Our July fitness goal is....

Downsize Your Plates

This is a brilliant tip to help with portion control. In our world where everything seems to be SUPERSIZED, it's important to get back to the basics.

-Read nutrition labels. Check out what the intended serving size is and stick with it

-Use smaller plates at mealtime

Or check out this portion control plate!


-Share a meal when dining out, or plan to take half home

Enjoy your meals- just in smaller portions!

Five on Friday

ONE. Ok to Wake! Alarm Clock
Y'all....I have an early riser on my hands. She must get it from me, but I love need some quiet Momma time in the morning, so 6:05am is just not going to do Miss Peyton. Thank goodness we discovered this little dude- I set the timer for 7:00am, the light turns green, and P knows it's ok to come out of her room. It also has a separate nap timer. SCORE!
TWO. Office Renovations
We are almost done with the office! I feel like I've been working on it for half of my lifetime, and honestly-I'm losing steam. We just need to add the finishing touches and then we will actually have a complete room in this house!
Here's a sneak peek at some colors for the room :)



 THREE. Kroger Click List
My local Kroger just launched Click List- order groceries online, select a pickup time, then go to the store and SIT IN YOUR CAR while they load 'em up! The service is only $4.95 per trip, which is totally worth the convenience. (But your first 3 are free- so try it out!)


FOUR. Well Check-ups
The girls had their well visits at the pediatrician yesterday, and everyone left with a good report! What a blessing to have happy, healthy babes (who LOVE their peaches!)




FIVE. Date Night at The Fox
The husband planned a wonderful date night out last Sunday! We enjoyed dinner at a great little Italian restaurant (a place we visited on our Mini-Moon 6 years ago!) and The Wizard of Oz at The Fox. We don't do it nearly enough.


What are your faves on this gorgeous Friday morning?
