Confessions of a Clumsy Mother
05/04/2011 12:00
Before I launch into this story, I must remind you that we had a pact that no matter what you read on here, you wouldn't report me to the authorities. Actually, it was more of a contract. I think you signed it in blood. It's legally binding...Please don't rat me out.

Grumpy Easter Everyone!
04/24/2011 10:33
I'll start with the good. Yesterday was a lovely day. Nana and Papa came over, and I cooked a lunch complete with ham, potato salad, deviled eggs, baked beans, crescent rolls, and a strawberry pie. It was my first ham, and no one got food poisoning, so I consider it a...
All about me
04/20/2011 13:30
Since most of what I've been writing lately has been about me and not the kids, I started a new site to chart my progress. I will update this one when the kids do something noteworthy. Easter is this weekend, so I'm sure I'll at least have pics to post.

That's my time for my first 5k. I am more than pleased, since my goal was just to finish it within the allotted hour. And I didn't finish last. That was my biggest fear. Trevor finished at 38:24. He was hoping for less than 36 minutes, because his Running Club coach...
Beach pics
04/12/2011 13:31
I usually take a nauseating amount of pictures of the kids at the beach (or anywhere else for that matter), but this time I just took the camera on the first day. To be honest, it was sort of a relief when I realized I had forgotten the camera on the other days. I put a lot of pressure...
CEX Update
04/12/2011 13:14
I lost track of whatever day I'm on, so I'm just calling this an update. Thursday through Sunday we were at the beach, which normally spells disaster for me. I can't tell you how many diets have been abruptly halted by a trip to the beach. I have also never exercised while...
CEX Day 10 and Some Product Reviews
04/06/2011 09:27
Yesterday was a scheduled day of rest on the ChaLean program, and I've been trying to do cardio even on the rest days, but a big Bio exam precluded that. I think the day off did me some good, as I was fresh today with no more soreness. Yay! My body is...
CEX Day 8
04/04/2011 10:08
Trevor is on Spring Break this week, but he still woke up at 6am to walk with me. He wants to continue training for his 5k while he's out of school, and unfortunately, that's the only time we have to walk without the girls. He's surprisingly motivational for a...
CEX Day 7- On My Way to Naked Pushups
04/03/2011 09:19
Here's what I've been doing wrong when I start a new diet/ exercise plan- I only check the scale. So when week 2, 3, and so on roll around I get very discouraged by measly pounds lost and sometimes gained, despite my best efforts. When the scale stalls, I end up...
CEX Day 6- Our First Fight
04/02/2011 09:41
On today's Chalean Extreme agenda were Burn It Off and Recharge. Before I do any of Chalean's workouts, I go to Extremely-Fit.com and read Robert Harden's reviews. He breaks down each workout and tells you every exercise that's in it, so I know what to expect. It also has...
