Coffee Chat With Me

If we were having coffee today!

I would tell you I can't believe it is Friday?!

Last Sunday we went to the Giants game and it was a blast. We will be returning in October for a wedding! I love weddings, don't you.

I would also share with you that my heart is a little heavy, but this week also lifted a burden off of my heart. 

I mentioned in another post that I have a hard time with making girlfriends. Well I will just say that what was going on was finally resolved. 

I am very glad that it got resolved because I am one who will talk the topic to death if it doesn't.

Also, this week brought on a shot for Lilly, which was not fun. She definitely wasn't herself. My husband said that this is how he reacted to shots, I wish it would just pass over her. I know it will, but boy does my heart ache. She is sleeping right now and we are going on a walk this morning, so I hope not to wake her too soon.

How did your week go? Next Saturday, the 22nd is Tough Mudder for the hubby. I'm hoping to get some great pics, but I was forewarned it is going to be a mess of mud.

Much love!!!

Coffee Date

This has been such a quick week! Its always nice with Hubby gets a day off and can spend dome time at home. We finished our coffee bar. I can't wait to get more Nespresso shots. 

And of course: 

Miss Lilly turned 4 months on Wednesday

And yesterday she popped a tooth through!

She is in the running (of 300,000 others) for the Gerber campaign on Facebook. So if you feel so inclined please vote:)

I've had a tough week realizing once again that I can't please everyone. I've mentioned before on this blog of mine about the wonderful women that I have met through meetup.com. Well just when you think "Okay, I'm 25(or whatever) I'm ready to meet quality people," someone goes and creates drama. I seriously think that I have a virus that prevent women from being my friend. 

Okay a bit of a pity party here.

Then I lost two followers. 

Does that really matter?

No, but it adds to my insecurities that I'm doing something wrong. 

And maybe I am, but I have to remember that I'm not everyone's cup of tea.

Its hard for me to let go of the fact that I can't be everyone's friend. 

In Sunday school they taught you that you have to be everyone's friend.

I didn't learn until out of college that you don't.

Some people are toxic.

Well I'm venting because deep down it hurts when you try to be kind and it isn't enough for someone.

I have to remember that I don't want to be in those relationships because they can be toxic and full of drama.

I am grateful though. 

I have met quality people. I like that when Lilly grows up, she will have some friends of her own.

Which also scares me too. Its the only thing I cried about while pregnant: that she would be treated unkindly by female peers. 

Why are we so ruthless? So unkind?

Hey we all make mistakes. I'm prone to shouting during a frustrating talk (I've worked very hard to not have a temper). But I ALWAYS make sure to say sorry if I'm in the wrong.

Which every fight I believe you can apologize for something.

Why can't we admit we are wrong?

Well that is what I worked on this week. I'll take it with me while doing the She Reads Truth bible study.

And any new reader out there, don't feel obligated to follow, but do feel obligated to click on the picture of Lilly and vote :)

Coffee Talk

Howdy, ya'll...

It has been a busy week here at Hurley Love. Still trying to get our home into place. I've been trying to wake up a bit earlir to get back into blogging. I feel like August came and went and I regret not being more involved in the blogospere. Please forgive me..Thanks :)

I was doing #BeachWeek with Tone it Up, but Wednesday's workout kinda destroyed me. I was supposed to do stairs, but I did step ups (like stepping onto a ledge then back down). Well I did it for 4 mins and 5 intervals. That day I also walked/ran 9 miles!! Ooopsie!!

Here is the workout that I adjusted:

I also have lacked big time on responding on She Reads Truth!! I gotta get on that. I have loved and enjoyed reading Proverbs so much!!

However I have gotten to make Little Miss laugh a lot this week!! Always brings a smile to my face!

Werll I'm hoping to get out and do a mile jog today! Check my twitter to see if I did :)

Have a great Labor day weekend!!

Coffee Date

Hello Readers...

Lets enjoy a little french press together...decaf of course.

This has been quite a week. 

I had a lovely time with friends and have enjoyed building friendships.

I have become obsessed with Mad Men.

I learned how to carry Lilly in the Moby Wrap.

I am continuing to get stronger with running and fitness.

I'm gonna be starting a fitness blog hop..pop by on Saturday!!

I have really been enjoying motherhood. It is such a blessing and I have been blessed by our baby girl. The dance of parenthood has been magical. i fall more and more in love with Steven each moment as we learn how to waltz through life together. He is such a great leader. Being a parent is more than I expected. I laugh about the funny things I now talk about (diapers, labor, feeding and all the in between). I love the mom club...you know how all of a sudden being a mom people gravitate toward you wanting to share advice or ask questions. i LOVE reading birth stories...well I like hearing them in person more, but its like reliving my birth story. 

Anyway...hope you enjoyed your cup...let me refill it.....

See you next week!!

Coffee Date

I missed it last week. And that was sad. I love coffee dates. Best part of my week. Okay because I still can't figure out my mike on this comp. I'm gonna time myself for 30 seconds and tell you about me.

Ready....

Go....

It's 5 am and I am awake.

I like being up this early because I can get a few things done.

I make my husbands coffee.....

That was 30 seconds.

Let's just start again...no timer

It's 5 am and I am awake.

I'm looking at my sleeping babe and her daddy!

Precious moments

I made my husband's coffee so he is set for work.

Being up this early is beautiful.

I love the peace and serenity.

Lilly was born in the morning and it is still a magical time to me.

Hubby's lunch is packed.

Snacks are packed for today's walk with friends.

I'm loving my new Meetup group. They are sweet sweet women.

I have been craving some female friendships that aren't shallow. 

Why is it that women have such a hard time with each other.

It's jealousy! and competititon!

I know I've felt less than before. I've played the competitive role before.

But it really  got me no where except further from the real me.

Why do we play this silly games?

It's sad to look back at so many relationships that have suffered over the years due to competition or jealousy.

My heart breaks. 

I've spent moments crying over friends that I've lost or have drifted away. 

Its sad.

Sad to see my little Lilly and know she will have to go through that one day.

Sad to know that she will never meet some of those girls I was friends with.

Well...

On a lighter note because I  can't end this way...you'll never go on a date with me again!?!

I'm excited for this weekend. We still have a lot to do on the house, but it will be a lot less. It will be great for hubs to get a bit of a rest.

I'm so excited to try out this church nearby.

I don't want to get any hopes up...

but I am very excited.

Thanks for letting me spill my heart....in more than 30 seconds :)

See you next week?

Coffee Talk

Okay I really wanted to do a vlog, but my computer speaker is not working so I will type this for you.

WELCOME TO COFFEE WITH HANNAH!

We are out at a small coffee shop (I really hate chains, but Peet's is still pretty good). I will order a decaf nonfat latte.

We will sit down and I will tell you that today I fit into my white capris which I wore befoer I was pregnant. Hooray! I'm so excited. 

You laugh at my elated state. 

Then you ask about the decaf....

Okay so there are two reasons why I drink decaf. One I still breadtfeeding and two breastcaner runs in my family and I have had tumors biopsied before. So caffeine can apparently increase the lumps, so I stick to decaf.

Okay okay TMI!!!

This week was hard. My little miss was sick and is still not 100% her self. But she is a tough cookie and is doing her best. Our poor puppy Gus had to get foxtails removed from him (foot, ear, and well TMI again). We've been working on moving, but it seems like the boxes never empty. I just want this place to be home and by home I mean unloaded and put away. Things hung and decorated. I've been dying for a home of our own. I wish I could snap my fingers and it would be done.

I will ask you how your week is because I tend to talk too much about myself and never ask how others are doing!!

Thanks for popping by. I hope I can get the hubby to fix this (he is so smart, and he does enjoy my blogging :)

If you want to ask some questions that will fuel my next vlog....hopefully!
