Gonna give myself a pat on the back


Ok, so after many a year of coming up with excuses and dodging the work out bullet I have joined a gym! We had a new YMCA open up right by our house so Wayne and I went over and checked it out and decided to give it a whirl. This of course means that Wayne will have to give up his current gym (which is going to be tough since it has a cafe, salon, etc.. in it) but hey thems the breaks! LOL So far I have been trying (that being the key word) to go each night after work, I figure that is a huge step considering for the last 34 years of my life I have not gone at all! I have to say that I am pretty proud of myself for going as much as I am and not chickening out (Wayne has played a big part in this as he makes me go with him). Truth be told I have this weird phobia of gyms, but I am trying to work through that and go anyway and so far I am doing pretty darn good if I do say so myself.
So, I guess we will see how my will power holds out through the Holiday season, hopefully well so I can eat all those yummy Thanksgiving and Christmas treats! Mmmmm my mouth is watering already....

Ultrasound Photo Updates

Ok, I turned the photos sideways so that it kinda looks like they are sitting up. (Seems to be the only way my mom can tell so I thought it might help others as well) We are just shy of 24 weeks.... Only about 12 weeks left to go WooHoo!! Wow some days it just feels like it is flying by!!! Guess I better get crackin on the room! We went for a check up today and I was telling the doc that I thought baby B was just kickin up a storm, but she informed me that it could actually be either one because both of their feet are right next to each other. Baby B is definitely the one cutting off my air supply though... sitting right under my breast bone it feels like!! Baby A is sitting farther down so my bladder gets hit with that one. LOL The first photo is Baby A (Shake) I thought it was a nice profile, we had another one of a wave (always seems to be doing that!) but it was a little blurry. Second photo is Baby B (Bake) sucking a thumb!

.......Shake N Bake........

These might be difficult to understand but we wanted to share them anyway, they kinda look like little aliens right now. LOL Baby B (aka: Bake) was being very difficult today and did not want to be photographed much. Baby A (aka: Shake) was really liking the photos and we were able to see a lot more of him or her. Everything is looking good with me and the babies! We go back for another ultrasound in 3-4 weeks. :) Baby B (aka: Bake) squishing its head and trying to hide. Baby A (aka: Shake) waving to us

Almost a week...

Image
It has been almost a week since I said Goodbye... Last Saturday was probably the second hardest day of my life so far, it was the day that I had to say goodbye to my beautiful Neon of 13 1/2 years. My mind was and has been flooded with so many memories since that day.  I got Neon through the Guide Dog program to raise as a seeing eye dog.  He was special because they had brought him in from NY so that he would become a breeder with the CA program.  I remember the day I received the news that my puppy was here and I was getting a golden!  I arrived at the puppy ceramony Dec. 21, 1997 and fell in love for the first time in my life!!! Neon was only 8 weeks old when I got him.  He went everywhere with me... movies, restaurants, college, etc.. until he was 18 months old at which time I had to return him to the program (and I thought I would never see him again).  I received a call from the school about 6 months later letting me know that they were releasing Neon from the program because of
