Enough said. It has been a busy few weeks here. I missed Father’s Day or did it miss me? All I wanted was some time to relax and spend some time playing with Avery and I got my wish, but it seems that I am still relaxing. I have been keeping up shop over at Timed Finals, but something had to give. Work, family, wife, child, training for a triathlon…

So, in the meantime, I have lost nearly 20 pounds. I feel better and I feel healthier. It is easier to get up in the morning, and easier to work through the day (although without the free soda during construction at the office – staying awake is a chore sometimes).

I always thought that having a kid would be work and in turn would keep me in shape, but that is quite the contrary. Despite the squats, bouncing, lunges, rocking, etc. that I did with Avery as a baby, I still did not keep the weight off. Next time around, I think I’ll skip that second piece of cheesecake, and take that second nap.
