It's been a long time....

It's been a long long long time since my last post ....

So what's new???

New baby ... check
New daily routine that I am still not accustomed to ... check
Wanting to run to lose the baby chub ... check


So good news ... I have been able to run due in main part to my awesome parents who watch my daughters!  I did the Glass Slipper Challenge down in Walt Disney World ... that in itself is a blog post on it's own.

Signed up for the inaugural Naperville Women's Half Marathon in a month, I'm excited for that.  I also signed up for the Chicago Marathon ... first marathon folks... am I reaching too high?  I hope not, between my Ironman husband and if I get into the race, my schedule will be insane.  Bring the challenge  :)

How about that Disney race ....

Ah Disney ... The most magical place on the planet.  I have hundreds of memories from going to Disney as a child from ages 4 - 15, at least once a year, sometimes twice.  Easily about 20 times in my lifetime.  So having the chance to run into Magic Kingdom through Cinderella's castle, not to mention the amazing medals that you can get ...

Holidays .. dont' forget about YOU Mommy!!

The holidays are just around the corner ... so many things come to mind .. who is hosting, what do I make, my holiday list is how long again, and they want WHHAAT!!  UGH ... what about you Mommy, where are you on this list, where are you on the list of priorities?  My husband works pretty crazy hours, I have dubbed myself a "Single, not Single Parent" ... I don't have to worry about how to pay the bills and keep a roof over my family's head, but I do have to make sure my girls are well taken care of.  Thankfully my village of sanity includes my awesome parents that give me a hand pretty often.  I digress ... so how do I find time for myself? Number 1 - Exercise - Yes!  Love me some FIT4MOM, but right now with my 3 year old's schedule, I can't make any classes .. so my second LOVE of exercise life .. Burn Boot Camp.  Membership comes with childcare and thankfully my 3 year old loves it in there and runs in with excitement to play with the different toys....
