2 years and counting

We celebrated our 2 year anniversary this past week. We wanted to make it a special one, especially because our 1 year anniversary was a bit spoiled because of the large baby in my belly that had big plans to show up 2 weeks later. So, I put in quite a few hours searching for great deals on hotels and things to do in Utah. We ended up staying at the Hyatt in Park City.


We left William with family for 2 days. We started out early on monday morning. We packed in everything that we have wanted to do for the past year, but couldn't because we have a 3rd one.
We played golf.
We went to 7 peaks.
We got a pizza at Pier 49 and ate it on the road.
We checked into our hotel. (we were upgraded for free to a one bedroom suite which had a huge kitchen and living room along with a bathroom you could waltz in)
We walked around historic Park City (In very high heels, this was quite the feat) (plus, we were dressed to impress and the streets were full of biker-short-wearing grandparents. We could have just worn a sign that said "Tourists"...can you be a tourist if you live 45 min away?...)
We ate at a cute little bistro. We sat outside and felt so European until the sun went down and we snuck inside to finish the meal.
We soaked in the Hot Tub.
We watched Megamind. (Funny. Some people think Will looks like megamind :)
We made cinnamon rolls for breakfast in our huge hotel kitchen. (from a package, c'mon we were on vacation)
We went to the outlets and bought Will too many outfits, because by this time we were really missing him.

Then we came home because I had to go to work :( It was a nice little getaway.

Math?


This is my bed time snack tonight. A nectarine and a cupcake. I figure one is good for me and one is not...that means if I eat them both, it's like eating nothing, right? Right.
positive one plus negative one equals ZERO!
This is why I like math.

The new...or old...me


I'm on a journey to get back to pre-pregnancy-self. So, the new me, is really a quest for the old me. Don't worry, I'm not doing anything crazy. Just running 3 times a week and eating better. Man, fresh fruits and veggies suck the life out of our grocery budget! I have a handy little app on my phone that helps me track my exercise and weight loss. Honestly, I hate having to use a scale to measure my progress, but, there really isn't a better way, unless I want to spend hours with a tape measure a couple times a week.
This post is mostly so that I have to be more accountable. I start these health kicks all the time...usually they last a week. So far, I'm 3 weeks in and only missed one run day because will was in the hospital...more on that to come.

Camera Cord

I have been a horrible blogger as of late. We just found my camera cord, so, instead of boring you with words, I'll just let the pictures do the talking.
