Working Out and Getting in Trouble

I have been working out every single day that we have been home.  I took one complete rest day and I have had some stretching days mixed in.  If I don't get my workout done in the morning, I am not in the best mood the rest of the day.  It helps so much to get moving, have a bunch of water and wake up for the day.  This is no different than any other time in my life, but probably even more important since I am not leaving the house.  Exercise helps the mood tremendously!   I've also surpassed my first weight loss goal which was to get down to 132 lbs which was my pre-pregnancy weight.  I wanted to get to that weight before Finley's 1st birthday and so far I have crushed it.  I weighed in at 125 lbs this morning.  I'd like to get to 120 by the time we go to the beach and stay at that weight.  I think I feel my best around that weight and more importantly just toned by working out.  I have wayyyy more energy if I get a workout in each day!

I'd be lying if I said it was easy to do while I am home with Finley and Jeff is at work.  Toots is all over me if I have any exercises on the floor and I often have to contend with her climbing up my legs during the middle of cardio.  Some days it just doesn't work and I have to wait until her nap time.  Other days she loves the music and is content to dance around and play with her toys. 



Mama's little helper is also into everything!  I turned around while putting the dishes away and this is what I found! 


This is one of my favorite pictures EVER!




This week we also decided that instead of having toys strung out all over the living room each day that a new play area was need to at least corral the toys in one area.  We took apart the dining room table and put it downstairs for the time being.  This makes it easier for me to rotate toys in and out of her bedroom as well.


Ugh, back to colder weather...please just get warm!


Toots did not want to go to sleep last night without ONE more book.  Ha!
