Butt Fly and the Slander Party

I actually feel like blogging today. I haven’t had alot of time to lately. I posted the other two posts cause they made me laugh so hard. Most of the videos are so such crappy quality that youtube will probably laugh at me for posting them, but I might anyways.Heres the Snowboarding one.

The title is one of the funnier parts of my week. We looked after Elijah and Janaya on Saturday. They are 1.5 and 4 yrs. That was the day Emily learned her first 3 syllable word.”Butt Fly”. So what if she turned it into a two syllable word. it cracked me up. She says it better already. I’m a bit sad that she does. Her second 3 syllable word was “cheerio”. The while playing all day Janaya played with Emily’s little phone and was pretending to talk to her friend Asia. Lucky for Janaya because she got invited to Asia’s “Slander Party”. I looked over at Morgan and said “I’ve been to some of those, they’re awful”. We are still laughing about it and thinking of throwing our own “Slander Party”.

You haven’t lived until you’ve had a Diaper explode in the washing machine. How it got there I’ll never know, but what I do know is that I had to re-wash everything and pick up a “butt load” of the jelly diaper stuff. I’m just glad it wasn’t a poopy. icky icky icky.

I’ve started running with Morgan. I was going to do the podcast for running about 3 months ago, but that never happened. I’ve been waiting to blog about it unlit I actually made it into the second week of running every second day. The podcast has techno music to run too and a guy that tells you when to run and when to walk, so you don’t have to look at your watch. its called from the couch to 5K in 9 weeks. We are on week 2 which means we run for 9 minutes already. In intervals of 1minute and 30 seconds with a walk in between. It sounds easy, but when the guys says lets speed back up for the 5th time, you want to kill him or at least make him wax his legs or something. I’ve been walking everyday too. A couple of times I’ve finished my walk and gone straight into the creek.

We walk and run with Emily in the jogging stroller. She loves the running, but sometimes gets bored with the walking. She sings to herself while we are doing “The Loop” around town. Man we would love to be back at the “8″. Running the lakes would be so much more fun. I want to get one of those behind your bike style baby carts. I think you can get them cheaper at a MEC gear swap. I’m hoping we can pick one up soon because I love to ride my bike.

I’m getting my wedding ring and engagement rings soldered together this week. I talked to my jeweler and they think its a good idea to do. The two rings rubbing together can make them wear down really fast. I’m not sure I’ll like them that way, but here’s hoping. She said she didn’t recommend I get that done if I only wore my wedding band to work or something, but I always wear both. I guess I could see it if I wore rubber gloves all day or something like that. My engagement ring would be to sticky outey for that. I can pick up my rings tomorrow. I feel nakey without them on.

Em is waking up. I think we’ll walk down to the library and check the mail. The Library has cardboard books for Em so I think we’ll pick some new ones up today. Oh and Em got some new Robeez today. They are so cute(brown w/hearts). She changed sizes again. We picked some new ones from the catalogue (white trainers)and they’ll be here next month.

You Are a Credit to Your Race.

This week is still going good on the Kick my Butt plan. I slowed a bit in the last two days, but that would be due to me drinking less water and a delicious London Fog. I’m drinking alot more water today so thats good. I really wish it wasn’t raining. I want to take Emily for a walk sooo bad, but its so yucky out.

I just put her down for a nap. She was starting to get whiny and came up to me saying “nigh nigh” over and over again. It was so cute. Needless to say she fell asleep really fast and Mommy is enjoying some down time. Wahoo! So I put some laundry in and snagged a bottle of water from the fridge and came upstairs to type away. I turned on itunes, but didn’t really feel like listening to anything in particular so I decided to enjoy the silence. Definitely weird for me.

Relay For Life is coming up next week. I’m not doing as good as I was hoping on my fundraising. I’m at $285 right now. I usually hit $400. I guess I have one more week to go, so we’ll see. It’s probably because I didn’t just have an o-so-cute baby this year. Thats ok with me. I’m glad I didn’t. Cause then I might look like I did in my last years pictures. I have come so far. I decided I was going to post my last years Relay picture along with a recent picture. Its hard to look at, but one does need to every once in a while. I was still me, but there was alot more of me to love last year. 48 pounds more. Kinda makes me shudder.

I’m trying to decide if I should take this running challenge I found out about. Its a podcast that can get you from the couch to 5K in like 10 weeks. I think I’d like to do it, but I’m not sure how Ill be able to time wise. I guess I managed to make time for the gym so maybe…hmm. It’d be neat to be able to run 5K. I never thought running was worth doing unless you were kicking a soccer ball, but now I see it as a time to get outside and enjoy where I live. And I’d get a chance to be alone! gotta take those chances when you get them.
