Howdy Partner!

E loves playing cowboy these days. He is always wearing his cowboy hat and riding his stick horse. It cracks me up. The other day we decided to dress Max up like a cowboy so they could play together. I don't think Max quite enjoyed being a cowboy as much as E does. Oh well. Look at E's face...so typical for him. I find him making all these hilarious faces all the time.

As for a little update on what we've been up to...Max is currently teething. It's not too bad, but he is pretty sad. We're trying all the normal comfort measures and just waiting for them to pop through. He really loves having cold watermelon in his little "munch bag" after dinner so that gives a little relief.

E hasn't been into too much mischief lately. His new thing is telling every single person he meets that he wants to go over to their house. It happens at church, the store, friends' houses, all the time. One day we were at the store and this elderly gentleman came up to us to say that my children were really good mannered and then E pops out with..."Next time I'm coming over to your house!" It usually makes people laugh, but we've had to start talking about "stranger" stuff and what's appropriate. Not so easy with a kid like E since he loves to talk to anything that moves. He definitely did NOT get that gene from me!

As for me, I'm enjoying my week off of boot camp. I found out last Friday that I won the biggest loser again so I get to take $25 off my next camp. I figured I'll keep going to boot camp as long as the biggest loser coupons are coming. Something must be working which is kind of interesting considering some results that I got back from some blood work that I had done. I found out that I have an under active thyroid which can be very common after pregnancy. So that explains the some of my tireness and the reason why I don't lose baby weight very quickly. So my doctor put me on some thyroid medication and I'll have my levels drawn again in 6-8 weeks. So we'll see how that goes. Well, I'm headed to San Diego today and I'm very very excited! I'll be back Sunday night, pictures to come!
