Visitting my mommy!


This past weekend we took a trip to the Navajo reservation to show Martin what he has been missing! We stayed with my aunts and mom in Flagstaff and drove to Tuba City, Kayenta and Monument Valley. It was so nice to eat some good meals and spend time with relative I haven't been around in years. Charlotte had a lot of fun playing with 2nd cousins and being drug along to do tourist stuff.

In Monument Valley they have a new hotel and visitors center. Outside the visitors center they offer 1.5 and 2.5 hour jeep tours of the rock formation. My mom went and talked to the people got us a free 2.5 hour tour, we just had to tip the driver. I guess speaking to them in Navajo goes a long way when you are on the Rez.

On our way back to Flagstaff we stopped in Tuba City to show Martin where my parents grew up and where I was born. We also visited my aunt Brenda. Outside of Tuba there is a spot where you can see dinosaur tracks so we took a look around there also.

The next day we decided to head to Oak Creek and then home. Kiva(our dog) and Charlotte were not fans of the cold water. KC our little dog loved the water. After we sat by the creek for a while we ate lunch in the back of my aunts truck and then headed home.

I didn't even get any pictures with my mom...that is so annoying!

Execising = Fail

So I started week 4 and noticed that none of my clothes were fitting me. I felt tired all the time. Like besides working and working out I was a lump of nothing. I also got so bored with the videos. I tried to do other things like bike riding and jogging on the cardio days just to mix it up a little bit but I found myself dreading the thought of any exercise. So I decided to take a week off. So this Sunday I was suppose to start up again but I have a horrible head cold and don't feel like doing anything. I think I am going to try to make myself my own plan. Walking, biking and yoga...instead of all the bulking up exercises. I also want to start being more strict with my diet. I kinda feel like a failure. It is so annoying that my body is fatty. I mean my fat cells are just so big and when I start exercising my muscles just get bigger and my fat cells stay the same so I just bulk up. I have had this issue forever. I think I really need to focus on my diet to eliminate the bad food causing me to stay bulky.
