Jesus Sneezes

One day earlier this week my daughter said "Jesus sometimes sneezes and coughs". I said "Whaaaaat?" Then she sang the song that she had learned in preschool that day entitled "May Jesus Bless You". :-)

I'm REALLY really REALLY having a weight problem. Even though I felt that I had exercised more, my last doctor's appointment I was 5 lbs heavier than the time before. That really stinks. I have been more stressed out lately, so maybe I've been eating more or something. Too many sweets. My doctor recommended the South Beach Diet, so I'm going to check out the book from the library and see if it's something that might help me. Sigh. Gotta bloom down!

I'm now going to post on my Southern girl blog. I haven't posted their in a long time, but something came up at work about the way I pronounced a word. I've stayed away from that blog a while, but might like to start posting there again.

Blooming Down

"Mommy, you need to bloom down." That's my daughter's invented phrase for "losing weight". I think that's a sweet way to put it. :-) I guess she thinks I'm all bloomed out like a HUGE flower. I'm slowly working on getting more exercise. I don't see many results yet, but I know it's the right start. I'm feeling tired from the extra exercise. I hope that I'll get used to it and eventually feel more energized!


MG lost her first baby tooth today!!! She's only 4 and 1/2, so I wasn't expecting it so young. We noticed last week that it was loose, and it scared us at first. Then I saw the adult tooth already coming in. She was so excited tonight because the tooth fairy will visit! MG also played her first soccer game on Saturday. It was so much fun and so funny too. MG managed to kick the ball several times which was wonderful even though she was kicking it to the opposing team's goal! They were cute and had fun.

It's harder to have time to write these days. It's 1:19 AM right now, so I'd better go to sleep. I hear MB stirring. He has a cold and has been tossing and turning all night.
