Finished!

Finally got around to hanging up our recent projects. Actually I hung them at the end of last week and then, as usual, it took a few more days to remember to take pics.

Sidebar - I only created 2 extra holes and a few scratches, of which I managed to patch and then touch up with the wrong shade of paint. Oh, and the pics always make the room look so rinky dink and boring, but, it looks really good as a whole, if you ask me.

Two is the first loser

Britt can count...to one!
He has been doing this with everything this weekend, here's a tidbit from breakfast yesterday.

Britt helped me frame Reagan's birth announcement today. An inexpensive frame from Walmart and two pieces of leftover scrapbook paper and wha-la! I cut, he glued. He HAD to get in the finished picture, black eye and all.

On that subject, I don't know exactly how it happened, I think he took a running header into one of his million trucks a few days ago. It keeps looking worse, but the tough guy look fits him well.

If you're wondering about last arts 'n crafts project, it's still sitting on the floor of the nursery, but I promise y'all, I'll get the center pic in and have it hanging soon.

On a Roll

I've caught Reagan on her belly twice now, although I've yet to see the actual roll. She gets in a funny position trying to lay on her side and suck her thumb, and I think the rest just kind of happens.

Hopefully I'll have a video soon. This child is getting way too big way too fast!

Arts & Crafts Day

I've had this idea to use all (or at least as many as I could) of the cards we received for Reagan's birth for a little custom piece for her nursery. Let's face it, much of the nursery is hand-me-downs from Britt, so this gave it a little personal girly touch, and is sentimental as well. In the center is her birth announcement, but I'm thinking I might replace it with a photo from her newborn shoot (yes I finally placed my order, they are en route to the House of Marshall). Thoughts?

This is a 16x20 frame with large mat (actually one of those "wedding" ones you sign) from Hobby Lobby. Of course I got it half off, so this is a $20 project...frugalness at it's best! I'll post another pic when we hang it over the rocker in the nursery (hoping that will be sometime this decade).

FYI...shadow makes it look off center, but I promise it is perfect :-)

GTL

I realized yesterday that we had pulled off our own little version of GTL...Orlando family style that is.

We hit up the Y for 8:15 spin, which is early to get the kiddos out to the Gym, but they got to have the nursery to themselves. Then we did a little swimming after spin...well Justin and Britt did a little swimming, Reagan and I Tanned on the pool deck, and she had a bottle. Then we headed back home to catch up on Laundry and yard work. Everyone got a little nap, Justin and I caught up on Big Brother, and we finished off the day with a big night out at the Foxworthy house grilling out burgers and playing with the babies. I even managed to have a glass of wine. That's how we role Marshall style.

Btw, three spins this week, legs are hurtin! I'm dreading starting to run outside again. I think I might have to start going at 4am after Reagan's early morning feeding.

I'm Insane...

...for choosing to do an Insanity workout today versus running. Actually, it wasn't as horrible as I had told myself in my crazy head, plus I think it turned out to be a much better decision than truckin it in this heat.

For those of you who've noticed those miles on that cute little ticker next to this post have not moved in two weeks, it's because of two things: one, I was super sick with mastitis last week (don't ask, just Google it), and two, the week prior I ran only once and took spin three times, woop woop! Spin is one of those workouts that you love to hate and hate to love. I tell ya one thing, I can't kick my own ass that hard, so it's nice to just show up, drop B&R off in the nursery, and let someone else hand it to me on a platter. Our Lake Nona YMCA got new spin bikes too, which I love because they show you how hard your working. I'm definitely going to keep spin in the rotation, and even an Insanity workout or two, when my half training starts in two weeks. This gal is bound and determined to wear another bathing suit besides the "Momkini" this summer (good thing it's summer through October here in FL)...

Thumb Sucker

We have a thumb sucker...the video shows her method of getting it in her mouth EVERY time. I'm sure I'm going to regret this when she's going into kindergarten with it still stuck in her mouth.
