TUESDAY:
Started the morning running errands then went to the outdoor class with my daughter then to the indoor play area. Met up with a friend there to catch-up. After picking up my son we came home and worked on my daughter's first lego set. We add a different room every other day.
And once again I was able to fit in a workout while they had their dinner. Since I did upper body Monday, I did lower body. Well needless to say today I can barely sit and stand. I love it though.
What is so cool is my muscles just remember the workouts so I can do them with ease which is great.
And my 'Fresh Start' is going great. The juices are out of this world delicious and the tiny meals are surprisingly filling and I am not hungary. I do drink 2 liters of water so that helps as well.

Object of Lesson


Yesterday's super casual look was inspired by Bee from Atlantic Pacific:

Super simple and casual but I need some outfits like these when I want to take it super easy...



Denim Jacket - H&M
Top and Coated Jeans - Forever 21
Sneakers - Converses

MONDAY:
Went to my son's school this morning to watch him get an Award. Every kid gets an award once throughout the year and they do these mini ceremonies to reward the kids. But each reward is customized and written by the teacher elaborately so it is very nice. And the principal comes to each and everyone and reads the rewards out loud.
My son's reward was overall Academic Excellence. He acts like he doesn't care but you can tell he really does. So cute.
After we went to my daughter's school. Then it was off to 'Whole Foods' for grocery and cleansing juice shopping. This week I am going to do a 3 day juice and fresh food nutrition plan and next week a 3 day all juice plan. Whole Foods sells all the juices I needed and all other ingredients  I needed like chia seeds and flax seeds and coconut oil etc….
I am also starting strength training and giving cardio a bit of a break. Going to come up with my own program mixing P90X, Insanity and T25 workouts. Doing something different everyday motivates me. Plus I started sneaking in the workouts early evening before the kids go to bed. My son likes to watch or join and hopefully it sets a good example.

My Easter Sunday brunch outfit was inspired by Who What Wear site:

SUNDAY:
Had a lovely brunch with my best friend and her family and my mom and her sister joined us so we were a nice size group. The hotel was not obviously big on egg hunt as there were very few kids but there still was an egg hunt. Although my son was upset he didn't get enough eggs this year so I need to get them stuff next year so he doesn't feel left out.
After the brunch we went direct to my friend's house for a swimming playdate and BBQ. I had packed all the suits and towels and we had a very relaxing afternoon as the kids swam away in the pool.
OF course though with all these fun activities during the weekend nothing got done at the house and starting the week with so many chores that need to be done now…
