Healthy Food Chart

I just walked in the door from teaching stroller exercise and running the kids to and from school. Yeah it’s Friday! With the exception of yesterday hours 3-6pm, this week flew by. Tonight we’re having a Wii/ Wii Fit family play date with our friends. I’m really excited because I’ve never tried the games, so EKM8224 I’ll keep you posted.

It’s a very cold day here in Boston which should help keep me in the house and doing my work! We have plans to go to dinner tonight with Mike’s family so I am using that as my motivation to avoid procrastinating. Hopefully you have an easy Friday ahead of you and then an enjoyable weekend!
