Sharing my life from son up 'til son down
Sorry for the blog silence lately, I've just been doing a whole lot of this... These crazy boys are keeping their mama on her toes. We've been checking things off our Summer to-do list and trying my very best to tire these guys out! So far so good, but it's tiring me out equally. Speaking of tiring, I'm not sure what's been kicking my butt more...my 5:30am boot camp or my boys! The ... [ Read More ]
So it's pretty safe to say we have this clean eating thing down, and all this running is leading to some pretty great endurance and calorie burning...but something's been missing from the equation for awhile now and that's MUSCLE.

I always love seeing everyone's healthy meal plans for the week, and realized I haven't posted mine for awhile. I currently have several friends on the Advocare 24 Day Challenge and some starting up soon, so I know these were always helpful for me when I felt like all I was eating was chicken and veggies all week. There are so many awesome clean recipes out there that you should never feel bored ... [ Read More ]
Summer is in full swing, and I think my blog has decided to go on vacation along with us. And that's ok....nothing wrong with a little rest and relaxation. We didn't do anything planned this past weekend, and I loved every single second of it. Doing so little has never meant so much. We are definitely always on the go, and I forgot how nice it feels to slow down and let the day unfold on it's ... [ Read More ]
