Photo a Day: Day 15: New Haircut

Josh was amazing and surprised me with a cut, color and brow wax and tint! I was so shocked he had arranged it all and sent me on my way. The salon was a new one on 35th called Coco and Co. My stylist was Kim. It was a great experience. I then went next door to the Beauty Bar and had Lisa do a tint and shaping on my brows. I feel like a new woman!

Photo a Day: Day 14: Homework!!!

Addison LOVES homework. She gets a packet every Friday to complete over the weekend. She is always overly enthusiastic to complete each page. She screams and cheers herself on. So adorable to see this kind of excitement every week...hopefully it will last for a very long time.

Photo a Day: Day 13: On the Throne

My son reads forever on the toilet. He can finish a whole book while sitting on the throne. He is obsessed with reading and for some reason enjoys it best while sitting on the pot. Sometimes he has a ring around his bottom from sitting there so long! Crazy boy!

Photo A Day: Day 12: Never Clothed

Is it just my kids...or do everyone's kids run around with no clothes on for most of the time? My kids strip down to their underwear as soon as they can. It would be a miracle to find them both home and clothed at the same time. It doesn't matter to me, of course. I love seeing their chubby cheeks...both sets!

Photo A Day: Day 11: Wii Fit and Trampoline

The kids have been getting more active since we are encouraging fitness and activity points. We have been logging the time the kids have spent being active at home and are striving for sixty minutes a day: a committment for us all.

Photo a Day: Day 10: Back to School for Addison: Walk for Q

Addison had to go back to school a day earlier than Q and me. I got to take her to school, a very rare occasion for me, and she kissed me goodbye over and over. It was sweet to see her in her school element! The ponytails were also cute! We also started a fitness routine for the rest of us. Q and Josh went on a long walk to Westwood to get some exercise. We are trying to do sixty minutes of activity a day and trying to watch what we eat. The three of us each have a goal and we will try to reach it in fourteen weeks. Happy New Fit Year.

Photo a Day: Day 9: Happy New Year

We spent a quiet new year's eve at home and all were asleep before midnight. We woke with energy today. Josh made a prime rib in the oil-less fryer and it was outstanding. We had his parents and his brother over for dinner. The kids were kids...playing with toys, acting goofy, ignoring the football that my brother-in-law had on the television. The day brings some sadness for me since it signals the ending of vacation...but we will have a great new year. Hello 2012!
