Target and Cranium’s “Bloom”
January 23rd, 2008
I finally did it. Yesterday I went the whole day without a Diet Coke. First time in… a long time. I woke up with a bad headache today, though, and ran for a can this morning. Kinda sad. So, here’s the breakdown:
Sunday: 1 diet coke
Monday: 1 diet coke
Tuesday: 0 diet coke
Wednesday: 1 diet coke
I’m going to try for zero again tomorrow. Wish me luck!
I’m going in to have my blood drawn for those clotting tests today. Hopefully we’ll be able to say definitively if that’s a problem or not.
CTM and I went to the gym again last night and I am pretty tired and sore today. It feels really good. :) We are going again tonight!
I wanted to touch for a minute on a great Toddler Trip that is a favorite of mine and the toot’s: going to Target. We went yesterday — an hour of wandering and browsing. We both had a great time. The toot LOVES to look at the toy cars, and is actually pretty good about not needing to take all of them home. (We do bring home a random hot wheels here and there… but they are $1!) He also loves to identify all the stuff he can, from pineapples to pajamas.
I found a new line of toys that Cranium has put together exclusively for Target, called “Bloom.” I could only find these six on their web site, but they had a few more at the store. This cooking set is similar to some of the others I saw, like sandwich stacker sets both for sandwiches and burgers. They also seemed pretty affordable, with prices ranging between $10-$15. Very cute.

Maybe it’s a good thing that you had a DC today before your tests since you were drinking it while you were pregnant. You know…keeping those variables consistent
We also love Target and tend to come home with all sorts of things we don’t need! Those toys are darling–I’m going to have to get the measure and cook set for Little Ro. He’s totally into cooking and playing kitchen right now!

You know, I think you are right! That WAS a good idea. LOL Actually, that’s all I had in my system when I got there, so they made me drink a Capri Sun before taking eight - yes, EIGHT - vials of my blood. Vampires!

Fabulous job on the diet coke free day. I had TONS on sat, none on sun, small one on mon, none tues, and one today. And I went to aerobics today too! Thanks for motivating me.

Heather, you are doing better than I am! You’ve got two days with none to my one… I better suck it up tomorrow.
CTM and I just got home from the gym and I am BEAT. We are going to try and go again tomorrow, if we aren’t too tired. It might just be another yoga day or a short walk with the toot. It’s freakin’ cold here, though, so that’s not my favorite idea.
