Fit Mommy Friday 10 Week Challenge, Week 2

Yippee! This week I am actually glad to write this post. I met one of my goals for the week!
My goals were:
1. To add another day of exercise to my current routine starting with 10 minutes that day.
2. Lose 10 lbs by the end of the 10 weeks.

I did 10 extra minutes of exercise this week!! Yay!

I was very proud of myself because this week my schedule changed a lot and I had a hard time adjusting. I know 10 minutes isn't doesn't sound like much, but it is the only exercise I do by myself. There wasn't my personal trainer to push me or tell me what to do, or a friend to encourage me. This was big for me.

I haven't weighed myself, so I don't know if I've lost anything, but I'll try to check that before next week.

I am thankful that we live in the country. I enjoy the peace and quiet, the dark nights (no streetlights), and the room to run and play.

I am thankful for MT. He is four years old today. He is a ball of energy - sometimes fierce, sometimes sweeter than you can imagine. He brings all of us great joy and lots of laughter!

I am thankful for color. I am in awe of the amazing displays of color God created - From the hundreds of greens in one tree to the pinks and yellows of lantana, colorful potatoes, and the gorgeous blue of the sky. I am even thankful for the artificial colors in Maggie's cake!

Today I am grateful for my husband. He is my very best friend. I love that he is my opposite in many ways and that we balance each other so well.

I will start off the month by saying I am thankful that I live in a free country. I am grateful that I have the right to vote, the right to home school my children, and the right to worship as I choose.
