Spring Break Day 2

Today's activities were a HUGE hit!!!!
Our first activity was a Dot to Dot car , counting to 20. Spiderman, of course, needed help connecting the dots and counting but the girls were able to do it on their own.
Necxt we made paper plate chicks. The kids LOVED this one!!!! They loved using the glue and playing with the feathers!

Spring Break Day 1

So the girls have Spring Break this week and we are not going to watch tv and movies the entire time... Just some of the time.
Our first activity was SHAVING CREAM!!!! They love playing with shaving cream especially when I add food coloring!
Our second activity was coloring pictures from the movie The Lorax. The dvd we have of it is crap, but they still love that movie!

Update!

So it has been almost a week since my last post. Here are a few highlights! The girls have Spring Break this WHOLE week. I am going to start following the DDP Yoga Program instead of randomly picking which work-out to do. I am so excited to see how I change physically and mentally! Along with that, I will be doing a daily post saying what exercises I did. I am seriously so excited about this!!! I'm going to get it typed up so I can mark on it instead of in my booklet.

Below The Belt

Tonight I did a new work-out called Below the Belt.... Holy Mother!!!! It works your butt and legs mostly, but also your core. Such a good work-out! First one where I was actually dripping sweat! I am getting better at engaging my muscles and getting my heart rate up. In other news, I am working to get my Facebook page together. I've also been thinking of doing a video blog on Youtube. So definitely more to come!

Glorious Food!

When I work on the weekends, I don't really have a break to sit down and eat breakfast or lunch. My breakfast gets replaced by doTERRA's Trim Shake. Today I added strawberry and bananas.... SO GOOD!!!!
And for quick snacking between sessions, my darling husband put together a sweet little platter for me. Celery, apples, strawberries and grapes. He didn't even forget our natural peanut butter! Luckiest girl in the world to have a sweetheart that supports me as I am on the road to being healthy.

60 Days! BANG!!!

So it has been 60 days. Well, more like 63. I put off taking pictures cause I didn't want to see the results that didn't happen. Of course we are our own worst critics. I showed the pictures to my therapist friend and she started pointing out my changes. Sometimes it is good to get an outsiders opinion. I have changed quite a bit actually.
-My shoulders are rolled back
-My pelvis isn't anteriorly tilted like it was
-Definite flexibility changes
-Growth in balance
-Definite toning
So the changes that I see now are more structural, which is GREAT! I am going to work hard to our 90 pics!

Twizzler Challenge

Remember the Ice Bucket Challenge for ALS last year? Well, yesterday I heard of the Twizzler Challenge that people are doing for Autism.
As a mother of 3 Autistic children, instead of doing this challenge, please donate your Twizzler money to the Northern Utah Autism Program. It runs off a grant from the state. The only things that grant covers is salaries for the teachers, aides and rent for the classrooms. All classroom supplies are donated, mostly by parents. The majority of the families in the program are low income and don't have funds to get supplies. So if you get nominated, or are feeling generous, :) please consider donating to the Northern Utah Autism Program.
You can get to their website here or their Paypal is nuapfundraisers@gmail.com
