The never-ending diet...

to recap:
November 16, 2009 - 199 lbs.
February 10, 2010 - 193 lbs.
July 30, 2010 - 187 lbs.!

I gave up ALL soda as of June 27, 2010. (In the interest of COMPLETE honestly, I did have ONE root beer on July 13th.) I have become a big fan of Glaceau Vitamin Water Zero. It has zero calories. And it is naturally sweetened so it doesn't have that funny after-taste most diet drinks have.

The smart aleck doesn't fall far from the tree.

Yesterday we learned that a boy from our church fell off the swing set in his backyard and broke BOTH his arms. So I gave the girls each a piece of card stock and asked them to make him a "get well card." After about three minutes, Ariel declares herself finished and I ask to see her masterpiece. It read:

To: Nathan
From: Ariel
I feel bad 4 U. And I bet it is hard to hold this card. Hope you are ok? Bye. From, Ariel

So, I burst into laughter and promptly gave her a new piece of card stock and told her to start over. I blame her father.
