A New Adventure in Homeschooling

Apr 24

Even before we decided to have a child, we had an ongoing debate of whether or not we would homeschool our kid or not. Then we had a kid and we have been discussing it for 4 years – so basically his whole entire life! We finally decided to make the plunge and just start doing it already this past February. After all, we’ve pretty much been doing it...

New Goals

Sep 13

Since I started running, I’m happy to say that I was able to complete part of a goal for this year. I was hoping to have lost 30 pounds by the time was thirty, well, I’m about half way there and that’s better than nothing! After my first 5K in August, I’ve become a running addict. It’s just another thing I’m addicted to between...

Mission Run a 5K Complete!

Aug 17

It’s been a long summer of training, but I did it and I finished my first 5K last weekend in Chicago! I really can’t believe I did it. It has always been one of those things that you think you might do one day, but for whatever reason don’t ever get off the couch and do it!

Couch to 5K – Check!

I want to run twice a day and I would if my legs...

Week 5 Day 2 Baby

Jun 30

So I thought I would give a little update on my running progress. I am doing so much better than I ever thought that I would and I owe it all to the Mobile Couch to 5K app. I love this app and it’s amazing how one day you’re struggling through a minute and a half jog and then a couple of weeks later you’re running 8 minutes straight like it...
