Par-tay and AccBLOGabili-tay

What up girls! I hope you're doing great!

We went to this cute girl's 30th B-day party (the cute one on the left) on Saturday night and had such a great time. Her Hubby did a fabulous job! She even got to ride a motorcycle for the first time! We got to see so many old Bible Study friends we haven't seen for too long. And the cute one in the middle, Ms Joelle, holding our little bundle of sweetness. =) I always have such a great time with that fun girl. I wish we got more pics, we were too excited to share lots of laughs with friends. We had so much fun chatting and catching up and look forward to seeing everybody again soon!

[oh boy not a good angle for me=)!]

I'm sorry I didn't post AccBLOGability last week when I said I would, it turned into a bit of a tiring week (I know you're sad, stop wiping your pretend tears).

I am on a mission. Next Edition just came out of the shoot 11 weeks ago and I gained 50 pounds during the preggy. =) So I'm trying to melt it off through eating well and exercising. I've lost about 28 pounds so far! And we've been in transition from moving and having a baby recently so I need to get back to having consistent quiet times and reading again!

I have to do it to stay accountable and would love for you to join me in any of the areas!

Reading the Bible

I haven't started back up yet... I know... We pray pretty much all day, each time we eat (which is a lot ha!), naptimes, bedtime, snacks=), and it is more than just thanks for the food=). I'm trying to figure out which Old Testament book I want to read again along with some Proverbs too. And I want to get the Power of a Praying Wife! What are you reading?

Eating Well

We're doing pretty good peeps. Trying to cook and eat at home as much as possible for our thighs, bootays, and to save moolas=) If you like cod let me know, I'll post a super easy recipe next time! But how about boosting our metabolisms! I'm no health expert (so please share if you are!) but found several sites including this one on ways to boost (click for how)!

[1] Grapefruit [2] Green Tea [3] Yogurt [4] Almonds [5] Coffee (not toooo much=)) [6] Turkey [7] Apples [8] Spinach [9] Beans [10] Jalapenos [11] Broccoli [12] Oatmeal [13] Soymilk [14] Curry [15] Cinnamon [16] Salmon, Tuna

Exercising

We're still walking or playing tennis almost every day! And we found a beautiful state park to go for a hike along the river last weekend. I've lost 3-5 pounds since last we spoke!! We need to get a digital scale, I try to trick myself by not zeroing out the scale, I put it a couple pounds up for further motivation (if I don't have enough already=)!) ha!

[oh I look so short, squatty, and my eyes are closed, but look at the background=)!]

How are you doing?? Happy Week Blogettes!
