Friday 5 – a whirlwind
Linking up for Friday 5 again. Five thoughts. Five photos. All from this week.
1. It’s been a whirlwind week. I feel like I could sleep for days, but then I’d miss out on all the stuff. I’ve been so extremely busy at work and at home. The husband comes home tonight, so hopefully I can get 5 minutes of downtime. Maybe.
2. Do you watch Grey’s Anatomy? The show was lagging for me for a while, and then before Christmas, they caught me again. After last Thursday’s episode, I couldn’t WAIT for this Thursday. And the show didn’t disappoint this week. I hope they can keep it up. (I know. I’ve been busy, but I managed to fit in almost an hour of television, while multitasking.)
3. I just purchased Jillian Michaels’ one-week shred workout dvd. I’m anxious to try it. Not sure if I’ll start it this weekend or hold off one more week, but something’s got to give and I’m excited to try a new workout.
4. Spring break. I love that I even get part of next week off. We had ice overnight and we’re looking at highs in the upper 60s on Monday and Tuesday. This winter can go away anytime now. I’m excited for some consistent spring weather!
5. I owe you (myself) a 30-month update on the toddler. He’s doing so much! My dad asked me yesterday, “what new words is Lucas saying?” I had to tell him that Lucas doesn’t just say random words – he’s speaking complete sentences. And the kid is starting to sound out words and READ. I’m just blown away by him every day.
(I work at Mars Hill University. We had a potluck lunch – I brought cookies.)
“Chloe, wake up!”
I would give anything for 60’s so I could bust out my short sleeves & flip flops!! We are still in the 20’s here in MA.
I hope Spring is here to stay, though my allergies are kicking up again =/ I can’t wait until we know for sure winter is OVER.
I have actually NEVER watched Greyās Anatomy (I know, people can’t believe it!) I’m a bit addicted to Nashville. I love the cookies you brought to the potluck, when I try something like that they look like a picture with the caption “Pinterest FAIL” lol.
I am so looking forward to some warmer weather. I have one Jillian Michaels workout DVD and it’s really awesome. It’s the 30 Day Shred one.
I’ve never watched Grey’s, but I hear it’s great!! I’ve started (but sadly, never finished) Jilian Michael’s 30 day shred. it’s rough, but worth it! good luck!
I love Jillian Michael’s workouts. They are tough but definitely work!!! Can’t wait to hear what you think.
Peeking from the bathtub is the best. I also LOVE to go to IKEA. I’m overdue for a visit.
Those cookies turned out super cute! I really love Grey’s right now. I had started to feel like maybe I needed to stop watching but I have absolutely loved how they had the April love story play out.
Hope you enjoy the workouts. I am a Beachbody Coach and I run monthly challenge groups via Facebook for all our workout programs. Feel free to look me up and friend request me.
I can relate to the whirlwind feeling. Your son is precious.
I hope you got your 5 minutes of down time. I never watched Grey’s but next week I get to go on set and meet some of the cast. You’ll have to watch for my blog post about it. Have a great weekend.
I have never watched Grey’s Anatomy.. I wonder if I could catch up on Netflix. So J Michaels has a one week shred?!?!? I have her 30 day Shred and I not gotten past level 1, it is tough.
love the cookies!! perfect for a pot lunch. and i’m totally stealing that idea
I bet our boys are the same age. My two year old is going crazy with his words. I can’t believe the things he says!
Gorgeous flowers and I love Grey’s! Did you see Burke is coming back?!
Your cookies are so cute! They recently started a Jillian Michael’s class at our gym and I’m looking forward to trying it!
I love Grey’s and I was so happy about the wedding!!! CAn’t wait to see where they go with the “new rule”
I used to LIVE for Grey’s Anatomy! I go through phases with it too though, haha.
It’s still been pretty cold here. I can’t wait for warmer days. My feet are longing for flip flops!
Oh love Ikea, we have one about 35 minutes away so I don’t get there nearly enough. So fun that Lucas is learning to read! That is awesome. Glad the weather will be nice for your spring break. Thank you so much for linking up
I love the Jillian Michael’s workout DVD’s. I have a few of them and they have always encouraged me to get fit. They are definitely a workout but it will be worth it in the end!
One week shred? If you try it, post your results! I’m curious to see what results you could actually see in just a week.
I’m loving the cookies. My toddler still doesn’t speak complete sentences so I’m super jealous but hoping that she does very soon. Here’s to a great weekend!
I like the Friday 5. I may have to share that with my group. And I am excited for some warm weather next week as well. Thanks!!
I hope the workout DVD is awesome. I haven’t tried anything by her, but I do know her exercise rep. is beyond solid, so it should be a good one!
I am wearing capris and flip flops today and am so thankful for it. I’m done with winter. Your cookies were too cute!
I LOVE grey’s anatomy. I am so excited for this season other than the fact it’s Cristina Oh’s last season š
Those tulips are beautiful!! I’d love to try the Jillian Michaelsā one-week shred workout dvd; can’t wait to hear your thoughts on it so I know if I should buy it or not. š Enjoy the beautiful Spring Break weather!
Jillian Michaels is awesome! You will have a great experience with her DVD. I know what it’s like to not have any time (my husband isn’t home much) but you are able to accomplish more than you give yourself credit for š
It’s so exciting when toddlers are learning to read, isn’t it? My daughter is at the same pace your son is and it’s just thrilling. lol This is my first if you can’t tell! š
I love Grey’s Anatomy, too. I feel like I’m one of the last holdouts (of my friends) to keep watching, so it’s nice to know I’m not alone. Ha! Good luck with the Jillian Michael’s Shred workout. I’ve heard so many good things about it!
I am so behind on Grey’s Anatomy! I actually own the first four seasons, but I think I dropped off around season 5. Must find the time to get caught up.
We’re still in the throes of winter so not free sun for now. You did quite the whirlwind trip. Loved it.
I love those gorgeous tulips! I’ve done a few of Jillian Michaels DVD and they are a killer! So glad the children are starting to learn how to read!
I LOVE Grey’s Anatomy and I agree for awhile it was lagging. Bailey was grating a nerve soooo bad. The past couple of weeks have been AWESOME though. I was laughing hysterically at Richard’s reaction to finding the two couples in the closet š
