Some Happenings

-We had a lectureship at the church I attend this week. Chloe Jo was good every night except for the last one. She cried during the whole second lesson! Ugh. It was horrible. We don't have a children's church or anything so I've been trying to train her to be quiet during the lessons and she does really well for the most part. Sometimes she gets rowdy and I have to take her to the nursery, but she really is doing well. My goal is for her to be able to sit quietly through the whole service by age 2 so we are doing really good! And yes, I know I probably expect too much from a baby!

-None of my items have sold on Etsy. I'm a little disappointed about that, but not surprised I guess. I wouldn't buy hair bows online normally so I don't know why I thought other people would. Actually I do know why. My friend bought a couple online so I thought maybe others really would. Nope. At least not mine. But, that's okay because I am going to try to sell them in a store here. I think they might sell better if people can touch them and maybe buy them as a treat for their little ones. I'm excited about it. I'm going to go by a store today that is like the one I am going to participate in and make sure it is definitely something I want to do. I'm excited about trying this! Hopefully I'll be able to make some money with it!

-I have walked 10 miles so far this week and am going to go for a walk as soon as I get this post done. I am on day 19 of The Shred and am feeling good about everything this week. I've been really watching what I eat and am hoping for good results on Monday. I did take some of the advice from my last Shred post and took my measurements so if I gain again, I can at least measure and see if anything is happening. I know my endurance has improved a lot since I started The Shred!

-Russell and I are going on a date tomorrow evening....without Chloe Jo! We haven't been on a date since before she was born. I know that most of you think that is horrible, but it does not bother us. I want to be with my baby and since she is a good napper/sleeper, we get alone time together. Grampy and G-Jo are going to watch her for us while we go to Red Lobster (my favorite!). Yum!

-Russell let me order a pair of tennis shoes from Curves for Mother's Day. They are like the Skechers Shape Ups, but half the price. Hopefully I will like them!

-I think it is going to rain so I better get to my walk before I lose my chance! Hopefully it will hold off until Chloe Jo and I get back!
