Well, I'm tired... but my fans will leave me if I don't update often, hahaha.....

We got Steph a new swing yesterday. It's very cute... brown and pink... it's a cradle swing... it goes both ways. Boy have they come a long way in 3 years. There's a netting around it... there's a starry light show, great music, and the best thing on earth... it runs off of electric. Do you know how many D batteries we went through with Jess and Jon???!!!?!??!?!?

I wanted to put Steph in it after it was built and take a picture, but she just wanted to go take a nap. But the other two kids had a blast helping Daddy build it... and they were dancing and really enjoying the light show... even without the baby in there, ahhaha.

I rocked yesterday on the elliptical... jogging 3.7-4mph... keeping up with the people on either side of me... if they can do it... I can do it.

Today went by fast. The worst part... late afternoon... I was trying to clean up the house and get dinner going, and Stephanie was having no part of it... normally my days go by uneventful... Steph takes a long nap in the morning, and a long nap in the afternoon. Today, she just wanted to eat and eat and eat. Every time I layed her down she cried her eyes out. I held her she was quiet... but then would get fidgety. She drank 3 bottles in 4 hours, can we say growth spurt?!

Nobody liked my dinner. I had chicken, brussel sprouts, mashed potatoes and pears... So I had Steph to contend with, and two other kids that wanted nothing to do with the food.... and you know what Jon does when he doesn't want something... all over the floor. I was so glad when Jeff got home (he had a dentist appt. after work). I was going to clean up, but he said go... I said I'd miss bedtime... he didn't care... So I went to work out (major stress reliever)... then I went grocery shopping.... And felt very good on the way home.

I'm eating vanilla yogurt with cranberries right now. I bought these cranberries because they say they are good for you. I've had cranberry juice... it's not too bad... cranberries by themselves YUCK.... bitter...... so I'm trying to mix them with the yogurt and it's still yuck. Oh well!

Tomorrow MIL is babysitting... we are going to pick out Jeff's glasses (men can't pick out their own, and I'm not looking at ugly glasses for 2 years)... then out to eat... I'm going to try and pick something healthy and just eat half of it... and then we might just christmas shop or something for an hour..... that's the game plan... Thurs. evening is my dentist appointment.... this weekend... ugh... I don't want to think that far in advance... I'm tired... and swear I will be off this computer soon and go to bed.....

That's all for now!
