11 Day Check-In

Today is day 11 of the 90 day challenge. As I was checking in at Momstoolbox, I realized that I am very proud of myself for taking this challenge and sticking with it.

I am not only learning about God and his word but, this experience is opening up more learning opportunities for my daughters. My 3 year old sees me reading the Bible and wants to read hers as well. We have started reading the stories in her children's Bible before she goes to bed at night.

Although I have gotten behind at times in my reading, I want to keep going and get caught back up. Right now I am where I am supposed to be!

I have found that for me it is easiest to read and really concentrate at night when my girls are in the bed. So, I will complete today's reading tonight when the little ones are asleep. I look forward to learn more from this challenge!

Such a Great Challenge!

I am so blessed to be a part of this awesome group of people, lead by Amy, taking the challenge to read the Bible in 90 days! Amy is our #1 cheerleader for this challenge. She is also taking the challenge with us but also cheering us on. She is awesome! Amy keeps up with her daily reading by blogging daily. To read about Amy's experience and some of the others in the group check out Amy's blog, Mom's Toolbox.

This program is become more and more popular. Amy was interviewed on HavenToday, which aired today, about her busy life and how she still takes time to encourage so many to follow her in this Bible in 90 Days challenge. Take a few minutes to listen to Amy's interview and get to know her and more about the program, click here.

#B90Days The Challenge Has Begun

As I posted in my last blog, I am taking part in the Cover to Cover in 90 days challenge with Amy at Mom's Toolbox. That is I am going to read the entire Bible, cover to cover in only 90 days! The challenge started January 1st. So we are already on day 5. This is awesome! I never thought that I could read the entire Bible! Although I didn't receive my program kit until January 2nd, I am doing well with the readings! I did get a little behind but as of now I am caught up!

At this point, I have already read Genesis, the first book in the Bible! WOW!!!

I am so excited to keep up with this program and challenge! I will complete the reading and I will learn more about the word of God! I can't wait to share my knowledge with my girls!

Wii Fit Workout Routine

I am sure by now that many of you know that I am a member of the awesome group

Sassy Sisters In Sales.

Well, one of the owners, Debbi, started a personal blog, My Journey of Changing Me, tracking her success and journey of her weight loss goals. She has encouraged many of her followers to start working out and working towards their weight loss goals. I am one that has taken on the challenge.

Debbi has introduced me, and many, to the Wii Fit Routine website.

Well, today starts my first day of workouts on the Wii Fit. I did the following 30 min weight loss routine.

My total workout time ended up being 31 minutes. I think I missed a minute on the balance game. But I am very happy with that as a start! Thirty-one minutes is great for me, especially since I don't normally workout or exercise!

After today's workout I feel great! I am excited to do this again tomorrow. I think with an actual routine to go by and someone to keep me motivated, thanks Debbi, I will keep this up and be able to reach my weight loss goals!
