Hi ladies!!! I miss you all!! And I miss my workouts. I haven't done a single workout since arriving in Ukraine. I've had a hard time adjusting to the time change. I think tomorrow is a "down day" so I may try to run tomorrow morning. Nothing to report on the adoption front. We had our first...

Hello from Washington DC! We are sitting on the plane to Munich, Germany, and from there to Kiev, Ukraine. I'm not sure if I'll be able to check in much over the next few weeks. I do hope to find a nice running spot in Ukraine. Fingers crossed I have wifi or this is going to be one loooong trip...

Good morning! Friday was my rest day. Saturday I did 4DS: Kickboxing/legs/abs. I skipped the last part of the leg segment due to time. It was more important to me to get to the core section. My core is flabby flabby flabby. Sunday I did most of To The Max (only did 1/2 of the HiiT...

Hi gals! Good news!! We received our appointment date for the adoption - June 10th. Which means we will probably fly out around June 6 or 7. It will take a good 24 hours to get over there and we want a few days to acclimate. So we will be leaving in a little over three weeks!! :D:D:D Now...
