It Better Be Fun Friday

Because yesterday was not fun Thursday.

Do you have kids that wait until the last minute to tell you they need something for a science project?

Last night, an hour before bed, my daughter said she needed 2 cakes-1 green and 1 red/pink one. The project is to make a 3-D plant cell and animal cell.  She also needed Jell-O, pudding, and frosting.  That's ALL.   So we stayed up a little later than normal to make these fabulous cakes.  I don't know how this is going to turn out, but it seems a little over ambitious for a 6th grader.

 

This little guy has some fruit issues.  If he eats too much, he gets a tummy ache and screams in the night.  The last time I looked at the clock, it was 4:30 am.  I think he will be better tonight, I hope!

 

 

 

Yesterday was a day off from the gym.  We played outside for a few hours in the hot sun.  It was so nice.  Today is cloudy and windy.  I am glad we took advantage of the nice days we've had lately.

 

Today was the first day that I tried to lift heavier.  I worked my back and did a few machines that I don't do very often.  I think I could go even heavier, but I want to see how sore I am this weekend.  I still want to run, which doesn't work if I am overly sore.  Tomorrow will be a  3 mile run/legs day.
