fun facts friday

December 19, 2014

1. Sorry for the silence yesterday! Wednesday night I went to go get my hair done after the girls went to bed, and I didn’t get home until well past my bedtime. Bed trumped writing. Sleep always wins. ;)

2. Speaking of that hair, I went a little darker. I’m trying to get back to most of my original color (which is really just a dark blonde). I felt like there was too much blonde blonde going on, and the second it starts to grow out, it looks horrible.

2. Since I was gone yesterday, I have a post that was originally going to go up yesterday scheduled for Tuesday - it’s one that’s been a long time coming. Body After Babies.

3. Anyone else so excited for the week ahead? We have about 7 thousand Christmas parties between now and next Saturday, and I’m pumped. I can’t wait to spend time with family and friends - plus, no school for two weeks!

4. Anyone see Ashley’s post yesterday? I loved it. Amen, sister!

5. Many of you commented on my post Wednesday about Fitness Blender. Why had I never heard about it before? Tons of free workouts - I tried this one last night. Wowza!! I felt like I was in my own little group class. It was a lot of fun, and I’m pretty sure I was shaking by the end of it.

6. We’re obsessed with the couch lately – and fighting over books. Or fighting over anything. Any. Thing. ;)

7. Poor B is cutting more and more teeth. She has been miserable. I feel so bad for her. It’s a good thing she is cute and I don’t mind the extra cuddles.

On the other side, Emerson, who was horrible for the first few teeth she cut, has cut three more without us even knowing!

8. I’m still waiting on the first snowfall of the year, and I’m getting a little impatient over here. Bring on the snow, please! Rumor has it, we’ll have our first one on Christmas Eve… but don’t they always say that?

9. I hope everyone enjoys their weekend – I’ll be back Monday!

I found Fitness Blender on Instagram and I have been intrigued by them. Will have to check out their You Tube Channel. Have a great weekend!

I will miss snow this year! (It’s been tough moving down to Florida, but someone has to do it! haha) Nia has her final two-year molar coming in and it’s the slowest thing ever. All I ever feel is that swollen gum thinking, come on tooth! It’s crazy how Emerson is fine with these teeth coming in. She must be all, I got this! now!

I want to see your hair! I’m sure it looks gorgeous. I feel you on the blonde issue though… It’s always a dilemma for me. Do I go darker for practicality sake? Or blonder because I like to be blonder?

We have tonsss of Christmas parties this next week too! (OK, not really tonssss, but a few!) I love them, so I’m stoked.

Enjoy your last day before two weeks off! Yay!

P.S. Thanks for the shoutout on my post! xo

You have two #2′s in your post. You know I couldn’t let that one go untouched. ;)

And how can you post about your hair going darker without a pic, woman?!?!?

Sleep always wins over here too. Always.

I want to see a pic of the hair! I too have darker blonde hair, but I like my hair lighter. Gah. So I am always in this dilemma too.

Have a fun weekend!!
