SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

• I've been craving some bad bad chinese food....so for my birthday next week (while Chloe is a day care) Andy's taking the day off work with me and we're going to PF Changs! It's actually good Chinese, but Chinese nontheless!
• I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of my friends baby boy so that I have a little squishy newborn to snuggle!!! I cannot wait! If she doesn't go into labor on her own, little Benjamin will be here tomorrow!!!
• We are counting down the days until March 18th for Andy to be done with School! It cannot come fast enough!
• I'm pretty sure our taxes are already spent. Credit cards, new pots and pants, and we need a new crock pot too....ours keeps on over cooking stuff...Booo!
• I'm happy about Chloe moving to the next room up at school because now they play REALLY hard, and that means she's REALLY tired by the time bed time gets here, and she doesn't fight it AT ALL! Amen to that!
• I was going to buy myself some TOMS on Zulily when they had them, but I only got Chloe a pair, so that means Mama gets the $10 ones from Dots...oh well....Chloe has better shoes then me, it's ok!
• I got another tattoo. It's a heart on the back of my ankle. And I already can't wait to get a matching one of the other ankle. Yep, it's happening.

• If I put that picture in there to make this post look longer. HA!

Head on over to Shannon's blog, check out her face lift (blog, not her face...LOL!) and tell us what you are saying SO WHAT! to this week!

Haven't seen THAT in awhile!

So, yesterday morning, as I usually do on a Monday morning, I stepped on the scale after I peed and turned the shower on to warm up. Fully expecting the scale to show at least a 1-2 lbs gain due to Aunt Flo about a day away.....turned out, the EXACT opposite! I lost more! I was UNDER 120!!! I haven't seen that number in like FOREVER! I think it's safe to say probably at least since before Chloe was conceived. I really don't ever remember getting that low since I've had her! I couldn't believe it! I was sooooo happy and so proud of myself. I have lost the 5 lbs winter gain + some, and I couldn't be more proud of myself. Now, I know that with Aunt Flo's arrival, I'll put on a few in water weight, but then it's time to get right back on track.
Now, truth be told, we haven't been working out. We missed all last week due to Andy being REALLY busy with school. He's in his last month.....well....less then a month now. His last assignment is due on March 18th. So this is the home stretch for him. We couldn't be more happy! So, I know that it won't make much difference for the beach body that i want, but to lose the weight is more of less my big thing. I could care less about the abs. I like my body just the way it is, and let me tell you....with the 15 lbs that Hubs has lost, he's looking mighty fine himself! He's around 186 now, I think....he says he wants to get down to 170 by the time we leave for Florida. I know that he can do it, and I know that it would be easier if we worked out, but he doesn't have time for it, and I don't like working out by myself, and I sure as hell ain't waking up at 5am if he isn't going to. HA!
So, there you have it, a post about nothing but weight....One of these days I'll be more interesting, I promise! Oh, and my birthday is a WEEK FROM TODAY!!!! Get excited :-)

Fab Friday

It's been a few weeks since I've linked up with the Always Fabulous Laura from The Everyday Joys! She's amazing in every single way a blogger can be, and to top it all off, she's on my Scentsy team....(or shall I say, I'm on hers....lol) Anyways, here is my list of Fab things that are....well....Fab for me:

• Our Day Care Tuition goes down starting today! We prepay for the 2 weeks ahead, and Chloe starts room 6 on Monday, so today's Tuition payment is $470 instead of $570! Sucks that we have to start supplying them with diapers, but that's only until she is potty trained! Thank the dear lord!
• The scale has been fabulous for me this week...it actually hasn't moved up or down, and for me, that's a win! I don't care that I don't see it moving, as long as it's not going up, that works for me. I've been VERY VERY consistent with my tracking calories and I've been under, or over by very little for the past month! So that, for me is awesome!
• Only 5 more weeks until we go to Florida and I have pretty much everything Chloe and I need as far as warmer weather clothing goes! I am sooooo stoked! She's got a few new pairs of shorts, some summer dresses, and some amazingly cute pink canvas TOMS that I ordered from Zulily yesterday! I cannot wait to get them! I just hope they make it here before we leave.....
• My work girls are amazingly sweet in that they are all helping me meet my goals for Scentsy this month.....AND because they are ordering from me, I will be able to get some stock for my parties and order some of the scents that are being discontinued! I am Soooooo excited!
• And last but not least, and maybe possibly one of the best things, because it's the one happening the soonest.....tomorrow me and my girl Mallory are getting matching tattoos! Just little outlines of hearts on out ankles. I cannot wait! 
• Oh, and to top that off....My birthday is March 5th! YAY!

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! if:

• We didn't work out except for the 300 ab twice last week....Fail!
• We have only been in our new house since June, so....about 8 months, and we're already switching internet providers! We're sick of slow internet! Comcast, please be good to us!
• I'm starting a list of Scentsy wax that I am going to be ordering at the end of the month! It's sick how many of my favorites are being discontinued. Make sure you check yours out so you can stock up too! www.cseed.scentsy.us.
• I'm finally realizing that hard work and dedication is really what makes you lose the weight! I've been counting my calories on MFP for the past almost month now, and I am hanging tight in my goal range of 120lbs!
• I'm comfortable where I am with my weight, but I'd like to be closer to 115 when we go to FL. Just to have that sexy beach body that I've been yearning for!
• I have bought so many new clothes and accessories lately, I pretty much have a whole new wardrobe for FL! I love it! And Chloe is about the same. We're ready for the sunshine!
• I'm counting down the last 28 days of Andy's school work....Oh, it's almost done!
• If I'm almost certain that I'm buying myself the Grace Adele Shelby bag for my birthday!

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

• I didn't really like the 300 ab challenge when I did it before, because I'm not sure that I had great posture when I did it, but I think hubs and I are going to attempt it.
• I was going to start potty training last weekend, but didn't. I wasn't in the mood for it.
• I can't wait for this Saturday! I'm going to Spring Sprint in Lansing, and that means a WHOLE day away for Mama! I'm looking forward to it!
• I'm really having to think about things to say SO WHAT! to this week....
• I have spent a lot of money in the past 2 weeks because I know that we are getting our taxes back and I will just pay all my cards off at that time. Mama needs some clothes for Florida!
• I usually just put MMCH on when Chloe and I get home just so that I can get dinner started. I feel bad because I really want to spend that time with her, but you gotta do what you gotta do!
• When it's time to get up in the morning to work out at 5am, I always have a debate in my head....sometimes the bed wins.
• I almost didn't participate in SWW today only because Chloe was fighting bed time, and I knew that we wanted to do abs, and I just didn't think that I would have the time...but I MADE time. LOL!
• I would have felt left out of the loop if I didn't write this up and and link up!
• I kind of feel like a bad ass with my new hoop ring in my nose! But I love it!
• Me and my girl Mallory found a Groupon for $30 to get $60 worth of a tattoo....so we're getting little hearts on our ankles.
• I'm surprised at how many things I've been able to say SO WHAT! to this week :-) But I am done now.
• I have been warming my BBMB scent Sage and Sweet Grass in my Scentsy, and I'm in love. It's like the perfect green.....rain.....grass....spring time scent, and I love it. Spring is ALMOST here!
• I've already decided that I have an addiction to Scentsy, (obviously, since I sell it) but I'm really scared for when the new scents come out in March because that's just going to add about 15 more to my collection.......Oh Lord help me!

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! if:

• Truth be told, I haven't really even given potty training a chance....kind of scares me.
• I was just going to let Day Care potty train Chloe, because I mean, we pay them enough, don't we? me.think.so
• I think I'm going to attempt PT this weekend with some Princess Panties due to Shannon's success story from her Fab Friday post last week!
• I won money from the Super Bowl and I'm going to buy Chloe and myself some stuff for our Florida trip! Oh and I bought myself a lunch tote from ThirtyOne!
• I am giddy excited for Husband to be done with school! MARCH 18th!!!!!
• Today is the first time this week we've gotten up at 5am to work out. I went to bed Sunday not feeling well, and didn't feel like waking up on Monday Morning, and Andy wasn't feeling good on Tuesday....so today, we are BACK AT IT!
• My cat is just as spoiled as our daughter....she gets tuna every day when we get home. And she whines and whines until she gets it.
• Sometimes I'm secretly sad that Chloe is getting so big, so fast. I just want her to be a baby again...
• I'm over my baby fevah! Yep, just like that, but I only give it a few weeks until it's back, because by then, my BFF Cassie will have her new baby boy, and I get to snuggle a newbie again....oh.....my heart will melt, I'm sure!
• I love my hair more every time I see it in the mirror...BUT....I'm thinking next time I get it cut (right before we leave for FL) I'm going to have my Janie Poo cut it a BIT shorter in the back!

Fab Friday

What's fab in my life this week? I'm linking up with Laura at The Everyday Joys to tell ya!

• American Idol is back and I'm loving it! Even though I have missed 2 days of auditions because of other things recording, I'm still loving it!
• Origami Owl.....enough said right there! I can't get enough, and I wear my necklace almost every single day! I literally wear my heart and my life around my neck, and I love it!
• Scentsy! I know this seems to be one of my Fab Friday things every time I do this link up, but I just love it soooooo much! And starting today, there are TONS of closeouts, AND the new catalog is available to consultants today, so contact me with ANY questions! I'm going to Spring Sprint on the 16th, and I will know first hand about all the new products for the Spring/Summer 2013 catalog!

• And last but not least, MY HAIR!!!!!! I am LOVING my new hair! I cut it super short and got blonde highlights! Even though I'm a true brunette, being blonde makes me feel like I'm back to my "roots" because I was seriously blonde for most of my life!
