T-25

I'm a freak. I did the Jillian Michaels 30 day challenge and I saw some results however not enough. When it comes to weight loss I can be the most impatient person. I want to do a hard core workout eat a pizza and then go put on my "skinny" pants. It makes me so sad that it doesn't work like that.


I was fed up with doing random workouts and not really sweating. I need to sweat like I'm being walked to the electrical chair to feel like I did something. Jillian did this for the first few weeks but then blah. I didn't really have a schedule to follow and I got bored doing the same workout everyday. So I started to do some research.


I became obsessed with finding the perfect workout that would work with my life.

I tried the gym before work that went over like a fart in church. So then I decided I needed to do something. Even though I have tried I cannot even get to the gym after work.

One morning when I was eating my 3rd bowl of cereal an infomercial came on. I watched it. I fell in love and I ordered it the next day.

I then went on amazon and ordered protein powder and shaker bottles. I was ready to dive into this craziness called T-25.

Michael wanted to do it with me so we have now for a full week. I love it. I think it is the perfect amount of time but man is it intense.

I look like a crazy person when I'm done because I can't catch my breath and I'm dripping sweat like they just told me they are taking my birthday away. It is 5 days a week with one day being a double day. There is no way in hell that I can do a double day so we chose to do 6 days a week with one day being a stretch day.

I'm making the program work for our life. Most days we do it as soon as we are both home and then we eat after. I'm in love with every workout except the lower body which my saddle bags could use so I suck it up and do it. Grayson plays in his pack and play while we work out and I shit you not that kid laughs at us. He stands up and laughs when we are jumping around and crying at the same time.

I plan to do stats every other week. The first phase is 5 weeks and then the second phase is 5 weeks. You can purchase a third phase but I figured I will cross that bridge when it comes or I will drown myself in my own sweat we will see.

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
