4 Miles

Well…Week 6 already. I must admit, I am very fortunate to not have gained any this week.  I was a bit ticked off after last week (worked out, ate well, lost nothing). While I ate well, I did not work out. Once.

But it's a new week.  And I'm encouraged again. And I'm not joining Weight Watcher's yet. James found this site that lets you track calories, workouts and your goals. And I'm coming up with a better workout plan to factor in for the nights I have things happening, so I won't be skipping those nights.

I was reading this site, as she described the changes she's seen in the last 3 months after keeping up with her healthy eating & working out.  Three months.  I'll be 33 in 3 months.  I'd like to see some changes before then, I can't keep this up.

SO…new plan is in place. Today. 

Today I saw a glimpse into my future with the boys. Alex is beginning to want to do EVERYTHING Will does.

Sometimes this is cute. We went for a walk and Will found a dandelion. He picked it and started to blow the seeds off. Alex came running over, trying to blow as well (but he can't get air out yet, it just results in spitting).  Will got all the seeds off and threw the stem aside.  Alex wasn't content to just help blow on that one. We continue walking and I watched him walk over to the side of the road, pick a long blade of grass and try to blow that.

I just had to shake my head and laugh. Earlier in the morning it was a bit more frustrating.  We were outside and I was reading a book to Will on the swing. Alex went into the house, got his "own" book and brought it back out to me to read to him. It's tricky trying to read two books at the same time–he was not content to listen to Will's book.

Hmmm…I see some competition issues up ahead.
