Hi everyone!!! I have to apologize for not posting more lately. As most of you know I have been out of town for 2 weekends in a row. I was in Las Vegas and then Monterey and Carmel for the past two weekends. First celebrating a friends wedding in Las Vegas, and then celebrating the 1 year passing of my father, and my mothers birthday in Monterey and Carmel the following weekend.

I have been babysitter less for 3 weeks as well, and trying my hardest to get to the gym when I can! Unfortunately the Au pair situation did not work out for our family, and we have been searching for a new Au pair since then. Well, this seriously threw a wrench in the situation and has thrown off my workout schedule in the meantime.  Sooooooo, here I am typing away after a wine and cheese party thrown by a dear friend that opened a health and wellness center in Los Gatos. I have to admit, I drank a few glasses of Chardonnay, yet was sure to not eat any unhealthy foods while there! 😉

I have been working out Monday and Tuesday at my little gym close to my house. It has a 1.5 hour babysitting time that is included in my membership. I am thankful and grateful that my children LOVE going there, and therefore allows me to get some cardio and light weights in while missing out on my trainer. I have to admit that my 2 year old Lillianna, keeps saying “momma, can we go to the gym” periodically throughout the day, and that kind of encourages me to get my butt up and go…. She  loves going and hanging out with the other kids, so it begins to weigh on my heartstrings and my mental state to at least go so she can play!!!

Tonight I made roasted cauliflower and homemade tomato vegetable, quinoa chicken soup. I will be hitting a workout at my trainers tomorrow to try and get some good calories burned tomorrow morning. I hope you are all doing well and working on your fitness goals! I look forward to Easter Sunday and checking in with picture progress and weigh in!

Until Sunday,

Health and Love
