One of the things that I've always loved about Chris is what a gentleman he is. Even when we were young teenagers, he was always quick to do things like open the door for me and let me walk in first. He was always super polite to his elders. He told me that these were things his mom required of him from a young age. You don't see that a lot anymore, but it is something we definitely wanted to instill in any boys we had. So, it was great to see Micah put those lessons to use the other morning at Chick fil A with a little girl his age on the playground. It was so sweet to watch him be so polite. He always let her go down the slide first. He helped her get up the steps. He opened the door to and from the playground for her. I hope him learning these things now makes his future wife feel honored!
In other news - I had my 6 week checkup today. I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight! Yippie! That's the quickest I've bounced back after a having a baby - it normally takes me 6 months or so. I think my illness after having Amy is the biggest reason for that. I guess something good came out of that whole experience. Even though I'm happy about that, my pre-pregnancy weight isn't much to brag about (145). I would love to loose about 15 more pounds. So, that's my goal. I've started bike riding again and plan to hit the exercise pretty hard (kids permitting). You all can hold me accountable. I guess trips to Melting Pot like we did this past Monday night probably aren't going to help me too much in that quest. :)
