Lifestyle Photos III

 After making the pizza and playing, we ate the pizza.























There are so many good ones. I love it.

7.28.18

I spent the day trying to clean for house guests.  It's not just cleaning the old mess or unpacking the old mess but the kids kept making a huge mess playing while I was busy cleaning.



I needed to make progress on this mess so we could eat here.  This isn't even a true before picture.


Miles and Ella liked looking at Ella's old photo book.

I did it.
The kitchen still needed work.
Then I had to get Miles to nap. That took forever.

Ella interrupted us and delayed us too. And Miles had to hold his lawn mower.


Ella wanted to take a bath with her swimsuit on.

The ribs caused a little too much smoke.

One of the racks of ribs broke off the hook and fell in the coals.   

Then later the 3rd rack fell. The third rack was even worse because we couldn't even see it to lift it up. We had to pour water to get rid of the smoke to find it. It was pretty ruined.
Progress
Miles was read.  They were late. He wanted to eat.   Dave ate 5 ribs or more while he was cutting them.


Miles kept checking if they were coming.
Finally it was time to eat!








After eating the kids played a ton. We played outside and inside. I barely took any pictures.

We sent them home with leftovers.  We kept some too. (We didn't eat any we kept though. oops)

I thought it went pretty well. I spent the entire day cleaning and didn't really cook. Dave spent some of the day cooking. I also handled the kids.  It worked way better than when I try to cook and clean and handle the kids.  Especially because food had to go in the oven and get prepped when I was getting Miles to nap. I can't very well do the prep while I'm sitting with Miles.

80 Day Obsession Week 12


I finished yesterdays workout and then did today’s workout. And then did a few extra exercises from when I went to PT for my back.





It’s so much warmer to work out on my main floor. I was wishing I was in my 61 degree basement during this workout.
I kind of “cheated” because of my back. I did 2 inchworms instead of 4. I was going to do 0 so I compromised. I paused a few extra times to just give my back a break. I recorded way more than this but figured you all don’t need a 10 min video.
I only did 36 minutes but I count it as a win. Miles woke up and cried and cried and cried. So it was over 30 min before I’d have gotten back to finish and by that point I just didn’t.

Day 71 Legs

Did my workout using the tracking sheets. Miles was asleep but without power there is no baby monitor. So after every grouping I ran upstairs to make sure he wasn’t crying. I still did the entire workout in 45 min. Not 54. I guess without a video to watch I don’t take as many few second breaks. My heart rate was up (yay) and my back didn’t hurt (yay). I used slightly lower weights so I didn’t hurt my back again.
My heart rate was up. Loved it.





7.29.18



I spent the morning getting ready for the race then heading there.  And of course I'm late.  I'm there with 2 kids trying to get from my car to the start.  People were already there waiting to register. 
I did a separate post on the race.
Ella played on the playground after with her friends. I was able to clean up and get things to the car.  Then we played a bit.





Then it was the worst time ever trying to get them to leave.  I had to carry both of them to the car. The car was not close. Then Ella puts her shoes on my head and they fall off so I have to try to bend down while holding 2 kids and get them.  I injured myself. 


Apparently I didn't take pictures for the rest of the day. I just have a couple.  I know I spent time loading race pictures and talking to people about the race.
