moving on up

mya had conquered crawling up one or two steps a few weeks ago; however, i was home sick with the girls on friday when i heard pounding on the steps. i ran over to the stairs only to find our one and only mya hammering away at the third step. she had nearly reached the landing. i watched and guided her up a few more then darted for my camera. it was quite the eventful scene as i had just asked claire on video how her tummy was feeling to which she responded, "my tummy not feel good." oh yeah, moments later, claire was sitting on the step, vomit dripping down the lower three steps and mya looked on from above. in true kara fashion, and my sick desire to capture all things gross, i captured a picture. my apologies to those with weak stomachs. it was quite the day. my poor little bubbies.

Kara, you are a good photographer, no matter the subject. I know just how little Claire was feeling just by the look on her little face, (poor baby).

Mya has gotten so big, and quite the climber. She is growing so fast, what a little sweetie. She looks like she is having a great time.

Just think soon they will be running around together, oh what a wonderful time you will have with them.

Sweetness Overload

So, we are still roughing it in our amazingly, wonderfully fabulous, new house. That means, air mattresses in our living room. Fun. The girls love it, Chris and I not so much ;) Anyway, the close proximity means Chris and I get to eavesdrop on some very tender moments. They seriously bring tears to my eyes. How did we get so lucky to have them as our children??? Here's one example. Claire--"Mya, can we snuggle?" Mya--"sure." Claire--"don't let go." Mya--"No, I'll just wait until you are sleeping." Claire--"No, you wait until the middle of the night." Mya--"Okay, I'll wait until the middle of the night." Then we hear lips smacking. So cute. I won't share the meltdown that occured moments before this sweetness ;) Life isn't always rosey, now is it? Ha! In other news..we get internet today and our furniture/things tomorrow! That means 1 more night of "roughing it!" Yippee!

0.0

Yes, indeeedy do. 0.0 is exactly the amount of weight I lost this week. Irritating! Here's the breakdown: number of times I cheated on my diet--ZERO! number of times I worked out--FIVE!! (running, no less). Now that is a mean, mean slap in the face. After I picked myself off the floor and resisted the urge to throw the scale through my window, I've come to realize that it is time to call in the big guns. There will be no messing around. Through a very valuable (HA!--sense the sarcasm) inservice this year, I've learned that I am "Green," meaning logical, research based, problem solver, mathmatical thinker. I am applying the same thought and strategy to my 'get fit' adventure. There will be no relying on the treadmill to tell me how much I've burned. That thing lies, LIES, LIES!! Take for example, the fact that each time I worked out, I burned at least 300 calories--most often 350, my pulse was around 87 (which is pretty much a near death resting ...

Claire Crawling

Claire is finally crawling. We saw her move forward a bit on Saturday for the first time, but she didn't last long enough to capture it on video. She finally crawled for a bit longer today. She isn't going very far, but is great to have achieved this incredible milestone. Now Harvest better watch out!
