Three Things Thursday
1. One of the neighbors has a motorcycle and it makes a tremendous amount of noise at 8:00 or so every morning. 
2. I'm pretty sure Emma doesn't understand the phrase "please be quiet, Lily's sleeping," because in her mind it seems to mean "time to run around like crazy and make lots of noise." 
3. I was able to squeeze in 18 minutes on my "bike" yesterday and so far have gotten 25 minutes in today. It's not much, but you have to start somewhere.

Re: Three Things Thursday
1. My baby shared his cold with me, probably due in part to his love of giving me dental exams.
2. I may go home early today because I just feel run down and am not getting anything done anyway.
3. To end on a positive note, I brought an orange with my lunch and it's delicious!
1. I have to admit that this (above) almost made me gag.
2. I wish it was Friday.
3. I am looking forward to the dog shows at Cobo Hall this weekend. *fingers crossed for a good weekend*
1. After hearing horror stories about the glucose drinks, I found it not to be all that bad. tasted like orange gatorade.
2. although I found #1 not to be bad, I hope I pass so I do not have to take the 3 hour test!!
3. I really need to lay off the carbs. The amount I have eaten over the past few days is almost embarrassing. almost.

1. This week is flying by, which is a good thing, but with no students, I'd hoped it would stretch out a little longer.
2. This baby inside my belly is REALLY starting to wear me out. I think I am more tired than I was in the 1st trimester, and the ligament and stretching pain is worse than it was a few months ago! (although, my bump is pretty small, so maybe that's why).
3. My oldest nephew turned 13 today. I can't believe he is a teenager!!!!
1. My new fridge is now installed. My DH is so handy.
2. Unfortunately while we were moving the old one, we scratched the wood floor. Oops. The floor was already ugly and we need to refinish it at some point so oh well.
3. I am scared for the kitchen renovation--rather, I am scared of not being able to do what we want and stay in our budget. I am excited for it to be a new kitchen, though!
that's great! better than nothing...25 minutes is a lot with your two littles!
Doing a lot of the work yourselves will save quite a bit, so stay positive!
2. I wish I was more motivated to clean up and pack things up for the weekend trip
3. I need to make up a day (and then after the weekend 3 more days) on my Lent. Is that cheating?
Getting back to it- my diet and exercise blog
Losing it...Without Losing it
I've already cheated too! I feel like It's gonna be impossible to go 40 days without potato chips! ...I'll probably cheat tonight at my sister's house!
1. I have been SO busy today!
2. It seems like the more I try to get things off my plate before leaving for the cruise next week, the more things people remember they need me to do before I go... Not cool co-workers... not cool!
3. I am a bit disappointed with my lunch... I'm sitting here eating sauteed brussels sprouts from dinner last night. Not the most exciting lunch... (but pretty healthy, which i guess is the goal!)

LOL - I don't encourage it, he just sticks his little hand in there quite fast when I'm talking to him. I remove it because he isn't gentle - he will grab my lip and pull hard! I think because he has no teeth he finds mine so intriguing? Or maybe he's trying to say "shut up mom"?
