Im done doing that 30 day challenge thing... I got sick of it..
So, now that summer is approaching I am in desperate need to get in shape. I've always wanted to run a marathon, it doesnt matter how long it is just to run and complete one would be amazing! So, I found this Ipod app called couch to 5k... like it sounds it trains you for a 5k in 9 weeks. So I found a Memorial Day marathon on 5/28, a 5k (3.1 miles) and a 10k (6.2 miles)... Im doing it! Im so excited!! Im getting my fat butt in shape!!!!!

Ohio is for lovers... not Chicago
Day 21- A pic of something you wish you could forget. No details about this one... It was a long time ago, and Im over it now. Although I've forgiven you, I'll never forget this.
Tahiti
When I think of paradise, I think of Tahiti.... the whole shaboom, the little hut in the water, with a giant jetted tub, and glass floors so you can see the water below you. A huge bed with rose petals on it when you walk in with chocolate covered strawberries waiting for you... Ahhhhh. Day 20 is a picture of somewhere you want to travel. I WILL go to Tahiti one day. I want to scuba dive, and swim with dolphins and eat the freshest seafood know to man kind. Yummmm.
Skip card!
So day 17- something that has made a huge impact in your life recently... started with me just trying to think of ANYTHING... then it started getting annoying bcus I couldnt think of anything... now im just over you day 17!!!!! So, I decided to skip it. I know its kind of pathetic that I cant think of anything, but I was just STUCK and Im way behind, so I just needed to move on! hahah. So, Day 18 is a pic of your biggest insecurity.
My biggest insecurity is the future, or the unknown. I hate not knowing how things will turn out. I strongly believe in all the cliche mantra's "Everything happens for a reason" and "What doesnt kill you makes you stronger" and "It will all be okay in the end, if its not okay... its not the end." But they can only do so much to subdue my crazyness when I start having anxiety over things I cannot control. I have even seriously contemplated (and actually still do sometimes) going to a psychic hahaha. Im pathetic. I know. I mostly want to go cuz I think it would be interesting, not that I believe what they say is totally true. Anyways, there you go... there's my insecurity.

My lil man
Day 16 is for someone who inspires you... I was thinking about some celeb who gives back or some stranger whose story I've heard about how they overcame a struggle that I couldnt even wrap my mind around... but instead I decided to put my nephew, Maddox Nash Hermann.
This little dude was born on December 3rd at 11:06 pm. He weighed 2 pounds 3 ounces and was 14 inches long. He was born 11 weeks early, and delivered by emergency c-section. This little dude was such a fighter, he came into this world thinking he'd been here forever! He was such a little miracle. He really was just as healthy as a full term baby, he just wanted to join us all earlier that expected. He is such an amazing addition to this world and our family. There is no struggle harder to fight than the one for your own life and he did that better than anyone I've ever known; at 2 pounds at that. If that didnt make him enough of a miracle, the fact that his mommy and daddy were told they would never have children of their own makes him that much more awesome. :) Anyways, I love this little fighter he is an amazing star in my life now.
I had to put this picture up bcus its one of my all time favorite pictures! This is the first time Meyah got to meet her baby brother. You can see the love and excitement on her face (through the glass) :) That is love!

Ya know what I mean??
Day 15 is a picture of someone who understands me. The person who gets me the most is definitely my boyfriend, Brock. 
On days I feel upside down he's there to make everything okay again. Before I even know what I want or need, he can probably tell me. I love him, and am so thankful he is in my life.

Meyah Delaynee Hermann.. I love you.
Day 14 (Im behind!) A picture of someone you LOVE!
So obviously I love a lot of people, and was in between a few but I decided to go with my amazing niece Meyah. Seriously from the moment she was born and the first time I met her I have loved this child. Ya know when people say they dont know love until they have children? I dont know if I can handle loving my babies more than I love Meyah, my heart might burst. Its so fun watching her grow up and become her own little person. She is without a doubt one of the funniest people I know, she has more attitude than most grown women, she loves to dance and sing (she knows all the words and dance moves to "Single Ladies") and she can make me smile no matter what Im going through. I love this little girl. :)

My Jacky boy
Day 13 is a picture of my favorite band or artist. This day is going to Jack Johnson.
He is amazing. No matter what kind of mood I am in happy, sad, angry... he never fails to make me feel 100 times better. In the past 5 years I have never missed a concert and Im planning on getting front row tickets next time he comes, bcus that just sounds like the best night of my life. My favorite song of Jack's is Bubble Toes and my favorite cd is In Between Dreams.
If your music collection doesnt include at least one of his cd's it should... let me know, and ill fix that for you. :) I love you Jack Johnson.

This is what heaven tastes like....
Day 12 a picture of something you love... and boy do I LOVE Red Mango. I try to justify how much I eat it by telling myself its 'good' for me. Which it is a healthy snack, but when you eat it once a week and get a large every time the healthy-ness goes out the door. Im not ashamed though, I could live off this stuff. Large original with mochi and yogurt chips please!
(im definitely going there after work today!)
:)
