Today I have nothing really to do. Well, besides laundry and grocery shopping, but we can pretend those don' t exist right now. 😉 Just like photos will not exist in this post because - a) I don't have any and b) I'm being low key. 😉

This morning I woke up and headed to the gym for my workout. I meant to do the Power class, but I thought it started at 8:30 not 9:30. Oops! So I just did 40 minutes of cardio instead - 30 on the elliptical and 10 on the treadmill. Then I stretched myself out afterwards.

Now, I am just chilling with some coffee, some blog reading/updating, and then my book while M naps her morning away. This afternoon I plan on getting outside with Makenzie to play with her new car and go on a walk since it is a glorious day. Sunny & 50s! Not my ideal temps but worthy of some outdoor time. As much as I love days that are filled with fun and things to do, I don't think I could survive without at least one day a week to just be chill. Today is that day and I am savoring every minute. Especially since tomorrow the busy life returns with an am spin class, an 11:00 hair appointment, and dinner out with friends. 😀

Fun Fact Friday! Tell me the truth 😀

1. My favorite season is the spring when everything starts blooming and is new and beautiful again. So refreshing!
2. My favorite song is Baby Got Back by Sir Mix A Lot. I like big butts and I cannot lie, you other brothers can't deny...

Now questions for you...

• Do you thrive when busy or when you have time to not do anything? What makes you happiest?
• What is your favorite season and favorite song?
• Do you think I should take the plunge to get my hair a teeny tiny bit darker??? Like more of a light brown with less blonde or stick with my typical various shades of blonde all streaked in?

That's how I started my day. From the moment I woke up, it was nonstop today. It all started off with my morning Bible reading. Followed up with showers, baths, getting ready, and breakfasts for the baby girl and I. We had to head out the door at around 9:30 this morning to go and meet up with the local Mom's Group. I contacted a local group a couple of weeks ago and got some information and today was the first day to head and out and see what it was all about. We went to a cool little playcenter called Imaginations at Play. This place is really cool for kids. They have all sorts of different areas set up for the kids to explore. From a place to splash in water and play with bubbles to a mini grocery store to go 'shopping' there was all sorts of fun. Here are some pictures of Makenzie from this morning and all her adventures.

I really enjoyed meeting some other moms in the area and having new things to do with Makenzie. I believe we are going to go to an indoor playground and meet some more people from the group on Friday morning. I think Ihave already decided to join this group. Do you have any groups or outside activities where you meet regularly with others? What are they? Why did you join? I decided to look for a mom's group to have more adult interaction and social outings with baby M during the weekdays. It is so important to have people in your life with similar interests and lifestyles. Which is one of the main reasons I have this blog 😉 Love you all! 🙂

After the playtime we headed home for some lunch. It took twice as long to get home due to an accident that shut down the main road to my house so I was a starvin' marvin upon pulling in the driveway. Lunch was my usual - some sort of wrap with turkey or ham, veggies, and laughing cow cheese/mustard with an apple and 100 cal popcorn or more veggies on the side. I am a creature of habit and tend to eat the same things all the time. Not very exciting for all of you foodies, I know. But I am who I am, so take it or leave it.

After I refueled myself, I got to some laundry and housechores while the baby girl crashed from her extravaganza of play. I did have a moment to take some time to catch up on blogs too and read my next book (which I am LOVING). Finally, it was time to get my groove on workout. I opted for an at home Turbo Jam workout today. I always love those workouts because they always leave me feeling great and it passes quickly because they are so fun.

This reminds me - THANK YOU for all the supportive posts yesterday. This is something that I know I want to do and will do eventually, the question is when. I still plan to take some time to pray about it, but I will probably go ahead and talk to the group fitness manager at my gym just in general about what it takes to get certified and stuff. And I'll just look at some things and see where the good Lord leads me 😉

Now I have to let you all go. My sister will be arriving shortly to enjoy some din din together and watch tonight's episode of The Biggest Loser. Which reminds me - I am so peeved that I accidentally stumbled across a possible Bachelor spoiler last night. Gar! I hate not being surprised. 🙁
