Fitness Friday

I didn't lose any weight this week (well, 0.2 but that hardly counts) but I didn't really try, either.  I was still working on getting rid of the last of the Easter candy and just not very motivated.  It's so weird.  Sometimes I am SO motivated and eat perfectly and exercise most days and can resist candy and chocolate and cookies and you name it for several days in a row, sometimes 2 or 3 weeks, but it never lasts more than a few weeks (even if I allow for the occasional treat), and usually not more than 4 or 5 days.  I don't know why.  Well, yes I do.  I'm a sugar addict.  Pure and simple.

Anyway, I didn't eat that great but I rocked on C25K.  Last Friday I did week 5 day 3, which is the "big" 20 minute run, and I did it with relative ease and even did an extra 3 minutes just 'cause I wanted to finish the song.  Monday I did week 6 day 1 plus some strength and Wednesday I did week 6 day 2 plus some strength.  Tomorrow I'll do week 6 day 3 which is 22 minutes.  I'm looking forward to it, especially since it should be nice enough to run outside.

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours.  Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over.  We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins.  I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do.  They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white.  It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side.  I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done.  We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains.  We're also going to paint.  I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...
