Feeling more like me.

So today I woke up on the right side of the bed, and I feel more like me than I have in a while. It’s nice to feel like me for a change. I went to bed planning my family breakfast, how to get my stuff ready for my in-laws visit today and when I would get to run!

Breakfast was a feast of waffles, with fruit, whipped cream and syrup for toppings. Lillian ate half a waffle! I enjoyed the fruit on top of mine and Steve loved the new recipe too. I used one with butter milk and corn starch and they were super crispy! We also had tea and coffee. Everything was nice and Katrina slept the whole meal so we really enjoyed some family time with Lillian during the meal.

One very happy Baby K.

My father and grandmother-in-law are coming for lunch today. To make things easy on us, we decided to BBQ burgers, and hotdogs and make a salad and some french fries. I figure that is something everyone (including Lillian) would enjoy so we shouldn’t have a problem feeding everyone. I also make a half-sized Mocha pound cake for dessert. I also made a large cake for my neighbors. They gave us two large boxes of old toys for Lillian, one of my little ponies and one of kitchen supply toys. So the food will taste good and be easy to prepare once I’ve finished my morning coffee.

Finally I plan to do a long, outside run today. It’s going to be a colder day today with a high of 20 and cloudy. In my humble opinion PERFECT for running outside. So I am very excited to run outside. My garmin and ipod are both charged, and I told Steve if he needs a break I can take a baby on the run with me, though it would be nice to have a break and not push someone but I want to give him some time to do his own thing too. I’ll let you know if I end up taking one. I could always do my 5.2km route twice and take a kid on the first part of the run and do the second round myself. That way everyone would win. We’ll see though.

Hope everyone has a fabulous Monday!
