Hi Guys! Sorry I wasn't here right away to blog and comment on yours. When we got back from our vacation, our daughter got sick with a strep throat and then I got the flu. Then my husband got the strep throat and a pink eye. What a wonderful way to start the new year!
I did gained 3 lbs while I was away but I lost all of that by now and I hit a new record of 138.0 today. I've been watching my food and I took my daughter to the park everyday to get some sunshine and air after being sick in the house all week. Playing with my daughter at the playground sure is a workout and I can see it through the scale today.
January and Febuary are my favorite months in Florida. The weather is warm and sunny almost everyday and we enjoy being outside more. So I have been on the computer less and outside playing. We have to enjoy it now because it goes by so fast before the hot weather starts coming back and we ended up staying inside most of the time with the AC on.
I've been busy planning a birthday party for my daughter in March. We have to reserve a spot in a park now because it goes out fast and when I reserved a spot yesterday, it was the last Saturday in March available. I was soo happy that I got the date I wanted and I felt like it was left open just for me.
We plan to have a BBQ and volleyball with some kids playing at the playground. I will have a Cinderella theme for my daughter and thinking of other ideas as well. This is the first birthday party we're doing for my daughter and I'm really excited about it.
I've been looking into preschool for my daughter as well and I went to tour a kids gym place and it was huge. My daughter wanted to start playing right there but they were done for the day and I'm trying to convince my husband to let her enroll 2 times a week. It's quite expensive but I think it's worth it for her. She loves to interact with other kids and she becomes bored easily at home. There's only so much I can do to entertain a 2 years old.
Well I will try my best to catch up on your blogs today. I know I have well over 200 EP blogs to read in my google reader. Hope everyone have a great Thursday.

Wow, congratulations on your new weight record! Sorry to hear the whole family got sick. Hopefully it's out of your systems by now and maybe you'll be less likely to catch something later this year? Here's hoping.
I hear the weather in Florida is crazy hot, like the second you step outside you're drenched in sweat. I hope you enjoy the cooler weather these days. Our weather has been warmer than usual lately. I am surprised we haven't really seen much snow in the Seattle area.
How great that you are 136! And how cool that you get to plan your daughters very first birthday party!! I remember those days very well!! So fun! Yea, I also remember shopping for preschool. Very involved process. Good luck!
