Boise, Here We Come!

I am so excited to go with Nick and Kingz MMA to Boise!
For those of you who don't know, he coaches a kid that has
been doing very well, 3-0. He won his last fight with a kick
to the head, and got a state record for fastest knock out.
Nick and I are making a trip out of it, and it is going to be
so much fun without the kids! I kinda feel bad sometimes
how excited I am to get away from them for a while, but
I feel like it is necesary for my sanity! I am so grateful to
both sides of my family for helping us with them.

Runing!!!

I am so excited about running(still). It makes me so happy that I've stuck with my goal so far. I am now up to running 1/2 mile intervals. I know it doesn't sound like much, but it was a lot of work to get to this point! Lost two pounds so far, also something that keeps me motivated. Wish me luck!

Cabbage Soup

Nick and I are trying the cabbage soup diet this week. Oh boy. All week long you eat this cabbage soup for every meal and snack. Then on certain days you can have fruit or veggies. We will see how it goes. We are on day two, and today is a little easier than it was yesterday, but I really, really miss my starches. I was supposed to make brownies for relief society tonight , HAH! I think not.
P.S. After a reall,y really long battle, Austin is now potty trained! Wahoo!

So, yes, I made the very traditional resolution to get in shape. But I am actually really excited to do it this time. I am going to become a runner! It makes me so excited that sometimes I get impatient when it is hard to just run for 5 minutes. But I am way excited for the chance running gives me to think, and do my body a ton of good. I am also excited to have that in common with my sister in laws Jaime and Celeste. I admire them both for bieng able to do that. I am just glad that I have finally made a goal that I am very determined to keep. It feels good. It is funny that being good about running is helping me do other things like read my scriptures. What a blessing.
