what does the_____say?




Lillie and I usually read this animal book and we talk about what sound they all make. (LIz, you gave me the book, it's a baby Einstein lift the flaps book) She caught on pretty fast! She also knows the elephant, owl, bear, and the cow. It's so cute! But it's even more cool that she understands and catches on....

my hobby



I never post about what I am into, lately its just been my sweet Lillie...when I am not with her I am usually at the gym. I love being there. It's not a regular gym, no cardio machine, no locker room with blow dryers, not even an A/C! But Crossfit is what I love..I have had my falling outs over the past 4 years...When I was pregnant, I need the A/C to workout that summer so I crossfitted at a regular gym, yep I was 39 weeks pregnant and still doing pullups and power cleans:) Once Lil was born I couldn't make it to the crossfit gym near my house bc Patrick was never home to watch her when the gym was open, so we invested in most of the equipment at home. Crossfitting alone is nothing like being at the gym though!!! no competition and no push...So The best thing about Virginia so far is my gym...



Crodssfit kind of started as a military thing, so lots of the workouts are named for fallen soldiers..This past weekend my gym and most CF gyms around the world hosted " Fight gone Bad" It raises money for families of fallen soldiers... The workout only last 17 minutes!



























My fans...

oh sweet Lil

So lets see what's new...Lillie is getting so big. She knows where her tummy is, where her ears are, many animal sounds, how to climb in the bath tub, how to get off the couch, and probably lots more things that we are just used to by now. She is at such a fun age! Yesterday we went to petsmart and she loved it! She walked around by herself and didn't bang on any animal cages;) It was fun and FREE! We are enjoying every minute of her. I take lots of pics on my cell phone that no one ever gets to see, but this is one of my favorites. It was taken on the morning of her Birthday while she was watchinh Elmo, of course!
