Stop the beatings!

I have to admit that I have been a slacker this week with the whole walking thing. The only excuse I have is that my "gym" has had sick children and I was not motivated enough to walk outside or around my house. I did walk around Legends yesterday. Does that count? And I plan on going walking in the morning (weather permitting.) So if you count yesterday's outing to the Legends and I go in the morning, then I guess I'm not that terrible. I'm actually considering joining the YMCA.....again. I'll have to talk that one over with Keith.

Anyways, I've been beating myself up all week about the walking thing and also about drinking Diet Coke. Yes, it's true. I drink Diet Coke. Daily. Twice Daily. Okay I have a problem. And I'm nursing. I know, I'm terrible. But let me tell you. I looked it up today and according to babycenter.com, a nursing mother can have up to 300mg of caffeine a day. I can tell you I am NO WHERE near that. SO, I will quit feeling so guilty about it and just enjoy my beverage.

I am looking forward to tonight. I have hired a babysitter and Keith and I (and Mason) are going to dinner and then do some shopping for Britt's birthday. This will be the second "date" we've had since Mason was born (and probably even before that.) I know we both need a little more one on one time and I look forward to spending the night with my hubby!! I better go pick up the house and make it presentable.
