Day 180 (Sunday 5/3)

<p>First of all…<strong>HAPPY BIRTHDAY</strong> to my favorite little furry friend…<strong>ABBY</strong>!!!! She turned <strong>2</strong> today!!! :D</p> <p>DH and I overslept a tad, but still made it to church and ran a few errands afterwards with the in-laws.  AKA…needed to get our little girl a <strong>birthday gift</strong>!!!  I wanted to make her a little cupcake…but I figured if I did that I would end up eating some too and I ate enough points yesterday!</p> <p align="center">She ended up getting a new toy…one hopefully that she won’t rip to shreds!! She may be cute…but boy does she sure shred any sort of toy you give her!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBpJENtxhpAlqpBYOivExCAa0Hp88goSgUbXSQjXSwbjJ0NAE17Xde51uagafBfT9AlzSQl4IcBU3HUrquj4QpRvvE9AbL4ITJdSqo9yj2rKX_7NRlE4FKi7tDQuSkMZZksbiG35aXbpbB/s1600-h/DSC02433%5B6%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02433" border="0" height="192" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiejn3A-v46DZ0pHuXlszqWhZTaJeoJte_kVgX4McFFyXmG8ThzAy3pKMbVdEPWbssHgK3aQj8nB7tUY370iP08kt3vhP9a3nYahL55tPk2_fan4ZQEWcAiQ1_q0H-M9XPbocMjiYa1BZ2o/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="DSC02433" width="254"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPIbXjhU6rpqJ9Yx39O5fY4ZotUbHySgnj9jxOslZldcAN5PAhVmddtHdj2KluSokBhr9ZlDgo0WLSoPg8Mx9JPtAF0VgAE66zH0VUiGDmEOgmZE2vtw9kpgkLgu1yyjTIcggGdUP1TTb9/s1600-h/DSC02432%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02432" border="0" height="155" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7XNWJvdRUWlP_EDWSHN15LvShrGbohUJZ6yqu9ootTjgAsXLEsmkihVni9rukl2Vs3T2VGeE_PI38KcRtAihoQlmV_MJvEGUuui-FIOA3uhtT6ZrQuezD4vheSo4kXcLOK_aMVm0ZLL5z/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="DSC02432" width="203"></a></p> <p>We kept lunch simple & light, Subway!

I think Kelly is SUPER!! :D Seriously if you haven’t seen her blog CHECK IT OUT…her posts are ALWAYS great!!! I was truely touched by the comments she made in the post…crazy to think that I can inspire someone…but Kelly I’m glad I did and that you joined the blog world!! <img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEig3nJQesxR59sCKU0WkpB_0WhvNiWQV04AdISi4YSSuXJARj3KMedlpiM6oLSFzgP0dvxPAHE2hDAcja_R_jVIFwRDJmkSI4rhj1imkrYZ0cX3xU5Gr3VU974_Z6cvSGmSGBx__nEP1qVO/s400/super+blog.jpg"></p> <p>And now the rules of the award: </p> <p>Tape it up on your blog somewhere. </p> <p>Pass it along to 5 fellow super bloggers, and comment on their blog to let them know how lucky they are today! </p> <p>When you present your Super Blogger awards, link back to the super blogger who gave it to you</p> <p>Like Kelly said how in the world can I pick only 5 blogs? Have you seen my blog roll?! LOL So I think I am just going to leave it open…obviously if you’re on my blog roll I think your blog is <strong>SUPER</strong>!!! And if you’re not on my blog roll, let me know ‘cause I probably just haven’t read your blog to find out that it is SUPER!!! :D Thanks again Kelly for the award!!!</p> <p>And the next one is from Becca over at “<a href="http://becomingahotmama.wordpress.com/">Simply Fit</a>”. She is a new “blog friend” and enjoy her posts (her son is SUPER cute!!) and always leaves the sweetest comments!! :) Thanks Becca!!</p> <p>As a recipient of this award, I am to share why I love blogging: </p> <p>I originally started a family blog back in 2007 and last November started my weight loss blog when I joined WW. I scoured the net for about a WHOLE day straight reading blogs (many that I follow today!) and was completely inspired. I LOVE the blogging community and have “met” so many wonderful people that inspire me on a daily basis. My weight loss journey would not be the same without all of you!! So for that, I have to thank you from the bottom of my heart…you guys are GREAT!!! Oh and I LOVE your comments…keep ‘em coming!!</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsfysss3GN7Z5nLSJvkg0LKHJ9lOpejPCDalhEddXtp6XtRqlfWVogIOsrBVBro0sBKxebYRN_358kxblSIUP4LCHM5bhFKrsTj0XWu-_Z_9k74roF9FW77vHI3hSvb9Udr3c-XXMMHJaF/s1600-h/DSC02451%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02451" border="0" height="301" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWntKqDUmttK3_a1H2zgJixUM-MnBESX8TTG88N2757mgCd_7T_5HLorUEk3IEySEazFhnLXTKr30IIhtEYib-baGoWE7C5Dg57KMSjZEule7u0759FfrWYKLUt60qDGUv8pgZ844uVVGe/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="DSC02451" width="400"></a></p> <p>After relaxing for a while this afternoon I made a smoothie…it’s official, I’m hooked! Today my <strong>smoothie</strong> consisted of <strong>strawberries</strong>, <strong>key lime pie yogurt</strong>, <strong>1/2 c almond breeze</strong>, and <strong>ice</strong> for a total of <strong>3</strong> <strong>points</strong>. I thought for sure DH would like this one so I put it in two glasses…but nope he made an “eewww face” and gave it back to me…so I had a two fisted smoothie! It was great! :) Someday I’ll make one he likes!!</p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgon9pG4a4P12t84vMwyrUpNh7TSpFIOrqeTDbGqDZzXiEIdOQSPCongguwnly0USZBMgvLEPgAMs_VLZKxuunItlawMQYxMxHdY6VcHh58njTmN7nG3nxn-mFGUHhaYFVgBWquAnlDTcxP/s1600-h/DSC02453%5B4%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02453" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjQPMsKgZtUfdSTq-OkWW8MZ4szH1hDZnHBZJyzU6RInx2fg795VdWd5Bpv2esU8yHmHbjAKLa_oc9HJIMGyyct2g1nIi5rWrSijjRM0J_cr36WK7TAMANGJlhbzFiWVWc_6iWVxyYb72e/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="DSC02453" width="429"></a></p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="800"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="400" align="center">It was starting to get a little late and I hadn’t worked-out yet and before I knew it DH said “Hey we need to get our run in today!”. I was so excited when he said it. So we decided to do intervals today and took a different route. We had a slight detour…DH’s Great Aunt & Uncle lived on this route and were outside and we stopped and chatted with them for a while. They are such sweet people. DH’s Uncle even gave me a pair of slippers that he made himself!! He makes baby ones too that are <strong>SO</strong> cute…can’t wait to get a pair of those!! ;) (Don’t get any ideas…I just love everything baby!!!) We ended up having about a <strong>30 minute total run</strong> and I did <strong>10 minutes</strong> of <strong>lunges</strong> and <strong>abs</strong> when we got home. I was wiped by the time I got done!</td> <td width="400" align="center"> </td></tr></tbody></table> <p>Supper tonight was quick, easy, and delicious! I had an orange, 1/2c cottage cheese, sliced cucumber, carrots, and lite ranch for 4 points. I didn’t eat the pickles…they had a funny taste.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0ghKeH7BckQS9lKd8FF_98_700r9HUeDYuu7h_qjyIQOwhoKDgqQEDuQD3D5DzTibHWOVu0G2GK8mkW8XjT4F_v71wgB3VAiZdpYevgJAqiklpNW7RPyJKdp2QYyNjWo-ZtElVbXSnj9r/s1600-h/DSC02452%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02452" border="0" height="301" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUB5cAYfzTfFL-8kuFG24VLuzQnan_EM-moP70KbixcMcNZmpwtJNDZ6JGRRSL2guYhw27un_8i1UgFTTEX11XTdnWi3yQURF9WJFeQHsy0cdlGofvL-3MsV_0ej20JlKXHMzDshf0HtqH/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="DSC02452" width="400"></a></p> <p>I hope everyone had a great weekend, overall mine was great…nothing too exciting, but still great!
