Valentine's Day Love

By -


This morning started off with me wondering why my alarm went off at 430...then I remembered, just because yesterday was a snow day does not mean today is a snow day.  It's a good thing my alarm had more sense than me.  It was only a 2hr late arrival.  I quickly hopped up and scarfed down breakfast/coffee and started to shovel.  We seriously had at least 14 inches on my car alone.  Thank goodness I shoveled the driveway yesterday, it was only a few new inches on the driveway.  Before heading out to work, I made the kids & hubby breakfast...heart shaped beignets and biscuits with jelly heart filling.

The kids had a fun playdate with friends while I was at work for a few hours.  After work, it was a quick 30-minute kettleball workout and since I had dinner in the crockpot....it was all too easy!  I really should make crockpot meals more often.  There is truly something to be said about coming home to a house that smells of yummy dinner.  I've been trying really hard to cook more often.  Between work, school, gym,  & the kids afterschool activities, I was really slacking in January.  This month, I'm focusing on our household diet.  Exception:  the 4 chocolate covered strawberries my hubby forced me to eat :D

All in all, today was the perfect Valentine's day.  I tucked Tyler in and asked his "high."  His answer, "eating our special heart shaped breakfast."  #mommysuccess  #lovingthelittleones

As for my valentine, he's snoozing on the chaise lounge chair.  I couldn't be happier to have such a sweet man to spend everyday for the rest of my life with!  Even if he's snoozing while I'm doing homework.

Remembering Why I Exercise

A simple list for a simple reason....to explain why I run: 1.) My children.  I want my kids to understand and appreciate the benefits of exercise and healthy eating.  I am a daily role model for my two little ones.  They deserve me to be the best I can be. 2.) Myself.  I deserve a long and healthy life.  I want to be 80 and still climbing mountains with my best friends.  I enjoy going to the doctor and having the nurse say "you are a runner," purely based off my vital signs.  I need the "me" time...and I choose to spend the "me" time exercising over watching T.V. or other optional hobbies. 3.) My husband.  He's an amazing guy.  Robert Allen Haidaczuk, Jr., you deserve a wife who will sit in that rocking chair by your side....for as long as we are tired of rocking (knowing our track record, it's about 2.5 seconds). 4.) My mom.  She raised me to not quit.  She didn't quit on me when times are tough (and boy, they were *tear* toug...

It's a Wonderful World

This month of April really kicked off with many trips.  Bob traveled TDY to Greece for a few weeks. Our family really missed having the extra TLC in our home.  Although everything get's accomplished (school & after school adventures), I personally feel like a car chugging on 3 wheels.  It makes it down the road - but we sure miss that 4th wheel. This picture was added to the AFNorth "Month of a Military kid" wall.  I simply love that Cammie wanted to be in the photo too :D  Avery was wearing her pjs - that's just life.  Dad was heading out the door. The kids started swim lessons at the JFC-Brunssum, Netherlands pool.  I'm told the Dutch take kids swim lessons very seriously and even follow a certification program due to all the canals in Holland.  After being on the wait-list for 6 months, I was excited for Tyler and Avery to learn proper strokes.  Tyler already had swim lessons in school but this class actually seems to encourage ...
