What workouts?

Since I am on this very annoying enlightening journey to better health, I thought I would share some of the exercises I am doing.

Walmart.com

This is the X-Factor set. Twelve DVDs for 30 bucks! You can get this set at Walmart. I have really enjoyed it so far. I am on week three, and I can barely get through the workouts! Week 1 and 2 were hard, but manageable. This is very similar to the concepts that drive P90X and Insanity, just at a lower price. Now if you have done either of those, this will probably be too easy. BUT if you are like me, and you are trying to get to the point of doing those workouts-this is a great place to start!

I can't begin to tell you how much I LOVE doing kettlebell exercises! They work so many muscles and its actually fun to do. This set is the one I have, and its pretty inexpensive. I would recommend getting gloves because your hands will get raw!

Clever Training Blog

I don't care what anyone says, yoga was created for mommies. Seriously, yoga has helped me clear my head and get the kinks out of my back.

I know what some of you are thinking, "How can you do yoga as a Christian?" 

My answer is this-I don't do any of the spiritual stuff. Actually, I use yoga as my time to meditate on the Lord. It clears my head and helps me focus on Him. That's it.

Weight Training, Strength Training

My hubby got me one of these balls and its awesome! So many different things to do with it. If you are pregnant-I highly recommend this! Sitting on it relieves so much pressure it is un-real. I used it during my labor with my second, and it was such a lifesaver!

But for exercises I just check out Pinterest! There's so much information on there!

Finally, I am trying to get back into running. I quit for a while when the weather got super cold, and now I miss it. It really was helping to get me motivated and focused. I gotta get back at it. My dream is to run a half marathon-and I am far away from getting there.

There it is! My list of my favorite workouts! 

Hopefully this week I will be joining our YMCA, so things might just change up a bit!

What are some of your favorite workouts?

What Moosey Says 2.0

Just waking up.

Here she goes again!

"Mommy, I gotta go to the post office to drop off this paper. Then I've gotta go to school. Mommy, I need your car."

Cashe had ripped his diaper off then peed on the floor. "Mommy! Look! Cashe's butt is leaking! That's why he took his diaper off!"

We sometimes call Cashe "Cashe Man"...apparently Moosey thinks that is actually his name.

"Cashe Man Burleson! Stop that right now!"

Melody: "Daddy, my leg hurts."

G: "Want me to kiss it and make it better?"

Melody: "No, just pray for me."

So Moosey learned about Mary and Martha in Sunday school. She even made stick puppets where Mary looks happy and Martha looks sad/mad. When asked why Martha was mad she replied-

"Martha was mad because she couldn't go to Wal-Mart."

"You gotta push that pee out, Cashe! You gotta do it so you can poop and go on the potty!"

Deep insight there ladies and gentlemen.

So what crazy stuff do your kids say? Would LOVE to hear them!

Pantry Rehab

Just wanted to show you guys some things I did today!! 

Sorry for the crappy pictures, I used my phone!

I re-organized my pantry and I finally feel like I got it functioning right! I was so packed I couldn't fit any of my groceries from Sat in there! Now with some rearranging I am able to fit everything and more in there!! So excited! 

I even did my fridge!! I am VERY proud of this!! I love opening this up and seeing all of the yummy and healthy goodies in there!! 

How do you have your pantry or fridge organized?

Pinterest Project!

I am so obsessed with Pinterest! But who isn't, right?

Here is my little project I did from being inspired after countless hours of messing on that site. You have probably already seen these before, but this is my cheap-o version.

The jars were three bucks from Walmart. The stickers a dollar and the bags of rocks are a dollar each.

I love how visual this is! I wish I had a cool machine to have made prettier cutouts, but it functions just fine.

I even put my goal number. 70. Yup. Seventy pounds. That would put me at a 100 pound weight loss from the time I had my babies.

I am motivated! I am learning daily to let God be in on my struggles with food. I no longer want to be bound to anything but Him.

Made to Crave has been a Godsend. I hear him tugging at my heart more and more through the realization that I have been going to food before I take my issues up with Him. The burden keeps becoming lighter and lighter.
