January 15 = Movie Night

Zachary helped me find a new workout routine- there's a bodybuilding.com app called BodySpace and it has lots of different programs for lots of different goals... mine is to tone, not build bulk.  So the one we found is perfect for me- six different exercises that I do three sets of 12 reps each.  We started it last night and today I went to the gym while Zachary was at work and figured out all the machines myself!  I know how to use the weight machines with the pictures showing you what to do on the side- but these are the machines in the big, scary weight room.  Okay well I had to send him a couple of text messages clarifying some things but still!

Here's Malia leading the way- she refuses to be carried out of the gym now which makes leaving a tad bit stressful.  It's hard to corral these two little ones.

Later that night, we had our first ever family movie night!  A couple nights ago Zachary was humming a song in the movie Robin Hood and was quizzing me to see if I knew what movie it was from.  Since I've never seen the movie before, I did not know and so he insisted that I watch it.  I put a hold on it at the library and picked it up yesterday.  We popped some popcorn and sat together on the couch and watched the whole movie!  Liam got up a couple of times but for the most part they did really well and it was definitely a memorable night!

December 3 = Basketball Day

So last night Zachary actually didn't have a game because they won on Monday and Tuesday so they got last night off!  So tonight's game was the championship game and I decided it would be fun for us all to go and support him!  Zachary told me there was walking track above the gym so we could go up there and be out of the way and Liam could walk around and be happy.  Well Liam did enjoy the walking track, but he enjoyed it just a bit too much.  Here he grabbed Malia's hand but for the most part, he was running ahead of us and looking back and laughing.  It made me a bit nervous because I felt like I couldn't keep up with both of them at the same time.

So we went to this area right outside the basketball court- they show a movie in a little theater there every Thursday night so they had popcorn out there for whoever wanted any.  Malia liked it.  And then she decided to drop the container and popcorn went everywhere.

So we headed out to the car and I let the kids walk around the van which entertained them for about 45 minutes.  At that point I thought the game must be almost over so I thought we could handle the last few minutes.  I put Malia in the baby carrier and headed in.  Zachary's team was up by a lot so he was on the bench giving some other people a chance to play- he's so good!  So we didn't get to see him play but we did get to see his team win!
