Hi to all. Diet going pretty well. Haven't stepped on the scales today,but last time I checked I've lost 2 pounds. Had a Dr. appointment today for Ashley. Her tummy hurts after eating. It occasionally has been happening the last couple of months,but has been every meal the last couple of weeks. Turns out it's constipation. WHEW. That's a relief. I was afraid it was an ulcer,but she said that food would make an ulcer feel better. Also she said constipation makes people eat less cause when they start eating the brain sends a signal to the colon and in turn that's what causes the pain.

For the movie goers, we watched Marley and Me the other day. It was very good,but make sure you leave the kids at home and bring a box of tissues. We made quite the scene at the theaters. Leia went a little hysterical at one point. Hits too close to home with Ruger,Tyler,and Sadie. Other then the ending we laughed the rest of the time. The week before we watched Bedtime Stories and it was hilarious. Excellent movie for kids

Today the girls had no school, so took the girls to Max and Erma's after the Dr.'s appointment. They got fancy drinks. Flaming Fizzes.(Sprite, watermelon syrup,and a cherry on top) I told them if they ate almost all their food they could do the ice cream sundae bar. They ate almost everything and got to make the most bizarre sundaes. They have a bathtub full of every ice cream topping you can imagine. I think the girls put just about everything they had on their ice cream. I couldn't resist, I had to take a bite. Let's just say you have to be a kid to eat something like that. After we left Seymour we went to Mom's and hung out, she was making her version of the Snuggies you see selling on TV. The girls call them Ommies. Mom had a cupcake patch to sew on them. I told Ashley she should put it over her stomach so it looks like she just ate it,and I told Leia she should put it on her arm like a tattoo. I was just teasing them but Leia really liked the Idea of a tattoo. Mom at least talked her into putting it down low. Too funny.
