Exercise!

So as most of you know i am overweight and about 3 weeks ago something just snapped in me and I said no more. My divorce got finalized and I realized that I have to get back in the dating scene and no guy is going to want to look at this. So I bought some more in home exercise movies since getting outside with 4 kids to go on a walk is a nightmare. I have been having a really hard time in the food area as I always have and I still struggle with the exercise thing. But I have managed to fit in an hour work out at least 4 days a week now which is tons more then what I was doing which was nothing. And today I was just sitting watching a movie with the girls and Briley jumped up and grabbed my movie and said "Mom it's time a exercise you have a fat belly." So there you have it my personal little motivater keeping me on track. So I got up propped the boys bottles and went to work. Can I just tell you there's a reason mom's don't get much time to exercise. As I'm lifting my weights and doing lunges in my family room I'm also tripping over Katelyn and Briley and Aaron and trying to keep the babies bottles in their mouths. Needless to say i broke a sweat but I really don't think it was all just from my exercise movie. What a pain in the butt. So far so good though I'm finally going down again. Slowly but surely.

Katelyn's broken leg

Since this has become my journal and I plan on printing it I thought I would add in some old memories plus when I uploaded my pics from my phone these were still on there. Some of you may remember this time last year but for those who don't a week after Katelyn's first birthday she decided she would try going up the stairs and ended up toppeling down. She only cried for a minute so we didn't think anything of it but for a week she favored her leg so we finally decided to take her into the doctor and low and behold it was broke. I felt so horrible that I let her live on it for a week but the doctor said that because it didn't lodge out of place and it was a clean break it only hurt her when she put weight on it which is why we didn't think there was anything wrong. Here's the day she got the cast.
Just a little memory funny but grose one of the days while she had her cast on she had a total blow out and stuff got everywhere even down the cast. When they took the cast off I was intently watching for any poop residue in the cast but luckily there wasn't any.
After 5 weeks she happily got it off.

Having a 1 year old with a broken leg was quite an adventure baths were a circus. I would lay her on her back while Ammon would hold her leg up in the air. She eventually got really good at crawling but because she lost that critical month she didn't learn to walk till she was 16 months old. Plus about 2 weeks after she got her cast off Briley was chasing her around the coffee table and pushed her over and she ended up spranging her ankle on the other foot. The poor thing just didn't dare stand after all of that for quite a while.

Pics from my phone

Ya I'm just not cut out to be in front of the camera I think I'll stick with hiding behind it.
Experimenting with the mirror. It didn't work so great.
