233/365: Kamin sent me these pictures of Sophie and Hudson. Don't they favor quite a bit? I also made some yummy zucchini chips in the oven and they were a huge hit. Well, I was the only one home to enjoy them, but I am definitely a fan! 234/365: Have I mentioned, Killer (our OUTSIDE cat) thinks she lives inside. Taz likes to bring her in for an hour or so every afternoon to play and I almost always find her in the dollhouse. 235/365: I got this very sweet text message from the hubs on Wednesday. He was working in Iowa and he thinks he's so funny. 236/365: His flight got in in the middle of the day, so he picked me up at work and we went to Rogue Tavern for lunch downtown. I had a chicken quesadilla (heavenly) and he had a brisket sandwich and sweet potato fries. 237/365: It's time ...

Dailies / Week 34
226/365: Monday was the first day of first grade! How is my baby so big? She wanted sponge rollers and colored, skinny jeans and a new backpack with zebra print detail for the first day. Imagine that. I'm so thankful for sweet teacher friends because I got this pick of Ella and her best boy, Connor, on the first grade hall later that day! Man I'm gonna have some great pictures for their wedding slideshow one day! 227/365: Ummm, this album finally came out and I am one happy girlfriend. I mean girl. I also packed watermelon and my favorite pasta salad for lunch that day. Yummy. 228/365: Oh, Wednesday was super eventful. I had been nursing a pulled shoulder muscle for three days and finally couldn't take it any more. I ran to the doctor first thing and slept off the muscle relaxer ...
Dailies / Week 33
219/365: Lots of working out! 220/365: I was super happy to discover I could stream Mayer's entire album from iTunes a whole week early. I was jamming out at my desk all day long. 221/365: The highway I drive to work is a disaster right now. It is under major construction and makes the commute miserable. Of course, rain just makes it worse. At least I had my morning Shakeology and a pretty cute cup! 222/365: The window washers were out in full force this morning. I'm on the seventh floor and it always surprised me when they drop into view. I'm always wondering if they can see me working (or taking pictures of them, in this case!). Later that day, Ella & I went to school to meet her first grade teacher and check out her new room! 223/365: On Friday, the girls got to stay home ...
Dailies / Week 32
212/365: After a long weekend at the beach, I was happy to get our sweet brother-cousin back in my hands. How do babies grow so much in three days?! 213/365: I bought a super cute red dress at the Banana Republic Outlet store for $20. It is seriously one of my favorite articles things to wear. I paired it with these fun tribal print shoes for work on Tuesday. They are also a recent acquisition. It's pretty fabulous to have an aunt who wears the same size as you, has excellent taste in shoes and managed to have a sack to give away every other month. 214/365: Bells could finally swap her earrings, so we celebrated with some cute, tiny butterfly studs. Can you believe these were mine in high school? I had quite the thing for winged creatures. 215/365: On Thursday, the odometer in the ...
Dailies / Week 31
211/365: On Monday, I finished up Ella's birthday invitations and added folding laundry to her chore list. Can we talk about what a REVELATION it has been to have her folding tiny laundry. #lifechanging 212/365: Seriously. It must not have happened. 213/365: On Wednesday, Ella had her first eye exam. We were worried after observing her over the summer, that she might need glasses. Fortunately, everything looked normal and we only left with plastic sunglasses. I couldn't decided if she was disappointed or not! 214/365: On Thursday, I made this cute little graphic for my August goals and got a Fitness Friday post all ready for the weekend. BECAUSE, I was headed to the beach. 215/365: The Hangout in Gulf Shores with friends. 210/365: Lulu's for dinner with friends. 211/365: Shrimp ...
Dailies / Week 30
204/365: I was FINALLY able to do a freestanding headstand by myself at yoga! I had some friends spotting me, but I was strong enough to hold it all by myself. 205/265: On Tuesday, Josh & I helped the girls make a body parts chart in Spanish because he wants them to learn a second language. After they were sound asleep, I ran over to snuggle the little one all by myself. 206/365: On Wednesday, I ran a virtual 5k at lunch to celebrate Marta's birthday! She's my beachbody coach and a wonderful fitness inspiration. Then I grabbed Urban Cookhouse for dinner on the way home and we took it over to K's. Again. And there was more snuggle time. Are you sensing a theme. I honestly have no idea what happened to Thursday and Friday. They disappeared. I mean, we must not have done ...
Dailies / Week 29
197/365: After a week post-vacation, I finally felt like I was in the groove of things. Shakeology for breakfast and good runs for lunch. 198/365: Tuesday night was our cousin Molly's birthday and we had ice cream and cake to celebrate. I can usually say no, but when the chocolate cake/white icing makes an appearance along with mint chocolate ice cream, I have no restraint. 199/365: Wednesday morning I got in a few more miles. I was getting ready for Mayer's newest album and had been listening to my favorites that week. Those are lyrics from one of my favorite songs. 200/265: Even though Killer the Cat lives outside, she likes to come in and play when we get home in the afternoons. She is such a cutie and we've not had a single accident inside (that we know of). I caught her lounging ...
Dailies / Week 28
190/365: The Monday after our NYC there were no photographs. I was just trying to survive. There was laundry to fold and groceries to buy and babies to love on. Photos weren't high on the list. 191/365: On Tuesday, Taz crawled up in the bed with me and took a nap. She's wearing her "I Heart NY" t-shirt. They barely took those off the entire first week we were home. 192/365: On Wednesday, I finally went for a run. It was good to be back in a routine after our trip full of yummy food and little exercise. 193/365: On Thursday it was more of the same... eat good food and exercise. 194/365: On Friday night we went out with three other couples and had the BEST time. We had Italian for dinner and a few games at the bowling alley. There was a ton of Instagramm-ing going on, a little dancing ...
