This and that

I've been running again, and seeing the benefits. Sleeping is better, my appetite is somewhat normal so my goal is to stay with for at least another month. I would like to make it to 20 weeks before having to jog. This Saturday the hubs and I have another 5k followed by date night, which were looking forward too. Checked out the forecast and the coldest day is will be Saturday, such a bummer. Praying for a warm up! This past Saturday I surprised myself and ran 9:37 miles. Completed 4.65 miles in 43 minutes-I hadn't ran that particular loop since December.
We've been having fun with Valentine day crafts-last night we made heart puppets. From items I had here at home. I'm bringing them with me to Lydia's aquatic therapy so Isabelle and I can play whole Lydia gets her PT in.
Not only did Lydia take her first steps last week, but later on that evening I felt the little flutters and movement of our baby. It's so cool and exciting-to me the best part of being pregnant is feeling your baby move. Or course the few days leading up to the movement I thought I had gas, but no, as I paid more attention to what I was feeling it was clear. :)
Isabelle just amazes me daily with the words she knows, her helpful actions, and then of course her dramatic outbursts. We is so excited about the baby. I was 5 when my little sister was born and remember a lot of it, so I hope she'll remember this stuff.
I am obsessed with granola, whether on fruit, in yogurt, it makes my whirls go round.
Hummus has me making moaning sounds-thank goodness no one seems to notice them.
Lately I can't turn my brain off when my head hits the pillow, so I've been reading more. That seems to tire my mind quickly, Lord knows my body is ready for sleep but the wheels keep turning. I blame that on the pregnancy.
October 2010 I was in a wedding, 1 bridesmaid was 1 month post baby, and 3 of us bridesmaids were pregnant with in 2 months after the wedding. Now 3 of us our expecting again, how funny is that? It seems like the pregnant women I know are popping up left and right.
You may have noticed my lack of photos on here. I have decided to longer post pictures. You may randomly get an arts or craft picture, or a baby bump photo, but I'm leaving my hubs and kiddos out. It makes me so uncomfortable to know anyone can copy a photo of mine and instead of continually having it bother me I have decided to end the photos. I've been back and forth with this issue a lot since having kids and my sweet husband had the simple idea to just not put photos up anymore! I love how to the point the man can be. I considered water marking my photos, making my blog private, etc...but this seems to be the easiest. I've done the same for Facebook. I've had to many issues with what I put out for others to see and when it comes to my girls I get weird about it. Rather than keep being bothered by the whole deal, I will just end it. :)

Its time for my girls and I to start our day...

Happy Tuesday!
