Walking and Running

By -
Well my little Finn is walking. He got up the nerve this weekend and he's been doing a great job. I keep trying to catch him on video, but something about my turning on my camera makes him immediately sit down... Oh well... hehe

I'm back on week 3 of the C25K, because my back was hurting something awful last week, and I didn't want to mess anything up by running. I think I've done this week at 6mph 3 times now... I seem to be stuck on it! Oh well, eventually I will finish the C25K 6MPH... eventually... LOL

I'm also GOING to do strength training this week. I have such a hard time making myself do it! I dunno what my problem with strength training is. Oh well, I'm gonna get the heck over it!

I'm down a total of 35 lbs now. Yay me! I'm two pounds from my first mini-goal. It's the weight I was when I got prego with Nicky.

I want to find some fun plug ins for my blog. I've seen a bunch of cool ones out there. Does anyone have any that they just love?

Edit: I caught him!

First of all that is SO AWESOME that Finn is walking! How funny that he sits everytime you go for the camera.

Secondly, WOHOO on the 35 lbs! That is fantastic news! Keep it up Lesley!

I have found lots of widgets at www.widgebox.com. I have also found some really cute stuff at www.thecutestblogontheblock.com. The weight loss trackers are from www.tickerfactory.com and www.blogger.com has some basic ones - I am fairly technical (insert slighty geeky) so if you need some help let me know and I can walk you through it.

Thanks for your comments and I look forward to watching your continued success!

Where did you get the dancing/walking stunt double who looks so much like the Finn I JUST finished making that baby blanket for? He's a dead ringer for what the real Finn will look like when he is old enough to walk.

BTW, why aren't you in my Mafia on Facebook??????

13 of my Favorite Quotes from Fiona O'Sithein I'm too darn sleepy to be creative tonight so I'm drawing on my ready-made list. Not to be confused with the one I did about the first lines of the chapters in Fiona. Those weren't nearly my favorites. Is it narcissistic to have favorite quotes that you wrote yourself? When I'm giggling my head off at something I wrote, my husband always looks at me kinda funny. Oh, well if it is, then here is me reveling in narcissism. :-D May you enjoy them as much as I do. 1. Fiona: “What? You think just because I don’t have any magic like my brother or super strength like you people that I’m useless?” 2. Bonnie: “He’s not a heretic, is he?” Fiona: “Isn’t everyone these days?” 3. Fiona: “No one wants to be the one to deflower the king’s daughter.” 4. Fiona: “Yes, Beltran, you’re a vampire. How could anyone forget it when you’re reminding them of it ten times a day? You are the only vampire I know who seems to obsess ab...

Thirteen Things that take My Breath Away 1. This little Guy... Need I say More? 2. Eden Falls at the Lost Valley This picture doesn't even remotely do it justice. The first time I saw Eden Falls was in the middle of the summer after a big rain storm so there was water absolutely gushing from it! It made getting into the cave at the top somewhat more difficult than usual, but it was absolutely beautiful. I had never seen anywhere like it in my life. I thought places like that only existed in wall calenders! 3. The Ocean The vastness of it. The sound of the waves. The smell of it. That humid, cool wind that blows off it. The way it moves. Pretty much everything about it! *Lesley desperately needs a trip to the beach* 4. The Ozark Mountains My home! The very first time I came here I just knew this was where I wanted to be. I grew up on the delta with nothing but rice fields and flat land as far as the eye can see. There is a place on the drive up the mountain where you come around a c...

Well, I had been planning on putting up 13 pictures from my vacation, but my computer crashed yesterday and has to go to the doctor. I hope they can fix it, because I haven't backed up those 450 pictures I took. :-( I did upload all the really cute ones of Nicky to snapfish though, so at least there is that. This brings me to the question I have for y'all...Does anyone have a good gremlin banishing ritual they would like to share with me??? Just this week, my fridge, my car and my computer have all stopped working. The car was just a battery problem, and it has been replaced. I still don't know what is wrong with the computer or the fridge yet though. Without pictures but still in honor of my vacation... 13 Things I Did in Denmark Fed the ducks, swans, and geese at Damhus Lake. Nicky loved this! He was absolutely entranced by the birds. His favorite part (and keep in mind, he is a boy) was throwing the bread so that it landed on the swans back and then laughing hyst...
