Crack me up!

This morning, I was getting ready and listening to the girls play. They totally cracked me up when I heard them say this about the ring pops they were playing pretend with...

Kylie: "Is this candy because I'm on a diet?"
Ari: "Yes, but it's sugar free. No points."

Here's a couple other funny things they've said in April:

Ari when getting a box of candy from Great Grandma on Easter: "Is it fat free?"

Ari when Grandma was putting the spray butter on something: "That's good for you. It doesn't have any points."

Ari when Nicole asked her if the Easter bunny had come to visit: "It's not about that. It's all about God."

WOOOHOOOO!!!

Today was a suprise... I was just hoping that I didn't gain too much, but I lost a whole pound! This puts me at about 11 lbs!!! My mom has lost 11 lbs. and Janet lost over 3 lbs. today!! That puts her at 16 lbs.!! I'm so proud of Mom, Janet, and my Aunt Barb!!! They have really stuck with it- even when they got stuck for a while!!! GREAT JOB, everyone!!! Keep up the good work, and just say "no"! lol!!! :)

Happy Easter!!

I just read this and thought it was so good to remember why there's an Easter...

For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 1 Corinthians 15:3-5

I hope that you all have a very Happy Easter!! :)

Pictures from this weekend

We went to PA to visit the fam this weekend... I posted some pictures on my other blog if you want to see... http://365momentsinmylife.blogspot.com/ :) We had a really fun and relaxing time. Ari was feeling badly on Friday and only seemed to get worse. So, after Weight Watchers yesterday, I took her to the doctor. I told the girls that we paid $20 to have the doctor tell us that she needs to burp! lol! The antibiotic apparently didn't agree with her stomach and the doctor prescribed- POP! :) Which, of course, Ari doesn't like! So, I coaxed her to drink a small glass and we rejoiced when we heard a loud fart! Hooray! The things that we celebrate when we are moms!! lol!! Oh, and get this! I had to lose 1/2 lb. to get my 10 lb. ribbon at Weight Watchers! I lost 1/4! Go figure! lol!!

Today

I had such a fun morning with Ari! We had to go mail a Netflix movie that we'd lost the free sending sleeve for.. So, I had to get postage for it... As we were walking in, Ari kept grabbing her jeans, and I discovered that they were on totally backwards! So, after we fixed that, we went to the library to drop off and pick up some books... We got some really fun ones and found out it was storytime day! So, we went in to that, and they had cute songs and fingerplay things and 3 cute books... Ari participated in all the motions and LOVED it!! She was just so much fun!! We are hoping to go back again to more of these.. She had remembered going before but it's been a long time. She likes so many things that Kylie didn't really care that much for.... So, I have to remember that if Kylie wasn't totally into some things, that doesn't mean that Ari won't be... I feel bad that I'd kinda given up doing some of these things... I want to start trying some with Ari this year.... It will be my last with her at home... *sniff* I made Kylie some dirt cake in little cups with little spoons and fake flowers for her snack for the spring party tomorrow... And, Jas and I packed the little eggs with tiny chocolate bunnies for her egg hunt at school tomorrow... It's been a busy but pretty great day!! :) Thankfully, Bill and Janet took the girls to gymnastics and supper tonight so that we could get some stuff done!!! Oh, and I was a pound less this morning!!! I hope to hit 10 lbs. at Weight Watchers this week!! :)
