It's Thursday!!!

Do you know what that means???? My Bubba comes home tonight!! Granted, it won't be until 11 or 12 tonight, but still. I'm SO glad he's going to be home. I'm sure in a few days I'll be complaining he's done something annoying, but isn't that how life goes? LOL

Emma is finally feeling better, thank God! That whole fever thing was so scary. She still has a bad cough but she's been fever free for over 24 hours now. Madelyn hasn't shown any signs of it so far. In fact, she's sitting on the floor bopping around to Imagination Movers right now. Such a cute little girl, I swear.

EXCITING NEWS FOR ME: I am now officially under 200 lbs!!!! You do not know how long it's been since I've been under 200. When I stop and think about it...I'm already lost about 60% of the weight I need to lose. That is so insane to me. I've lost 64 lbs in less than 3 months. Even with all the troubles I had in the beginning, I would so do it all over again. I am SO much happier, I have SO much more energy, I feel better about myself, I'm not afraid to go out in public because I'm too embarrassed by who I might see, and most of all, I feel like a "normal" person now. It makes me so happy when I can sit on the floor and play with the girls and not dread getting up. I'll have Darik take some pictures tomorrow when I get back from the hospital. I have to go for my 3 month blood work tomorrow morning and then I'm going to go grocery shopping...by myself! I don't think I've done that since Emma was born! LOL

Good ol' Madelyn slept until 7:45 this morning so she is one wound up little girl now! Maybe she's finally got this sleep thing down...only took her 11 months!

I am going to get my hair cut today while Emma's at school. Nothing fancy, same ol' same ol'. It just kills me that one day my hair is fine and the next it's all of a sudden too long. Craziness.

Well, I should go hop in the shower and wash the stank off. I need to clean the kitchen up too. That room just is never clean enough, I swear.
