It's that time again... (and other stuff)

Time for the cute little girls in their brown or green vests to come knocking on your door selling... yep, you guessed it... Girl Scout Cookies! How do I have the inside scoop on this information?? I have one of those cute little girls, which makes it even harder to avoid the temptation to buy a box (or 12). If I sound a little disheartened by this knowledge, I am. Not that it will stop me from eating the cookies, but as of January, we've been trying to eat healthier and excercise, which has proven to be much more difficult for me than for Jim. Especially since he's lost 10 lbs and I've lost, well... nevermind. So I'm sure the cookies will do wonders for my waistline. If anyone knows of a Girl Scout Cookie Diet, sign me up!

Besides Hanna being busy perfecting her sales pitch, she has also moved up from Level 1 to Level 3 in Gymnastics. She is doing really well and is loving every minute of it. We are proud of her. As for Tommy, he is busy trying to roll over and working hard on the exercises we've been learning at Physical Therapy. He has Torticollis, which means "crooked neck." Basically, the muscles on the right side of his neck are tight, and the muscles on his left side are weak, so he tends to tilt his head to the right. His isn't severe, you probably wouldn't notice unless you were looking for it, but his doctor caught it at his 4 month checkup, and referred us to a Physical Therapist. It is quite common, it was probably caused from the way he was positioned in the womb. With exercise and stretching, it will correct itself. He loves his therapist Tanya and is already making progess, so he'll be "good as new" in no time. :)
