Weekend Weather

Did anyone else love the weather as much as us.  I was really not meant to live here, but I will support my husband and stay.  I guess.  Even if it means crappy winters.  Well here are a few pictures of our weekend fun.

 These next 3 pictures below are so cute to me.  Brady wanted to take the Harley for a spin since it was only here for the weekend.  So Baine was on his bike and and Brady pulled up beside him.  Baine was wanting to race so the pictures are of them racing.

I went and bought Baine a kite from the Dollar store on Friday.  We came home and put it together and it didn't work.  Brady came home and tried to fix it and it broke.  Oops!  So Brady took Baine on Saturday to buy him a "better" kite.  Baine kept saying kite all day long and I didn't think he really knew what it meant but he was sure excited to fly it.  

Mike & Molly

So Brady and I watch the show Mike & Molly.  Ever heard of it?  It's pretty funny.  Crude at times, but what isn't these days.  Anyways we are watching it the other night and Brady says to me, "we had better be careful because we are on our way to looking like those two!"  If you haven't ever seen the previews or the show it's about an overweight couple.  They are pretty big too, to say the least.  Now I have always struggled with my weight.  What can I say, I like to eat.  In the 9th grade when I made the softball team and they told me to go get a physical, the doctor told me I was overweight then.  I couldn't believe it!  I didn't feel fat at all.  So I know this is my struggle that I'm going to have to deal with for the rest of my life.  I knew that then and I still know that now.  Our big problem at home is now that we have a kid and when it was winter it was just easier to stay at home.  So you find yourself eating earlier for the child and putting the child to bed early.  Well then you need a snack later.....right?  Wrong!  Well we ate our snacks anyways.

Well I don't want to be that Mom who is too hefty to play with her own kids.  I don't want to get type 2 diabetes from my own laziness and stupidity.  So here is to making a new life for my family.  I'm going to try to eat healthier and teach my own children to eat healthier.  No more giving myself a treat while Baine eats a apple!  :)  Embarrassing I know but it happens. Haha!  I would like to be a runner but that is going to have to take a lot of effort from me so I'm going to start with walking and weights.  I need to build some muscle. Especially since my shape-ups were kicking my a## yesterday!  Again, embarrassing I know.  I am embarrassed that I let myself get to this point but with some motivation and hopefully some dedication this will be the worst of it!  No more Mike & Molly at our house.  I don't need Brady to have a meltdown because he is so afraid of being overweight!  Fear can be a good thing.

Boise

I hope these pictures will load.  I don't know why my other ones aren't showing up.  They are showing up on my end so I don't know how to fix it.

We went to Boise last weekend to get out of town for a couple days.  We stayed with Alison at her apartment.  It was a ton of fun but we were ready to come home.  My little family was so so tired at the end.  I think Alison was a little pooped at the end too.  Being pregnant and she wasn't going to bed early or getting naps.
 Baine did really well in the car.  We were really impressed.  We borrowed a DVD player and took a few movies that he maybe watched 20 minutes of.  I went to Target before the ride home to buy a Backyardigans DVD but it was just as much as a movie so I couldn't bring myself to do it when he would only be watching it once.  I'm glad I didn't because on the way home he slept from Boise clear to Pocatello!   Yup he was THAT tired.
We did a lot of fun stuff!  We went to an Aquarium where you can feed and pet the fish.  There was a Octopus there which was really cool.  We went to the Zoo and Baine's favorite part was the Carousal.  Mine was the Giraffes, and Brady's was the Lions.  It was so fun to see Baine's expression when he saw real live animals.  He thought it was the coolest thing!
We also went to a pretty cool park the last day.  It was 60 degrees there!  Oh how I wish that was the case here.  I wanted to breakout my flip flops.  We also took the kids to a fast food play place everyday which was a little crazy.  When we went after the Zoo to eat Baine wanted to play so bad but was so tired he just would roll around on the ground of the play place.  At one point he was laying down by the shoes.  So funny!  I should of got a picture.
