{ #weightwatchers Weigh In Week 3}

So week 3 has come and gone and here I am, 1lb lighter :) I'm pretty proud of myself. I stuck to my daily points and venture too far off the path. I didn't end up at the gym but I've got myself a new playlist and I'm ready for it now :) I've also got 50 Shades of Grey on audio book and I found that...

{90's Kid Survey!!}

Questions:1. Favourite Disney channel original movie?: Um...lets see...I really liked Wish Upon a Star or whatever that was lol. It was about the 2 sisters and one of them wished she could be like the other or something and she got her wish, they switched bodies. It's pretty awesome ;). 2. Favourite...

{Lost In My Own World}

I have been doing very little the last few days. Why? Because my little brother heard I wanted to read Fifty Shades of Grey..so he got me all 3 ebooks! I have already blown through 1 and 2. I'm on Chapter 3 of the 3rd one now. I don't know what it is about these books that pulls me in so fast. Most people think its the sex (it very well could help me along lol) or because Christian Grey is supposed...

{ #weightwatchers Weigh In Week 2}

I feel like I haven't been on my points this week. I've eaten things I shouldn't and I didn't pay attention to points like I should. So its not really surprising that I gained a little bit. I am also wondering if its water though. I went to the gym today and when I weighed myself after, I had gained weight. The only thing I can think is that I'm drinking a lot of water. So I don't know. I guess...

{ #RocktheLunchBox Influenster Box!}

I am so excited that I got sent these coupons from Influenster! For those that don't know what Influenster is, it's basically a product review website. You answer questions and they send you products to test out. You review on their website and you can also earn more points for writing blog posts (like the one I'm doing now), unbox on YouTube, Tweet about it, and Facebook it. The more points you have...

{Hes not a Baby Anymore}

*tear* *sniffle* *sob* My baby isn't a baby anymore. When did that happen? How is he so big already? It seems like just the other day I was holding both of his hands while he walked across the living room. ...

{A Step in the Right Direction}

We have lived in this house for 3 (almost 4) years now. We have pulled up carpet and redone the dining room floor (which needs done again) and pulled up carpet in both the boys room and Dawns room. I've painted and we even painted the living room floors so we wouldn't have to go through the BS we went...

{The Youtubes are a Black Hole!}

I love Youtube. I think it's one of the best inventions ever. Without it I never would have learned how apply make-up properly, or that someone other than celebrities could walk into a Sephora and purchase amazing make-up. Yeah. But then I get bored and start searching for random things. A lot of...

{ #weightwatchers Dinner: Turkey Muffin Balls}

I forgot to snap pictures tonight. So if you want to see what these delicious balls are supposed to look like you'll have to click here for the recipe :). I know that I've talked about how many picky eaters there are in my house. Owen and Gaige are the worst. They pretty much live on cereal. Don't judge me. In my opinion as long as they're eating they're fine. They'll find something better at some...

{ #weightwatchers Weigh In Week 1}

So I'm down .8lb. Which isn't a lot but I think I did pretty good this week :). Especially since we had basically nothing to eat this house that wasn't high in points. Losing is better than gaining though so I'll take anything I can get. That being said I went grocery shopping today and picked up a...

{January Ipsy Bag!}

Yay! I'm so excited that this finally came in! I've been putting off joining Ipsy for a long time. Probably since they first came out and YouTube beauty vloggers were all over them. Back when they were My Glam Bag and no one thought they were any good lol. But recently I've been watching unboxing...

{Another Dentist Adventure}

Gaige and Owen both had dentist visits today. Our last appt did not go well. Owen had to have a crown and ended up needing to wear "the blanket" and get laughing gas. You don't know stress until you hear your kid screaming cause he's scared and you know what's being done has to be done. They didn't hurt him. And they were really nice about it all. I'm sure they get kids like that all the time. ...

{My name is Kristin and I am Obsessed with TV}

I know. The first step to getting help is admitting you have a problem. I'm there. I have been a TV watcher since I was a little girl. I started out with the typical shows a girl might watch growing up in the 80's. Jem, Strawberry Shortcake, Rainbow Brite, Shera. But eventually I graduated to MTV and their long list of trashy reality shows, I remember the very first Real World people. The first one....

{Mom Blogging...or is it?}

So I don't follow a lot of mom blogs anymore. Not because I don't enjoy them or want to meet new moms. Because I do, I really do. But because I feel like they're more about reviews and giveaways than they are about parenting anymore...

{My Return to Weight Watchers}

Yep. After giving it quite a bit of thought and researching nutrisystem after hearing my father in law talk about it, I decided to get back on the plan. I've been seriously lacking in my tracking since about July and it has lead to my gaining back almost all of the weight I'd lost on Weight Watchers since January of last year. Oddly enough I'm pretty sure it was about this time last year...

{I ♥ Sonic Slushes & A Face mask that tastes like Chocolate!}

You guys..omg! I love Sonic. I love all the things on their menu. Seriously you can not go wrong eating there! No. They are not good for my points. The Chicken Club Toaster that I get is 20pts. Which is sad. But it's worth it! Also, I don't know about the rest of America but for me, the best part of summer is the fairs. Not because I love going (I actually loath it most of the time. Who wants over...

With temps getting below freezing the last couple days (at least here in good ol' Illinois) I thought I'd do a little post about what a mom (or anyone to be honest) should keep in their car....

{What a Random Dream}

Do you ever dream about the most random, off the wall, things and you have no idea how your brain even cooked up that scenario? I have those dreams all the time. Sometimes I'll dream about people who have passed. Which is weird on its own but I understand why I'm doing it. Then there are dreams like the one I had tonight. I've had them before and I always wake up a little shocked that my mind would...

{My Home with Wheels}

I know that I've talked about how I inherited my grandpas motorhome. I knew I was getting this amazing vehicle long before he became ill. I think it was mine before I could actually form the sentence to claim it. When I was a teenager I remember him telling me someone had stopped at the gas station he owned to inquire about purchasing it. He said "if it were up to me I would talk about selling it....

{Sometimes Being a Mom is Boring}

With the holidays over and having just one more event planned before school starts back up, my life has gotten so boring. Not that it was full of excitement before lol, but its gotten even more so lately. There are plenty of things I could write about. Like how I hate doing laundry, or how I really wish Owen wouldn't stand outside the bathroom door while I poop. But those are all such mom things...

{2015 Goal List}

While everyone else is busy making their New Years Resolutions I'm making goals. I realized a long time ago that my resolutions were just not getting kept. They were being swept off to the side around February and forgotten completely by April. Last year was the first year I had actually stuck to what...
