Yoga Booty Ballet

For two mornings in a row, I have gotten up and exercised! I have used my DVD, Yoga Booty Ballet and did the fat burning and the hip hop abs. It is so much fun! If you are a former dancer this is definitely for you! If you have no dancing experience, it is for you too! It is too much fun... you don't even feel like you are exercising!

I do have to say, I bought it a few months ago (for much higher than you can get it for on the link to Amazon), and I only did it twice. But after writing an article on metabolism and how great exercise (and water) are good for your metabolism, I can only think of drinking water and doing exercise to burn those last 10 pounds I want to lose. More on the metabolism article later- and another great book on losing weight... soon to come!

A Long Week

This is Vacation Bible School week at our church. We have VBS each night for five nights from 5:45 - 8:30 pm, preschool through adults. And I am the director! So it has been a long week.

Not to mention, last night my son feel asleep on the way to Dairy Queen, so I did not get him any ice cream of course. And he woke up when he got home and wanted it, started crying, and then stayed up for another hour and a half! While my daughter fell asleep coloring the first night (she has been on a nap protest, but did take one today!). So tonight, my son fell asleep during crafts, right on the craft table. Rick went to go get him and got him in the car and he asked for his ice cream! His daddy went to take him to get his ice cream and he stayed awake for another hour at home and finally fell asleep!

It will be nice when things get back to normal, but then I will have to make dinner again. Right now, we get dinner at church each night- which is so nice!

A Late Night!

On Sunday, we were lucky enough to be able to get a babysitter and go out with our friends without kids! We went bowling (I won one round) and to dinner. Our son is infamous for taking "naps" at 7:00 in the evening. We forgot to tell the babysitter that, so he fell asleep and woke up before we got home. And our daughter went to sleep, but needed a diaper change when we got home, so she woke up too! So one was up until 12:30 am and the other until 2:00 am! We slept in until 9:00 am/ 9:30 am, but I did not recover yesterday until I went to bed at 10:00 pm! I was able to work on my website and such, but still, I could not believe how late we were up!

So does that mean we should not have a babysitter and should just live with having our children with us all the time!? I guess it is worth the late night to go out a few times a year! :)
