As the 4th of July nears, I am getting more anxious and excited; my first 5k in, gulp, 16 years is now 3 days away. The longest distance I have run to date is 2.5 miles. So, Sunday morning will prove to be my biggest test and my biggest challenge to day. I am excited to get out there with other people and run. I do hope to run the entire way, I can do it. I should be a Nike commercial...too bad my shoes are Aisics...*snicker**snicker*
I am on week 7 of the Couch to 5k plan, but I figure it is time to get my "race on". My goal is to finish the race, 3.1 miles in 45 minutes or less.
So far, this running has not helped me lose any weight, but, this month I will be more diligent in my eating habits. That should give me some positive results.
Have a safe and Happy 4th of July all!!!!

Photo Shoot 6-29-2010
On Tuesday I took the girls to get their pictures taken. Both of them were in such good moods on the way there, I was thinking to myself, "oh, this is a great day and time to be getting these pictures!" Boy was I WRONG!!!!
Teagan decided she wanted nothing to do with being in front of the camera....
But, the photographer got this picture of her before the next melt down...so, we decided to get Sloane's pictures and let Teagan get a little more comfortable there. And this is how Sloane's session started:
But, she quickly changed her attitude...
I love this photo of Sloane. It shows how much personality she has.
And in my infinite wisdom, I thought it would be a good time to get a picture of the two of the girls together...and this is what we got:
Yes, folks those are tears...
A little better, but, in the end there were no pictures of the two girls that were decent.
At least Teagan was trying to give Sloane a kiss...
Sweet Sloane's little feet
And her little hands
Oh, it would have been cute to get Teagan's hands too, but we instead got me gripping my daughter's hand.
Ah, but there was a silver lining. Toward the end, Uncle Matt had Teagan in a fairly good mood and there was a large flower for Teagan to play with and we got a couple of good shots of Teagan.

Memo to self: Don't do photos without Daddy.
