Week in Review w/ VLOG! July 7 - 13, 2014

 Hello friends!Welcome to Monday huh!? It came too early and too fast for me.  Normally every Monday or at the beginning of the week, I post a week in review recapping what happened over the week & weekend. Its something that I have been doing off and on for years. Its just a simple way to give you guys a glimpse into our weekend. I also vlogged a little each day which you can see in the video below. I have been trying to move all my video's to my main channel including the vlogs but for right now I am uploading them to both channels. I think that is the best way to do it right now but eventually they will probably all move to my housewife life main youtube channel. I hope you don't mind but I have been trying to figure out a way to make everyone happy. I don't expect you to watch them twice but now you will be able to find my vlogs on both channels.

#Summerfit Vlog- From Start to Finish! -[ Video ]

So yesterday was our normal day to go do some swimming. As you will see in the video below.. it wasn't easy getting started. I just wanted to stay home and  not go work out. And swimming laps is a work out. When I am finished, my heart rate is up, my face is red, and I am wore out! I  big fitness fanatic.. Really, I am just trying to get my body feeling better in every way. I am eating a little more healthy...putting some excise in my life.. and trying to center my soul. Believe me, I never work out and I can do laps! I have really been enjoying our time at the YMCA. I think its well worth it. And just so you know, they do work with you if you are on a lower income which is nice. I know a lot of families just don't have the $75 a month for a membership. Just go to your local YMCA website and print the form. The idea is to just to add as much as you are comfortable to your healthy routine and keep increasing little by little. The YMCA is a great place to start it. 

Here's my journey from morning in the house to finishing with dinner! Don't forget to use #SummerFit to show me what you are doing this summer to stay fit! 

Hope you enjoy!

Too Much Thinking and Not Enough Sleeping..

Late night hello to you all. Since I can't sleep.. I figured why not blog. I am tired.. actually I am exhausted but no amount of sleep seems to help. Things have been so crazy that I wake up all hours or the night and morning with stomach aches...or I wake up from a crazy dream that brings thought after thought flowing through my sleepy mind. Today I think my lack of sleep and all the problems going on around here finally caught up to me. It seemed everywhere I went I was either pissing people off or getting pissed off. It all started with what happened around here a few days ago. Since our big life changing day.. its been hell. I have been depressed, angry, confused and  sad. scared too. I didn't really venture out since Saturday night. Sunday I was home all day except when Scott and I left to get some stiff drinks and food. Then Monday.. nothing. Tuesday..nothing.. Seriously.. I just sat on the couch all day yesterday and wallowed. I knew I had no business mingling around the public. The cats were out of wet food.. the house was a mess.. and I just didn't give a shit. Brittany upset me so bad yesterday that I was on the phone screaming at her father.. who was trying to calm me down. Now that's one for the books. He never tries to calm me down. Normally he's more of a instigator. Guess he knew how serious it was. Scott seemed pretty upset that Tuesday I wasn't cooking. Yea right. I wasn't going to do that..so around 10pm I ordered a pizza for the kids and went to bed. So today.. I wake up, with the same things on my mind.. and can't get back to sleep. I stumbled to the coffee pot, and then notice that one of the cats left me a big hairball in the middle of the floor. I seriously just stepped over and proceeded to the couch. I think I remained there pretty much the entire day. Around 5pm, I started quickly picking up the house. I just couldn't look at it any longer. But it wasn't like a day of cleaning. It was 30 minutes with the kids, getting the worst areas picked up. I really knew I should not be in public with my attitude but I had promised the kids that we would go swimming. 

YMCA SummerFit! [ Video's ]

I am starting to ty to get healthy. First thing I started with was supplements and vitamins. Then I joined the YMCA.. So come along and watch not only my own journey, but my families journey to get more healthy! This is a new series starting up.. I hope you get inspired and start making some healthy changes! If you are already on a fitness routine.. feel free to share what works for you! Around here, we are all beginners! I am including the vitamin video below also in case you missed it!

Hope you enjoy both videos! 

Here is the most recent.. from our time at the YMCA

 And here is the video about the vitamins!

We are now off for more time at the YMCA. We are meeting husby there after he gets off work! I am seriously thinking about signing for some yoga classes next! Feel free to let me know what healthy steps you have been taking lately! And don't forget to use #SummerFit to show me! 

Have a great evening!

Tuesday.

Hello and Happy Tuesday to you all! I hope you are having a great day. I am trying to get motivated but God knows.. I am just exhausted and just don't want to do anything. Yesterday wasn't the best day for  Scott and I. We both seemed to bitch more than anything. Not so fun for any of us so I just went to bed early. I think with everything going on, neither of us truly feel appreciated. Its just been a lot to get moved with the kids here.. get adjusted to a new city that we don't know.. and still have all the problems of every day life. Let's just say.. its been stressful to say the least. Hopefully tonight will be better. I always say that I have a real marriage. There are really good times and also there are times when its not so good. I don't really want to bash my husband.. being I know it's not all him. We both have our own issues but it's nothing that we can't work through but I really did want to ring his neck last night! I left last night to go get some sweet tea and frosties.. Brittany and Zane thought I ran away. Then they realized my favorite cat was still here so there was no way I wasn't coming back! Hahaha! I pretended my little trip to Wendys at 1am was a vacation but running away really isn't an option with a houseful of kids! Brittany pointed out that she will always find me.. and I know she would! Once I came home we had to have a talk about marriage...the kids hate it when we don't get along and they have questions if they here us arguing. So I explained that marriage is hard sometimes but that doesn't mean you give up. Honestly.. Scott feels over worked and under appreciated and I feel the very same way. He feels that way with his outside job and I feel that way with the kids and house. I think we need a vacation! :)

Weekend in Review!

Hi friends! I hope you are having a great start to the week. I know Monday's suck for most people but around here.. its summer! That means staying up late.. sleeping in without alarm clocks.. and having fun! Right now the kids are all still asleep and the house is quiet. I hate to admit it, but I am actually enjoying every minute! We didn't have a ton of plans this past weekend. We have been moving so we just wanted to take it as easy. Scott and I are both exhausted but the kids has energy that goes on and on and on and on! 

They had a water-balloon fight ( which I did video but haven't got up yet ) and then it was playtime with the hose. 

Scavenger Hunt Time!!!

Yesterday I decided to start the summer off with a Scavenger hunt! I use to love doing these and thought it would be a lot of fun and it would also get them out of the house for a while! I decided to pay the winners $10 each and let me tell you now...IT WAS MONEY WELL SPENT! They were out there almost 4 hours hunting for stuff! Like I said.. Well Spent!




Once I gave the teams :

Brittany &  Carly

Zane &  Jackson

their bags and lists they got together and came up with plans on where to find all the items. Some of the stuff they had to take pictures of with their phones.. and I liked the idea they had their phones with GPS with them while they are running around the woods searching for things.

Summer Egg Fight [ Video ]

 Its been a fun few days.. yesterday we did a big Scvanager Hunt with the kids ( pictures coming soon! ) and today mom wanted to have an egg fight with them! It was a lot of fun watching! I stood back and took pictures and video and let them get all " yolky " , if you will! 

Here's the video and there are more pictures below! 

Jackson completes his FIRST TRIATHLON!!

Saturday Jackson completed his first Triathlon at 9 years old!! It was super early.. I wasn't feeling good, so husby went in my place and got some pictures! 

First up.. Jackson had to get numbered! 

Day @ Charlotte Discovery Place with my most favorite boys!

Today was a lot of fun at the Hands on Discovery Center.. We were going to the Zoo but we decided we had better find something in doors because of the rain.. 

This was perfect!

I took a ton of pictures and decided that I would share them in a slideshow way because it was just easier with so many photos. I should and will do this more often! 

Here they are.. 

And here are a couple of my favorites..

I love polar bears and I loved this one except it 

makes me kinda sad to see it this way.. but beautiful huh!? 

I think I wrote on 4 chalk boards.. 

and loved it! 

I also loved the building area.. 

I got busy.. 

I had a blast building and building! 

I also loved this area where you could make a shoe out of lots of different materials..

See..

LOVE IT! 

I also had fun looking through these glasses that made you see how a 

fly sees! 

I also thought this little guy was cute! 

Then we were off to see a 3D movie about dolphins.. 

Love this picture! 

Here we are in the rain forest. 

And I think my most favorite thing I saw at the Discovery Center was this.. 

Amazing Octopus..

I loved it!

Here is a little video that I have pieced together from today too! 

We had a great time and made lots of fun

Memories

That will last forever! 

I hope your weekend was also fun filled!
