Well, I don't have anything exciting to report (yet again). But I am developing a strange issue with having an outdated blog. So I figure if I just ramble on about a few insignificant things that I will feel better about at least having something new up! Lol.
We just got Garrett signed up for T-ball and he will start in March. I am a little nervous that he won't like it. We got him in soccer last year and he got really frustrated with himself and gave up really fast. After that, every game he went to he just laid around on the field looking at the birds (literally) So I am really hoping that he gives himself a little more time to learn this new sport. He seems a little scared but after we went and got him a ball, tee, shoes, and a bat he was really excited. He has even gone outside on his own to practice. So I really hope it builds some confidence and helps him out. I just love that little guy so much! He and London are my whole world. I really want them both to be sooo happy.
My gym pass is going to expire in about a week and a half. At first I was really sad about it. I LOVE going and talking to all the neat people I have met there. Even the crazy workout addicts that are there at 5 am! But we couldn't afford to renew the pass. It was over 600 dollars! And Doug never could go during the hours they are open. So when we were at Sports Authority getting Garrett's baseball stuff, we saw a great deal on a treadmill. It is a Pro Form and was 1200 dollars. They got it in in Dec. 08 and so they put it on clearance so the new model could come in. Plus we decided to get the floor model because it was another 10 percent off. So we got a pretty decent treadmill for 300.00! I was really excited about it. My friend Candee has recruited me to running a half-marathon. So I have been running on a training schedule to get ready for that. It is pretty different running at home vs running at the gym. They both have their pros and cons. Working out at home strangely takes more discipline for me. I have so many distractions that sometimes it is hard to buckle down and do my workout. But I don't have to get up at four in the morning either! I can sleep in all the way too six when Doug leaves for work. So all in all I am so so so grateful to have a way to exercise at home. I hope I can get a hang of this whole running thing. I am so used to spinning and aerobics that just plain running is a little different for me. Wish me luck!
So there a just a couple things that are on my mind. If you are bored out of your mind then you can go look at some other blog! Hope all is well with everyone!

What we found worked for us for disciplining our home exercising (after we realized we hadn't used our elliptical in months) was to make a house rule that you couldn't watch tv or play video games unless you've exercised first. It didn't really work for me since I don't watch tv anyway (and I'm really lazy about exercising), but find something that you like to do every day and make a rule that you can't do that unless you've exercised. Good luck!
Thanks Mary! That is a good sugestion.
That is so cool that you're doing a half-marathon, because running is very difficult for me, so i admire anyone that runs! Run for the both of us, hehe.
Wow, who'd have thought that you would ever be training for a marathon! Where was this running woman in high school? Track would have been a lot funner with you there with me ;)Lol! Good luck with it though I sure wish I could join you, but I think I will wait till I have my baby before I start any new training programs.
Also I hope Garrett has fun with t-ball. I can't wait to get Bear playing.
Oh! When is the marathon?
