Week 2 of Bikini Body Mommy Challenge!





So here's to completing week 2 on the BBM challenge! It wasn't a bad week but it wasn't a great week either. I would call it a just OK week.


This week I struggled with some of the same problems as last week. Overeating and cravings. I only struggled on the days that I wasn't using the Slim & Sassy essential oil which proves to me it works! 

I struggled with my natural night owl quiet time my body craves which made my morning workouts nearly impossible to accomplish. No early workouts meant less energy to get things accomplished during the day and meant we were always running late. This was bugging me because I was really enjoying getting things done and not being the mom that is always behind.

But enough of why it was a bad week. Let's focus on the good!

I completed 4 out of 6 workouts! I completed some with sick kids. I was able to be there for my boys as they struggled with coming down with a cold. I drank several shakes last week to keep up my fruit and veggie intake.And the best part I've lost .8 pounds since I started this work out 2 weeks ago. And 3.6 pounds from when I found my want to! It might not seem like a big success but when I tell you that my fat flap (we know we have those especially after having kids) is not a flap anymore! I have toned my mid section enough that no it's just fat! Yes I'm excited about that! I'm so close to pulling out some smaller close even though the scale isn't showing it yet and neither are the measurements but the mirror isn't lying! Hopefully I will have awesome before and after pictures to show you by April! This challenge ends 3 days after my 30th birthday and I can't wait to see what the changes will be! It's not to late to join the Bikini Body Mommy Challenge! Just join in where we are or start on day one and just be a little behind the rest of us. If you join be sure to let me know! We can encourage each other!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

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...
