Work It Out

I started my new workout routine today! I haven't worked out since, um, May. Shameful, I know. Grandma and Grandpa watched my baby boy while I went to the 1 hour spin class at the gym. Can I just say, HOLY FRACK!? Those seats on the bikes are NOT okay! Haha! If it wasn't for them I might actually go to another class, but I don't see that happening.

Running is much more my "thing," and I just downloaded the Couch to 5K app. to my iTouch. My BFF, Autumn, used the app. to prepare for the 5K run for breast cancer (go girl!), so I have proof it will work. ;D I'm looking forward to starting that tomorrow.

At the school where my family works they go on the block schedule, so every other day (A days & B days, how clever) they have different classes. The plan is for me to go to the gym on A days when my parents have a long lunch, and have Bobby hang out in the office with them. On B days I will either do Baby & Mommy Yoga on DVD, or use the situp bench we got my brother for Christmas. Woo Hoo!

The alone time today was nice (thank you so much, mama & daddy-o!), but nothing can beat the way my son reacted to seeing me after nearly 2 hours apart. Big smile, eyes lit up and the sweetest giggles... bliss. I am so blessed.

Still Here!

I’ve been such a lame blogger! Robert is now 4-months-old and so much has happened over the last couple months; we celebrated his 100 Day Birthday, a Korean tradition, by enjoying a lovely meal with Korean friends and sharing rice cakes with friends and strangers. We also celebrated baby’s first Christmas as a family, which was wonderful. God has blessed us by bringing us all together again… its great!

Being a stay-at-home-mom is cool! I enjoy our routine and having my boy to myself during the day. The winter here is cold… especially for this Texas girl… so we spend most days at home taking care of business. A few times a week we will go hang out with the family at school, which is fun! Bobby even has his own little “crib” in Mama’s office made of a boot storage locker! Lol! On days that Uncle Tripp has off work, we like to wander down town and have a great Korean or Thai lunch – YUM!

I’m SO happy with how quickly I’ve lost the baby weight, and am thisclose to getting my old skinny jeans to button closed! This Sunday marks the start of a new workout routine for this mama! Spin class on Sunday, then the iTouch Couch to 5k program on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and hopefully Mom & Baby yoga video at home Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I’ll be in those bad boy jeans once again! (Side note: I saw a thing on the news where a UK poll found that women fantasize more about fitting into their skinny jeans than they fantasize about sex. Go figure! ;) )

My RC Cola is nearing the end of his morning nap, so I should get some work done before he wakes up. I will try to update on here more often. <3
