My Maman to be Friend

My hubby and I have these friends that are expecting. I say these friends like they are just random people. Well that is not the fact. These are our true friends, almost like family! Hubby and I were spending the weekend at the rents-in-law. I get a call on my cell phone. It is our friends. Now why would they call us out of the blue on a Saturday evening. Uhmmm... Well it is simple... They are expecting their first child. This news did not come as a surprise since we knew they were trying but still it was exceptional news. We were as happy as if it was us going to have a child! Glad it is them and not us... This kid is going to be so lucky. He will have amazing parents that want him so much. He has uncles and aunts but he also has us. We are going to love this child the same way we love the other children in our life! Yesterday morning the papa to be emailed me to give me the update. Maman was sick. Ah the fun of being pregnant. When you think of it, God it is a lot for someone to go through. Now we have this weekend planned with them. We are going to Rogersville at our camp. Ms. Maman is sick after every meal. I said to the Papa, are you sure she still wants to go? he says oh yes, she has the stubborn Maman attitude. Ah the joys of being a Maman to be!

Diet and not smoking!!!!

So it will be a week on Tuesday that I have quit smoking! I did have a half cigarette on Friday because I met with my big boss and was really nervous. It went really well so I did not need that half a cigarette. I do tell myself that I could have had it all, so... I am pretty proud of myself. I am quitting smoking with no help at all and to top it off I am on a diet.

Tonight, as part of my diet, I decided to workout. I bought this DVD when I was going to ww. It is really easy to follow. So here I am trying to do my workout and my little buddy, my son, is trying to imitate the girls on TV! It was so funny. My husband was taking all these pictures of him.

So all I want to say is I probably wont see the numbers going down on the scale this week but that is OK cause it will be a week that I can say I am a non smoker!

A New Day

Well today is a new day! I was outside smoking at work. A women who I met the first week, asked me today if I was expecting another baby! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! No I am not with child, I am just FAT!!! Ok so after that, I said enough is enough!
I went up to my office and logged on to Weight Watchers and joined! Yes I did it! I paid for three months so here we go!
Not only am I determined to lose the weight, I am also determined to quit smoking. Today at 1:30pm I had my last cigarette. So the next few weeks are going to be hard for me. I am lucky cause I do have a really great man that will be very patient with me.
I am doing this cause I was really embarrased today, I feel like I have no energy and I am doing it so that I can Live to see my son graduate or get married!
Till next time...

My Son

Well I have an almost two year old son. I know every one says their kid is really smart but mine really is.
The other day Justin was driving him to his babysitter. Justin, as we all do sometimes, was thinking of work and forgot to turn on our babysitters street. He turns to Sam and says:" Daddy forgot to turn." Sam was already pointing backwards as to say Hey you missed the road! Justin turned around and started to drive again. He was truly amazed that Sam had realized that Justin had missed the street.
As Justin is getting closer to the street again, Sam turns towards Justin and says:" Papa ici!" and points to the street. He wanted to make sure that he did not forget to turn!
I told you he was smart!
We are also trying to teach Sam to be polite. So as soon as we give him something we say "Say Thank you!" He just looks at us and thinks yeah what ever, I already have it in my hand. This past weekend we went to my parents in law. It was a blast especially that we were able to see our son and our godson play together. It went pretty well even though our son is pretty spoiled. Brandon would take Sam's toys and he would get mad! In the end they were getting along. At one point Brandon was holding our screen door at our camp so that Sam could bring his truck in the camp. When Sam finally made it in, he turned towards Brandon and said:"Merci"
I was so proud!

The beggining

My friends is a huge blogger. She reads other peoples blogs and now I am addicted to hers. I guess the reason why it is really addictive is you really get to know the person in a different way. It is really interesting. So I moved to a new town. I am really enjoying my new place. People are really nice, my job is great. The only thing is I miss everyone I have left behind. I love the time I get to spend with my hubby and my son but I need my own time with my friends. I am actually funny when I am around my friends. I know it is hard to believe but they laugh with me or at least I think they do! So this week, I was lucky enough to be in my old town for a few days. What fun! I was actually able to sit down with my friends for over 4 hours. This is when I realized how lucky I am to have such great friends! Ok not so interesting for my first blog, but I am a newbie... give me a chance!
