Its the last day and I’m on track to make my million (only 8000 steps left)! There were definitely ups and downs, weekends were harder than I thought to get steps in, being pregnant made me more exhausted in the evenings, and the weather did not always cooperate! All that said, I’m so proud of myself. I have […]
My stash at work – Day 5 of the Million Step Challenge!
Yesterday was the first day I haven’t made my goal of 10,000 steps for the day. I was able to get in my lunch walk like normal, but ran out of time in the evening for to make up for the 2000 steps I was lacking because I decided to watch tv, then the project […]
Day 3 of Million Step Challenge!
And today, in my rush to get out the door to meet my mom for walking, I forgot my pedometer!!! How could I? I feel so awkward without it after wearing it constantly for more than a month (from previous challenge). Luckily I have an Android smartphone and found a pedometer app that seems to […]

She tends to wear lots of white, but that didn’t seem too work appropriate and it was a rainy Friday morning here. Finally found inspiration in […]
Kitchen Renovation: Part 2
So our kitchen is coming along amazingly! When I returned from Wine Club, I came home to find this… We do own a step ladder… Then Saturday my dad agreed to help us with wiring (and Mommy was awesome and kept us fed!). We spent about an half an hour figuring out what all the […]
Kitchen Demo: Part 1
This weekend was wonderful and crazy! I got to be the Matron of Honor in my bff’s wedding and got to see lots of friends! She looked beautiful and of course was calm and collected. So happy for her and her new husband! Another major event this weekend was official beginning of our kitchen demolition […]
Jars & Shelving Completed!
After quite a bit a of time, I’ve finally made the time and completed my jar shelving! I had filled them quite a while ago and had been using them all the time, but I had just been using masking tape to label them! Luckily, Isaac’s friend Nick helped me cut some labels on Chalkboard […]
