My Three Bittles

Hey ya'll! I know I've been absent lately but I plan on getting back at it here soon. I want to document my 'get healthy' progress, our last month(s) in Alaska and our move!!!

But until then I bring you one my my fave bloggers (and I call her friend too). She's asking for an itty bitty little favor so please help her out!

***********************************************************************************************

Once upon a time there was a fair maiden. She wasn't the fairest in the land but her husband thought she was pretty awesome.

 Okay.... I have no idea what I'm talking about, it sounded good though. Anyway, Hi guys!! I'm Amber and I blog over at My Three Bittles and I'm here today because I need some help. This month I was lucky enough to be part of an online styling contest through onlineshoes.com. Here's how I styled these adorable sandals.

Cute, huh?! I thought so. So anyway, I'm here to basically ask you to go vote for me. (I'm the first one) and help me win! The winner gets some money to spend on the site and I plan to buy my ittle bittles some school shoes for the fall. But I can't do it without a bit of help.

Head here to spare a vote for me. It literally takes 2 seconds. You don't have to like anything or sign up for anything. You CAN put your email address in to win a pair for yourself though!

Thank you for your time and help! I truly can not express how much I appreciate it! Click HERE to vote.

So today is the day....

...again.

I've said it before and I'm hoping not to have to say it again, I'm going to start to workout, eat good and get fit and healthy.

I wrote a post just like this on February 5th and here I am just over 3 months later and didn't stick with it. So we'll see how it goes.

I did have hubs take my measurements Sunday night and I weight in yesterday morning. I'll post those below. Not sure if I'll measure once a week, every 2 weeks or every month.

I did workout yesterday. I did 50 squats (part of a 30 day squat challenge), 21 pushups (part of an app, but I'm confused about it so I'm not doing the app anymore, just pushups), 20 crunches (part of a 30 day crunch challenge) and 20 walking lunges. Oh and I walked 2 miles at 3.5 miles per hour. Still can't run because my ankle is still messed up from spraining it. I've been doing rehab on it so I'm hoping to get back to running soon.

And as far as eating I had a bowl of bran flakes with raisins for breakfast, leftover spaghetti for lunch, some pretzels with Emma for a snack, grilled chicken with black bean and corn salsa on top of a salad and homemade tortilla chips. Then for dessert we had homemade cinnamon sugar tortillas with homemade fruit salsa.

So far today I had a bowl of bran flakes with raisins for breakfast. And I'm sipping some earl gray tea with honey and a little sugar now. It's only 10:40. I have leftover chicken at home to eat. I might go home and take a nap then have that after. Didn't sleep well last night so feeling tired and a little sick.

So without further ado here are my stats:

So there you have it. I'll try and keep updating you all a couple times a week with what I've been eating and doing to exercise. And if not every week, probably every other week with measurements. I don't think I can go a month without measuring, lol.

First Communion

This past Sunday was Ryan's First Communion. He (as well as us) have been waiting for this day for a long time! This year has been full of not only regular religious education classes on Sunday but Saturday classes once a month and 2 half day retreats for them.

But finally the day arrived! I'm not sure who was more nervous....him or me. At least the mom next to me was nervous and sweating right along side me.

We had a party for him also after. We had a house full of people and it was great! We are truly blessed to have the people in our lives that we do!
