Spencer's trying to talk more.  Lots more.  After just one day of preschool.  Which he LOVED!  He asked me yesterday and today if he could go again.  Yesterday was kinda difficult because he was saying a lot more, but not enunciating anything.  Keeping that upper lip firmly locked in place at his gum line.  Hard to say a lot of letters is you don't use your upper lip...  And Rachel seemed to be taking cues from him, so I couldn't understand anything she was saying either.  Today was much better, we had speech therapy this morning so that started things off better.  Good stuff!!!

I'm down 16 pounds now.  I've been doing well.  Feeling the extra energy kick in from the workouts.  Not coming up with excuses to blow off the workouts.  Still eating well, but not obsessing, I haven't even logged today yet.  We went to Red Robin tonight and I got a caesar salad wrap.  Probably not much better than a burger, but it's the first time I've ever gotten anything other than the bacon cheeseburger there, so that's progress.  I've noticed that when I first got my pedometer I was logging about 4000 steps a day (non-workout days) and now I'm up nearer to 7500 or 8K (I've hit 12000 several times if I include workouts), but I don't feel more tired.  Quite the opposite, actually.  I'm sleeping better, though I still have trouble getting up in the mornings lol.  So all good stuff there, too.
