14 more days

I can't wait to see my boys again. Julian still calls everyday to check on them and to get daily updates. Julian's mom says the boys are doing great and having an awesome time. Jealous is one of the words I have to describe my feelings...lol. I want to be sharing in all their adventures so I can feel/see what they are doing. Diego is talking more. He knows how to say "grampa" and "gramma". It is so cute when he does that I tear up.

So we are still being productive at home. We bought two sitting chairs last weekend when we went to Garden Ridge. They were onsale for $99 each from $169. They are leather like (I don't think they are real leather though) and they look just like the ones I was going to buy at IKEA but these will be easier to clean. Just wipe off and the other ones were canvas so I would have had a mess on my hands if the boys or Julian spilled or dropped food on them. And we got the bedding for Gabriel's two beds. One will be Superman and the other Spider man. We still have to get Diego a new bedding set. They have a Mickey Mouse set at Wal*mart but I can't believe they want $40 for it. INSANE! But I will get it anyways because he loves Mickey Mouse.

I also got these fabulously comfortable pillows at Garden Ridge. Those were the best $20 I ever spent. I have slept so much better on them these past few days it is great! That and not having to get up at 6 helped a little. I still can't sleep later than 7 but still...that extra hour is a life saver.

I've slowly but surely lost a few pounds. I am at 180 this morning. I am sure if I didn't eat those bbq chicken wings I would lose a few more but they are so darn good. I don't want to deprive myself too much. I was planning to get my hair cut before I picked up the boys but I'm thinking about waiting a while longer that way I know my hair is long enough.

Well I have to get back to work now. Talk to ya'll later. Jennifer
