Nice weather (for a moment)

We had two whole days that reached 60. It was almost unreal after all the below freezing temps and inches upon inches of snow we have gotten this winter! Now its back to the upper 30's but it seems maybe we will stay above freezing now. I think this week is has highs in the 40s.

So, Kevin has put on his "spring" hat and started cleaning out the garage and putting the snow-blower away and he brought out a couple of toys for Brooke. We all spent the evening outside - without a coat - it was very nice.

We bought this Little Tykes car at a garage sale for $2 last summer. And she loves it! She spent the evening getting in and out and in and out and playing with the steering wheel. Can't wait until we get some more warmer days. Its was so nice to spend time outside.




As for me, I went to the doctor a few days ago. I only gained 2.7 pounds in 3 1/2 weeks - so I am doing much better! One pound a week now is normal so anything at or below that is good. I guess trading in the donuts every morning for breakfast and switching to oatmeal and fruit really helped! Now I will be in New York for two weeks. Forced to eat out every meal - so I hope I can maintain my goals!
