Photo a Day: 10am or....well, 10:30 in my case.

I missed the 10am mark as my sunday school class was doing music time.  So, these are 3 of the 3 year olds in my class (including my little princess in pink).  It's play time once our lesson is over.  What a group of cuties I get to teach every Sunday!

Red Neck Stranger

Day 4 is a picture of a stranger.  I know the quality of this picture is terrible; however, I could not resist.

There are just no words....

Firm Friday Week 4

I had high hopes that posting every week would motivate me to get my butt in gear and tone up.  I have not been exercising the way I had planned; however, I didn't do completely horrible this week. 

On a positive note, I walked up 7 flights of stairs 2x at work on Wednesday and Thursday.  Shew....I am so out of shape.  I was out of breath by the 3rd flight!  While on vacation in Fl this past week, I also played a lot of red light green light, simon says, played at the park, and went on several "nature hikes" with the kids.  Though it isn't what I had planned (crunches, lunges, etc.), at least it was something.

As for eating healthy....well, if you call wine, margaritas, choco tacos, and dark chocolate milky ways low fat, than I did great! 

Next week, I have signed up for yoga again on Monday and I plan to do pilates on Thursday as well.  I've recruited a few friends to go as well so hopefully, that will motivate me.  

and....just for my husband  GO GIANTS!

Photo a Day: Hands

There are 3 pair of tiny hands and feet that I will hold in my heart forever.

I will remember when you are tall, that your hands were just this small.

Photo a Day: Words

Same Kind of Different as Me is an story of friendship and love between two unlikely people, brought together by one amazing woman.  This book is one of my absolute favorites.  It has inspired me to try to be a better person, taught me about loving people who may seem unlovable, and never giving up hope. 

Photo a Day

This month, I'm going to try the Photo a Day challenge.  Todays photo is my view.  I really tried to get a call picture of the WWII and Lincoln Memorials today on my drive into work at 6am; however, it was dark, rainy, and traffic was totally uncooperative.  So, instead, you get a view of the empty hall outside of my office.  I guess I'm one of the few people here this early.

So What Wednesday

I'm linking up with Shannon again from Life After I Dew.  Today, I'm saying....

-So what if I spent half of my day yesterday on pinterest.  How did I ever put outfits together, cook, or make anything without it?

-So what if I am writing this to avoid doing anything I really need to do (work, put laundry away, shower, change out of my pj's, etc.). 

-So what if I am procrastinating on calling the Dr and scheduling my appointments for stuff I'm really dreading....(first being getting a colonoscopy due to my family history and second is to see an allergist). 

-So what if I have completely gone off of my diet while on vacation.  Between the choco tacos, wine, and Mickey D's every morning, I'll be surprised if I didn't gain 10 lbs. 

-So what if my goal this week is to get through all of the old shows on my DVR.  We should all have goals, right?

-So what if my son's favorite toy is a bottle of zantac.  It's cheap and I can refill the empty ones with water when the medicine is gone.
