Taking the Plunge...

I did it. I decided to get a personal trainer. Today was my first day and it was crazy. My body was so sweaty and weak. It will be good to be strong again and build up my knee. Its been giving me problems lately. I decided this awhile ago because I am still in contract for Golds Gym and I try to go often I just don't really know what to do at the gym when I'm there. Now I have a much better idea and he's making me food journal. This stuff is so interesting to me. My trainer has been Mr. Utah TWICE, he's over 50 yrs old, and has trained the last two Miss Utahs. I'm posting a picture of him so you can laugh. He's a really nice soft spoken guy though, maybe a little rough on the language. I found out today that he has a son on a mission from his first marriage and his second wife passed away from cancer a year ago. He said young girls my age change fast, I told him he's got his work cut out for him, but I'm excited to see what happens. He's got me hooked on whey protien shakes. Anyone that wants any tips for the gym let me know or eating healthy, I'll try to share my knowledge through this expirence.
Meet Ted my 50 some year old trainer...

JUNE 8th 2009


Sad I guess Jon and I didn't take a picture together, but this is what we did on our anniversary. We worked, were parents, and thankfully we were able to go out for dinner at one of our favorite Sushi restaurants Windys Sukiyaki (thanks Wendy for the gift cert.). Maddie's teething now has 4 teeth. She's so whinny, don't get me wrong I love her to death I'm just waiting for all these teeth to come in. It was a good night though and we did go to dinner at a fun restaurant on Saturday. To Jon, thanks for putting up with me the last two, three years I guess. I love you and am grateful to have married my best friend. Oh yeah thanks for helping make such a cute baby.

Happy happy joy joy


So yesterday while cleaning my house, I found (drumroll please).....MY CAMERA! Hooray. We're happy to have it back, Maddie looks different everyday well slightly. I'm still hoping to get a big fancy one, but this will give me more time to save up for it. Also this morning as we were mourning the loss of our Bumbo chair, I had borrowed it from my neighbor but she is moving out today and wanted it back, I found one on KSL and for half the price that they cost at Walmart. We were over joyed to find out they still had it and as I type Jon is picking it up. If you don't know what the Bumbo chair is, you should find out. Maddie sits in it so well when she's outside, when she's eating, and occasionally when we don't feel like holding her we just sit her down. We had friends over last night for BBQ food, yum. I love anything grilled. We dug out our go anywhere Webber gas grill that we got as a wedding present almost 2 years ago (on Monday) and it worked really well considering the windy weather. Its been a good weekend and my house is half clean. I need to finish cleaning and setting up the bedrooms.

Rollin, rollin, rollin

This was just captured during my work shift, I kept hearing her cry and this is what I found. She's in the office play room, convenient huh? She has been rolling like a crazy and grunting. Sorry about my voice in these videos, wish I could silence them now. I also apologize about the kink now created in your neck. Still have no camera, I've been using my cell phone thats why these are far from quality. I think Maddie's teething again she's been so grumpy. Wait yes I have just confirmed this, one on top to the far right? Does the mean she'll have a huge gap? That's her 3rd tooth and she's just 7 mo, gotta wean this kid soon!

We went to Rexburg this last weekend. It was fun to stay with Destry, play with Katy, and visit Whitney. It was also fun to see Maddie interact with Destry's little boy, she's usually the youngest one so everyone picks on her. This time it was Maddie reaching for Hinder's poor eyes. He's a doll. Everything was fun till Jon messed up his elbow, cut a gash in it even the tendon was visible. He's in the process of healing, but still able to work thank goodness. My love hate relationship with his hobby of bmx.
