Getting Active

I have a new outlook on working out and I am determined to lose the weight that I gained over Xmas. Not sure how it all came on so quickly but I packed on some lbs this holiday. Guess I figured I would get fat from a baby anyhow... didn't happen..... so now I am back on the wagon. I got a personal trainer and I am motivated. I have started a group circuit training plan and it is actually fun. I am packing workout clothes and I will work out when I travel. No more flabby ass for me! So the weekend is filled with workouts I can incorporate in with family fun and I am scheduling time during the week. If people try to schedule over that time, look out. I am on a mission.

I should do a before and after photo but I don't think I want to show everyone my big arse.

Gavin is learning his alphabet thanks to a great video by Leapfrog. He knows almost every letter and how it sounds. It is really fun. He can sound out his name and points out letters all the time. When I say something like....You are a little monkey... he says... I am not a monkey, I am Gavin. He is so much fun right now.

We started putting little underwear on his stuffed animals in the hopes he will want to wear them as well. He is showing some interest now and then but not much in the potty training. In time I guess he will come around.

We went for a great hike in Avila this weekend. Found a new trail that I cannot mention because Steve wants to keep it hidden. There was no one on it. Reminded me of the trails up in the Bay Area that I loved. Great view of the ocean when you get to the top.

Steve is on his last week of break before he goes back to school. He is going to the snow with Gavin and we are meeting up in Carmel for the weekend to see Nana.
