Valentines Weekend.

45 days. Sunday was Valentines day as you all know. I have been without sweets for 45 days, and was doing very very well. My mom and dad came down and went with us to The Affair of the Heart and then we took them out to eat. One of mine and Ron's favorite places is SaltGrass, we ate there on our honeymoon so its kind of like our go to place if we are doing something special. They also have a KILLER chocolate cake dessert. We talked about it and since it had been 45 days since we had either one had a dessert of any kind we thought we should go ahead and share a piece of cake. IT WAS AMAZING and so worth the cheat.
The following day, we started over and recommitted so on we go. I think that Vday, our anniversary and Christmas will be cheat days. I mean dang, diabetic or not 3 desserts a year isn't bad right. It was really nice, I felt terrible afterward, so I got to see the effects of it and it made we WANT to get back on my diet and keep eating better.
I feel like we are trying to make better choices for ourselves and in turn that helps Anderson too.
My mom and dad were here, we had fun with them but since we went to TAOTH it was a fast and furious weekend. Anderson was asking them when he gets to go to their house and play, so I think that might be in the works in a couple of months. I love getting to watch my mom and dad interact with Anderson. It brings back so many good memories and he loves them so much I can just see it all over them. Its great to have such supportive parents, I only hope that I can be as good to Anderson as they were to me and Blake.
We enjoyed our Monday off, since it was Presidents' Day the banks are closed as well as State offices so Ron and I both got to stay home with Anderson and recoop from our weekend and our company. All in all it was a great weekend. I am so looking forward to summer, I hope to get to spend some good QT with my family at the lake.... I hope you all are doing good.

PRAYER REQUEST::
Ron's grandmother (who watches Anderson) was having trouble with her vision and we just found out that she has cataracts. (sp) The doctor told her they aren't "ripe" yet so she just has to live in a state of fog until they get ripe where he can do surgery to remove them. Please keep her in your prayers.
