Well, I can't believe it is Friday already...just feels like yesterday I was getting back from my outstanding weekend in DC. What a week...Matthew is about out of the 6 month clothes...they are just really tight after snapping so I think we are going to have to go shopping for a few things...we are about at the end of our hand-downs and while Matt is ok in shorts/pants that are 6 months so we can still get some use out of that...sleepers and onesizes are just not going to cut it...So Jay is going to hit some stores to pick up just a few things, maybe a few things to wear to church and daycare...he can basically hang out in his diaper with me...I don't care how he looks but with the weather outside cooling off and well, having to go to church and look slightly presentable, we have got to get a few things...luckily we have quite a few 12 month stuff so I am sure we will be packing away the 9 month stuff before we know it.
Matthew got his 2nd flu shot yesterday and he was such a champ...didn't realize the needle was in and out, and looked at me like WTF mom, what was the pinch....you woke me up from my nap for that??? We made our appointment for our 9 month well baby on Nov 18th...so basically I have till then to get the last 4 lbs off...yep, 9 months to put it on and well almost 9 month months to get it off...I am down to my last 4 lbs and then of course like everyone I would love to get another 5 or so vanity pounds off...So close!!! I can definitely tell a huge difference in the last 8 lbs...back on August 21st, I did my first spring tri in a long time...and my bike time was about 38-40 minutes for 11.5 miles...and my run time was about 30 minutes...I say about b/c I was one of the lucky 100 or so that the chip didn't pick up splits for...anyway my total time as 1hr 16 minutes...and I won the Athena Category....the +150lb girl category...they just say Athena to be nice...but Sunday I am going to do the same race course and the last week or so since I have shed 8 lbs I can feel that it is going to be a good race...plus the cooler weather also helps...so my goal is to bike the course hopefully around 36 minutes to run the 5k in about 27 minutes...so basically my total time goal is 1:12:00...can't control my swim b/c it is a pool swim and you just never know with seeding how that is going to....but I am feeling good...
Also taught my first spin/yoga class yesterday and it felt really good as well so all in all, I am beginning to feel good and when I look in the mirror I am beginning to see a less puffy/swollen me...so almost there.
So that is what we have planned for Columbus day weekend, Jay is on-call so working Saturday and Monday morning, but we have to hit a few stores to get a few new items of clothing for Matt, I am racing and of course watching LSU on Saturday afternoon.
