It's Friday!

Happy Friday Yall!!
   I can not SHOUT it enough how happy I am that it is Friday!! Wohoo!!  I have my product training tonight with Rob Graf, who was the former strength and conditioning coach for the Detroit Lions and Texas A&M. So it should be pretty good! Looking forward to learning from him.  I am currently writing this at work because our computer program we use is down and has been down for the past couple of hours. I am using my time wisely. :)
   Last night, to get it some physical activity I did some lunges, push ups, and squats while Brylee and my husband played in the pool, and I am so sore today. Ahh, how I have missed that feeling. ;)  I have to report also, (again) that I did not make it to the gym.  UGh! My alarm went off and I was feeling rested but then Brylee woke up, and Roger had an upset stomach, so it was pretty much a lost hope after that and trying to get her back to sleep.  Ah, well, I will go to tonight maybe after the meeting.  Can't wait to post what all I learn about the AdvoCare Performance line tonight!

I'll leave you with some pictures of Bry the last few nights.....


LOL! She is such a stinker!

Step class and tee ball

I finally made it to an aerobic class at a new gym I have a short pass yesterday. I got there early to make sure I got Brylee situated in the child care area ok.  This was her first time going and I was a little nervous at how she would go in, and then act when I left. But she did awesome!!  I did 30 min on the elliptical then went to a 45 minute step class. I was soooo lost during it but it was pretty fun!  There was another girl there and she said it was pretty confusing to her also and that that class was only her third time to go.  She was great for it only being her third time.  Too make it even worse for me I have absolutely no rhythm!!  Even at church I can't even clap on beat so you can only imagine what I look like in there! It's ok I don't care if you laugh ;) 
     I didn't make it to the gym today. Brylee had a tee ball game at 6pm.  That seems to be the absolute worst time for her to have any activity. She is just too tired. She falls asleep on the drive, then is a booger bear to wake up, and then is just grumpy and tired for the game. She wouldn't run or hit the ball or anything.  But it was too stinking hot today and her little cheeks got so red.  We have another game this Saturday morning which is her pictures. This should be fun.  Maybe if I don't go she will behave. 
     In other news, I still haven't heard anything regarding that position I want at work. But still not losing hope!  I am just so frustrated at how the slackers get to keep a job and the ones that are there on time, and work a full day, are the ones being let go!!  Ugh! I know that everything will work out in the end, I know it!
     I had my meal replacement shake today for breakfast, along with my Spark fruit punch, then for snack I had some snap peas and hummus. The white bean hummus is awesome!! Even Roger eats it up.  (and by the way he is down 2 more lbs)
It is soooo good!!
 
Then for lunch I had an AdvoBar with strawberry-mango Spark!  Helps me make finish the day strong.  For supper we went to Newks after the game and I had some chicken tortilla soup.
 
I am setting my alarm for 4:45 in the am and I hope I make it to the gym for a spin class. We have dinner plans and then we are going to an AdvoCare training to learn more about the products!! I can't wait! Going to be a great day. Goodnight all!
 
One more thing before I forget, if you guys don't mind, please keep a dear friend and her mother in your prayers.  Her mom just got diagnosed with stage III lung cancer. Please pray that they stay strong and remain faithful. Thanks!

   I have been MIA for the fast few weeks. I am still here, just a lot been going on. My brother, sister-in-law and niece have been back in Arizona for a week now, and I had another AdvoCare Mixer at my home the Thursday after they left, so I had been busy spending time with them, and then cleaning like a mad women to get my house presentable.  I terribly miss all of them and boo hooed like a baby when they left. I have also been dealing with some stress at work.  As of Sept 14, my position will be terminated. I am deeply saddened by this and just not sure yet what the Lord wants me to do.  I know that if I am faithful he will provide no matter what.  I am trying to stay positive and keep in mind that the Lord will not give you more than you can handle. But it is a little scary. I have applied for a different position within my company so if you think about it please keep me in your prayers! I would greatly appreciate it.
     My workouts have been pretty minimal as of late. It's so hard for me to get back into my routine once I get out of it and it was hard to stay at it when I had company for 3 weeks. I have slowly been getting back to that as well.
  Here are some photos I have taken since I have been gone from the blogging world.  I plan to be back and up with posts tomorrow as usual.

These are out of order, but this was today and she is pushing Baby Gabby around in her stroller

 This is how Brlyee eats an ice cream cone ;)

 So Messy!


 Worn out after an afternoon swimming.


 Pappy and Baby Gabby
 
 

Gabby is a lil daredevil!

They're here!!!

  Tuesday afternoon, my brother, sister in law, and sweet, adorable niece flew in from Phoenix. I think it was the third time I have seen Gabby, and she is the cutest, sweetest thing ever!! She is so loveable.  She just lays her head on your shoulder and gives you a hug. I could hold her all day.  Even Bry is doing well with her.  My mom had NO CLUE that the were coming then. She thought they were flying in on June 6.  They went and surprised her right after they landed and she had the best reaction ever.  She was screaming and jumping up and down and scared Gabby.  It's so wonderful to be all together. 
    They are staying here at my house (wohoo!) and Friday, May 31, was her first birthday.  So, of course we gave her a birthday party, and it wouldn't be complete with out a smash cake. It took her a minute to warm up to it but when she did she got after it.  My grandmother came and I have to say that she mad the best 7 layer Mexican dip I have ever had. Either I was really hungry or it was really good, or both but I have to give a shout out to my Mam-maw. She is the bomb.com.  yes, I really just said that. haha!  I love, love, love her. 
    In AdvoCare news, I am an Advisor! Wohoo! I think Roger saw the possibilites and due to extra financial blessings we were able to go ahead and buy in.  And I signed up another distributor.  A friend and her husband decied to sign up.  She started taking Spark when their baby was just born to help her get through the sleepless nights and days.  I wish I had known about this when Brylee was that age.  :) 
    Want to know something crazy! I decieded to do a Inasanlty work out with my brother, the ab one, and my legs are what's hurting, not my abs.  LOL!  I must have done it wrong. Tonight I plan on going to the gym, I don't care if it is 1:00 in the morning or not...I AM GOING!!  I am off tomorrow, so that is a plus! Any way, things are getting crazy with my sister's wedding fast approaching.  Will post some pics later! Take care.
