New year new you!

Okay, so I know it is cliche but my new years resolution this year was to get in shape. Don't get me wrong, I feel really great about my weight. However, there is a vacant lot where my ass used to reside and I am not thrilled. I am not quite sure when it happened but it happened. So anywho, I was so excited to start running and got a few apps for the iPhone and since then I have gotten sick, my back has been a mess, we had the freaking weather from hell, and so on! So needless to say I am a little frustrated. So here is my public commitment to getting fit! I thought I would post before and after pics but I am not quite sure how I feel about that one yet. We will see how things go. My goal is to do a sprint triathlon before the year is out so here's to it! I will keep you updated on my progress.

Baby girl!

Lily just turned 8 months on the 12th. I know, I am a bad mom and didn't get to it until now! Anywho, she is pulling up on everything, driving her big brother absolutely crazy, and now has her two bottom teeth. She is such a crazy baby. She is so loud and never stops smiling. It makes for fun picture taking! We love you baby girl!

I used to be a girl???

This morning's conversation with Aiden went a little something like this:

Aiden: "Lily stop it! You're getting my cars all wet! No biting stuff!"

me: "Aiden Lily is just a baby she doesn't understand. She has little teeth coming in and they hurt. She chews on stuff to help her teeth feel better."

Aiden: "Noooo, she doesn't have teeth."

me: "Yes, look. She has two little teeth coming in, see."

Aiden: "Why her biting my cars?"

me: " I just told you. Her teeth hurt and it makes them feel better to chew on things. When you were a little baby, you were just like Lily. You had teeth coming in and you would chew on stuff too. Mommy and daddy let you because we knew you were just trying to make your teeth feel better."

Aiden: (lightbulb goes off) "Oh, when I was a baby I was a girl."

me: "No Aiden you weren't a girl you just..."

Aiden: "Yeah mommy I was a girl when I was a baby."

me: "No Aiden you...."

Aiden: "I WAAAS A GIIIIRRL!"

Me: "Want to go to Target with mommy?"

Aiden: "Okay."

You can't win them all!
