Weekend Recap...

By 9pm tonight all my boys were asleep in bed and that meant quiet time for me! It also meant me finishing off the Cheetos in the pantry (supposed to be a treat for the kids - I know...they don't need them either). Damn it! Why!?!?! Why does food call my name and when did I lose my ability to say NO! It was NOT a good food weekend. As we were eating at The Cheesecake Factory (!!!!!!) today the Hubs and I made a pact to eat perfectly clean the next 5 days. We will check in with each other and hold each other accountable! I'm so happy to have him doing this with me!

On the healthier side of things....we joined the local Y this weekend! We had a babysitter on Thursday night and our previous plans fell through so date night consisted of meeting at the gym for a workout, going to the Y to register the family and then going to a reasonably healthy dinner. Date nights sure have changed around our house. We will still keep our membership at our regular gym, Anytime Fitness...open 24 hours and 2 miles from our doorstep, however we are adding in the Y so we have more options with classes, babysitting and the pools! The Y is about 15 minutes from the house, but their outdoor pool is less than a mile from us so that will be great for the summer. Now we could just find more time in the day! We also like the cardio equipment at the Y much better. They have loads of different machines and a lot more of them.

This was a busy weekend....Friday night was a minor league baseball game with fireworks. The kids did fairly well...it's going to be so much fun to go to events like this when they are just a tad bit older and able to understand it all a little more. Saturday morning Hubby was up early and at the gym, then he took our oldest (4) to tee-ball practice and to a movie. I took the "baby" (3) to run some errands and then dropped him at the Y babysitting for an hour while I did cardio. After that he and I played in the pool for a while. Jeff and Carlton met us there....Carlton wanted nothing to do with the pool so they played outside. Then it was out to dinner (550 cal meals at Applebees). Today we left the house about 10am with the intention of going to breakfast. That led to a bunch of errands...haircut for the little guy, new shoes for the kids, craft store, mall, dinner....not home until 6pm. Wasn't the day I had planned, however we got a lot done. Everyone is worn out and I'm enjoying the quiet house for a few minutes before I go pass out.

I took a biking break this weekend because we were busy and I haven't felt 100% the past few days. I hope to get back on the bike this week.

I'm looking forward to a great (and healthy) week....I hope you all have one as well!
