The Wagner News: June 2011

It's time for another update.

I'm like averaging like once a month... not so good, but better than once a year... so what can I say I'm a working progress.

So this month I turned 31 I'm not "in my thirties" which you know who cares really, it was just another birthday. We had some people over to celebrate the grand occasion. We had a good time, the kids really had a great time. I really wanted to play games but that didn't happen but heck next year.

Lehna is now done with school she has moved on and is going into first grade next year and Maya will move into Preschool. I think that the move will be great for Helen who watches them during the day. Both girls will go to the same school which is kind of different but it should be fun for them. Maya will go 1/2 days M,Tue, Thur, and Friday she'll be off on Wednesday, but that's a short day for the school any way. I'm kind of nervous for Maya to start school b/c she is not my greatest listener. She my challenger. I thought Lehna was bad but Maya is way worse she is the I'm going to challenge you b/c I think I can get you to do whatever it is I want by talking circles around you... it's fun times.

Nikolai is doing great his 4th month check up was a success his belly button is starting to turn back and they said that he's 16 lbs and 26 1/2 inches long. So he's a big boy I think both in height and weight he's in the 90th percentile so it's all good. He is changing by leaps and bounds so I wanted to make sure that I included some recent pictures since he's changing so much. He looks so much like his daddy it's amazing! So if Tait ever wondered what he looked like as a baby all he has to do is look at his son to know.

Work has been busy we have a bunch of impossible job orders right now that we are struggling to fill. But work is work. It's going fine.

I'm still loosing weight but it's not coming off fast enough. I have managed to loose 38 lbs but it's still taking FOREVER to get the rest off, it's only been 4 months since Nikolai arrived but still feels like forever. We have completed Couch to 5K and also Bridge to 10K I can now run about 5.5 miles in an hour, it's pretty exciting stuff. My run that I was going to do is going to have to be rescheduled b/c we are not going to have a baby sitter like we originally thought. So we will have to do it in the fall or find another one. Runs are VERY big around here, so we should find another eventually. I'm pretty proud of myself. I went from not being a runner at all to being able to run 5 miles, it's amazing really. My hips still kill me as a run but they are getting better. I think things are still moving back into place from Nikolai. I have decided to set a goal for myself this week and do some for of exercise every day. I was running 3 times a week, which I will still continue, but I think I really need to vary it b/c my body is starting to get used to that form... so I am going to have to vary it. I really want to get back into palates but the one classes that I'm find at the rex plex are on nights that are not convenient for our families schedule, so I'm been looking outside of the rex plex and really haven't found anything, a LOT of yoga studios, but I don't want to do yoga so I'll find something.

So here are some pictures that I took this weekend. Enjoy them and have a GREAT WEEK!
