5 weeks and a ton more to go!

I had to quit jogging for health reasons...My thighs were rubbing together so much my underpants caught on fire. I saw this on a website and couldn't stop laughing. Of all the excuses that people come up with (me being one of them) to not exercise. Today is my 5th week on this weight loss journey and I have lost another 3lbs, a total of 18! Sweet, I am now a little over half way to my goal.

2 more down!

Well it's Monday again and I have lost another 2lbs. I have now lost a total of 15lbs. It's a big loss for me but yet I have a long way to go.

The next Hannah Montana

Madison is always singing and her favorite place to sing is in the shower. This day I thought it was so funny so I got the camera. Sorry its sideways, I need to figure out what way to hold the camera when recording video.

Another 2 bite the dust.

Well today is Monday and the day I weigh in day. I lost another 2lbs, that makes a total of 13. I guess staying away from the Easter candy paid off. Another week and hopefully a few more pounds.

The night before Easter... and Easter day!

The night before Easter and all through the house, not a kids would hold still, not even..... the dog. We had so much fun coloring the 5 dozen eggs, I know that sound like a ton but Darren and the kids have already ate all but 5 eggs. After Sadie got done coloring her eggs she got out the plastic ones and put them in the egg carton. She played for 30 min with them.


EASTER MORNING...
The kids got us up at 7:30 and could not wait any longer, the Easter Bunny hid the baskets, and mom and dad hid the eggs with money in them. They also got new swimming suits and a few small toys.


After church we went over to Great grandpa and grandma Slaugh's (Grandma Judy's mom) house for a B.B.Q. I forgot to take my camera. The kids had another egg hunt with candy and money. Grandpa and Grandma Aardema gave the girls dresses, Cole got a new outfit, and Sadie got a doll house for her little people play set. Thanks to everyone for the fun Easter!

The MOM song!

This is so funny! My sister sent it to me and told me that all she could think about watching this was me. I have to say, I see my self too! Oh, when its over, don't hit the stop button their is a bad add on it, just hit the pause button.

Go White Sox!

Yes its that time of year again. I just love baseball season, going to the game in 45 degree weather, sitting on cold metal benches, bundling up in everything but your snowsuit (not a bad idea for next game), and most of all kids crying because it is "too cold". But with all that said, it was a great game last night. Cole got to play 3rd base(not in the outfield, for once) and he did so good, he also got up to bat 2 times and hit both times and made it all the way to home plate before the inning was over. I now can't wait to go to another game, and this time I just might be in my snowsuit. Oh, and in the pictures if you cant tell, Cole has to go to the bathroom so bad he left right in the middle of the game. I don't know why but this happens every game, it has becoming very funny.

Early Easter with Grandma and Grandpa Thomas

This Sunday we had Easter with Darren's mom and dad because they are going out of town to see Darren's brother Lance and his family. The kids had a blast, Kathy put money in the eggs and then had candy hidden. The kids went for the money then they went back for the candy(Sadie went for the candy first). Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for the fun Easter Party!

Easter at Grandma and Grandpa Wilson's

We had Easter early this year with my mom, Why? I don't really know. But we had a lot of fun. Grandma Connie had doughnuts and hot chocolate, and a really big egg hunt for the kids. After the egg hunt we went to my sister Collene's house for a BIG sleepover. Their was 5 mommy's and 14 kids, I love getting together with my sisters, staying up till 3am, playing games and
Rockband. Good times girls!

I will do it!

A few of my friend have been blogging about their weight loss and they are doing great! Reading their blog has help motivate me in to doing my own. I started a little over 2 weeks ago, I am counting my calories and exercising for 60min. every day. I weigh my self on Mondays and I have also measured myself. In the last 2 weeks I have lost 11 pounds, I have lost 1inch on my stomach, 1inch on my butt, and 5inches on my chest(what is up with that). I feel so much better about my self and I have so much more energy. It's going to be a long road but well worth it.

April fools day fun!

What a great April fool day! This year Darren thought he would get me back from last year, and he did a great job. It was about 9:30am and I was doing my daily workout on the Elliptical, when I got a phone call from Darren's Boss.

Meg: hello
Boss: I Meg this is Rick Stubbs, Darren's boss
Meg: Oh, hi
Boss:I just wanted to let you know their has been an accident at work and Darren is on his way to Jordan Valley Medical. I guess they were messing around and something happened. Don't worry the our Insurance will cover everything.
Meg: WHAT, WHAT, I DON'T UNDERSTAND!(my heart rate was already up from my workout and now I thought I was going to pass out, I started crying)
Boss: Oh, by the way APRIL FOOLS! Here is Darren.

I couldn't even talk, I was stunned and crying my eyes out. By that time Darren had got on the phone and was laughing, I had to hang up till I could calm my self down. What makes this prank so real for me is that their has been things happening at work the has but Darren's life in danger. So when I got this call it was all but fake. But thanks to Darren it made the kids April fools a good one. Oh, I almost forgot, when Darren got home he keep the funny pranks going with my sister and his Mom. Best April fools Day ever.
