10/14: Meals and Fitness for the week

As this post goes up, I should be running 8 miles with my friend Rhina. We’re taking a new route, and I’m excited for a change of scenery while enjoying great conversation-running buddies make all the difference in the world. Thankfully, quite a few friends are runners and they’re all patient with slower runners like…

10/7: Fitness and Meals for the Week

My brain definitely appreciates the new fitness knowledge after this weekend at Fit Fest. It was like, “what?! You’re learning something besides fluffy girl novels and baby stuff? Let me just soak this up…” To be honest, after Friday’s sessions, I was a little discouraged. I learned a few new things during the day, but…

9/30: Meals, fitness and wildcats

Happy Sunday! I wasn’t sure if this morning’s run was going to happen- we were up pretty late last night having a blast at the U of A game. Our friends had some extra tickets in the skybox, so when I got off work, I came home to get ready, feed lovebug dinner, (here she…

9/23: Meals and Fitness for the week

This week is going to be a little different than usual, since I’m staying out-of-town for another day +. Unlike traditional vacations, where I have to get creative to find healthy options, I’m fortunate to be surrounded by them. Breakfast this morning: Gluten-free cornmeal waffles (I salivate just looking at the picture) smoked salmon, more…

9/9: Weekly Meal and Fitness plan

Most nights of the week, especially if the Pilot is home, I look forward to making dinner. It’s a nice way to unwind from the day, and I’m usually excited to try out a new recipe. After a full day of work yesterday, and a fun afternoon with friends over watching the football game, I…

9/2: Meals and Fitness for the week

A week that the Pilot will be home for dinner! He was gone for two weeks, then flew nights for three including last week- it’s always more fun to make dinner for two. Or, two and a half in our case 😉 Last night was Liv’s first time trying salmon and she went CRAZY for…

8/26: Meals and Fitness for the week

Sweaty and triumphant. It wasn’t the practice 10k I had planned for, but considering I had some odds (aka excuses) working against me, I’m really happy about it. The Pilot said he’s wake up with Liv so I could go run, and when I woke up, it was 8:30. I figured since it was already…

Planes, things and reps

“Oh, I smell you’ve been cheating on me.” As soon as Bella finished running laps in excitement when I picked her up from madre’s yesterday, she stopped to smell the lab scent that covered me, belonging to Jeni’s dog, Whiskey, who I canoodled with all weekend. (Had to type out the full story because it…

Taters and applesauce

 The Pilot came home early from work today! He had to fly balls early so he was finished with the day earlier. I was grateful because I forgot to switch the carseat base from his SUV back to my car, so Liv and I just chilled at home with Bell today. Lots of songs were…
