Queen Size Mommy Getting Back on Track

Latte with The Queen Mommy

So Little Man is 8 weeks old now.  Breastfeeding has become a routine for the most part – and we’re still supplementing a bit of formula every day.  He’s growing and doing well.  We’re sleeping better (mostly) and after last week, I feel a bit more confident in tackling every day.  This is a particularly… read more »

School Days

I saw this picture back from  my school days on Facebook.  I can remember when this picture was taken.  I was a member of the track team.  Seriously.  I laugh about it now cuz I HATE. TO. RUN.  I mostly did hurdles and jumps, although I was a member of a couple of relay teams. … read more »

Latte with The Queen Mommy

sigh.  yep, I sighed.  Here’s my weigh-in this week: 254 lbs No gain.  No loss.  ARGH! Seriously!  I got to work on the recumbent cross-trainer twice last week, I went for two walks – which considering my ankle, is the most activity I’ve had in months.  I’ve been hitting my water goal almost every day…. read more »

PSB: Weighing In

Latte with The Queen Mommy

So the last week has been stressful.  Georgie, my almost 3 year old, came home vomiting after Vacation Bible School.  We thought maybe she got overheated or reacted to the red punch (she is very sensitive, and I’ve been wondering if she has an issue with red dye anyway).  After about 24 hours, she started… read more »
