Happy Hump Day to ya!

I’m so glad you guys liked that little fridge tour.  And I’m also glad that some of you are “real life” enough to be ok with my Diet Pepsi consumption.  We all have our vices and that’s mine.  (I also like to eat chocolate at breakfast, rarely floss and have chin hairs that I pluck so 20 more will grow back in their places.  Boom!)

So I thought I’d do another “Day In The Life” post.  Always a fun look into what really goes on around here.  Here’s a look at my Monday, August 24th.

A Day In The Life {8/24}

7:20am – Porter decides to sleep in (he’s my alarm clock).  Scoop him up and nurse quickly as I yell at the other two to get ready.  I ask three questions every morning – 1) Have you peed on the potty?  2) Have you made your bed?  3)  Do you have socks on?  We rush out the door.

8am – Trackstars!  We do this workout:

9:15am – Arrive back home.  Nurse Porter and put him down for his morning nap then take a shower.

9:45am – Get H & C started on their schoolwork while eating breakfast (a protein pancake…I need to switch things up and try something different but I never do).  Henry brings me his finished worship song (he’s been working on it for a couple of days).  I smile.

10-12pm – More schoolwork.  We never really took a summer break but this week I tightened the reigns a bit.  Henry is learning early multiplication and cursive.  Clara is still focusing on reading (learning hard vowels).

12pm – Run errands –> Bank, take recycling, GNC, Sally Beauty & Walmart.

2pm – Arrive back home & eat a late lunch.

2:30pm – Put Clara and Porter down for their afternoon naps.  Clara is 5 years old now but still takes a solid 2-hour nap.  We both need that break during the day.

3pm – Make myself a cup of coffee and sit down to study my Group Personal Training coursework (continuing ed).  Henry sits beside me and works on his math reasoning workbook.  Eat about 10 handfuls of Reese’s Peanut Butter chips (annnnd maybe another cup of coffee).

5pm – Clara and Porter wake up as Travis walks through the door.  Long naps!!

5:45pm – Travis and I work on the basement gym for a bit.  I paint a door while he hangs a mirror.

6:20pm – PRE-WORKOUT = banana + Justin’s!

6:45pm – Pack everyone up and drive to the rec park.

7pm – MoveMore Hill Workout!  Great group of (coincidentally) all couples.

8:30pm – Arrive back home and everyone takes baths/showers.  Put the kids to bed.

9pm – Dinner/post-workout = Big bowl of cereal with casein protein powder.  Watch two episodes of Scrubs. 

10pm – BED!

QUESTION:  What’s the ONE THING that you do every single day without fail??  <-make a protein pancake.  I need new HIGH PROTEIN breakfast suggestions!
