Wednesday already? Holy crap, where is time going?
I predict today will be a busy day, as I've only been here an hour and already have accomplished a ton.
Derek bought a new Xbox last night, so there goes my TV watching time. Not a bad thing, really. While he and Erin were playing COD I went out for a walk and even threw in a bit of running. It's the first time (other than baseball) that I've attempted running since I hurt my foot, and it wasn't bad! It doesn't hurt that I'm 12 pounds lighter either.
Tonight, workout for sure, I'm feeling slovenly lately, and dinner, nothing major. Maybe a short run?
How is everyone today?

We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

Re: Happy Hump Day!
I managed to pull something in my neck yesterday, while standing still. After that I was upset that I wouldn't be able to work out so to make myself feel better I ate chocolate and fried food. My neck is still sore today, but my spirits are up. Although I still probably won't be able to workout I'm hoping to be slightly more productive when I get home tonight.
We did try out a new restaurant for dinner last night (where I enjoyed my fried food). It is in the town that we live in, and it serves alcohol. The food was pretty good so I'm excited. The town that I live in was dry up until a year or two ago, so this is now one of two restaurants in town that serves alcohol.
I was so productive yesterday! I got in a 6 mile run, went grocery shopping, and then wrote my 9 page paper for my class, and finished the last blog entry and discussion board post, so I am officially done with my summer class! Woot! The only thing I didn't get done yesterday was mowing the lawn because it started to rain. I may be able to this afternoon if the rain lets up and the grass dries, otherwise I will do it tomorrow.
Besides possibly mowing the lawn, my only plans for today are getting in a short run, doing some reading, and doing a couple of loads of laundry...exciting stuff!

Morning everyone. The end of last week was pretty nuts, and then B and I took off OOT for a few days to catch up with some friends. We had a blast, and got to lounge on the beach for a few hours too. It was super relaxing, but boy am I sunburned. Oops.
Last night we went to the Cubs game. It was fun, but man, they are just awful this season!
Today is going to be a catch up day at work, and hopefully I can clean my office. Tonight will involve massive amounts of laundry!
Hope everyone has a good one.
Good morning! Yesterday afternoon was almost a bust thanks to delays on my train line, but I did manage to get home after a bit and did a run at the gym. We then had flank steak tacos for dinner--delicious.
Tonight's an off night from the gym, so we're just going to have an early dinner and then call it quits for the day. We both have early doctor appointments tomorrow, so we have to fast for our blood work. We're seeing a new doctor since our old one was way out where I used to work, so I'm a bit nervous--my old doctor was awesome. If this is a bust, I'm willing to go back, but it'd be kind of a commuting hassle. We'll see.
Hope it's a good one, all.

This is totally me! I think I have 3 scarves and a sweater going at the moment, and I'm not making any progress on any of them.
Good morning ladies.
It feels like fall already - currently 59* with a high today of 79*. We'll probably have snow next month.
More work - I'm trying to get everything done before we go oot next week for my Brother's wedding.
Have a great day, everyone!
Happy Hump Day,
I'm happy to report that Myles slept really well last night, minus a few wake ups to snuggle and eat. I'm so glad the new formula, and bottles are working like magic! Which makes for a happy mommy and daddy.
Today I am a little sad, we found out a year ago today that we were having triplets, but it's easier having Myles here and knowing they helped us bring him home.
The plan for today is just relax because the next few days are going to be crazy because I'm standing up in a wedding this weekend.
Yawn today is another day closer to Friday.
Last night was fun. I went to the park with Dh, BIL and his gf. I feel like I haven't seen them in ages. We then went to our local pub for some beer and food. It was a great night but I was so tired by the time I got back that I curled up in bed and zonked out.
Good Morning Ladies.
Last night was a very productive evening. My mom is still in town and when I got home from work she had all of our baby stuff out, had done and "inventory" for me and started on the laundry. By the end of the night we had all of the clothes and blankets washed and folded!
We also started working on a list of things we still need and I feel so much better and more prepared. I even have the diaper bag packed and all ready to go.
Today, just a normal work day then we are meeting up with my mom and sisters at the art museum, taking a walk around the lake and having dinner.
Have a great hump day ladies!
Bio, now with married pics...
Good morning!
I had a very uneventful evening, just dinner and a few chores. Today is just another busy day in the office. Tonight I need to pick up a few things for our trip this weekend and find someone to watch Bailey while we're gone. Exciting stuff....
I'm exhausted, but it comes with the territory I suppose. Jackson decided he wanted to eat almost every 2 hours yesterday and into last night. Thankfully, his bath helped him relax a little. He's back at it this morning, though. He'll fuss for a good hour or so before actually waking up.
Today is my first day home by myself. So far so good, minus trying to get bottles cleaned while having a screaming baby waiting for one of those bottles to get filled. The dogs weren't thrilled with all the noise. I think they're just as tired from having a new baby in the house.
Good morning!
Another busy day at work today and I also some how got sucked into being vice president of the local soccer league for little kids. So now I am trying to help get everything ready for that. Jordan loves soccer and I like soccer much better than tball so I told Eli i don't mind doing soccer if he can do baseball haha.
Good morning ladies. Today my boss and I are going to a meeting offsite and then going out to lunch. We were supposed to do that yesterday but it didn't happen so we're going today instead.
Tonight one of DH's friends is coming over for dinner and I'm cooking. I'm making pasta, garlic bread and if I have time I'll make a salad. My dad may also be coming over to help fix a few things around the house but he wasn't sure. Have a great day ladies!
Just got home a few minutes ago. It's my birthday!
We just went and signed the papers to get our new house tomorrow and gave the bank our hard earned downpayment. Tonight we go over for our final walk through.
Work wasn't too bad. I had a hard time staying busy because my patient's charts were unavailable much of the day.
Now DH is making me chocolate chip pancakes (with skittles for dessert) and after the walk through I'm going to go for a run.
All around, an awesome day.
