Another day full of blessings

It's amazing how many blessings we receive on a daily basis and we just don't have time to notice. I do my best to thank God every morning for his blessings, but many times I just don't pay attention. so today, I'm going to say thanks for this new day, for my family, my friends, for having the ability of training for this marathon.

I went to the gym last night. 35 min. on the treadmill, 5 minutes on the elliptical (doing the backwards thing). I attempted to run, but was not very successful. first of all, I'm scared I'm going to fall off the treadmill, and I also need to go find one of those handy-dandy sports bras. So that's next on my list.

My twins have decided they don't want me training in the morning. They were up last night one too many times. Are they ever going to sleep thru the night? They have done it a few times, so I know they are capable of doing it. But they refuse to continue. One has an excuse, his teeth; the other has no excuse. LOL I was up 4 times last night, last time was 4:30. I managed to (literally) roll myself out of bed at 6 and get everyone ready for school/daycare.
Mark/Robin, will they ever sleep thru the night at the same time? I need tips/help/anything you got! We tried cereal in the bottle, cereal with a spoon, cereal with a bottle and with the spoon. Nothing. They may sleep one night, then won't sleep thru the night again for a week or so. The circles under my eyes are beginning to rival those of a racoon. LOL

I need to get one of those iPod thingies, because I think it will help me go longer. 40 min is way too long when you are watching Bill O'Reilly on TV at the gym. LOL plus, I rather train outside, and I'll need the music to get me going.
