Carbs are the enemy!

So yes, I am going to try for the New Years goals this year...

1- lose weight

2-don't eat as many carbs...yes, because they are the enemy!

3-get out of debt....or at least don't add to the debt!

4-Get my son to write his name....without help.

5-exercise....OK, kinda of goes with number 1

6-clean out the garage. I do believe it is a two car garage...I have yet to see that!


Alright there it is. My New Years goals....We will see how it goes :-)

Happy New Year!!

Cute kids :-)

Thing 2 new view on Santa

"Mom I don't like Santa!"

This happened yesterday.

"Mom, personally I think I should go and buy my Christmas gifts and you wrap them and put them under the tree."

Again he says

"Mom!!! PERSONALLY I DON'T LIKE SANTA!!"
(it was a little louder that time)

I don't know what happen, but I cant talk thing 2 to accept any presents from Santa. He only wants gifts from me under the tree on Christmas morning. This is going to be a ruff Christmas for gifts I think.

Santa!

Thing 1 has been bugging me about going and seeing Santa. He is the only one that would want to see him in real life. Well any how we saw him. Thing 1 was second in line and was soooo happy to see him. He sat on his lap and Santa asked him if he as been good. Thing 1 didn't reply. Then Santa asked what he wanted for Christmas. Thing 1 asked for a Robot. He has wanted a Robot for like six months. Santa said he would see what he could do.

Of course my little scientist now needs to analyse everything Santa said to him.

"Mom, why did Santa ask if I was good this year? Wouldn't he already know that?"

I was laughing a little inside "Thing 1 he was just trying to see if you would lie or not." a moment of silence.

"Mom, how is Santa going to get all the toys done in time if he is seeing kids right now?"
"Well,,He has his elf's make them."

"Mom, Why did Santa ask what I wanted for Christmas? Doest he have a magic snow ball that tells him?"

(I have no idea where the magic snow ball came from) "Thing 1 I think he just wants to make sure he is getting you the right present."

"Mom, how does Santa get the reindeer to fly?"

My reply "Santa Magic"

"Oooohhh! That must be how it works. I get it mom."

So I am thinking well that was easy enough. (of course it wasn't)
So now I am just always saying it is because of "Santa Magic"
I don't know how long this will last. I wish he would just take my word for it.

Meanwhile my Thing 2 just wants to write Santa a letter and he doesn't even care where the toys come from. Or who makes them. He just wants them. He just wants to make sure Santa gets the right gifts for him he doesnt care about "Santa Magic" one bit.

It is so weird how I can have two boys at the same time and have them be so different. :-)

Boogy is walking!

OK well, I think the title pretty much covered it. My little Boogy is mobile! This is the time when everything in my house is either moved or breaks :-)
I have to say though she is the cutest little walker!! Her momma is so proud!!

Autism Walk

I am getting so excited and a little nervous for the Autism walk. I am the Volunteer Chair once again. This time however I decided not to be pregnant and well I'm feeling better about that decision. But getting a little nervous. I was soooo lucky last year to get a ton of amazing teenagers to help. It was so great and worked out so well I am just hoping I can pull it off again! I think it will. I always manage to get my goals accomplished (except for the losing weight one) so I know it will work out great!
I am just getting a little nervous :-)
