All summer I tried to workout. All of July and August I didn't work out at all (BIG WASTE OF $).
When Merci started school I had NO excuse, because I workout (or try to work out) at the YMCA. Which is literally in the same parking lot as her school. So I have been pretty good. I usually do 2 times a week. So during the summer I was 124. Then when Merci went back to school I was 126. 2 weeks ago I was 124 again. YEAH. And than today....Let me tell you something, I have these pair of jeans and this weekend I noticed I had to keep pulling them up, I thought maybe I hadn't washed them in awhile and they were just stretching out. And then I notices my inner thighs don't rub together as much as they used to. And then I thought I was just imagining...Wanting all of this to happen. But today when I weighed myself I was 120!! I am doing it. I am so happy.
**I don't want to be a "skinny mini" who thinks she is fat. But I do have some areas that need toned up. After I had Merci the pounds melted off ( I was only 19 and 98 lbs then) this time with Ethan.... Well let me say ouch!
**** I just looked it up I was around 125 lbs when I was 26 weeks pregnant with Merci and only 21 weeks with Ethan. WOW. That is horrible.
But I am doing it! 6 lbs lost!! Without too much effort. Yeah me!

What do I want to say?
I am not sure why I am blogging. Not too much going on. No new pictures. Camping this weekend wasn't the best. Rained for over 24 hours so we left. We were party poopers! Kudos to those who endured the 3 1/2 days of rain!
So what is God trying to teach me lately?? I am not sure. I went to 48 hop and learned how to pray creatively. Somehow I have felt that playing with Ethan for hours has been my prayer the past week or so. Does this count??? Everytime I am going to sit down and read my notes from the prophetic prayer class and go deeper into the scriptures brought to us. I just get distracted by my handsome little man. Every time. I have felt like he just need his mommy time more lately.
Josh went up to get prayed over by Steve Sjorgen (sp?) on Sunday. He got an image that Josh was like one of those very fast boats that skip on top of the water. He felt like God had him on a fast track to HIM. How right on is that! So it is good to know this LONG, HARD journey is really getting us closer to HIM!
I have been burden by an unthinkable thing happening to a family who is semi close to us. It really PISSES ME OFF (yeah sorry not the best wording to use) that satan has plans to ruin families and people, and these people choose these curses to live rather than the blessing sitting right next to them. Pray for TRUTH TO BE REVEALED!!
Wednesday is my exciting day this week I get to go pick up Ethan's pictures!!! Why is he so cute?? Well that is all for now. Just needed to "journal" a few thoughts. I needed so me time on the computer away from the "upstairs"!! Bye!

Sneaky Sneaky Sneaky!
So we have been out of $ for sometime. Getting by on not much, but it hasn't been bad because we see that light at the end of the tunnel. We know we will get paid soon. So to too darn bad if our bills are late! But......Friday I was at Target. I had to buy diapers for Ethan and tights for Merci for the wedding, Oh yeah and a candy bar for me=) I was going to put it on my Tastefully Simple only credit card (which gets paid off as checks clear my account.) Well I was at the check out and I opened up my coupon holder and was in shock. There was a wad of $50 bills. I just took it out and counted it and stared at it for awhile, the cashier probably thought I was dumb or something, because I just keep looking at it and trying to figure out where it came from. Josh and I had previously decided not to ask to borrow any money we just wanted to see how God would bless us! Well He came through AGAIN. How awesome is this????? You always here this happening to people, but it happened to ME this time!!!!!! Thank You Lord for blessing whoever blessed us! It was ultimately YOU who impressed it on them to help us out. Thanks also to that Mr. Sneaky.!!
