Day Three: Mommy's View

Today was a whirlwind of a day. My legs are so sore from yesterdays workout! It was one of those "terrible two" days with Kara. Im sure the poor girl feels like she has been demoted in her new big sister role, but unfortunately, a tired momma is not a very patient momma. She ended up shedding tons of tears over having to pick up her messes, and having one whole time out (which is life shattering for her).  And when she wasn't throwing a fit, she was going 100 mph! Daddy and I are thinking about taking her on a play date during the day on Friday to give her some special time without Baby Jax. We are trying to balance our understanding of how she must be feeling with our need to teach her the right way to act (not stomping feet and throwing fits ect.).  As frustrating as it can be... I LOVE that sweet girl and her smiles:) Mammy and Bump came over this evening and took her home with them for a last minute slumber party to give me a little extra sleep in the morning. I am really thankful that they live just down the street, they have been lifesavers many times!
I feel like i snacked a lot today (stress probably haha). I didn't eat anything bad but, I felt like every time I turned around I had the fridge open and was looking for something to eat. I also didn't drink near enough today. Adding that to my goal list for tomorrow. 
Kaleb cooked dinner tonight and ill admit i was a bit apprehensive. I have never had a reuben and i just don't like the way saurkraut smells! BUT I actually ended up loving the sandwich! Kaleb posted the link to the recipe in his post if you are interested. 
Todays workout was my favorite! Probably because there was no cardio:) It was shoulders and arms and all weights.  Im sure my arms will be sore tomorrow! We also were able to do a lto more of the ab workout tonight, im SO proud of us. Its only day three and Im already seeing progress in what we can do!
My goals for tomorrow are
#1 Drink more water
#2 Be more patient with the kiddos
#3 Stop snacking so dang much!


HaHa thought i would give you a tiny glimpse of my day.. this is her "I'm Craaaazzzzzzyyyy" face. Mommy agrees:)
Have a good night!
