Tuesday Updates

Today would have been my Grandpa Sargent's 83rd birthday. We miss and love you, Grandpa, every day since your pain ended 9 years ago.

Weather Update
It is 9:30pm here in Jersey and it has been snowing for about a half hour now. My area is supposed to get 8 - 12 inches overnight so I'm hoping my hubby doesn't have to drive all the way down to Fort Dix tomorrow, which is a 2 hour drive from our house. He won't know until morning so fingers crossed. But, it does make me wish Marshall was old enough to play in the snow. At least next year he'll be able to appreciate these snow storms and I can start telling him my weather horror stories growing up in Michigan. You know, when I had to walk to school uphill both ways barefoot...

Marshall Update
We are now able to regularly put Marshall to bed every night between 9:00 and 10:00 pm and he'll sleep a solid 5 - 6 hours. Lately he's been waking up around 3:30 am for a change and feeding. Some days he'll go right back to sleep when he's done and other days it will take us a couple hours to get him back down. I'm hoping that by the time I go back to work in 5 weeks that he'll be sleeping straight through until at least 5:00.

Weightloss Update
Today I was down 0.6lbs. I would have liked to be down at least a pound but any loss is a good loss as far as I'm concerned. I received one of my "Workout with Baby" DVD's yesterday so I'm going to definitely start that tomorrow. I'm hoping that once I start exercising again the weight will come off a little faster. In order for me to do my WII, I'll have to start getting up at 6:00 before Marshall does. Then, once I go back to work I would have to get up at 5:00 (ugh!). I wish we had a basement or rec room because then we could have the WII set up there and I wouldn't have to interfere with Freddy's evening television schedule.

Week 1
Goal 1: 0.6/13.8 lbs
Total Lost: 0.6/84 lbs

Happy Tuesday! And for those getting snow right now, be safe!

Oh yes - the snow is coming down here pretty good! My husband is on his way home from South Jersey ... I hope he gets home soon.
Julianna has a snowsuit, I am hoping to put her in it tomorrow and get some photos of her in the snow... we'll see how well that works out!
Marshall sleeps 5-6 hours straight? That's fabulous. Slowly that time grows and before you know it, it will be 10-11 hours. That is a beautiful thing! :)

Enjoy the snow! I hope your husband does not have to drive in this tomorrow morning.
