Wednesday Update

Good morning!

Eric and I both lost a pound last week. I have now lost 14 pounds and Eric is at a loss of 12 in 9 weeks. My sister bought a bunch of clothes in my new size that she got on clearance. I LOVE having new/new to me clothes that fit. It was getting silly to keep hiking up my pants.

We had a great time with Heidi and her family. They are going back home today. Emma cried last night because she was so sad to see Abby go. Braden tried to console her with "Don't worry Emma. We are going to Idaho and we'll get to play their Wii then." Yes, it was a classic man/woman miscommunication. Braden, as noted, really enjoyed the Wii that they brought with them. Yesterday, we went to IKEA. I think Heidi is hooked. She thought that the prices would be much more expensive than they really are. I think it's a good thing that IKEA is more than 30 minutes away or I would be there more often. Last night, we went to Los Hermanos for dinner and we went to Jumpin Jacks after that. The kids all had a great time. Adam even convinced me to go on some of the inflatables with him.

I am trying to stay home this morning. There is a great sale at Albertson's this morning, and I'm going to go to it, but our new computer parts are arriving some time today, so I need to stay close to home.
