Just some stuff.

Some of Parker's comments I wanted to share. This guy has been cracking me up.

'Mommy, can you come play playdo with me, I've been asking you like 4 times!'

' Mommy, you are a good cooker!'

After Parker fell at preschool this week, 'Mommy, I broke myself!'

'Mommy, you don't have to say no'

This next one needs a little story. A few weekends ago, Stacey took Parker to the ranch to do some COW stuff. Stuff being shots and inserting these things I THINK are called seeders that have tubes that come out their behind so they can be removed at a later date. They are inserted up the....well, you get it. FIL does this stuff to make the cows all go into heat at the same time I believe. Parker was in on the whole process.
Monday at the doctors office, I got right in Parker's face, nose to nose, to tell him that he was going to get a shot. He didn't blink before he asked me, 'like the cows?'
M: Yes like the cows.
P: Am I going to have the blue thing?
M: No babe. Just a shot in the leg.
P: (silence)
M:Can you be brave and TOUGH like those cows?
P: yes Mommy.

I want you to know, he just grunted during shot time! No tears. I called my FIL as we left the dr.'s office to let him know JUST how educational he had been down at the ranch.

This week completed my first official week of BOOTCAMP! Yes, I did it. 5:30 -6:30 am!!!!! I am proud of myself. Today we ran a timed mile. I did better than I expected. I won't share my time, because I don't want to hear all of YOUR times. I thought I would never WORKOUT again after highschool and that one semester of college athletics. NEVER! But, I ate those words this week after I realized I must do something to get rid of this weight. I do feel good, SORE, but good, TIRED, but good. I am even trying to eat better so that the results will be where I want them.
Have a good weekend.

I, too, have starting back running this week on my treadmill. I am not ashamed to say that I proudly "run" a 14 minute mile. I know you're impressed with that, considering I can walk it in 17 minutes!
