Dear Drew,

How did you lose 6 lbs in 2 days? HOW? It is not fair.

Just thought you should know.

M

Oh and BTW I am butt crazy in love with you.

That is all.

maybe...just maybe

We might be getting a bit more flexibility in our limbs...




Yoga X... We hate it, but we love it. (but mostly we hate it)




Drew is the Crane King, he can hold that beast for like a whole minute. Crazed.




Happy weekending yall!

M

time for some accountability.

As May was workout till I'm dripping with sweat month in the Happiness Project I feel like I should share a bit of what the hubsters and I have been up to...

We started P90X... and we're just over 30 days in. Man if I didn't have him for moral support I'd have already quit! It is a BEAST! We snapped a few pics last night to share. And I'm hoping that publicly announcing my intent to finish this whole beast will help me with my motivation levels.

Here's some of the psycho moves we have to do... Check out hubby rockin the pull-ups!

Neither of us has had a huge difference on the scale but I think we both definitely look better. I'll share my before and after so far... but remember, I still have 60 days before it's all done!

Maybe a little more definition... Maybe?

Either way, we are healthier and feeling stronger everyday so I'm happy.

There ya have it, an almost naked me for all to see and judge. I must be crazy. Or just completely shameless. Probably that.

Love to all!

M

PS

Still deciding what the June project will be. I'll keep you posted!

(Drew with his crazed "Bring It!" face)

some things i learned this week...

- I am TOO old to stay up walking all night! (next time I'll just donate double the money and skip staying all night at RELAY) Let' s just say, it kicked MY butt.

- My husband isn't afraid to admit when he's wrong. And he's quick to apologize if need be.

- I don't think I'll ever find a bra I'm happy with.

- Yoga can be bad to the bone; not just for granola heads :0)

- My son is an excellent copy cat... if I could just get him to copy me when I eat my vegetables...

- I have some VERY talented friends.

- I need new clothes. Like for real. (But ofcourse you know I 'm too cheap to buy them)

- 1 in 3 people will develop cancer during their lifetime.

- We eat WAY too much processed/chemically enhanced food. Really. (anyone know any good clean eating websites?)

- My son is the wildest wanderer at church every Sunday. When will someone with a demon kid move in already? (But Miles is so darn cute in his little suits, dashing for the pulpit every chance he gets!)

- More and more I just want to be with Drew and Miles all day everyday. Even if we're only sitting on the couch eating cheez-its and watching t.v. in between rounds of tickling each other. (See what I mean about the processed food?)

Hope your Monday's been bright! Oh, and if you get a chance, send up a prayer for my angel friend Jennifer. She is being induced in the morning and we're all hoping for a smooth VBAC.

before the end of summer

I wish to...

1. Bike the St. Marks trail with Boobie

2. Take a spontaneous day trip

3. Enjoy pink and blue cotton candy in my hammock

4. Create something beatiful

5. Take the big scary jump off the Wakulla Springs platform

6. Make a delicious Chicken-Pot-Pie and truly indulge sans guilty conscience

7. Read an amazing book (any suggestions)?

8. Laugh and laugh until I snort... (it happens when I really get going)

9. Picnic at the beach with my two favorite guys and some good friends

10. Plant a front yard FULL of St. Augustine grass


What do you want to do before September 1st?

M

have i gone completely nut-so???

perhaps. because right now i am blogging while my two very most favorite boys are sleeping ever so peacefully. I should join them in happy slumber land but I feel jittery and bloggeriffic so here I am...

some things have happened this weekend...some good...some not so good...

Goodies:

1. I re-lost the 3 LBS I gained at the Cabinets by LeMay open house party.

2. Boobie and I had a FABULOUS dinner in with old friends Friday night.

3. Saturday brought yet another delicious dinner with a darling couple and their adorable baby boy who I will soon be watching for them!

4. I got to spend the entire weekend with the Meester and Boobie.

5. Had the most delectable peach cobbler EVAH!


NOT SO GOODIES:

1. Didn't get to hit the pool with my lovelies and our cute babes.

2. Had to work out like a fiend to re-lose the 3 LBS I gained at the CBL open house party.

3. Had to leave sacrament meeting early due to sad sad Meester's grouchy over-tiredness.

4. Pooped out during Yoga X today...

5. The AC in our casa may have to be replaced... boo.

6. Gained 1.4 LBS from the delectable peach cobbler.

ok so right now the bad list is longer than the good list so lemme add one more goodie

I'm getting SUPER EXCITED for my BFF's baby shower next weekend!!!



yes, I am aware that the picture posted above has absolutely nada to do with this post but that's what happens when you lose the camera cord...sniffle. Luckily my hero husband has ordered me a new one. he takes good care of me always. i love you boobie...i'm coming in there to nuzzle you now (even though you said it's too hot in our house to touch)

later lovers,

M

determination.

so, hubbs and I have started a grueling 90 day workout program...maybe you've heard of it. P90X We workout 6 days a week, somedays with weights, some days it's kickboxing, somedays it's yoga.

So far it's going well. But it's only been 4 days...still got 86 more to go. We took before pics so if: no, WHEN we have something to show for our efforts I will DEFINITELY be posting the after ones.

If any of you remember this post you can note that my "goal" for this year has yet to be attained. I'm getting closer though and if I can stick to this workout and stop (hangs head in shame) eating an entire box of wheat thins in one sitting, I think I can do it.

Darn those crunchy, salty, mouth watering crisps of joy.

I will succeed at this. Oh yes I will.



sorry, still no camera cord to be found...

40 pounds later
