Life is an Adventure...: One Year of Changes
http://dlongcor.blogspot.com/2014/03/one-year-of-changes.html
Wednesday, March 5, 2014. One Year of Changes. It has now been 1 full year of changes. I started this journey in February 2013 and the following is a brief update of the past year through February 2014. This past year I ran my 1st 5K with Kimberly to benefit the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. Kimberly has run this every year since the death of her Grandpa. It was a pretty emotional time for Kimberly and me. We both had a little cry when we wrote Papa's name on the remembrance wall. My medal and bib.

Life is an Adventure...: Wogging
http://dlongcor.blogspot.com/2013/06/wogging.html
Tuesday, June 18, 2013. I've reached a new phase in my fitness/wellness journey. I am now "wogging". Wogging the term I use for my morning walk/jog intervals. Each morning I go for a 2.5 mile walk and had worked up to a fast pace walk. After a few weeks I decided to challenge myself and see if I could jog a little between lamp posts. I'm not going to kid myself, it was a hard thing to do but I worked up a very nice sweat and elevating my heart rate felt very productive. April 27- May 31. My Take on Things.

Thursday, July 18, 2013. Changes come in many forms and this year I have made quite a few. 1 Diet- thanks to My Fitness Pal app I now make healthier choices when eating. By tracking my calories I have learned to eat better plus I've learned when you eat better you feel better. I've also found I'm not doing the unnecessary snacking because my body is satisfied. I hope I have officially passed the hump of making this a lifestyle change. I can't imagine going back to my old ways. Steps: 1,698,342. Heart and...

Granthamania: March 2014

Thursday, March 20, 2014. Chloe at 3 1/2. I haven't shared much about Chloe lately. She has always been such a light in our lives. Every single day she gets funnier, cuter and more brilliant. This post will be a little all-over-the-place, but it goes with Chloe's personality. Her favorite toys are her cars. She enjoys coloring and riding her new bike. New big girl bike! Such a happy girl. She drew a picture of a "ghostbuster and a slutty ghost". Dr Seuss Day at school.she dressed up as Fox in Socks.

Granthamania: Mackenzie - 11 Months
http://www.granthamania.com/2014/05/mackenzie-11-months.html
Sunday, May 11, 2014. Mackenzie - 11 Months. It's May 11, 2014 (Mother's Day) and you are 11 months old today. Your personality grows with every milestone you hit. You really came out of your shell when you started crawling and pulling up on things. You have stood up a few times without hands. I think you are a few months away from walking. Chloe showed you how to play the piano. We took you to the church nursery a few weeks ago and you were hyperventilating from being so upset. You really are quite ...

Friday, July 26, 2013. Having a new baby is exciting and nothing can top that, but we do have news that comes awfully close. But first, I have iPhone picture to share. We baked in honor of our big surprise. Chocolate Chip Cookies from scratch. She loves it. If only I could convince her to stop playing on the steps of the pool while the teachers are talking. Three year olds just don't have the same priorities as adults. She loves making silly faces for the camera. Kenzie and I waiting on Chloe. I can't be...

Friday, October 11, 2013. Mackenzie - 4 Months. It's October 11, 2013 and you are 4 months old today! 4 months seems too old. In some ways, I'm glad you're getting older because you can play and interact with us more. But, I want you to stay little and squishy and cuddly. Pretty soon, you'll be on the move and I won't be able to hold you like I do now. Pumpkin patch - horse ride. We've gotten a few giggles from you, but no big belly laughs yet. Chloe asked to hold you. Morning walk.looking up at mom.

Wednesday, February 12, 2014. Mackenzie - 8 Months. Today is February 11, 2014 and you are 8 months old today! It's been a rough month for you little girl. You have kept an ear infection through one round of antibiotics and are currently on a second round. You were sick most most of your entire 7th month. You babble a lot now. Lots of da-da-da and ba-ba-ba. We are trying to get you to clap and wave. Your favorite toy is a squeaky monkey teether. Chloe dressed MJ up in her best. You can still fit into 9 m...

Granthamania: August 2013
http://www.granthamania.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 11, 2013. Mackenzie - 2 Months. It's August 11, 2013 and you are two months old today! You are sleeping 7-9 hours at night. You go to bed around 8pm. and wake up around 5am. You are putting yourself to sleep most nights. You lay in bed quietly and kick until you fall sleep. We have a rough night occasionally. You are smiling now. It takes some work, but you'll do it. You are also cooing more now. I love your little voice and I'm pretty sure we are getting the start of a giggle. I think her...
