Weekly recap:

Saturday December 31st
Had Christmas with the in laws and nephews. Had posole for dinner and played all afternoon outside with the kids. Kids and Gus stayed until the evening and I went to work. Suffered from the worst migraine in my migraine story used by 30 minute lunch break to pass out in my car. Didn't help that it was a busy New Years Eve night and my working partner also felt under the weather. We suffered through it though, troopers!

Sunday January 1st
Kids had no clue it was a new year, funny how those things have little meaning at that age. Spent the morning hanging out and cleaning. Yoli and the boys came over to play and watch the Raiders game...they lost and also lost their chance of the playoffs. Gus left in the afternoon to visit with Oscar and me and the kids got a relaxing evening alone.

Monday January 2nd
School holiday but momma was ready for school to start again!
Hung out and played at home all morning. Waited for Gus to come home from work and went too see Tin Tin in the movie theater...I do not recommend the movie, kind of a waste.
Ate out at Panda and watched a movie by the fire at home.
I suffered another horrible migraine. So painful I was close to asking Gus to take me to the hospital. He was able to get me to relax by rubbing my head and wrapped a sock tight around my temples.

Tuesday January 3rd
Gus got up at 2 and went to work only to find out he had the day off. However, he was excited about being able to take the kids to their first day back to school. I stayed behind and got ready for work. We spent some nice quiet time together before I left, I love those opportunities. The kids enjoyed their first day back and still want to go back tomorrow.

Wednesday January 4th
Average day..kids went to school, we went to work.

Thursday January 5th
Mommy and Ellie morning on the couch watching movies with the cat on our laps. We played on the trampoline until Gus got home ate chili dogs for lunch. Gus made me a wonderful dinner and packed it up for me to take to work...it included 3 giant cinnamon rolls, not helping Gus, not helping! Thought that counts...

Friday January 6th
I cannot take the fatness anymore! Finally reached that point, no more happy eating. Today is the beginning of a new me.
Took Poncho with us to drop the kids at school, he freaked when the big kids got out and he wanted to go with them. I went home and went back to bed. Ellie woke me when she got home so she could say "hi", couldn't imagine a better way to be woken up :)
We ate and went for a 1/2 mile walk around the property. Looking forward to doing more exercise as a family. The trampoline has been awesome too.
