Still Here

Hello all! I realize I've been neglecting this blog recently. No reason other than the fact that I have been a bad mommy and don't take many pictures these days. That and the fact that we haven't done anything new and exciting lately. We do plenty to keep our days full and busy, but I've just already blogged/scrapped about them:) I figure you guys don't want to see 12 posts about our visits to the zoo. Anyhoo, I plan on getting my camera out a little more and updating this thing sooner! Enough of this boring blog business!!! Until next time...... here a few random things to ponder.

Random bits:

1. May days recently have been filled with keeping our very mobile 10 month old away from big brother's train table. Of course, since it is seen as the "forbidden" toy in his room, it's the only thing she wants. I have no desire to re-do Eil's train track 30 times a day, so instead, I'm constantly pulling Kamdyn off the table and trying to divert her attention elsewhere (not very successfully either I might add)

2. I've been spending my nap times trying to get in shape. Well, not the entire nap time, just 30 minutes. I've been doing Jillian's (from The Biggest Loser) 30 day shred. I told myself I would commit to doing this work out every day for 30 days. I finished day 17 today. Go ME!! I have a love hate relationship with this workout. It's not too long, so it is definitely a doable work-out, but it does take up some of my much-loved naptime. Plus, I'd much rather just be lazy and sit around doing nothing. But I do feel like it's starting to work some. My butt may be slightly less jiggly and my post-baby flub (abs) are more like post-baby flab now. And only when I sit:) When I'm standing, they look pretty good, much better than what they were when I started. Progress! I have high hopes for the second half of this workout.

3. Maybe if I stopped eating junk my workouts would be much effective. But, seeing as that probably won't happen anytime soon, I guess I will just have to work twice as hard.

4. I do my workouts in my underwear. I get too hot otherwise! B came down the stairs the other day when I was working out during naptime and just smiled. I told him that was why I couldn't work out in the gym, I get too hot to wear all my clothes. So, if you come over during naptime, you never know what you might see. Just kidding, if I have to answer the door, I will put all my clothes on for you:)

5. Velour leggings....need I say more? They should probably be illegal. It kind of frightens me that I've been seeing them everywhere.

6. I've been spending the other half of my naptimes working on christmas presents and making some very fun scarves. I should probably stop blog stalking. If I did, I would not find so many fun new projects that I want to do. Then I would have more time during naptime for scrapbooking! I have too many hobbies as it is! Not nearly enough hours in the day to do what I want to get done!

7. Our Christmas cards are done! Now I just have to get them in the mail in a couple of weeks....that should be the easy part...I hope:) Stay tuned for those.

Ok, I'm off to do some photo editing. I have not done any scrapbooking since my craft weekend in October. I am going through some serious withdrawls! I have a little bit of catching up to do:)
