Trying to loose baby weight/weight in general has never been an easy task for me, I'm just not one of those lucky women who gives birth and comes home from the hospital in their size 2 jeans. Unfortunately I have a huge sweet tooth, I am not a disciplined eater and I am not a good dieter, so I have come to realize that exercise will have to be a permanent part of my life for as long as I live, which is not a bad thing, but can sometimes be challenging with the little tykes around all the time. I have a membership to the gym, but it just hasn't quite worked out with Hannah and school and babysitting, so I have found other ways to incorporate the exercise into my daily routine and luckily the kids are good sports about it and actually enjoy going with me. Hannah loves it sooo much, she falls asleep everytime! (I would say that's better than screaming her head off in a gym daycare for 2 hours, right?) Mason loves going because he either gets to play Jakob's DS all by himself or listen to the ipod. I am grateful that they are willing to cooperate with me so that I can do this for myself each day-it's one thing that is important to me and one of the only parts of the day I take for myself. I also owe a big thanks to Wade, because on his days off he is always willing to keep the kids so that I can go all by myself! Love you all tons for helping me while I try to lose these last 10! (P.S. I am also thankful for all the massive hills that I live around-makes for a much better workout!)

These pictures are too cute! I think it is awesome that you take the kids. What a great way to get them out of the house and a great work out too! I am glad you have the drive, I wish I did. I still need to loose the last 10/20 of what Dallin added to my waist! Good luck, I wish we lived closer so we could work out together!

GREAT JOB! I think the hills here are a killer!!! Plus- pushing 100 lbs up them is a double killer:)!
