10 weeks 10 pounds

I haven’t blog recently, for several reasons, we are super busy...

 I have started a major workout/life style change and I feel great. In 10 weeks I have lost 10 pounds, of course I wish it were more but…I want to lose weight and I am not into a fad diet or changes that won’t last long-term…so a slow and steady pace has been good for this little life makeover.

 

Here’s what I have got that has really helped #1. GYM membership with childcare, #2. Nike fuelband and app for phone, #3. Lose it app

 

#1. Gym membership has been super awesome. I go 6-7 times a week…. Took a little building up to go this often but really I don’t feel the same when I don’t go to the gym! I feel like I didn’t do something I was supposed to!

#2. Nike fuelband… the most awesome purchase ever. It is an activity monitor that shows you how active you are, reminds you to be active and pushes you to be even more active throughout the day.

#3. Lose it app. An app that syncs with my fuel band… and allows me to track my calories each day, along with my exercise and  is where I record my weight to watch and meet weight loss goals.

Super cool apps that I plan to write more on!

Here are my stats since I started working out using the Nike fuelband. So cool to see the progress.

 

This shows you the averages for each week. Average amount of calories burnt through workouts, steps per day, and "nike fuel."

 

 

 

 

9 month check

Max and Eli had their 9 month check up last week and their developmental appointment and the results are... They are just perfect! 😍

Big boy hair cut

 

My Noah got his first real hair cut yesterday...aka... Big boy hair cut.

I liked the long hair... but it seemed like all of a sudden it got  a little crazy. I was kind of sad to think about aging up to a BIG boy hair cut. But I am glad I did because I love it so much and it looks sooo good! I took him to one of those overpriced kids places that has the car/ride seats to sit and get your hair cut... I showed him pictures online a head of time and talked to about what would happened. He was so excited to ride in the "police car" until it was his turn and then he flipped out. Crying and clinging to me for dear life... but this girl was a pro... she just started cut his hair while he was cling to me like it was totally normally, eventually I sat in a grown up chair and she cut his hair... he calmed down and started talking about how he wanted a orange lollipop for getting his hair cut.

Presley was there to literally cheer on her Noah. I talked her about how only Noah was getting a hair cut, because girl's like long hair. I had to do this.. because I didn't want her to get her hair cut and I know she would have been jealous if I didn't explain first. She was saying "yay Noah get hair cut! good job Noah" So sweet! Also you can see from the pictures they had a Thomas the Train play set in the waiting area... the first thing Presley did when Noah started crying was run over to the train set and grab Thomas and bring it to him... to cheer him up!

I love them!
