busy weekend
Well, this has been a challenging weekend. On the 4th, I was up at 3:30AM to get in my workout before getting my son up for a 7:30AM parade. By the time I got home from the gym it was 6AM and I got my son up, we ate, and were ready to go by 6:40. (I won’t mention what time my wife was finally ready to leave, but let’s say she’s not a morning person. LOL! Love you, honey!) The parade was 30 minutes away and if you don’t get there a little early, you don’t get a front row seat. I wouldn’t have minded that, but then my son wouldn’t be able to see anything from his 2y/o vantage. So, after the parade the family went out for a solid brunch (my 3rd meal of the day) and I had a really yummy spinach omelet with some whole wheat toast. (Even stuck mostly to my eating plan!) 
Finally we ended up at a township picnic for some sun & fun. By the time we got home everyone was absolutely exhausted.
Yesterday was somewhat similar in that we were pretty busy with errands & activities. I sat down for a quick catnap around 3:30 and my wife woke me & my son up at 5:30!! I guess we were still pretty tired! So we got up long enough to eat dinner and then he went back to bed. I stayed up a little longer to enjoy some adult time and have another meal. I am happy to say that through the chaos I didn’t miss a single meal! That must be why I’m up another whole pound this week! YAY!!
Today is a rest day, though I doubt "rest" will be an appropriate adjective to describe the day. My wife has a list a mile long of things she’d like me to do and I still need to make meals for the work week. Unfortunately, since it’s supposed to be in the upper 80’s, I don’t know how much time we’ll spend playing outside. 
We’ll see what we can do this morning, though! It won’t be too hot until later in the day. So, you are now officially caught up on my weekend! I’ll try to post something more thought provoking either later in the day or tomorrow morning….
