Sushi, YUM!

Today I decided to take the kids for a sushi lunch on our way to the Y. TT and I love the Mexican Rolls at our local sushi restaurant and we have been craving it for a while. So off we went. Poogie loves the white rice and edemame. We had quite the feast. I just can't believe that I never at sushi until last year. If you haven't tried it you should and if you have and didn't like it maybe you should try another kind.

I love to go with my hs girlfriends and we get several different kinds that way I get to try everything. So far the only thing I really don't like is raw tuna. It is too fishy.

Anyway, my hubby met us there after lunch and went to the Y with us. The kids were so happy to have him home and for him to see them swim.

I am still working out everyday to meet my weight loss goal. I am beginning to enjoy it. I can't believe that but I am. I will see if my hard work is paying off Monday when I weigh in. Have a great weekend.

Sleepless Nights + Busy Days =

One tired momma. I don't know what has happened with my children but for the last few weeks they have decided to wake me up several times a night for one thing or another. If they do let me sleep then we have had storm warnings or tornado warnings to keep me up.

My hubby is out of town for work and it makes for a very long day when I get about 3 and a half hours sleep. Plus today was the Y and I had to take my mom with me so she could go to the grocery store after. So I spent my afternoon walking around Kroger with her.

She doesn't shop as she goes down each isle she likes to walk from one side of the store to the other and then gripe about how tired she is. (I'll just let that go)

I did walk on the elliptical trainer today for 20 minutes. I was so sore from doing my Firm workout yesterday but I wanted to keep at it. I stepped on the scales this morning and I am down to 142! It is amazing how much difference 8 pounds can make in how you feel and how you look.

I guess I will look through my scrapbook magazines I got today in the mail and turn in early. Maybe I will sleep the whole night through, here's hoping!

Try'n something new!

We finally gave in and changed the English curriculum TT has been using all year. I purchased Easy Grammar 4 and 5 grade used from a friend and hope it makes English a little more enjoyable. We will start the first lesson tomorrow. I am hoping for the best.

I spent the day planning for this week. Poogie is moving along in her Math U See. I had her decimal street sheet laminated last week and colored and laminated her numbers for the number game today. She loves using the blocks and playing the games. I am so glad I decided to finish out the year with Math U See.

I am constantly making changes to fit the needs of my kids and I love that I can do it. I am sending off this week for our butterfly larvae. I know we will enjoy watching them change and grow.

Hope you all have a great week.
