Happy Thursday! Or Friday for me!
This weekend we are taking the boys to Sea World San Antonio!! They are going to LOVE it!! I can't wait!! Well, you know they won't remember , but my hubby and I will always!! So that makes it fun for us to experience this with them! I'll take lots of pictures and videos and try my best to post them. Although most of the time they end up on Facebook.
I plan on seeing my brother in Austin and my old friend from my first job too! She has a little boy who is 15 months. Then I am stopping in San Marcos to see my bestest friend Nathalie.
We plan to go to Sea World Saturday during the day and then the Riverwalk/Mall that evening. LIke 5pm-8.
I'm so excited to get out of DFW AREA!! First vacation of the year! Yippee!!! We are also renting a minivan, so I know the boys will love ALL the room they can walk around in other than the cramped Sedans we have. Hopefully , its a NICE minivan with leather seats and automatic doors etc... We are brining our portbable DVD players so hopefully the boys will actually watch it this time! LOL! I'm just so ready for this day to be over and it be friday!
I'm pretty much finished packing for the boys, so its just me tonight. I sold some Mary Kay to a friend today, so I am swinging by her place tonight. GEEZE this extra cash will come in handy!!!!
OKay, will post pics when I get back.

Trash TV
As I was discussing in my last post. Some of the shows I'm going to have to give up are.
1) Grey's Anatomy- I agree with you Mel, that its horrible now. I used to love that show too. Interesting to see if they come back next year. There isn't really a good story line anymore
2) Private Practice - Yes, they've run out of stuff. I am starting NOT to like the characters and Na and Addison and Violet are REally getting on my nerves.
3) Desperate housewives - I really don't know WHY I'm still watching it! LOL!
4) House - IT's just boring now. Same o, Same o weird medical stories. Characters are old and boring.
5) The Office - I kind of already gave it up, but still recorded it a little last season and this season. I did see the one when Steve Carell got engaged, that was sweet, and when he left was awfully sad, but I won't watch it again. Not without him. thing is, it was mainly the other characters that were more funnier than him, but I just can't believe it will still be good.
American Idol - I tried to watch it this year without Simon. Talent sucked, Judging sucked and it was just such a waste of my time. Luckily it really just played in the background while I was cleaning and the boys were playing with their toys.
Shows I'm giving 1 more season:
1. Brothers & Sisters (they might be on the way out also)
2. Bethany ever After - she's getting on my nerves
Reality TV - I'm keeping:
1. Real Housewives of BH, Atlanta, OC
TV shows I still miss:
1. 24
2. SATC
3. Frasier (i know right?)
4. ER (yea, I'm weird)
5. Men in Trees( LOL)
Shows I LOVE:
1) Modern Family
2) Army Wives (favorite right now)
So basically, my tv is dwindling, which is good b/c I don't have time to watch all that stuff and I can now devote more time to reading in my downtime. :)
Happy Wednesday!

Summarize
Over these past two weeks, my life has been consumed in reading. My sister introduced me to this book called Switched by Amanda Hocking. It's a Trilogy so I read all 3 books in like 4 days. They are short. Not like 500 to 600 like Twilight. It was intertaining and then I started reading her other books, My blood Approves, Flutter etc.. I read the 1st 3 books. I think there are 5, but geeze, I basically go tired.. I had to stop. All I did was think about the characters and what might be happening next. I read as many chances as I get. At night, while the boys are eating, while they play, at stoplights on the way to work(i know crazy), but not while driving promise! I barely remember what happened last week besides what went on in the books I was reading! LOL! Insane huh?
I think my DVR is barely handling all my recordings. I did mention to finally cut out about 4 hours this weekend, but I have like 25-30 hours recorded still to watch. I record Oprah, so I have like 12 shows of hers and The View(for the hot topics and sometimes the guests). Ususally, I speed up through The View and/or don't watch the whole thing. It's okay b/c summer is coming and when I get a moment, it will be nice to be able to see something , that's good and not some stupid stuff on summer tv. Then again, I could just read and that's probably what I will do once I go through all my shows. I've decided to cut out a few more shows next year. One of them is Desperate Housewives. Not sure why I am still watching it. Weird. Thank you mom for helping me realize this. LOL!
The boys are good. Chase finally went potty before baths last night. I was so proud! Preston goes all the time, but this was a first for Chase. He goes, "I pee pee potty!!" With this big smile on his face and I say, Great job!, High Five!" LOL! He smiled. The next time we purchase diapers, I think I will get the pull ups and try to start training them.
I'm starting back up and working out during lunch at work again. I'm slacking on the weekends and evenings. I want to try to lose some more weight for summer swim suits... :)
Took the boys to their first Texas Ranger game, it was fun. I have pics. Will up load later. I tried to go to the 1st In and Out Burger in the area, it opened last Wednesday and I went satruday around 3:30 and the drive thru line was a 1/2 mile long with a 1hr 20 min wait and so was the line outside. About an hour. I can totally wait. It's not THAT great of a burger anyways.. Texans are going to be like? This is it? This is what Californians are raving about?! LOL! haha.
Anyways, no more Einstein Bagels, but oatmeal and Yogurt. Need to stop eating bad in the morning and no pasta all week. We'll see how that goes..
Adios.

Go MAVS!! GO!!
I can't believe it, but one of my fellow twin mom friends invited me to the Mav/Laker Playoff game tonight!! She told me Tuesday, but didn't know if SHE could actually go until yesterday!
I'm sooo freaking excited and I LOVE KOBE!! Ever since 1997 when he joined the Lakers. Most hate him, b/c well.. being cocky and there might be alot of other reasons, but I think he is one of the best basketball players out there right now and super cute. Well atleast to me. The Lakers are my 2nd favorite team, so I get to see them BOTH play together!
So this evening after I leave work, I plan to go get a pedi and then walk around West Village which is this outdoor shopping area in Uptown Dallas. I'll just be window shopping though, but it'll be nice to shop in peace and not have to rush! The game isn't until 8:30pm, so I have plenty of time.
We have another busy saturday. The daycare my kids go to is having their Spring Fling carnival at 10:30am-2pm tomorrow . Then at 3pm, my old coworker from another job son is turning 2. That party is across town at Gymboree..
Sunday is off to my mom's house for Mother's day. It should be warm 80's weekend with NO rain. Then it'll be Sunday night and ready to start the long work week again. Three more weeks until our San Antonio Vacation though! Can't wait!
Happy Friday!

Breakfast
Breakfast lately has been a real struggle b/c I've stopped eating healthy breakfasts in the morning. Probably has something to do with me NOT running consistently anymore.. :(
So this past weekend I went and bought yougurt. Not my usualy Yoplait (light) strawberry, but I decided to try something new. Super Target's Archer Farms Peach Yogurt. My my my, I think I am in love. Atleast with the Peach one. I've never tried any other flavor besides strawberry. YUMMY!!! I also bought a Strawberry Banana too! I will try that one tomorrow. I also brought in some Oatmeal packets again. I mean, I just basically got tired of it and started getting my EINSTEIN BROS Cinnamon Sugar bagels, 1 or 2 times a week! I KNOW! Bad! Or Chickfila Chicken Biscuit or pancakes from MCdonalds. I know, I know. I do get their oatmeal sometimes!!! :) So I guess this weekend, since it'll be nice, I go out in my neighborhood and run again. :( I hate seeing all these skinny girls with flat tummies around me, ok so pretty much 98% don't have kids or they didn't have twins, but still! Why can't that be me?? So I'm NOT giving up..I will continue to do my best with the time and energy and will power I have until I get to my ideal weight and flat tummy! LOL!
This week is SO busy at work. Month End Reports I run etc....
Oh and a friend of mine got tickets to see the MAVS and Lakers play here in Dallas for this Friday!! She doesn't know if she can go, but if she does she asked if I wanted to go with her and i was like HECK YEA!!
I love Kobe and I know a lot of folks HATE him, but he's an awesome basketball player, one of the best and who cares if he is a little full of himself! LOL! I really want to take my husband though. I know he really wanted to see them play also.... We'll see
