Character

Let me preface this post with how much I love Kayla--in my opinion, she is the most interesting, clever and funny person I know...for a 5 year old.
So sometimes after we put the kids to bed, Kayla likes to sneak into her closet and exchange her pajamas for a princess dress (she has about 15 of them). Sleeping princess, get it? So anyways, recently she got a miniature Ariel outfit for her new Tropical Hello Kitty from the build a bear workshop, complete with equally as miniature red wig. Well, this is what I found the other night just hours after bedtime...
Also as of late...my Mom bought her this vintage monkey stuffed animal about 2 weeks ago and ever since it has been her best friend-"Tippy" is his name. Well, I keep finding Tippy all around the house left in lifelike poses such as this one:
It's starting to freak me out--as if Tippy might come to life one night and create all sorts of havoc.

Facelift

So anyone who visits my blog has probably realized that I've been tinkering with my layout quite extensively lately! I'm trying to find something that you and I will actually want to look at... Visit my friend Josie's blog and you'll see what I mean--I LOVE going to her blog, because it is so clean and comfortable, really--a lot like her!:)
I've fallen back on my old standby--Hokusai, whose artwork I heart. But am not satisfied that this is IT for me...keep checkin it out, it'll probably be different the next time you see it...and the next time...and the next time...until I find my blog nirvana.
So, any tips on how to do it better?

10 months of training...

We did it! 26.2 miles!
Favorite shirt quotes:
"This was my sister's idea" printed on the back of 2 girls that were twins.
And "Sisters on the Run".
Any ideas for something clever for next year?
Favorite Cheer Squad:
Husbands dressed in drag as large boobed cheerleaders--made me laugh both times along the race course!

I would have included photos of me actually running the race, but race day photos aren't posted yet--you're missing out, as I'm sure I look stunning all sweaty and serious.
Here are the only pictures I got of the whole weekend--pre-race photos
taken at about 4:45 AM:

So tired...

...and Jenny running late as usual!
