The day has finally arrived! Woohoo! After talking about it for months, purchasing it and then waiting for it, delivery day finally arrived!
Baby girl and I were up and moving early this morning due to a Christmas Sale at Macy's. I was standing in line for my delicious Caramel Brulee latte at Starbucks when an unfamiliar number called. I anxiously answered and the delivery man said, "Just want to be sure you are home this afternoon. Delivery is running 2 hours ahead of schedule." WOOHOO!
We got home and I tried my hardest to hold baby girl off for a loooong afternoon nap. Needless to say, she fell asleep at the lunch table while I was working on our crockpot meatballs. 3 hour nap is what I was hoping for and she almost made it. But the delivery guys were just a little too loud. (How can you not be when delivering a treadmill to a basement??) So right before they left, baby girl popped up.

So my new treadmill was calling my name from downstairs and I couldn't
even enjoy it yet. But lo and behold she fell asleep on the couch about
1.5 hours later. So I carried her upstairs and quickly ran down to run the
inaugural run before she woke up. It didn't last long, but a run is a
run!
I promised newbie I would take it easy on my first few runs to acclimate
my body to the much squishier than outside surface. Hence the slowness
of this run, but no matter what...
I WAS HAPPY!
(Please ignore the fact that our basement has no ceiling!)
After baby girl called out "Mama" about 100 times, we decided to have a
tea party! So she invited her friends to my bed, ahem I mean table, and
we had a wonderful Christmas tea party with Christmas Bear, Christmas
Dog, her monkey and Minnie Mouse.

What a great way to end the day! My little one has always been able to entertain herself. I cannot wait to see where this imagination of hers is going to take us.
Here is hoping for another run tomorrow!
AHEM... just a little Thanks to NEWBIE for the Treadmill.
He feels as if this is a bad gift for Christmas. He is equating it to purchasing me a vacuum. I said the 2 do not even compare. So thank you hubs for buying me EXACTLY what I wanted for Christmas!
