Getting back to routines

We had a great day at my mom’s house Sunday. And Colts made it to the Superbowl. Yay! Not that I watched any of the game, but you know, I support them completely in my mind.

It’s so great hanging out at my mom’s. Ella is so happy because she has a blast with her cousins. And Eva gets all kinds of love. And the food is awesome. It’s like being on vacation over there.

I stopped by a fitness club/raquetball club yesterday to get a class schedule. I thought it would be really good for me to go to an exercise class one night a week. But now that I’ve seen the place, I really want to join. It’s got a whole different vibe from the Y. I guess I didn’t really realize there are gyms that aren’t bright and busy and crowded with loud music and that meat market type feel. This felt like a spa almost. And all the equipment is new. Every cardio machine has it’s own TV. I’m really excited. And there is a Wednesday night class I should be able to make. I also plan to go once on the weekend. Other than that I’m not sure I can commit to more, but twice a week is a good start – then I can do somethings at home. I’m really excited to get back in prepregnancy shape. And hopefully better. So far I’m down 25 pounds – so 15 more to go.

Anyway, I also realized today my back-to-work day is Feb. 18. That is in three weeks! I had thought it would be a week later, but I forgot that I had Eva a week early. But I’m OK with it – I’m only working 2 days a week, so I’ll still be able to spend a lot of time with the kids. THE KIDS – still weird to say. But boy, time is flying. She’s already 5 weeks tomorrow. And she’s starting to make little cooing, cute baby noises. I love that.

OK, that’s enough for now. It’s time to relax!
