Nothing Like a Game of Monopoly With Boys …

Published on August 2, 2012 by in Children

My middle child loves to play board games, his favorite? Monopoly and so one day he really wanted to play. I set the timer for thirty minutes knowing that is about how long my three year old son would last for this type of game. Got the board all set up …

In between the jumping around and rambling boys. The three year old moving my game board piece more than it should be, we were able to play Monopoly in a multi-tasking sort of way …

Who says hyper boys can’t play a good ole game of Monopoly? Not I, anything is possible when you have one patient adult who enjoys multi-tasking and standing up to play Monopoly.

Pardon me While I Sleep

Published on July 28, 2012 by in Random

After a long day of having six kids in the house my sweet Jenny the Pug felt the need to take a long awaited nap.

Jenny The Pug Pardon me While I Sleep

Which was good that she decided to take a nap because she was starting to get really grumpy, I have never seen this dog so grumpy before. Although I could feel her pain for I am exhausted too, I wasn’t being all snappy at people.

May you all rest well and have sweet dreams this evening! The weekend is half way over!

July 18th Updated Fitness Pics Using EA Sports Active

I decided that I will be using EA Sports Active 30 Day Challenge as part of my daily exercise routine for my weight loss goals. I started this out at 222lbs then was down to 214lbs now I am back up to 218lbs after three days of working out. My number on a scale is certainly frustrating but soon I will measure inches because I usually lose inches quicker than pounds on a scale.

Here I am pictured in my work out clothing on July 18th, 2012. I have been enjoying working out and my daughter has started her own custom work out on EA Sports Active.  I am so trying to keep my stress levels down but I am not having an easy time with that, stress makes my belly fat bloat right out and in turn makes it difficult to appear as if I am truly losing inches.

July 18 pic update weight loss July 18th Updated Fitness Pics Using EA Sports ActiveI have found that if I stand up taller then my breasts do not make my body look “as big” but with H cup chest, it’s difficult to hide those babies. I am starting to have back problems and a slouch due to the extra weight from my chest and if I had health insurance I would so be looking into the idea of a breast reduction just to ease the pain on my poor back. For now, all I can do is attempt to lose weight and inches, never does weight come off of my chest though – usually my face and belly lose the most fat appearance overall.

So I am still moving forward, I took the weekend as my “rest days” to allow my muscles to recoup from three days of intense work out, but Monday I will be back on the EA Sports Active and doing the high intensity workouts instead of the medium intensity workouts! I know I can do this and if I can do this, you can too! Let’s keep each other motivated!
