

Movie Quote (haven't done this in a while):
"It's a regimine, mom, like doing situps"

Solo at the cinema?

So, today I realized that I need to go to the movies. Kevin has plans, Kade is going to Grammy's house. Therefore, Mommy needs some me time. However, I can't think of who to go with...so, I will go alone. If you've never gone to the movie by yourself, you should try it. No one will whisper in your ear during a scene you don't want to miss. You can down a big fat diet coke without someone saying "can I have a sip". The popcorn will have to hold off, since momma's on the osmond plan. Therefore, I'm going to see that Julia movie. Can't wait. It was a beach morning with Kade, a good nap for the youngster, a little house cleaning, a joggaroo and then the movies for me. Yipee.

Nutrisystem or malnourishsystem?


So, I got my big fat box of food on Tuesday. What did I do? Why yes, I headed out to Cactus Flower for my "last supper". Hopped on the scale this morning for an exciting venture of weight loss. I really am excited about it. However, I highly recommend taking extreme caution before giving blood the same day you start a new diet with extreme caloric reduction. Headache. I'll be singin' the nutrisystem song with Marie in no time.

Goal: 33 lbs

My love for weekends
























I feel like I should write a love song for weekends. Words simply can not be enough. I get...Kade time, Kev time,a little later wake up time, couch time, stay up late and not feel stressed about it time, mom and dad time, sunshine time, boat time, church time...you get the picture. Work has been super busy and well, I will leave it at that on a public internet site. So much has happened since my last post. I got to see all 3 of my best friends in the whole wide world between the 1st of July and the 9th of August. Brandi, Carin and then Laura. Ahhhh. I love those chickies. Kade got to meet his future bride, Mary Patton. I also got to see Kelly Langford, who was like my sister growing up. She got to meet stud Kade. It's just been some fun time weekends. Here's a few pics.
