This week I have not yet made it to the gym.  *BAD* I know.

Problem was, is that here in Minnesota – it was a GORGEOUS week weather wise. I mean, like… mid-September type weather.

We spent most of the day Monday and Tuesday outside playing in the back yard, and even managed to get a few big walks in. 

I think it’s such a great thing to have warm weather in January – I’d be happy with that type of weather all year round!  Most of my resolutions to be healthier revolve around getting outside with the kids more often – but often in the winter, it is hard to do that because of the crazy cold and the deep snow. 

This way, there was NO excuses.  It reaches 50 degrees in Minnesota in January – and you’re GOING to go outside.  No questions asked.

But now the weather is back to semi-normal temperatures.  Still a bit higher than usual, but still – very cold, and very windy.  No big snowfalls in the forecast though yet!

Ethan seems to have hit the heart of Separation Anxiety and is completely refusing to be left with strangers.  He cries until they (whoever it may be… church, gym, friends) can’t take it any more and then I have to come get him.  It’s tough.  Any suggestions?
