1. Yesterday as I walked into Target I realized two things: 1) This was the third time in 3 days I had been to Target and 2) I was wearing the exact same outfit for all 3 trips. I then gave #2 a little more thought…the clothes I put on Monday morning I also slept in Monday night, wore all day Tuesday, slept in Tuesday night and wore Wednesday morning to Target…yet again. Send reinforcements please…and cookies.
2. I am happy to report I finally showered and put on some different clothes yesterday afternoon. You can all sleep easier tonight.
3. There is always time for kindness…especially in the form of THESE whoopie pies and I am an emotional eater so I enjoyed 1 or 2 as well. Baked goods can change the world…and your waste line 🙂
4. I ran yesterday. It was like glory. Any runners out there ever do HIIT (high intensity interval training) workouts on the treadmill? I decided starting in January I was going to start doing them to mix my running up. I found one HERE which I loved and it lets you get in some fast running…so good. Then yesterday I tried THIS ONE. Oh wow. Hardly any fast running, but I was drenched in sweat. I like to think I’m in decent shape, but it kicked my butt. If you have any good ones you like I would love to hear about them. I have a few more I really want to try.
5. Dressing a little girl is too fun. Geez its been a long time since we’ve had a tiny lady in the house.
6. Today I am getting a flippin’ root canal. Can you tell I’m super excited? I have never been a stressed dental person, but I am absolutely that person now. You would think I am dying. When I go in I just want to ask them to put me to sleep…give me the good stuff…I don’t want to remember a thing.
7. He always meets me right where I am.
8. And wow with the baby foods. Amon is gaga over these puff things. I only let him have a few and remind him they’re for the little miss. Josh Kelley said, “I’m with him. The blueberry ones smell like heaven.” And what about those crazy little packets of food…you just twist the top off, hand it over and the kiddo does all the work. Josh and I were so baffled. Hahaha, it doesn’t take much.
Hope everyone’s week is going fantastic. It’s almost Friday!
Happy Thursday!

A girl! Sigh …. is Harper in love?
Oh yes. Big time!
Puffs are awesome! We like the Strawberry Apple in our house
They also have refillable food packets… I think boogin is the brand. We love them.
We fostered for a year before we adopted our son from the foster care system. Were you told that you can apply for WIC for her? That is a federal program, administered by each state, and they provided us with allowance for all various food items and also monitored our son’s physical development. I just thought I would mention that to you in case you weren’t aware..it was a HUGE help! I loved fostering!
Yes we were. We’re still working through all the “firsts” details. Thanks for thinking about us 🙂
Laura – thank you for the whoopie pie. It was delicious and perfect for the stressful week we’ve had at school. Also I wanted you to know when I gave an example to the class about New Year’s resolutions and mine said to “eat healthier” it was only an example. I found out my precious over observant Harper thought that meant no more baked goods for the teacher. : ) Please never hesitate to send your delicious treats – I will just exercise a little more : ) love your girl!
Hahahaha, oh I got a big warning right after the first of the year when I made some goodies for school. “Mom you can’t send those for Ms Eklond anymore. One of her resolutions is to eat healthier.” She told Josh all about it too. I just keep sending them in 🙂
