Media Monday's

I'm linking up with Women Living Well with her Media Monday's. I know it's Tuesday but I just read her post from yesterday as well as one from Raising Mighty Arrows who is also linking up.


I don't know about most of you fellow bloggers but for me the computer and TV can be a great way to escape and most days for much longer that I ever plan on. Then there is also the mighty Blackberry that lets me know every email, facebook, twitter, text message that I get and I can get lost in that not to mention the endless apps and games that are available.


For the next 8 weeks I'm going to long my  hours that I'm on the computer. I'm going to first see how many hours I spend on it and then I'm going to put limits and restrictions on it. Having a business that is online can often get me distracted and even give me an excuse to be online. I have to keep working on things if I'm going to sell it to anyone else. They need to see what I'm doing but I need to change that to making sure it is healthy for myself and family.


So today I have been on here way to much. I'm going to finish this and then I'm turning my phone on silent (not off just in case the hubs needs to get a hold of me) and I'm going to go read the Bible and have my quiet time with the Lord while Rex is sleeping. Then I think we will head outside to the park after he is up so we can get some of that great Vitamin D and social interactions that require actually talking not just typing!


If you are interested in doing Media Monday's head over to Women Living Well and grab the button and link up and take the channel to look and see if media is affecting you family or your quiet time with God.

The ABC's of Our Family

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...

Baby Bumpdate: Week 35

35 Weeks! That means only 5 left!!!! Holy cow!!! I think I'm starting to freak out just a little!!! How far along? 35 Weeks! Yea! How big is baby?  He's about 18 inches and just over 5 pounds. Weight gain? I gained a pound last week. Maternity Clothes?  Of course. I'm living in tanks right now because of the heat. Just wish I had more shorts to wear. Stretch Marks?  Nothing new. Just the ones from before and Monkey. Sleep? With this cold I'm not sleeping much. I'm getting a little better and able to sleep about 4 to 6 hours at night and then at nap time I'm able to get 1 or 2 more hours of sleep. However, I'm still exhausted especially because of the heat. It just drains all my energy. Even when I'm sitting in the shade under a fan. Of course it's only June so I'm not sure how this heat thing will effect me in July :/ Best Moment this Week?  Monkey kissing my belly before he went down for a nap. It was so cute. He ...
