A good day

I've decided this blog is for me, myself, and those who care. I have been wanting to write about my life happenings and things for quite some time and keep putting it off. This is an easy way for me to write (because I can type pretty darn fast) and keep things together.

I figured "Heather's Housequake" is a great name for my blog because this house is always shakin' and quakin'. It is quite a task to keep up with the extracirricular activities and social lives of three children while working outside the home full time. Sometimes I just look for the day when I don't have to get off the couch. Yet, I welcome the days full of "stuff". It is one of those love/hate things...

Today, after the kids got home from school, we went to the gym and worked out. I, myself, am still trying to lose those 8 pounds I gained on the Mexican cruise that my man and I went on in January. So easy to put on, so hard to lose! Kate gained 2 pounds at her Grandma's over the weekend indulging in her homemade fudge and ice cream. And she has been trying to watch what she is eating in preparation for the Dance World Cup in July. Bubba, all of a sudden, seems interested in "building up" his muscles - particularly his chest and arms. Huh. And Baby Girl is just interested in socializing with whoever will let her talk to them. We all had a great workout. Kate is happy as long as she is running faster and farther than me on the eliptical or treadmill. Baby Girl's faced was flushed and her hairline sweaty after her attempts at mastering the rock wall. Bub was complaining about how sore his arms were before we ever got home. And I, myself, just plain feel good.

It's a good day.
