I’m excited to announce that I have officially put MORE than I actually weigh over my head–that means that I weigh 140 and I Split Jerked 145! Yeah for me. I’ve begun to hit all these long time crossfit goals- such as getting my first muscle up to putting my weight over my head {2.5 years later}. It’s been a long time in coming and I’m happy about it, but, it really doesn’t matter that much, does it? When my kids grow up are they going to care how much weight I can put over my head, no.

However lovingly they like to play “lifting weights” in the garage with me, they are really not that interested in how I do, they are more interested in creating their own games, recovering from ridiculous incidents of allergy/infected feet, not getting shots, going on airplanes, and just generally being kids. There are days that include 6+ hours of work, a kick a** hard workout when I just don’t want to play with them…I’d rather curl up in my comfy chair and take a nap! But the days when they are this young are limited and pass quickly. I look back on super cute photos of them and I want those days back!
So, today, when you get cranky with your kids, just remember, they will only by this YOUNG once.

On another note:
Mother’s Day is coming up very soon….have any gift requests, I’m looking for ideas?!
