Hammer time!

Before you go envisioning parachute pants and start singing the 1990 music hit in your head, today's blog title has a different connotation. It's time for me to go "hammer time" on myself. I've lost 15 pounds since Amelia was born but I've been at a standstill the last... um... five weeks. I need to get re-motivated. With summer just around the corner and my nine month up, nine month down philosophy, I gotta get on it! I'd like to lose 30 more pounds before our beach trip this July but even 20 would put me back where I was when I got pregnant. So again, in an effort to keep myself honest, I'm going to enforce "hammer time".

In other news, things are pretty hum drum these days. The girls are wonderful. They are gorgeous and fun and exhausting! I apologize for the lack of pics with this post. We haven't done much worth breaking the camera out for. I'll work on that for next time. We're looking forward to April and my Spring Break when we hope to visit family and friends in south west Virginia and across North Carolina. Shaun and I are trying to enjoy one date night each week but he started back at the golf course on the weekends on top of the restaurant during the week so our time together is precious. We continue to hope and pray his other job begins shortly, but know that with that will come it's own set of logistical issues so we will at least be grateful for the time being we don't have to worry about day care. That's one perk to NOT having his job start yet. But about the only one. Anyway, we are hopeful. I think I heard a reporter use the term "cautiamistic" referring to the economic recovery for the nation, but I'd say it applies to our little family too.
