S'no Excuse!

Winter is officially here...  It snowed today!  It's only November 8th and we had snow!  Sadly, the first thing I thought was "ooooo, today would be a great day to sleep in!"  Well, Dillon and our cable had other plans!  Dillon woke up at 7 and climbed into bed with me, I put on the tv and snuggled in with my little guy only to find out that our wacky New England weather had apparently shocked our cable and it was out.  This meant NO SLEEPING IN, NO GOING BACK TO BED EVEN FOR AN HOUR.  UP, UP, UP! 

We went downstairs and as I usually do on Mondays, I made pancakes- the batch makes enough to eat until at least Wednesday if not more!  Dillon and I sat down and ate breakfast- pancakes with syrup and a yogurt for him, pancakes with a smudge of peanut butter for me.  By 8:15 we were ar Curves ready to work out.  Not gonna' lie, I don't remember the last time i was anywhere at 8:15, especially not aa gym!  (Yea, me!)  We worked out- I say we because Dillon likes to dance around on the cardio squares with me!  Then it was off to the store to get a few things we needed (and of course, a few things we didn't need!)

I really wanted to go home and wait for Dillon's naptime so that I could sleep too!  My parents had other ideas, they decided to come over and help on some projects around the house.  As disappointed and exhausted as I was, it was good to get some projects done AND it made me keep moving and keep working! 

Tomorrow we go for family pictures for the first time since last Christmas and 31 lbs. lighter for me~  Needless to say, I am pretty excited to see pictures of me that I actually feel confident enough to be in!  YEA!  So, after Kristen and I hit the gym tomorrow, I will try and tire Dillon out a bit and get him down for a nap early (fingers crossed) so that I can "beautify" and then get him up in time for a bath and get over to our pictures!  Another busy,  busy day!
I've been trying to walk to the gym as often as I can or as often as Dillon will allow, it's just a little added exercise!  But, when I woke up this morning I was thinking that walking would be over- well, why?  I have a stroller that I can bundle Dillon in, and I have clothes to bundle me in!  The walk is 15 minutes on a slow day, I can do it!  (Today by 8 the snow had changed over to rain, so I wasn't going to walk in a cold winter rain, but snow on the ground will not be an excuse for not getting in a little extra cardio!)  Weather permitting, I will try and continue walking to the gym everyday! 

S'NO EXCUSES!!!

Have a fabulous week!!!
