2. What was your favorite way to kill time as a kid? You know, all the things kids don't do today.. play outside! Go to the park, bike ride, play hacky sack, build tree houses, have yard sales, sliding, skating.. oh to be young again.

'Memba this?

3. When did you get your first cell phone? I was 18 and only got it because my step-sister had one.

4. What is your favorite magazine to read? In Touch Weekly and Star. I like celebrity gossip.. what can I say? That and they're the only crossword puzzles I can finish.

5. What is the one random object people would be surprised to find in your purse? A diaper. Only because my purse has now changed over to a diaper bag! Ha!

10 years too fast

Can you believe the calendar says August... of 2013?? It's almost depressing. I remember when the week before Christmas was a painfully slow process. Then in high school, detention class dragged on for what seemed like an eternity. All I wanted to do was graduate, move on, and be an adult.

Silly me.

I miss being a kid with no responsibility, You know, when hard decisions consisted of what color binders you wanted for school or what POGS to play. Good times.

 

Ahh.. the 90's.

It's sick to think I graduated 10 YEARS ago! I grabbed my diploma and hopped on a plane across the country as fast as I could. The friends I grew up with (who were closer to me than my own family) are complete strangers. Hell, the friends I have now are almost strangers since I became a mom. Oops. But seriously, you don't realize how precious time is until years later.

My advice to all the youngin's out there:

Stop growing up so damn fast.
Ignore drama.
Be a kid.
Live life.
Be happy.

My July Challenge

Yesterday was 40 degrees. That's 104 degrees for you Americans. Yes, I live in Canada and yes, it gets that hot! Normally I would be thrilled but with an almost 4 month old who can't regulate his body temperature, we've been stuck indoors. He's lucky he's so cute.

Since we will be indoors a lot, a friend and I decided to create an individual July Challenge which consists of 5 things we want to work on/towards.

My 5 things:

 

1. Eating habits

Meal planning & healthy eating

 

2. Organize/De-clutter

Garbage, sell, or donate items

Come up with an organization system

Decorate house

 

3. Exercise (least favorite)

Tuesday HIIT classes

Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred

 

4. Blogging

Try to blog 3-4x a week

Write about challenge

 

5. Mylo

Work on Mylo's baby book & photo album

Yesterday, I started the exercise portion. A friend of mine teaches fitness classes so what better way to show my support, visit, and work on getting my body back than to sign up for her Tuesday classes. It was amazing! I loved being outdoors while having a nice break from the babes who in return got Daddy time. Sure my body doesn't move the same way but it's also a lot stronger in some ways from carrying a now 16lb baby everywhere. With that said, it's time for today's workout!

The day I tried Peachwave Frozen Yogurt

Why have I not heard about Peachwave until just recently? Oh right... Canada just got the first store a couple of months ago! Luckily enough for me, it was in my city. Unluckily for my husband, I have a new favorite store. Thank you creator of Peachwave. Thank you. At the same time, my waistline dislikes you. It does say it's healthy so I guess I can't complain with advertising.

Peachwave Frozen Yogurt

For those of you who don't know what Peachwave is, the concept is pretty simple.

There are only 4 rules.

I chose 2 flavours; cupcake & vanilla. I went relatively easy on the toppings.

But then I found the chocolate fudge.

Please note my phone was dying so I rushed to get pictures. Boo you iPhone battery.

 

Strawberries, banana, brownies, cookies 'n cream, skor bits, sprinkles, and a gummy frog.

It came to $6.24 and it put the "yum" in yummy. T'was a good night folks. A good night indeed.

Now go eat some frozen yogurt.
