Terrible 2’s. I try to keep her happy, but sometimes she just wants to scream!

april 034 All I did was stop the wagon so I could take a picture and she freaked out!! The wagon was stopped for about 2 seconds so I could walk to the side to take a picture and this happens. She has mood swings like crazy – I have wondered, is this puberty or terrible 2’s?? But I know it’s coming and going to stay for a while.

I did get some good pictures from this walk…but just a few. I couldn’t stop for long…

Then home for a bath…

april 067april 068  Farm animals at their best…she makes them kiss…

april 075 when she plays with bath toys at all. She banned them for months. She would only play with a towel. Nothing else could be in the water with her. I had to get the camera since she was playing with toys. I’m glad I did…

april 082 Then we decided to put Aliza in the tub with Marielle and Jon took over the camera. Even though my hair was wet and there’s no make-up on, I authorized pictures. Only because I am never in pictures, since I am always behind the camera. I do need some documentation that there is actually a mom in my kids lives…

april 083 There is no stopping it. When one cries, the other cries. It just happens…

But not for long. Marielle wanted kisses in a matter of seconds…

Run. I ran on the treadmill finally today, for the first time since I got pregnant with Marielle. I have been working out on and off since I was 19. I was in college and I noticed that I was out of shape since playing high school volleyball (that first year of college may have also contributed to my out-of-shapeness) and decided to join a gym. I got a trainer and had a few workouts and I stuck with it pretty well through college. When I met Jon, he worked out as well, so it was easy for me to keep up with it. When we got married, we both worked out (usually) 4 days a week. We would get up at 5:00 and go to our separate gyms (I go to an all women’s gym) Monday through Thursday. I even continued to work out all through out my pregnancy with Marielle, but I couldn’t run from the very beginning. When I found out I was pregnant, I kept working out just as hard as usual and started spotting, so I quit running and eased up on my workouts. That was about October or November of 2007. Afte...

A friend in need.

I have a friend. An old friend. A funny friend. A favorite friend. Her name is Jaime Marrs. She was one of my 5 friends at my actual wedding and has been such a fun part of my life. I met Jaime just before my sophomore year in high school, probably in the summertime when we started practicing volleyball. She was a freshman who made the team, but man, what I remember most about her was her attitude. It's not so much that she had a bad attitude, it was that she always had a scowl on her face. I didn't like her. She didn’t talk much and didn’t smile. And she was dating one of the hottest seniors. How dare her? Anyway, one day she didn't have a ride home from volleyball practice. I was riding home with Jill, and Jill offered her a ride. On this ride we talked and laughed and I realized that this scowled-faced girl was pretty funny. I guess the rest is history because Jaime became one of my best friends throughout the rest of high school, through college, through kids, and sti...
