On the Boat...

OK, technically it is a ship. 
A
VERY
 BIG
 ship. 

We sailed on the Disney Dream.  I love their attention to detail and no one beats Disney's service! 
We went with Warren's brother Eric and his family.


Right away there were character sightings. 
Very exciting.


Braden really enjoyed the splash pad in the shade. 


Hailey got to meet many Disney Princesses at once! 
Her favorite is Ariel.  She didn't have her legs on our last cruise so this was a special treat! 
The princesses were never out of character.



It was fun going with cousins this time! 
Jake nicknamed Braden "Captain Hook" because he was his hook to talk to the girls.
(Not that he needed him, that kid's got game, I tell you!)


And FYI: I actually maintained my weight during our vacation! Getting sick may have helped a little.  I regained my appetite the second day on the ship. 

How could I not with all the delicious gourmet food? (My favorite was a

buttermilk lemon custard - Oh, my stars!)

This past week has been rough on me while I feel lousy.  Not much calorie counting.  But I'm learning to listen to my body and learning to balance the calories.  Today was weigh-in day:

I lost almost a pound and have hit a new low for the past year. 

About another pound and a half and I will be down to where I was when Braden was born.  And while it may not show much on the scale I got to tighten my belt to the next notch - now that's some incentive! 

I'm going to try to get back on a daily blogging schedule to keep my focus.  I plan on sharing my "go-to" breakfast and some surprising things that seem to be working.
