Time flies! Especially when working out.

Oh crap, where has the time gone?  I recently joined my local YMCA (kind of funny as I’m rather agnostic/atheist) and have been doing a good job of going at least 3 times a week.

I love having that kid-free time in the morning. I drop L off at the daycare there and get to spend some time rockin’ out to music and reading a book on my Nook while using the treadmill. Definitely makes the rest of the day go by better. And hopefully will help my much-needed weight loss (which needs to be its own post, methinks). Working out has also been helping my moods. I decided to use MyFitnessPal to track food and exercise and I’m hoping it will pay off.

And in other news, I can’t wait for my 2nd Wittlebee box to get here. Supposed to be delivered today. Will have to post the goods when it gets here.

Pinterest Activity: Contact Paper Art

I’m a crazy Pinterest freak. Love love love it. I know others have gotten over it, but I still haven’t.

I pinned this contact paper collage activity from Play Create Explore. It was a link off a post about activities to do with 1-4 year olds. Linnea had a lot of fun with it as I just grabbed a few things from the craft shelves.

Just grabbed construction paper and quickly cut out shapes.

Here we added glitter, foam shapes, stickers, and craft sticks.

All in all, a quick and cheap activity with a minimum amount of mess. Win.
