The weather has been awesome these past couple of weeks--yesterday and today, we hit 80 degrees! We've been taking advantage of the sunshine and started longing for the lazy days of summer. On Saturday, we took the kids to a Rockies baseball game, and they had a blast! Noah couldn't wait for "one more strike, then we sing" the seventh inning stretch. Ryleigh basically just snacked her way through the entire game, enjoying all of the little treats that Noah carried in his sports lunch bag.
The kids seem to be getting so big these days. Ryleigh is eating "big girl" food like a champ. We modified a log bed for Noah, and so now he sleeps in his very own "big boy" bed. He also is already making friends with the neighbor girl by chatting over the fence and sure has enjoyed getting to be outside to play with his soccer goal and learning to ride his new tricycle.
While the kids are getting bigger, Ryan and I are getting smaller. Ryan bought a used Bowflex, and we decided to take on the six-week fat loss challenge. It really works! Ryan made fun of me a little over a week ago when I suggested he try on smaller shorts--they fit then and now they are hanging on him! He's always been good-looking, but check him out in the pictures now at 22 pounds lighter and with lots of new muscle! And me, I am just happy that I have finally almost removed every last pound of so-called "baby weight." It feels great!
