new year

Yes, I know that it is now thirty days into the new year but I've had a busy month. I don't have a new years resolution but I have a goal to finish loosing my baby weight by the end of July, when Micah comes home, and I can proudly say that I am over half way there! I tried extremely hard while Micah was gone this past month to exercise everyday and to make healthy food choices. I have a few exercise goals for while he is on cruise such as the Wounded Warrior 5k and the March of Dimes March for Babies in April. As well as attending a stroller class 3 times a week, starting at the end of February. I love being active and want to encourage my daughter from the very beginning to have an active and healthy lifestyle.

Micah came home last week, after being gone for about a month and it is really starting to sink in that he will be deploying in two and a half weeks. As the deployment is rapidly approaching us, I am trying my hardest to not think about it because I don't want our last 2 weeks together bombarded with stress and sad emotions. I want our last 2 weeks to be happy and wonderful so we can think about all the good times we had with each other while we are apart. I don't like saying goodbye's, I hate them. I really do. Having to say 'goodbye' or 'see ya' later' to the person you love even if it is just for a 6 months, sucks. I am hoping time will go by fast!
