Some things I'm doing and or loving right now just to bring everyone a "non-baby" update...
1. The Keurig- After C'mas we bought a Keurig. It just made since b/c I drink coffee EVERY day so I figured it would be worth it have one. It is life changing!!! I love it so much it is ridiculous. My favorite coffee so far is the Caribou coffee. But I went ahead and bought the my k-cup thing so that I could put my own coffee in it too. This is so I don't have to work in a coffee budget to our finances! I'm flying through k-cups over here.
2. Running- I love when I'm done with my training run but hate my existence while I'm doing it. T and I just finished week 1 of 1/2 marathon training. Yay, only 13 more to go! Our long run was on Saturday and was supposed to be 4 miles. T and I ran through the downtown area whilst he pushed the jogging stroller leisurely and I quasi vomited on the side of the road. Just kidding, it never got that far but there was a lot of walking on my part that I'm not proud of. Downtown is hilly. During the run, I was thinking this is lasting FOREVER. When we got home we learned that we had actually run 4.7 miles instead of 4. T had not calculated correctly. Week before last was the first time I had run a mile in a year and a half. And during that time period I ate like crap, sat on the couch, grew a fetus inside of me and birthed a child. So, to say that my body was ready to handle a 4.7 mile run would be a lie. But it did...by some miracle and I have to thank my awesome husband for sticking with me the whole time!
3. Parenthood- We have been netflix streaming Parenthood. How have I missed this show??? I love it and every episode nearly brings me to tears at some point. So well written. I really like all the family dynamics going on. Does anyone have any other suggestions for good TV shows we can stream???
4 Kinect- We got an Xbox kinect for c'mas. It was random but we wanted some type of gaming system and the xbox lets us stream netflix right the TV so we just pulled the trigger. So this kinect lets "you be the controller" and when you move the avatar on the screen moves which is really cool. The first time we played it, Taylor was playing and jumping around and Ray promptly jumped onto the couch and launched himself onto Taylor. Best of all the Kinect has a camera that takes pictures while you play and yes, it caught this attack by Ray on camera.
5. Tervis Tumbler travel cup with lid- This is helping me drink more water so it is a good thing. I dislike water so after pregnancy and breastfeeding attempts were over, I stopped drinking it. Like period. It has been bad...really bad. It's not like I drink a bunch of soda in its place, I just don't drink anything. Yes and that has come with the price of dehydration headaches. Told you, bad. So, in an effort to be healthier and to properly hydrate my body for running, I have started drinking water again. Before, I didn't like pouring a glass of water because I don't drink it fast enough and the glass would always end up sweating and ice melting etc. Makes a mess so I just didn't want to deal with it. This tumbler really doesn't sweat and I swear the ice doesn't melt as fast.
Well those are some no-baby related subjects for you all to ponder on. Please let me know what tv series you guys stream or watch.

I hate water too, and like you - I just drink nothing instead. I'm pregnant, and I don't even do a good job drinking it...not even for poor baby's sake - hope he doesn't dry up in there :-) Kidding - I make myself drink at least 1 big glass a day (not enough, but something)! Great job on your running!!! I admire your commitment - 4.7 miles seems like a marathon to me at this point. I'm really impressed with your quick progress. I really like the show New Girl. My sister got me hooked on it, and I think it's funny (I don't know how T would like it...). See you Thursday!
I LOVE Parenthood!! It is basically the only show I watch and I love it. Did you watch the Friday Night Lights series? There were five seasons, and Casey and I watched them this fall. That is another great, great one.
I love Parenthood!!! If y'all like action/suspense type stuff, we also watch Nikita on CW.
John and I both LOVE The Middle and Modern Family. Both come on Wednesday nights!! They are both hysterical!!
okay, parenthood is our favorite!! we also love modern family. we both watched brothers and sisters until the later seasons...matt dropped out. :)
1. I want a K.
2. Wish I wanted to run again.
3. I want a Kinect. Love that Ray was caught on camera!
4. We are obsessed with Parenthood over here! LOVE it!
5. Love my TT with lid too. B/c I too am slacking in the water drinking dept after nursing.
