Weekly Wishes #12

Filed Under: Family Tagged With: Weekly Wishes

Well we found out some news last week that will be making my weekly wishes change over all. See the photo below…

2014-03-22_0001

Now that I won’t be trying to lose weight, I will be trying to not gain too much this pregnancy. This pregnancy was not planned at all. I wanted to lose quite a bit of weight before getting pregnant.

Last Week’s Wishes

  1. Make it to the gym twice if I am feeling up to it. Did not happen at all. I hope that when I am not so tired I can get back to the gym. Even though I will be going at a much slower pace.
  2. Finish blog posts that are due, and get them scheduled. I did finish a few blog posts. YAY! 
  3. Fill out and return some paperwork that needs to be done to get help for Carsyns’ expenses. Nope. Need to do this!
  4. Do the 40 bags in 40 days. Plus finish things around the house. We are going to go ahead and list our house with a realtor. I did get some of this done but I still have quite a bit left to do.

 This Week’s Wishes

  1. Really focus on my nutrition. I want to be healthy for my baby, and myself.
  2. That we have a good first appointment with my OB. Excited to see this little bean via ultrasound.
  3. Fill out and return some paperwork that needs to be done to get help for Carsyns’ expenses. Repeat from last week.
  4. Do the 40 bags in 40 days. Plus finish things around the house. We are going to go ahead and list our house with a realtor. Repeat from last week.

What are your goals for this week?

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.

She recommended this wooden trellis from Lowe’s that cost less than $15. I tied up the droopy leaves with twine. There is lots of room left for growth.
I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendro I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendron white wizard when I first got it, I also didn’t give it enough sunlight. So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.

Annelyn is loving her new hair cut and loving her hair straightened. Swipe for some adorable photos, she came up with all her own poses. Also the very last photo is her hair before, it was a hot mess. Mollie cut off 3-4 inches and it looks much healthier now.
