While I like to blog and share, it just hasn't been getting done :( and all I can say is that the app I used crashed and they no longer offer it. I have looked around and nothing works, and I gave up and kinda forgot all about it. I can write up drafts and things but when I try to pull up pictures, which the majority are on my phone, things go haywire. Basically, I'm too lazy to take the time to use my computer. But we are still alive, and actually for it only being half a month through the year we have done a few things.
Drake hasn't even had a full week of school since winter break, there has been record amounts of snow here and so he has been enjoying that :) He got a full extra week, last week was only 3 days and so has this week. There have been so many Facebook posts about moms needing their kids back in school, but it's so much less stressful than getting him up and ready in the morning, I enjoy the days off as much as he does. This week is short due to the end of his 9 week period so the teachers go to school and plan.
Addyson has been going stir crazy. Her preschool is just 2 days a week and they canceled school every time the school district did. She went more than 4 weeks without going anywhere, it was hard on her and she asked me every day when she would get to go back. She would have totally been ready for kindergarten this year, it's interesting that she is soooooo interested in school, she reminds me of how much I loved to learn and go to school.
Lex and I just chill, on preschool days we carpool almost all day long. But those days are my favorite because we get one-on-one time. He definitely knows how much I love him, he is the most spoiled out of the kids. Carpool days are pretty busy and they fly by, which helps me get more done, I have to be organized.
Kade is working, this time of year is the slow time. He doesn't deliver as much because farmers are not needing as many fuel deliveries, because it's their play season. But this year PRB the company he works for got a contract and as long as there is snow and a need for plowing and de-icing they will be extra busy. He hasn't even gotten lunch brakes lately, it's just constantly driving. But that is what is nice about his job, he can eat on the go, and I can talk his ear off ALL DAY LONG. I do miss our lunch dates on carpool days, I miss seeing his face, and I love when he buys me food :)
I started a new challenge group last Monday, it is one where you get points for doing healthy things. Drinking water, eating servings of fruits and veggies, exercising, not eating after 8, losing or maintaining weight, logging a food journal. I love these kinds of challenges, investing a few dollars makes me stick things out. I am in it for the healthy habits, I'm already at a weight that I'm comfortable with, the focus on eating veggies, getting water, just does my body good. I'm hoping I continue to work and not start letting things slide, so far I'm pretty happy that I'm sticking to my goals.
That is how our year is going, hopefully you had a great holiday, and you are making 2017 a great year.
Happy NEW YEAR!
