What do you think of turbo jam and/or hip hop abs? Did you order from beachbody and have success?
I need something I can do at home while they sleep since they go down at 7:30 pm. I don't want to have to drag equipment out since they might wake up (off chance but it does still happen).
Sooo, Sam has been doing her army crawling for a couple of weeks while her sister Lori seems to like doing downward dog? All of a sudden I go to pick them up at daycare and Sam crawled over to me with Lori following! Oh my gosh I want to cry all over again. I missed their first crawl but it was still amazing to me.
I started back on weight watchers yesterday and this morning weighed in at 192.7 but will not update until Mon. as usual. I found morningstar asian burger thingys that are really good. I'm in shock b/c I am not a vegetarian and have tried veggie burgers in the past and couldn't stand them. Too dry etc. This one is fabulous and only 1 pt!!! I also found Dr. Praeggars sweet potato (1pt) and potato pancakes (2pt). Another yummo!
Since I've stopped trying to lose? Wow, I didn't realize it had been that long. Good news, I haven't gained. I'm so tired!!!!!! Between taking care of the kids driving an hour to and from work etc. Yuck. Can I quit?? Will someone pay me to stay home with my kiddos and workout?
I've also been trying to research the whole vaccine situation. Urgghhh. I talked to the ped today at the girls 9m appt. about the whole aborted fetus cell thingy. She stated they did use those at one point but now it's pretty much cord blood etc. She did mention that some companies are using cloned cells!!!! Cloned - I don't like that.
She did support my right to choose for my own kids which I appreciated and gave me a list of websites that will help in my research although I'm pretty sure they are all pro-vaccine. She did agree with me about certain vaccines and not understanding the reasoning for these such as hep-a and rotavirus. Hello the worst thing with rotavirus is dehydration??? I think I can get my kids to drink something. So we'll definitely say no to that one and Gardisil (when the time comes).
Oh my gosh!!!! I had no clue. I'm doing research trying to decide whether or not to continue vaccinating my kids. Holy cow, I came across this from the cdc's own
website:http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/pinkbook/downloads/appendices/B/excipient-table-1.pdf
If you look up human diploid tissue culture, mrc-5 and wi-38 on the internet it is cells from aborted babies! Not to mention all the other weird stuff they put in there such as formaldehyde, chick kidney cells, calf skin, mouse brain?
Can we say at this point, the girls will not be getting any further vaccines.
On other news, somehow I'm down .4 lbs even though I've eaten like theres no tomorrow. Seriously, - candy bars every day, pizza, burgers from Wendys etc. - Go figure.
last weekend. Tooo cute. Pf's by the way are prefolds. Yes, I cloth diaper twins and love it (as previously mentioned.) I'll have to upload a pic of Lauren I took of her in it. And yeah, I'm down from last week about 2 lbs.!!!!
Oh my gosh. So I ordered it a couple weeks ago and read the instructions etc when it arrived. Looked up folds on the internet and went with the origami. Insertion was fine last night. However, removal this morning was pissing me offf!!!! I couldn't get the darn thing out. I was so afraid I would have to go to the urgent care center and say ummmm, I tried this new feminine product and ummmm, I need help removing it. Urgghh, how embarrassing would that have been. Sooo, I'm freaking out in the shower just imagining myself at the dr's while hubby is trying to ask me all kinds of questions etc. I thought I had remembered that you had to break the suction so that's what I had been trying to do the whole time. Apparantly all I had to do was use my internal muscles to help get it out. Soooo, that was the start to my morning. How about yours?
Both my munchkins are cutting teeth again - yeah. Poor babies! I just ordered some amber teething necklaces from:hyenacart.com/inspiredbyfinn/
Can't wait for them to get here! I also ordered a matching moms necklace, maybe it'll help with my migraines/headaches :o). This is the one I got:
Oh lord, I pray these work. I hate drugging up my girls with tylenol! Who knew I would turn out to be a semi-crunchy mom and . . ..getting more crunchier (as possible in our little town).
O.k. I know it's not my official weigh day, that's monday. However, I just had to put in my little 196.0 b/c it's just so nice to be down! I seem to lose more when I eat a slight bit more? For instance I started eating what I thought was a 1pt bag of mini movie theater popcorn and I started losing more this week. Well, turns out that 1 pt bag is actually 4 pts!!!! Some days I had two bags and only counted 2 pts instead of 8! Plus, this past weekend I went point free and ate what I wanted (within moderation).
As far as my girls:
I'm starting to truly believe they are identical and the ob was full of it when he told me 2 placentas, 2 sacs = fraternal. I've since read that most ob's will tell you this and the fact is that 1/5 of all twins with those stats are actually id. I can easily tell them apart in "real life". However, when I go through pics I'm starting to have a hard time iding them, lol. They are starting to look more and more alike - go figure. They still don't allow me time to exercies, with their schedule, my work day, diper laundry, clothes laundry etc. Hopefully once it's starts to stay light out and it's warmer the girls and I can go for jogs after their first evening bottle :o).
They are growing sooooo fast. I actually miss the newborn stage: My sexy man and Sam.
O.k so after my dh vent I decided I can't make him change etc etc. I can only change the way I look at things and that can only happen through Him - b/c I know I sure can't do it! I'm too tired and exhausted to have a good outlook. My goal is to start praying more with His help as I feel too tired to do even that 
. I called my Pastor and asked for his prayer for my situation and told him I planned on giving the situation to the Lord and will be trying to change my attitude etc.
So far I have my good moments and my bad moments. But hey, at least a few good moments are getting in there, right?
As far as dieting, I tend to take the weekend off b/c it's much harder to stay OP with Dh and the 2 rug rats full time. I think it's actually helping my weight loss as I weighed in at 196.5 this morning! Wahooo.
My girls are getting into that stranger fear stage and they are getting very attached to mommy! They don't want me to leave the room unless I can keep them within site or they get upset. Sam is starting to play with her food or well has been. She loves to blow her peas all over me, oh what fun. I have to fight laughing b/c I don't want to encourage it but she makes the absolute funniest faces. Lauren always looks wide eyed and innocent like "who, me?". Urggghhh, they are growing soooo fast.
I honestly feel like I have three kids. Dh and I have been fighting/arguing since last summer right after the girls were born. He was working and I obviously was at home with the girls. A couple weeks after their birth he decides he doesn't want to help at night when they wake up to eat (the were bf and ff as I couldn't supply enough) so he was physically able to help. I couldn't take it for long. I looked like a walking zombie - literally. So after intervention with the Pastor dh started helping out again. It is still hard to get him to clean up after his big hairy german shepard who likes to carpet the dining/kitchen floors - ewwww. It's his dog, clean it up!!!!! Plus, it's just unsanitary. I don't think he's given either of the dogs a bath in months! I gave up and gave my boxer one recently b/c I couldn't take the stench anymore. Hello!!!!! I've got two infants to take care of, cloth diapers to wash, feeding, clothes to wash. Did I mention that I'm the one that take them to and from daycare, drives about 1 hr each way and works a full time job. Right now, all dh has is school!!! Granted it's BLET but still. He can't take the trash out without being asked? Or sweep the freakin floors to clean up after his nasty stinky hairy dog? Is it too much to ask that he rinses and puts the few dishes that are dirty in the sink each night? There's not a lot of dishes as I don't have time to cook so I eat frozen dinners - one dirty fork or spoon for me and the girls dirty bottles from daycare etc.
Last night dh throws this little comment at me: the instructor said this would happen, you'd work 12 hour shifts and then get home to a nagging wife asking why you didn't take the trash out. Ummm, am I missing something? Does taking the trash out really tax a grown adult male so much? What does he think I work? 6 am - 6 pm getting ready for work, going to work, coming back from work and daycare and then 6 pm - 8/9 pm taking care of daughters/laundry/feeding/cleaning etc. I think that equates to more then 12 hours or is my math wrong? I'm so sick of his poor me attitude - and yes I still love him. I just want him to grow up!
