So a lot has happened in the last year...actually it has been over a year since I posted something on here.  I guess I just got sick of posting stuff:) 

Where to begin...Well I guess I should start by saying I understand the second child syndrom a little better now.  When my first nephew was born I posted pictures and when he was born and how much he wieghed and the whole nine yards.  Well I have a second nephew now and no he isn't a newborn.  Jonathan Edward was born March 7th at 6:57pm he was 7lbs 9oz and  20.5".  3 months after the fact I am blogging about it.  So sad!! 

 

In other news I turned 30 and yes I feel old...I definitly take longer to recover after a softball game than I used to and I go to bed way earlier than I used to!!  So if that is being old then I guess I am there:)  One reason for my early bedtime is that I get up and work out before work.  I know me working out...hasn't happened in a while.  Back in the fall the ladies in my office and I started a jar and did a biggest loser contest.  For every lb lost you had to put a quarter in the jar.  Winner takes the jar at the end of the biggest loser season.  Well it ended up only 2 of us actually ended up doing it and we split the jar at the end.  One day before we started they were guessing who would last the longest and one of them said nobody would finish.  They actually said I wouldn't last 2 weeks.  Well that was enough motavation for me.  Besides the fact that the winner gets to keep the money:)  So last Oct I changed the way I ate and started working out.  I started by biking and lifting some weights 5 days a week.  That continued for about 5 months until it got nice enough to run outside.  I know the word run and Gail never go in the same sentence at least not long distances.  I mean that is why I was a goalkeeper:)  Now I run 2 miles 3 times a week and do some fun exercise ball exercises and I have lost 57lbs.  I feel great and I actually like running.  I am not to the love stage yet and I don't know that I will ever get to that but it is at least enjoyable:)

 

I am getting ready to move.  I have lived in my current apartment for 3 years which is the longest I have stayed in one place.  So I am a bit sad to be leaving it.  Heather just bought a house and I will be renting a room from her.  !!  We are getting ready to start on the painting and updating a few rooms this weekend and next week.  She is moving in next weekend and I am moving in shortly after that.  I will post pictures later.  We went through and did before pictures last night.  Anyway it should be an adventure and will give me something to blog about as the renovations start!!

 

I hope you enjoy the update...I will post some before and after pics of my weight lose!
