Rainy Day

 

  June2011 046

It normally doesn’t rain during the summer, but yesterday it did.  So Nicholas and I  got out the Lincoln Logs and did some building.  Yes, he’s in his swim suit (no, I didn’t make him swim in the rain, luckily his swimming class is indoors : )

Legoland

I completely forgot about these pictures from our trip to Legoland earlier this month.

NIcholas loved the ball hut where he got to throw and shoot as many balls as he wanted.  I got pegged a few times, but I was just glad Nicholas was having fun.

   I must have been back at the hotel with Ryan for this one, but it looks like Nicholas is trying to hit Lego frogs with a water gun : )

Check out all my boys checking out the aquarium at Legoland.  Ryan didn’t get much enjoyment out of Legoland, but he did love the aquarium.  He would watch the fish go by and follow them with his eyes.

Yes, almost everything was made out of Legos.  Pretty neat, but it also made me wonder if some people had too much time on their hands : )

P90X

Well, Mike and I are on to our next fitness challenge. We made it through the first week of P90X, a fitness/diet program. It lasts for 90 days and is a 3 phase diet program with an hour-hour 1/2 exercise everyday. It incorporates yoga, martial arts, strength training, cardio, stretching, basically everything. We're not too sore, which is great. We think it will be a good change up to what we're used to doing and will get us back into shape after having Ryan. Of course, some of the exercises I'm not a fan of (like Kenpo or plyometrics), but sometimes I figured I'd just do what I like instead of those...like running and swimming. I've signed up for a 10K race in July so I'm excited to get back to running. And yay...Mike ordered a nice treadmill for us. So we're getting back in the game. It took us about a year to get back after we had Nicholas so we're doing good if we can get back into shape by the time Ryan's six months old in July : ) We won't terrify you with the before pictures we took, but we'll post the after pictures once we finish P90X. And then we'll have to find a new routine again once we move to Angola.
