Fitness Friday

I'm finally getting things moving in the right direction.  I'm down 1.8 pounds as of yesterday (I weighed a day early because I knew we were having pizza for dinner and didn't want to weigh the day after that).

Last Saturday I had my best run ever.  I ran 3.5 miles!  Including a long hill at the end.  It felt amazing.  I set out to run again on Monday, but I was still a bit sore and I just couldn't do it again.  I think I ran about a mile give or take before I had to stop and walk, then I tried to run a few more times but not very far.  Tonight will be my first run since Monday, so hopefully I can do ~3 miles again.  Meanwhile, I did the 30 Day Shred on Tuesday, Zumba on Wednesday, and the Shred again yesterday.  I hadn't done Zumba in forever, so that was really fun, but I really can't wait to run again.  I never thought I'd say this but I actually kind of like it.

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...
