New Year

I decided today to create a new blog.  I thought the title, Insanity and Greeff would be cute because I will post about two things on this blog.  Item 1 will be about our progress as we start doing Insanity, the 60 day workout program by Beach Body.  Item 2 will be about our family.

Corbin and I were married in 2008 and moved to California in late 2009 after becoming pregnant with our first son, Jude.  Jude joined our family in May 2010 and has been a total joy ever since.  Yes, there are trying days now that we have an almost three year old, I mean let's face it, people tell you the "terrible twos" are hard, but you can not quite prepare yourself for this tantrum filled phase in their lives. This was all made harder by the arrival of our second son, Tristan, in August 2012.  We had been making progress on potty training prior to Tristan's arrival and have suffered major set backs in this area now that Jude desperately wants to be mommies baby again.  This too shall pass has become by adopted mantra for patience and peace of mind.

So now that we are only five days into the new year, Corbin and I are committing to getting into shape and living healthier lives.  I turned thirty in 2012 and want to be in better shape than I was in my twenties prior to having two children.  I've made excuse after excuse for almost 5 months since Tristan's birth and it's now time to dig in and bring it! Oh did I mention that I have a full time job as well as being a Young Adult and Adult book reviewer for www.onceuponatwilight.com?  Yep, the glass is never half full these days, but all the more reason that I need to keep my mind sharp and my body in peek physical condition to meet my packed schedule.

Here's a toast to 2013 and a fond farewell to 2012.  Can't wait to share our progress with you here!
