I had a wonderful weekend. Way too fast though, but that's what happens. Now I'm gonna get back to my routine, running, yoga, looking for a job. Mr. Skinny's grandma's financial advisor who called me a few weeks ago called me again while I was grocery shopping. He told me to call him back and that's exactly what I did once I got home, and he's not there. I still haven't heard from Wells Fargo. I'm going to call the store tomorrow and see if I can get anywhere with them. This is getting ridiculous.
It's also really hard because, like I mentioned a few weeks ago, I'm trying to figure out what God wants me to do. I also mentioned that I was programmed to be a mom, that's what I've wanted to do my whole life. Mr. Skinny and I both felt like God was telling us to start our family back in February when Mr. Skinny's grandfather died. It's always on my mind, of course, but we really got talking about it. Now with him having a pretty good job, it's talked about even more. He wants to get our credit cards paid off, which I know is a smart idea, but is that really what we're supposed to do? I'm kind of feeling like me having this much trouble finding a job is God's way of saying to start our family now. Mr. Skinny is trying to deny it though, even though I know He feels the same thing. It's almost like we're hoping for an unplanned pregnancy (even though we're on the pill), so that we know for sure that God wants us to have a baby. Sorry about the serious topic, but with these two faces all weekend, my baby fever is on HIGH!
I seriously spoiled them both rotten. The baby was in my arms just about all weekend and I loved every minute of it. He's adorable, they're both adorable and I can't wait to have my cousin's life of a stay at home mom.
I ate too much, but not a excessive amount. I tracked everything to the best of my ability, though. I ate my oatmeal for breakfast and tried to fill up on fruits (with cream cheese fruit dip) and veggies (dipped in ranch) :) I tried though, right? I ran with my cousin on Saturday night, and we took a long walk on Sunday night, so even though I ate wayyy too much this weekend, I kind of counter-acted it with some exercise. I also went for a run this morning, but it was too hot to do a real run, and it's not my normal day anyways. I'm working on it. I'm planning on getting up tomorrow around 7am to run so I can beat the heat.
I'm off to cook some dinner! Hope you all have a fabulous night!

What was your highlight of the weekend?
What's been on your mind lately?
I think you did a great job with your eating over a holiday weekend. I think back to when I wasn't "dieting" and all the things I mindlessly put in my mouth. It sounds like you practiced mindfulness with your eating and allowed yourself to loosen up a bit for the weekend as well. That is a good balance to help you stay on track for the long haul. And now you are home and getting back on track! Yay! The highlight of my weekend was a bike ride with my hubby! I LOVE biking!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with on the baby fever. You'd think having one would make it better, but I still want more babies! :)
