Never thought about that one...

I was updating my work out lastnight on the traineo website when I noticed you can enter multiple workouts for one day and one of them included "sexual activity". haha! The hardest part about entering that information would be- knowing that everyone knew I had sex that day and them knowing if it was easy, medium, hard, or very hard!!! hahahaha.

They even have vaccuming on that one... I guess I'm burning more than I thought ;) Every little bit counts- I love that.

"Whats That..?"

If you are hanging around our house at all you will hear this phrase at least a thousand times a day from Kelson. She says this ALL THE TIME!!! She'll be in a screaming frenzy then stop and points and asks "Whats That?" I guess she got it from us asking her whats that over the year and she's finally asking us now :)

Fun Facts:
The other day while I was at work, Aunt Theana (aka Aunt Toodles) was trying like heck to put Kelson down for a nap- rocking her, changed her, etc... but Kelson was not having it, so Toodles finally put her down in her bed and left the room. Kelson started screaming her head off- big crocodile tears and everything, so Lucy went in there to see what her deal was and she completely stopped crying, smiled, and pointed and said What's that??" She's so funny sometimes.

Aunt Theana is now called Aunt Toodles- for those of you who watch the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse will be familiar with this phrase. Those of you who don't- Toodles is the little gadget that brings the Disney characters any item that they may be needing at that time. Theana is the same way- she is ALWAYS right there to grab or fetch anything that you may need. We love her for being this way and she's such a HUGE help! Love you Aunt Toodles.

Kelson LOVES the vaccum cleaner these days. Anytime we walk into the room where it is- she of course points and says "Whats That?".. she laughs when I turn it on and vaccum- she even likes to push it. I thought the loud noise would scare her, but nope. She must get that "love of cleaning" gene from her Memere ;)

Keeping Kelson Happy Rule #1: After getting her diaper changed at Memere's house, she must kiss most or all of the ceramic disney characters up on her shelf. She looks forward to doing this each time and cries if you forget. Most of the time you asking her where her disney babies are- is what keeps her still on the table and not flipping over.
She is so particular. What a Drama Queen :) hehe!

Another cute thing Kelson's been doing lately- she will hug her baby dolls. Like give them HUGE kisses and hugs (rocking back and forth)- its so the sweetest thing. Then she passes them to whomever to do the same thing.

Kelson woke up during the night lastnight and Jason had a DRAMA IN THE NIGHTmoment. hahaha! I couldn't help but CRACK UP at him. I fixed it- even in the dark- yee haw. Go me!

-We are working on signing "help"- like I'm in need of help
-Still no walking on her own, but she's getting close
-Has had more bumps/bruises in the last month than in her year of being here

I'm back.....

Well i did it- I went to the gym lastnight- and Stacey didn't even come- BOO on her ;) but I did have two other friends show up that were there. I love that Body Combat class- I just have to "put on my shoes and go"- as Allison stated- thanks girl for the boost ;) I think going lastnight gave me that extra boost I've been waiting for. I have SEVERAL friends that work out there, so that will help when I'm not feeling into going- they can push me to go. I'm excited again! Yea! I weighed on the scale and it wasn't too bad either, so that was a HUGE plus for me. Its time to get serious- eating better- to the gym at least 4 days a week- and getting healthy.
I really thought about it lastnight and I think getting into a HOT halloween outfit this year will be my motivation. I have two more months, so that's a big incentive to keep pushing. A lot can happen in two months :)
My sister pushing herself so hard too- that is another motivator for me. I want to see her this Christmas and both of us look OH SO HOT ;)

Wish me luck and come join me at the gym if you feel up to it ;) hehe!

Nobody knows the trouble I see... Nobody knows my sorrow..

Lately I've had NOOOOO desire to get back to the gym. I hate that too because I really like working out and feeling better about myself. I love to try on an outfit and feel like I look good in it. I just haven't gotten that boost yet and I'm not sure when its gonna come. I recently won our "biggest loser" competition and that was a big help for me, but I just feel down about it all and don't care. I texted my workout partner lastnight and told her that I needed her to motivate me and push me (she's been slacking too, but only because she's been working a lot), so I think we are gonna try to get back on track TOGETHER. I just feel like I'm soooo tired all the time (mommyhood maybe?) and I know working out will help boost that feeling, so I want to get back into it. I've had a lot of things on my mind lately- and I'm sure that has reason to due with the NO desire emotion, so I pray that I will just forget all the stress and continue to a healthier me. Normally I have a "REASON TO GET FIT" but right now I don't feel like I have one. I am doing that "biggest loser" competition with Keri and her friends, but I feel like I have no chance since guys are competiting and they are already 2 weeks into it and they are SERIOUS competitors- which is awesome. The cash sure would be nice- and so would losing my desired weight, but I just can't seem to get into it. In the past I had a HUGE reason to get into shape- CMA and ACM award shows... how can you not- being amongst celebrities, etc.. Plus Jason was getting thinner and I couldn't have him doing that without me ;) So I just have to find that motivator again. I'm thinking it might be a "HOT HALLOWEEN COSTUME" this year... a few years back I was Batgirl and good lord- I want to have that body again- I was pretty hot! So anyways, I think the people who you are around make a huge difference and their desires to get fit fall on you.
Maybe I can convince Jason and Stacey to both step it up so we can all get FIT together, then I will follow along. I want to not only look good, but feel good too. Esp for my baby girl.

BTW- my sister is kicking butt in the competition- she's at the gym religiously and always doing diff workout routines. I'm soooo proud of her. Her gym sounds so awesome- a swimming pool, etc.. I want that, but good ole Riveria will have to do for now :)
