Have I mentioned how much I love summer? I love it! Probably a little too much.
So anyway, I have strict instructions from my hubby that there is to be NO SPENDING MONEY so that means I can't go anywhere. I mean anywhere because every time I hop in the car somehow I spend 50.00 on nothing! (you know the kids need something to eat, the car needs to be washed, something is on sale...)
POOF! The money is gone, and I'm in big trouble.
So I'm trying to be a good girl...(trying)
My choices are, stay home and stay home. (I don't do well with temptation.)
I've been really good lately, we swim everyday and eat yummy food, like rice crispie treats, grilled cheese sandwhiches, chips,and popsicles.
We are having way too much fun around here. So much fun that none of my clothes fit anymore.....I'm totally serious....they don't fit!
Maybe the good life isn't so GOOD?
SO I'm asking all of you skinny minnies, how do you resist opening up the fridge every time you walk by, finishing off your kids hot dog, eating the yummy treat you just made (for the kids) ? How do you do it? I need to figure this out fast cause pretty soon my sweats won't fit either.
The good life? I'm not so sure.

Please, when you figure this out, share the info with me! We would be in a terrible state if I was visiting you.- just a minute, I need a sip of my coke.- ahhhh- now I won't eat!xoxoxoxoxo, kris
I think that is the question every woman needs awnsered. just look at all the fun your having now. I know after this baby, my fun will consist of exercising & sleep only. I am so jealous you have a pool. We just turned our hot tub down. Not much room but refreshing at least.
I am not saying I am a "skinny minnie" by any means...but I have been going to bed hungry. That is the only thing that seems to work somewhat in my favor.
You are too funny. I think you are the cutest gal. I am trying to talk myself into being motivated to exercise. It's not working... Too bad I don't live closer and I'd come work out in your exercise room. I think it is hot enough down there that you just sweat yourself thin. You look great.
I've been getting a speech about money spending. I wish I could have some fun staying home but I just end up cleaning non stop. I send the kids out to go slip n slide & play in backyard. Then I have alot of the neighbor kids come to play at our house. Then I have kids come in & out of our house. (That drives me crazy)
I don't think I can see you putting on any weight. You've got a cute body. Your the skinny minny...
o.k. april you crack me up. you are so dang beautiful and skinny it's not even funny. you should be giving the lessons on how to stay hot in your 30's (ahhhh).
April,
Who really needs a smokin hot bod with a face like that. YOU are the total package. I have the exact same issue about the munchies in the house. Chris will say "Stop buying them1" and do ya think I listen. The baby food starting to taste good too! Let me know how to do it. LOVE YOU.. Tara
April- would you like to exchange postcards between our kids? My kids are so sad we won't be going anywhere exciting this summer. Check out my post!
How do I do it?
First I blame it on just having a baby... a year ago.
Then I go spend lots of money on new clothes, and act surprised when he asks if it's new.
And then I go eat three more smores because I feel bad about my chunky monkey rear end.
Works for me!
Hey, the pool's in your yard...so I don't think there's any harm done as long as that's the only place your swimming this summer. Just kidding. I have no idea, but my problem is I'm eating and making ALL of the treats for ME! At least you share.
I love these days April :) You are too cute... I am a sucker at making treats for my kids too... & then helping polish them off! It sucks a mean one, but, Sno-cones fill you right up- that is a treat around here for us. No fat- just lots of sugar- which makes you have energy right?!
