It's been awhile!

Sorry guys! I know it's been awhile. I've got a few things to write about...so here I go.

Kayla had her tonsils and adenoids out this morning. We had to be at the hospital at 6:30am and her surgery started at 8. Dr. Giberson came out to talk to us around 8:50. Everything went well, she's in quite a bit of pain but she's sleeping right now so that's good.

On the weight-loss front...I stayed the same this week which was VERY disappointing. I walked a total of 30kms this past week so I assumed that would really help with the weight loss. I stayed on track all week too...not sure the reason but it made me want to binge badly! Jason just left to get us Wendy's :( Hopefully next week the scale will show better results.

I'm heading back to work next Wednesday. I'm excited but nervous at the same time. Well that's about it...

It's been a few days!

Where do I start...the kids had their last skating lesson of the year on Wednesday night. Jacob and Kayla moved up a level, but Eliza didn't. Which means Kayla is ahead of Eliza now! I told Kayla not to rub it in her words..."I won't Mommy, but I sure wish I could!!" No rink until October now, I'm actually going to miss it!

Today I'm getting ready for Kayla's 8th birthday party. It's very hard to believe that my "Baby Girl" is going to be 8! She's having some friends from school sleepover and is VERY excited! Jason not so much!! I've been invited to a friends house for lunch, should be nice. One of my girlfriends just got back from Mexico so I'm very anxious to hear all about her trip.

On the weight-loss subject, I was down 2lbs this week. I'm wearing jeans today that were a little too snug before..yay!!

Update on the Skor Cake

It wasn't as good as I expected it to be. I thought it would be gooey and very yummy, but it definitely wasn't. I don't think I'll make it again.

Snow Day, Kijiji and lots more!

Unbelievable! The kids had last Tuesday off because of a snow storm and today's another snow day for them....it's the 30th of March for goodness sakes. They're forecasting 25 cm of snow...YuCk!!!!

Well...I posted my very first item on Kijiji and it sold within 1hr Wooohooo!! The kids and I are going around the house trying to find more stuff to sell, it's kind of a fun way to spend a snow day!

The Ice Shows went very well. Jacob was pretty tired at the end of the night. They all did a fantastic job! Kayla's little best friend won Champion of the Year, that was very exciting! They have 1 more night of skating where they'll be tested and after a potluck. I'm going to make Poppyseed Chicken again it's so yummy!

Eating wise...I'm not doing too bad, every day's a challenge. I just want to eat a big bag of chips with onion dip! Willpower, willpower, willpower!

Ice Show Day!!

Today is the Ice Show...yay! Eliza, Kayla & Jacob are all skating. Jacob is going to be Bob the Builder, and the girls are Oompa Loompa's from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I'll post pictures later! Their costumes are really cute...(of course they are...I made them!!)

Last night was Girls Night Out at my church and I ate way too much fattening food! I just got back from a nice long walk in attempting to reverse any damage I did last night! Back on track today!!

Gotta go get organized for the day!!

Oops...

Not sure how to work this thing quite yet...but here's a picture of the Skor Cake without the Cool Whip on the top....

Welcome to my Blog!

I'm starting another attempt at blogging! This is my 3rd attempt. They say 3 times a charm! I'm going to blog about my life with my husband and my 3 children. I love to cook and prepare meals, I don't love baking so much...something I'm working on! I've just recently started a weight loss journey by going to a Nutritionist. I'll probably blog about that too!

Tonight my Ladies Group at my church (WoW--Women of Worth) is having a Comedy Night & Pot Luck. I can't wait to sit back and laugh and enjoy the evening with my friends. Gotta go get those curlers in my hair! Something else new that I'm trying!!
