It's been too long!!

I can't believe I have posted anything in almost 3 months!! My friend Lisa started a blog today over at http://torontofitmom.wordpress.com/, and her post inspired me to get back in the saddle!!
What's been going on?
Well, I went to Mexico the first week of March with the Body Conditionning by Dancers group. Check out our fearless leader Eva Redpath here http://www.evaredpath.com/ There was 16 of us (all women) and we had a blast. We would wake up every morning for poolside yoga at 6:30 am, have breakfast, hang by the pool and then meet up for Beach Bootcamp at 11, have lunch and back to the pool, end the day with a run on the beach or around the resort, shower and supper. Now that doesn't sound like fun to everyone I'm sure, but it was a great experience! We also did some self developpment/transformation work while sipping on some exotic juice or coffee. Thankfully, Charlotte was in great hands! Melvin took a few days off work and my mom came down to spend most of the week with her. I think everything had a blast!
A few days after I got back, my dad and grandma arrived and we had a small party to celebrate Charlotte's 1st Birthday!! I stressed so much for her cake, ended up making a boxed PC Organic cake which my mom expertly iced just for Char not to have any interest in it at all!!
Last week, Charlotte started transitionning to day care! Today was her 4th "day"and she was there for morning snack, walk and lunch. Wednesday we add on nap and Friday is a full day. Then it's back to work for me and full time day care for her! People keep saying to me "ohhh she's going to daycare????" and they make it sound like the saddest thing ever! I was always planning on going back to work, and we didn't want to go the nanny route. I did alot of research on day cares and I can see how much fun Charlotte and the other kids have. The women are great and super friendly. Yes, I'm sad to leave her, but I'm leaving her in a great place where she will thrive and make new friends!
While she's there, I'm getting organized for back to work!! I needed a new wardrobe and I really want to have our meals planned for the week so suppers are easy peasy. We also bring our lunches, so I need that to be ready the night before! Any suggestions are welcome!!
That's all for now, I'm off to portion the chicken breasts I bought today.
I will be posting more often I promise!!!
