Suddenly I See

I have always used the excuse that I cant exercise because of my kids. They need constant supervision, and when they napped, either I did too, or I cleaned, etc...I tried so many times to get up at 5 am and exercise. I would do great for a week, then stop. I cant keep it up. So, my new morning routine has changed a bit. I always thought I needed to be alone when I exercised (ie...no kids). This way I could sing as loud as I wanted, have epiphanies when the endorphins kick in, etc... While I hope to get to that point someday. Right now it isn't happening. So, my twins have become part of my exercise routine. I am quite surprised how easy it has been. Right now they come to the basement with me and sit at their table and entertain themselves with

It's turned out really well so far. I am sure I will have to mix it up a bit, for me and the boys, but for now, it's what works. I have found that I can still sing as loud as I want. Ben comes over to me each and every time I sing and shakes his finger at me and tells me "too wauld mommy, too wauld" (too loud). I smile, apologize, and then tone it down a bit. The boys like the music and always at some point in the workout come over to the stairs and stand on them and dance while they watch me on the treadmill. I love this. So cute. I wanted to get a picture of them doing it today. But, instead of dancing, they didNo dancing, but equally as cute.

So, I will try my hardest to keep up my new routine. Reminding myself daily that BEAUTIFUL people take care of their body.
