School Vacations Suck, but Goals are Good

So at this point there have been plenty of other posts about why I hate when the kids are on school vacation -- so I won't go into to much detail....so here is the overview of my lovely day today:
- Kids woke up at 5:30 am (that is 2.5 hours earlier than they usually do)
- Aidan decided that he would get himself some breakfast sometime before 5:30 any guesses? Yup, I found him in his room eating a box of Cheez-Its -- ah, the breakfast of champions!
- The kids were jumping on Aidan's bed and Haylee got pushed off... very pretty purple bruise on her chin
- The jumping on the bed lead to the breaking of a support brace on Aidan's bed
- Jumping wasn't interesting anymore so they decided to take Aidan's bed apart
- There were so many other things that happened today that my Mommy brain has just blocked out...
So needless to say they were fed, bathed, and in bed by 6:30. It was definitely a bad mommy day!

On another note, my weight loss challenge is going OK. School and life has been VERY stressful this semester so I haven't been exercising as much as I would have liked, but I have made an effort to make it to all of my appointments with my trainer which has been very helpful! So as of this morning I was down to 220 lbs -- only 50 or so to go, right?!?!?!
