Trying to write more May 30, 2008

I’m really going to make an effort to write more on my blog, even if no one reads it. I think I mentioned once that I’m a blog stalker… which means I read several people’s blogs, but rarely comment on them. So anyway, my point is that one of the blogger friends I stalk is really very good about posting on her blog frequently. So my plan is that every time I read her blog and she has a new post up, I’m going to make a new post on my blog. And maybe eventually, I’ll have something to write about.

 

Anyway, today is just another boring Friday. The kids and I went to the YMCA this morning. They were having an hour and a half long master class today, so I worked out from 9:00-10:30. That was exhausting! I’ve also been incorporating a running program into my workouts lately. It’s called the couch to 5K program. It’s supposed to get you able to run a 5K in about 8 weeks. I really, really hate running, so I thought maybe if I eased into it with this program, it might not be so bad. So far I’ve completed 2 weeks and it’s really not that bad. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sucking wind by the end, but hopefully that will get a bit better. And I do feel good after doing the running.

 

Nothing much else is going on around here. We’re just going to be hanging out at home this weekend, I think. Daniel will be cleaning and organizing the garage and I’m not sure what I’ll be doing aside from chasing after a couple of crazy kids and running a ton or errands at naptime.

 

Speaking of those crazy kids, here’s a picture I took of them yesterday:

My, my, my May 23, 2008

So, um, my last post here was on April 4th, huh? Well, I like to plead the fact that my life is very boring, so there’s nothing to write about! Does that work?

 

Oh well, I guess, I’ll post an update as of now. The only thing we’ve done lately out of town was when we headed to Ft. Pierce over Mother’s Day weekend. Amelia and I went to a mother/daughter dinner while we were there. She did really well even if she didn’t eat anything. Luckily someone volunteered to keep the nursery during the speaking part.

 

So then, I got really brave and decided to take her to the mother/daughter dinner at our church here the Tuesday following Mother’s Day. And again, she did very, very well. During this dinner, the speaker spoke while we were still at our tables, so I was kind of nervous about keeping her quiet during that, but she discovered a cup of lemonade and proceed to “sip” on that during the whole speaking time. I say “sip” because she hasn’t quite mastered the art of drinking out of a cup without a lid yet. So she sat there holding the cup, sticking her tongue in it! It was quite funny!

 

Here is a picture of the two of us at that dinner:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Other than that, we’re just enjoying the warmer weather and the pool. We’ve doing some updates to the house recently so we can enjoy it to the fullest. This is the longest time we’ve lived in one place since we got married, so we’re not really used to actually “living” in a house. For instance, I recently bought coordinating accessories for the kids’ bathroom and for the guest bathroom. They look really nice now!

 

Well, that’s all for now. I’ll write more in another month and a half. Haha!
