1st gymnastic class =D

So we had our very 1st gymnastic class on Saturday, and it was so much work but I had a blast!! It was super fun and I was sweating by the end of the hour long class! At first Jacob was unsure of the new surroundings and people, he didn't really want to do the warm up part but once he saw the other kids having fun he started to loosen up a bit. Then we went to the trampoline (a long narrow trampoline) the instructors placed foam shapes on the trampoline and they were used as "stations" so the first station was a foam triangle shape and Jacob had to climb on top and do a summer salt down, then there was a flat foam shape he had to do a baby cart wheel over, then they placed a ladybug mat where Jacob had to do three donkey kicks, a flat mat he had to fall on his bum then slide down off the trampoline, jump on these dots on the ground that lead to a ladder that he had to climb up and over - then do the whole thing over again. He wasn't too sure the first time but the second time he actually did most of the stations on his own! After that we went back to the main mat area and did another little course but this time on the bars, I think he did pretty good at this one too! Then more trampoline jumping and some parachute time (with the big colorful parachute). By the end I was tired and sweaty, Jacob seemed to be having fun and I thought he would definitely be napping on the way to St.Albert but he didn't!? Instead he crashed after our visit with my Dad and slept the whole way home!


Sunday was Mothers Day so I went to visit my Grandma and Mom, it was a quick visit and then we headed back home. I was kinda expecting that my hubby would come home with flowers for me since the day before I had asked him if I need to pick up my own flowers and he said no, he would get me some. But NO ... he came home with nothing! :( Said the stores were closed so I hung onto the hope that maybe Monday I would come home from work to see that he had bought some beautiful flowers. I rushed home Monday to ... nothing... no card, no flowers not even supper being cooked!? This morning I bugged him saying I looked all over and couldn't find my flowers anywhere, he chuckled as if I was making a joke but really I was on the verge of tears!? I wanted to say Thanks jerk, for making yet another Mothers Day memorable and special!? He has one more day to make up for it... I'm not holding my breath but I am hoping that maybe today I will come home to flowers?! I don't think I ask for much, there are lots of other Moms (wives) out there that ask or get WAY more then flowers for Mothers Day (spa package, etc), heck I probably would have been happy with a hand made card that Jacob scribbled on or a hand stamp of Jacob? :(

This week has also been a little challenging, I have pretty much run out of WS shakes and meals so I have been trying to do it on my own. I don't think I am completely failing at it but I don't think I'm doing that great either?! I got on the scale today and I think I have gained? I also broke down last night and had a few cookies, I was just really hungry and the temptation was ridiculous!! I didn't have those temptations, cravings or the hunger feeling and just wouldn't feel the need to have those cheats when I was on the WS plan. Maybe I had the cookies cause I was upset about not getting my flowers, maybe it was cause I didn't eat enough protein!? I just really hope my order gets here soon cause I think right now I need the guidance of WS to help me get through the cravings and temptations!? Last time I checked my UPS code thing my package was stuck in customs, yesterday it finally cleared customs so hopefully I will see it today or tomorrow at the latest!?

Hopefully the rest of you had a great Mothers Day!! :)
