Adventures

We had spent the previous day indoors waiting and waiting for a MAC collection to launch. This is all my fault. My poor little lady. She was such a trooper and we did keep busy. The following day, I thought it would be good to get out and get some fresh air. We ended up here:

 Such a nice view. The place we went to go down to see the water, had A LOT of spider webs. I don't think anyone has been down this way in a long time.

 She wanted to hold my hand, aw.

 Mean muggin' G!
Unfortunately, she was not feeling the greatest. I didn't find that out until after her nap...which happened once we got home.

 Fun fact: M and I took maternity photos here when I was pregnant with G. :)

 Checking out what was falling from the tree. Acorns.

 I tried zooming in on this picture, well on her face, because she was mean muggin' again!

 She thought it was funny. :)

Until next time!

She loves gymnastics!

 

Cutest little gymnast I ever did see!

She is loving her tumbling class. I signed her up last month for a parent/child tumbling class. She really enjoys it. I do too. She can now do summer-salts on her own and she finally went down the long trampoline all by herself! I'm so proud of her. She is obsessed with the rings. She wants to spend all of her time on them. :) She loves gymnastics movies, too.

A lot has happened

Typical title for someone who hasn't written in about 5 months. Ha!

But seriously, a lot has happened.

1) We are no longer in Arizona. We came back (road trip) the last week in July. Hardest thing I've ever done? Yes. It was heartbreaking but it was what was best.

2) Finally got unpacked and settled. A month (or so) later my very best friend, Rachel, came to visit us for 10 whole days! She just left on the 17th.

 3) Now we are going to get back on schedule just in time for us to leave to Arizona, in October, for a quick visit. We will only be there for 3 whole days.

4) My sister is getting married!

5) Mario's sister will be visiting us for Thanksgiving!

6) TTC baby #2!

So a lot has been going on and we have a lot coming up still. But that is the jist of it all.

For now, I am working on a daily flexible schedule for Gabby and myself. Being a SAHM, I feel like we need a little more structure in our day to still feel like we are contributing to the world somehow, or at least I do. Know what I'm saying?

On top of all of this, I need to get back into the swing of running and TIU. Specially when we start trying for baby #2. This time, I want to stay active throughout my pregnancy. With Gabby, I was active but once I was about 6 weeks along, I quit running all together. Bad choice! So hoping this time will be different. I signed up to be an official TIU girl this summer. I did the Bikini Series and I met my goal in a weeks time. But with the move, I unfortunately didn't stay on track and I gained it all back and then some. Boo. Back to square one.

I hate when you get in the groove of things and then you quit. It happens to me all the time with running. I get up to running 4 miles almost every day and I quit. I go through spurts where I post here then all of a sudden I fall off the map.

I realize this post is all over the place.

I have a few ideas for my blog. Obviously, posting consistently. I'm thinking hoping, Monday and Wednesday -- every week. Posts about, mommyhood, daily life, fitness/TIU, beauty, etc! I'll work out some sort of schedule for this, too. :)

I missed you, blogger!

Easter Basket

I made Gabby's Easter basket!

I saw this randomly (I forget where) and really wanted to make one. It was easier than I though. I am not a crafty person AT. ALL. I think it came out cute! The only thing I might do is trim the tulle a little bit more. But,

I still have to buy things to fill it up. I am going to run to Walmart today for that. I'm so excited for her to see it and search for eggs!

Snow Play, dinner dates, 2 week notice

I can't!

Gabby's first time out in the snow was on Wednesday. She LOVED it! We only stayed out for about 15min but she loved very second. I got cute video of her :) 

Her little hands <3 she had on two pairs of gloves. 

She's so tiny! I don't want her to grow anymore!

Going to take her out in it as much as we can before March 9th!!

Thursday, we met up with the girls from work, at Red Lobster. 

She was such a good sweet girl the whole night :)

We all have a work wifey, right? Here's mine! I will miss her so much :( 

The gang! It was fun to see everyone, I'll miss you all!

February 14th, is my last day at work. Crazy to think. I've been there for almost 3 years. I'll miss the people but won't miss the actual job. 

One chapter comes to an end, and a new chapter begins.
