Me time!!

Have you ever had issues with your health because you go and go until you end up sick and in bed? You have to find time to rest. I don't just mean getting to bed at a reasonable hour (although that is part of it), I mean that you need to take some time to yourself regularly.
How many hours a day do you actually work? Do you need to work less but work smarter? Try taking more time to take care of yourself.

Here is what I recommend:
Start your day with your workout. Get that out of the way and begin your day with a success. You have truly proven that your health is a priority if you will make this change in your life. I know it's hard at first, but you will be surprised how you can make this a lifelong habit if you make the decision to do this.

Next I want you to consider your time for yourself. Do you take time away from your normal environment? Maybe you should take some time to go to the beach, a lake, park, or go for a hike at least once a week. Time away enables you to get perspective, to free your mind from the usual chatter that can keep you from being productive.

So make sure you take time to yourself, time to meditate, time with God that will renew your spirit, help you to feel more energized and bring you the ability to move forward with new enthusiasm.

Another benefit of doing this is that the obstacles that seemed to be looming large will often diminish when you are removed from them for a while. Sometimes, that is all you need to overcome those daunting issues - a little perspective.

 Plan your "me" time for the next week in your calendar NOW!

How to get your kids to eat healthier!

The best way I know of getting the kids to eat healthier is to have them help you prepare the food! Egg muffins are a super simple meal to make, and an easy way to get the kids involved too! All you have to do is cut up your toppings, lay them aside and mix the eggs. Once you're done mixing the eggs (I recommend the adult do this if the kids are little), add the egg mixture to the muffin tin evenly, and then have the kids sprinkle in the toppings. Easy peasy! In this recipe we used 12 eggs, added 1/4 cup onion, 1/2 cup tomato and 1/2 cup shredded cheese. Bake @ 375° for 20 minutes. I'm so proud of Miss K for helping me make these today! 💕 She did such a great job helping! And once they were done she was super excited to chow down on the fruits of her labor.

The battle is on!

Ughhh...The sickies have made it to our home!  All I want to do is run for cover or put on a gas mask and pray no one coughs, wipes their nose on me or sneezes in my face! Haahhaaa! Such wishful thinking for mommy of three! There's not even the slightest chance I won't at least get sneezed on or have someone wiping their buggers on my shirt. Hey! That’s life when you have little kids. And expecting to have beautiful tops that don’t look like condors eliminated all over them is everyone woman’s dream, but not necessarily a reality! Oh, and how I’d love to wear beautiful clothing on a regular basis. But for now, I’ll settle for my t-shirts, yoga pants and the occasional dress up moment for a special outing. Fancy clothing will have to wait for this Momma, because I don’t get a lot of time to mess around with being ultra-stylish. When I do stop to try and sort out my outfits, do my hair or brush my teeth… is usually the time my toddler or the 5 yr old start going through my
