I did it! And a week and a half early! I've lost 5.2 pounds since May 1st. So it seems I have reached my mini goal of 5 pounds by June 1st, however, knowing me, I will gain some back between now and then. Especially since we are leaving today for Westport where we will be staying with the in-laws until Tuesday. In-laws = plenty of chips, brownies, huge meals, etc. Everytime we hang with them either at their place, the Ocean (Westport) or Crescent Bar I gain like 3 pounds. But I'm really gonna try to keep it in check this time. I'm 7 pounds over my wedding weight (and 5 pounds under my pre-baby weight, yay) so my next goal, other than not gaining any between now and the 1st, is to lose 7 in 7 weeks, so by July 10th-ish.
Last summer a friend of mine introduced me to this cool park on Mercer Island. When we went, we only played at the swimming beach and never explored the rest of the park or played on the playground. So yesterday, we finally went back with a picnic lunch and checked out some more of the park (there's still another section we didn't get to, so maybe next time). The playground was really cool with all sorts of nooks and cranies, and old-fashioned metal slides and ladders. They girls loved it. View from our picnic spot A pyramid with slides on the other side Lake Washington beyond Chair swings--never seen these before I-90 bridge over Lake Washington Trail along the lake leading to the swimming beach Should have brought swimsuits. They were SO sandy and wet coming home.
