So... today was a busy day considering it was my husbands 30th birthday!! He's so old.  ;) I like to give him a hard time since he is older than I am. 

 I finished work and had to go get him his birthday present before I had to pick up our son from daycare at 4:30. (yes I did wait until the day of...don't judge!) While I had all of that going on, I knew that I needed to get my workout in before Justin (yes...that is my hubby's name) came home because otherwise I wouldn't get it done. Soo...since I had limited time, I did Insanity cardio abs!! Much better than doing nothing! --which is what I felt like doing...plus taking a nap. I would have liked to do that too, but hey! I can't do everything. So...Happy Thursday everyone!! It will be an early bedtime for this girl!
