With the New Year many people look back and set goals for what they want to change for the year in front of them. I'm not against this but many people set goals and never accomplish them...myself included. Instead of focusing on what wasn't good last year I want to look forward and find ways to make my life and my family's life better. So here are a few goals I have set for myself!
1.) Read more. Not only books for myself but I want to read more to my boys. I want to encourage a life long love for books!
2.) Eating healthy and adding in exercise. I say this every year but there are some differences this year. Hubby is on board to change things around the house in support. Last year when I started Bikini Body Mommy I saw great changes in my body but life happened and I didn't finish and reverted back to old habits. I plan to read the Trim Healthy Mama book and start eating the way our bodies were made to eat. So many people have had success with it I figure it can't be too hard to make changes.
3.) I also want to find more ways that I can help save money or make money for our household. I already do a lot which I'll share along the way but I want to do more if possible.
4.) Actually use my blog! Setting up new blog that I will actually use is a goal. After blogging for 3 years I have yet to be consistent so I'm hoping that this year will be different!
What are your goals this new year?

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...
