Week 24

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving break. Thanksgiving itself was very quiet. I basically spent the day in my PJ's, reading a book. The next day we drove to Deerfield for our annual Yankee Candle Factory excursion. Santa was there - the Santa - so we saw him first. Holden proudly told Santa what he wants. He is asking for a mini guitar, a chicken Webkinz, Sorry Sliders, and Bakugan. With the exception of the Bakuagn I think Santa can handle the list. Scout didn't want to talk to Santa. He said he will write him a letter later.



After the candle factory we drove to Cranston's Tree Farm in Ashfield, MA. Sometimes it felt like we were in VT rather than MA! The people there are lovely. We explained to them that we wanted to buy a tree, just not for ourselves. They were happy to oblige. We did look around for a table top tree but thought we should just pay for the non-tree tree we were getting and head out. We are hopeful that we made someones day!


The rest of break was pretty relaxing. Church on Sunday. I read another book. Monday the boys were off of school so we went to our favorite diner for lunch and then went to see "Bolt." It was a cute movie. I love it when the boys laugh out loud; it makes me smile!

So now I am in week 24. I am really starting to show. Only a little bump but people are noticing. I also gained almost a pound this week. I am struggling with that. I know I need to but I have to tell you I do not like seeing the scale go up at all. My pants are getting tight. Time for the belly band!

I have had two great walks this week and am hoping to go again today. It was my goal to walk three times a week and I think I will accomplish that today.

Til next week -
