I joined the GYM!
This is huge news. I have been wanting to go to the gym since it was built by our house. We just haven't had the money to do it and my cute hubby really doesn't care for the gym sucking money out of your account on a monthly basis.
But out of the blue last week he said I could go as long as I didn't make him go too :)
So on Labor Day I went in to see if I could get a guest pass. Let's just say I went back to do a class the next night and the manager and his salesperson were very rude to me about not signing up yet. They were irritated that I wanted to try it out first.
So I walked out thinking I would go to a different gym. I looked online at the schedules and they just weren't what I wanted. So I went back to LA but went to a different location to sign up on Friday. The girl was very nice but didn't want to give me the best deal. So I went to walk out again without a membership when she said that since I had a bad experience and was coming back to them that she would call the VP of sales and see what they could do.
Within an hour I had my deal and walllaaaa... it is official. Last week I did a Bodyworks, Step and a Cycle class. Then I went with my awesome neighbor to work out and we did weights and the eliptical. It is so much fun.
Yesterday I did another Step class and it kicked my butt worse than it did last week. But it feels good to work out so hard. I'm also already starting to see results in my body which is always a great thing to help keep you motivated to keep going.
We didn't go this morning and my kids kept asking "mom do we get to go to the gym today?" I guess I'm not going to have a day off very often with them keeping me going. I'm very happy about that and that they like it so much.
Lauren is excited because she is making lots of new friends. Whenever I go to pick her up she has kids waving goodbye to her. She is really turning into an outgoing kid. Last year at school she was pretty shy but this year she is really putting herself out there and loving all the new friends she is making.
Reagan likes to go and play with his sister. He is still a little small to be making friends but at least he enjoys going. He also is acting as a protector for his sister because she had a little boy who was mean to her last week and Reagan yelled at him to stop. So cute that he is already being protective of his sister.
Tomorrow will be Bodyworks again!

Oh, I want to go to the gym. I'm so jealous!! I'm told there is a time and season for all things and apparently my time has not come. Maybe when my twins are a little older.

I found your blog on Tiffani Benson's and had to visit. I have had such a fun time getting to know Reagan in nursery, now that my boys are in there with him. What an amazing little boy!! He is so full of life and eager to learn. I'm still so amazed that he knows his letter and sounds already. Like I said, he is amazing!!

Hi Jenifer,
I checked your blog earlier in the summer & was wondering how things were going since you weren't posting. Now, apparently, I've missed a bunch of stuff! Love seeing the pics of the kiddos & hearing about how things are going. We've missed you at the guatemamas! :-)

I remember you told me you had a blog, but I'm just now finding it. I'm sad I didn't find it sooner! It is so cute! Your kids are so cute. Reagan is such a hoot in nursery, and is slowly coming out of his shell and talking more. I love it! I'm hoping for a call soon from my visiting teachers, hint..hint
