Weekends Are to Short

OK so the last post about my 5 mile day well it did me in. I was so sore this weekend. And now I am getting a killer head cold :( I was not able to get to the gym today so I am going to head out and put a mile in with the boys and the stroller.

Back to the weekend. Saturday was a nice day for me. I was able to get out and go get an ice cream with Missa and just hang out and talk. Kev had a day full of March Madness and enjoyed just chilling at home. Sunday I got to take D'alice, Grandma Stokes and Aunt Myk to DISNEY ON ICE!! It was so much fun. This is my 3rd Disney on Ice and I have to say this one was by far my favorite. I will post pictures soon.

Day 2

So I stuck with it. I got up and made it to the gym at 6am once again today. I put in a mile on the elliptical then hurried back home. I was feeling so good that I decided to get the stroller out and time a few walks. I walked from my house to the gas station grabbed a Diet Mt. Dew and back home that took 25 mins . Then I walked to the river walk 8 mins. Then walked the river walk 1 hr both ways. When we got back home we used google map to map the distance for all of the walks. To walk to the gas station and back it is just over 1 mile. To walk to the river walk it was almost exactly a mile then the river walk is 1 mile both ways. So my total for the day was 5 miles!! I am a little sore now but I know it will pay off :) I think I am going to try and do that walk 2-3 times a week. I hope others will come and join me. If I can drop 20lbs by July that would be awesome! I really don't want to be the "fat" sister in all of the pictures at Kiera's wedding :)

New Year... New Me

Ok so it has been a year since I last posted. The reason I told myself I was to busy. Well I am not going to let that nasty little voice in my head tell me what I have time for or not.

So as most of you know I had my 3rd and final baby in November. Gage Makin Loveland. He is the cutiest little guy. He looks just like his daddy! Right down to the brown eyes!! I was so excited to finale have a brown eyed baby. Well with 3 kids keeping me busy all day everyday I am having a hard time finding time for myself. So here is what I am going to do for myself. I am going to get my body back and blog about it. I need the accountability or I wont do it. So here we go :)

Starting weight 179 lbs. I hope to never see that number again. I have been saying that I can't find time to go to the gym so today I got up at 5:30 fed and changed Gage. put him back to bed and headed to the gym instead of going back to bed like I always do. I only got in 30 mins on the eliptical but it was something and I am proud of that.

I am looking forward to the weather warming up because I am going to start a walking group. I will invite anyone who wants to come and join me but if no one can make it I will still go.

So here is to a New Year and a New Me :)

Going Crazy

So the kids have been going crazy being inside the house all winter so we decited to bundle up and go to the park and zoo and have a little lunch. The kids had so much fun and can't wait to do it again when it warms up and there are more animals out. Here are a few pictures of our day.

D'alice wanted to take pictures of all of the animals. I only posted one of the many she took.

D'alice had so much fun at the park she had to try it all out.

Tai was nervious to try the swing but once he was in it we could not get him out to try anything else.

Fun Projects

So I have been working on some fun Easter/ Spring decorations and thought I would show them off. I have been working on Mod Podge and it is so much fun I just keep doing more things. So far I have done 12 eggs (all different) and a pot. I want to go get some letters and spell out easter for my next project.
