no pain, no gain:)

Man, I am feeling the workout...it was hard to walk up stairs today.  I go back in the AM:) Today was great.  I left work and picked the girls up from school.  Someone at worked emailed us a list of healthy foods.  Scallops was on the list, so I decided I wanted to make them for dinner.  This is my second time trying and I was as unsuccessful the second time as the first.  I think I will let professionals cook them for me from now on. 

I'm not so tired...

Today was AWESOME!!!! I was sooo excited about my first hour session with my personal trainer...he worked me soooo hard...I loved it!!! I get lazy by myself at the gym...especially if I have been on my feet all day teaching...I will go for a while and get on the treadmill.  Today, I hit the cardio hard for 10 minutes and the rest of the time my trainer had me doing me so much.  I told him I was happy to use some of the free weights that I am normally intimidated about...and other intimidating machines...It was such a great work out!!

The girls were super cute as usual! Sophia dressed in a robe with a hula skirt.  Isabella built me a garden of legos...they are awesome...and so is my husband...I am blessed!

Monday

I am sooo tired...today was great.  I am super excited because I found a personal trainer and I start tomorrow!  I worked out for a little while today and then picked the girls up.  I made chicken in the crock pot.  It was good:)  I have a ton of school work to do, but I am tired...ok, enough complaining.   Life is good:)

Curlers...

The other day I was straightening my hair and using a curling iron and chi...Isabella wanted me to curl her hair because her friends had curly hair.  I tried, but the curl wouldn't hold.  Today when we were at HeB I found old school rollers my mom used to put in Christa and my hair.  I remember the night before the first day of school, mom would always roll our hair...We had "new clothes" ready and wanted to look the part...I am not going to lie...I am not sure how good or bad the girls hair will look, but they were super excited. 

We had company all weekend...busy, but fun..they left this morning...then Dave and I went to have lunch and grocery shopping (hence the hair rollers)...we came home, girls took naps, and I worked on graduate work.  life is good....I have decided to hire a personal trainer...I am super excited...for dinner I cooked a t-bone steak and salad...Molly was excited to have the Bone...life is good!!

Show and Tell

Friday was show and tell at the girls' school.  Sophia decided to bring a purse.  Isabella's class has been studying food, tastes, etc.  When I picked her up Thursday she was cutting out food from an advertisement that she would like to eat.  I asked if she wanted to bring a cook book for show and tell.  She was super excited.  We even baked carrot cupcakes for her to bring because the cook book was a baking cookbook.

Friday evening my parents came into town.  They bought a stove top and needed to pick it up.

Lupe Tortilla

Our cleaning lady came Wednesday and I was not finished by the time we got off of work.  We decided to go to Lupe Tortilla and let the girls play in the sandbox.  Ashlee and Danny met us.
