Feeling Better

I'm slowly getting back into the swing of things - I worked out today! Pete and I joined Lifestyles. After dropping the 'lil monkey off with Grandpa and Grandpa earlier this afternoon I hit up the gym in Hyde Park, which felt like I was working out at MacDoody's/The Dubliner. Meatheads galore. Oh well. But anyway, it felt great to hop on some of the machines and sweat. I'm avoiding spinning and pilates (for now) until the tailbone settles down. Gotta lose this baby weight and then some!

Getting Better

Just a quick note before bedtime - things around here are slowly but surely getting much better. Mia has been sleeping 6 - 8 hour stretches and getting more and more comfortable going on little daily adventures. Last weekend we cruised around Ybor (by day), checking out the Latin Festival, Octoberfest and a little of the USF game at a bar and grill. She was a rock star. Sunday she cheered on the Bucs with Uncle Corey. I guess for now she doesn't understand the not-so-nice things Corey calls the refs/other team, but next season is going to be a bit of a problem.

Today we tried Target for a second time together. First time was a disaster. This time, better. I'm getting pretty good at doing things super quickly. Get in and get out. I no longer linger looking for that perfect impulse buy. My kid doesn't let me, which hey is great because the Nuffers don't have impulse buys in their budget anymore.

Friday we are going to our first Mommy and Me class at Gymboree. Woo boy. Never thought I'd see the day - I'm actually looking forward to it. I hear we get to play with flashlights. I hope they let me take pics!

For he's a jolly good fellow!

Happy Birthday Dad!
