Today was probably the last day I have to gallivant around town with my hubby while the kids are in school. Unless is rains one day next week...cross your fingers for me!
He was all set to go finish up a project he was working on all by himself since our worker was off today. The he took me out to breakfast, I went to run some errands and when I got home he was here!
We decided we were going to go buy an iPad, but no such luck...all sold out in Ohio...except for the bottom of the line one which doesn't even have 3g...so we are now on a few waiting lists and will probably have to wait about a month. Oh well.
We came home and had some good conversation about the business and different things we needed to communicate about.
And I even snuck in a good cardio and ab workout at the gym, while he ran a few errands.
He even picked up the kids from school for me!
Dinner is in the oven and then it is off to Merci's softball game, then bedtime and then off to our friends house for the weekend in the morning!
Talk to you soon!
Have a great Memorial Day weekend, don't forget why we celebrate this day!

Results are great!!
Actually good results are great...not bad ones=)
Today is day 22 the gym has been open and that I've been working out...and I obviously have not been to the gym all those 22 days. I think my average is 3 days a week. With sore muscles, field trips with my kids and busy weekends I just can't make it everyday...
I have had 4 workouts with a trainer, and Ill be on my own for now. I will have to start bringing the kids with me so Ill have to pay for the babysitting room, so I don't want to spend the extra money on that AND for a trainer...he wasn't that hot..haha;)
But anyway...back to results...I have lost 1.2% body fat in those 22 days...That is really good!! I am super happy and excited to keep working out hopefully a bit more frequently as well! I can see me in that 2 piece already;) For that vacation in November, right honey??
So my advice to you all out there is to stop looking for
weight loss supplements and workout!!
I am a super lazy person and I have asthma, bad knees and a hurt shoulder and I can do it! You can too!!!!
GO ME!!!

6 more days
The count is down to 6 more days of school...yikes...I have no time left...it is here...Summer break. My break is over!
I feel so sad and happy at the same time that my baby boy is going to be done with Kindergarten.
Kids sound so young and little when you tell people "My son is in Kindergarten" But when you have to say 1st grade, that just doesn't sound so little and young anymore=( They sound so grown up.
Like I've mentioned, our school doesn't do a graduation or anything, but for his accomplishment, I want to treat him to something special. I am hoping to get his friend to be able to sleep over next Friday night and a treat and welcome to Summer vacation (Im going to do this for Merci too)...but I also have something else for my little Kindergartner!!
I have on of THESE to give to him after his last day of school!! I'm excited to give this to him, and hopefully he will share one of the surprises with his sister! Not only am I excited to give him this but I am also excited to be able to educated my kids on traditions of other countries! Can't wait to see what he thinks! Im sure he will want to keep the cool cone and fill it up with some of his toys or more likely since he is a boy, use it as a sword;)
This cool gift is a KinderCone, a big cone shaped box filled with little goodies for my boy! In Germany and Austria they call them Schultute's, They are given on the childrens first day of school in 1st grade!
I peeked!! Inside the Kindercone is a plush toy Karli, the main character in the journal that is also inside, to keep track of all the memories of 1st grade! There are also some pencils and temporary tattoos! I'm also going to add a few little things of my own!
"I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of KinderCone and received KinderCone samples to facilitate my review. Mom Central also sent me gift certificate to thank me for taking the time to participate."

Much going on over here...
We have been busy with so much over here.
Baseball season has started, Merci is playing softball this year and Ethan is playing Tball again. We have at lest 2 games a week, last week 3 (thank God the 4th got canceled due to rain.)
On top of that Josh has been working on many projects around here. He built a fence for us to enclose the yard for the puppy and so we can put up a pool this year. He also started and almost finished the kids play house (with storage for outside toys underneath) we've been talking and dreaming about for years. The kids are super excited! On top of that he is working on the lighting in the basement, installed a shelf along one of Merci's walls and then I decided to rip out the carpet in the office as well...
And of course a bunch of stuff in between too!
