Well this is my third time having to write this posting because for some reason this computer is acting wacky...sorry to make you have to suffer but I am not going to sit here again and type out 3 paragraphs of stuff so I am just going to bullet point everything I touched on in my previous attempts.

  • As of 2 weeks ago I have lost a total of 36lbs since my surgery (Feb 11)
  • I have lost approx another 5-6 lbs since that appt (my scale doesn't work properly to be accurate.
  • I have had the band filled twice, and I now have a total of 3cc's in the band
  • It was filled using a 6 inch needle jabbed into my stomach, into the port of the band which is sewn under my skin.

  • Olena still cannot ride her bike that the Easter Bunny brought, I even bought a tricycle for her to try and learn on. No luck! Any Ideas???
  • J and I did our part to boost the economy and used our stimulus check on 2 new Schwinn bikes and a bike trailer for Olena to ride in.
  • Our bikes are COOL -- they are the old style beach cruisers with the big upright handle bars, chrome fixings, and white wall tires. Mine is pearl white and J's is matt black. Very retro and we LOVE them.
  • I'll take and post some pictures of them soon.

Notice anything different?

A little accessory for her Aunt Rickie's wedding.  She kept telling us she wanted long hair like us for the wedding but we just never grew it out.  So voila! instant long hair! I do plan to make it look a lot nicer for the wedding.  Literally she walked in from playing in the sprinkler and I shoved it on her head.  Once her real hair is curled it will blend and look more uniform. I am proud at how well I matched the color, I was worried because I ordered it off line.  

Soon to be teenager!

We just celebrated our 11th Gotcha Day, this kid amazes me everyday.  She is doing fabulous in the 6th grade.  She currently has all As and 1 B.  She loves school and still loves to learn.  She struggles a bit with making friends, but she handles herself well, meshes great with the staff and the teachers and doesn't take any crap or bullying from anyone.  LOL!  She has had her fair share of issues, and has had to write out 50 Ways to be Respectful a handful of times and has been in the "warrior room" to work out conflicts more than once but she is loving, kinds, silly, strong and very self confident.
