I kid you not. Every smiling picture of me turns out blurry! But on a more serious note, I think there is something majorly wrong with my camera. :( The batteries always say they are not charged (when they are)…and the battery compartment doesn’t stay closed. Sad day! It must last me a few more months at least! Don’t die on me camera!!! I love you too much!
I started an 8-week challenge with Mo and a ton of other people on her Facebook page. I love her. You know that right? She is one of my favorite people in this world…but about the challenge now. It has proven difficult. I am trying very hard. It involves at least 45 min cardio every day, a diet plan, and weights! My favorite part about the challenge is the weights. There are so many things I have never done before. Also I am eating 6 times a day! I actually kind of like it, although it is harder to prepare, and I obviously eat less during each sitting. Lastly, the cardio has proven good for me. I feel more capable of doing things I had a hard time doing 1 week ago, due to my poor exercise routine. This challenge couldn’t have come at a better time for me!
Yes, I stand like this…and yes I have flat feet. Now no more questions.
This is a very old necklace…from a very dear friend. It is from Hawaii. I wrote a whole paragraph about it, but then I got self-conscious…so I will just leave it at that.
For those of you who don’t know I need to get my diamond fixed on my ring. And honestly, it feels to fancy for a mother of a toddler to be wearing on a daily basis. I mean honestly? Have you seen my outfits? Other than Sunday posts, I tend to be in a cotton T and cutoffs. Does anyone else feel this way about wearing wedding rings when raising babies/toddlers? Or am I the only one? And btw mine will be 2 this WEEK!

Well done on signing yourself up to do such a challenging challenge! You are going to look and feel amazing by the end of it :D
I know you can feel self-conscious wearing diamonds sometimes, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it – lots of mothers of toddlers wear them, because they’re married and have been given diamonds as engagement/wedding rings! Would you share a close-up of your ring? I’m wedding-ring obsessed at the moment! :P
Ooo, good luck with the challenge! I’ve just come back from a holiday that involved A LOT of food, so may have to join you guys on it.
I love that necklace! Maybe you should get a second ring that isn’t so fancy. Even if it is just a band you could wear on your wedding finger.
That is AWESOME! All the best for the challenge!!!

Good luck on your challenge!
Your wedding ring is your bling and goes with ANYTHING!
Yay for lifting weights! It is sooooo good for you! So many women think they’ll turn into bodybuilders if they lift more than three pounds, but it takes a LOT more than that. I lift a LOT of weight, and while I do have some visible muscle, I don’t think anyone would look at me and call me bulky. I say also challenge yourself to lift as much as you can, doing 2-3 sets of at least 15 reps. It will transform your body and your mind!
As for the wearing of engagement rings, I gave that up when I gave up my first husband. I used to come home and take mine off anyway, because I had a dog at the time and washed my hands so much I’d get a rash under my ring. I’m sure you wash your hands a gazillion times with your little one. Plus, the scratch! I only wear a band now. I actually have a rose gold one and the white gold one from my wedding. I love the simplicity of a band, and I never take them off except to swap one for the other. Hand lotion, hand washing, whatever…no worries with just the band.
