Christmas and New Years

Well it's been just over a month since I was on here last. Let's see what's been going on. We had Christmas at home, my parents and DH parents houses. Lot's of Christmas! It was a really nice time.

New Year resolutions:

-Of course the weight loss one
-clean house better: more 'green'
-follow thru more with the 'Love & Logic' stuff
-recycle -this one is for DD, she has been more aware of recycling and we are not setting a good example.
-spend more quality time with my girls
-stop worrying about stuff I can't control (stole that one from ambercamp)
-go for a walk at least once a week and build up from there
-and be a better person overall (stole that one too )

I also started a food log today. I'm not really sure how many calories I should have every day. I can't find any place that tells me since I am still bfing. I ate 2700 calories today. And I was still kinda hungry. I think it's the foods that I am eating. I found a website www.babyfit.com that actually helps me find foods to eat. With calorie information. I also am going on www.fitday.com and if I am out or can't get to my computer I have a paper log.

As for the house cleaning one, well.....I hate to clean. When I was working I could do whatever needed to be done. I guess what I need is to be held accountable. But the only person that will come down on me for not cleaning is me. If DH did I would be pissed. Remind me of growing up. Love my mom, but I don't want my DH treating me the way my dad treated my mom. I keep thinking that I need a schedule of some sort, but it is really hard to get started. I want everything to be spotless when I start and that is never going to happen. I really just need to pick a room and start there. I keep telling myself that...

Love & Logic stuff. Working on that. It is really tough! The other day I was able to give C a bath and wash her hair without her screaming! It was awesome! Today, she left a barbie outside and Sushi chewed a barbie hand off. I broke it to her and she was sad but it was anything like I thought it would be. It broke my heart to have to tell her.

Haven't done anything with the recycling yet. I need to find out who takes what in terms of recycling. Plastic bottles, bags, lights bulbs, etc. You know the usual.

I try everyday to spend more quality time with DDs. I am trying to cuddle and read to them every day.

Haven't started walking yet. Someone might see me! I know I'm a freak. Can't help it.
