Adventures With Batman

^^Those two are so cute!!! School was out yesterday, so Sarah and I took the kids down to Short Pump. It’s our favorite little day-off field trip! The kids LOVE the giant play structure and change of scenery at the ACAC (our gym) there, and Sarah and I love the rooftop cafe and pool : )

Breakfast before we hit the road:

The drive is about 50 minutes and zooms by. Once the kids were settled, we did 26 minutes on the Stairmaster, 15 minutes of random weight lifting and ran a mile as fast as we could. We earned a little relaxation! Sadly the hot tub was closed for the day, but the pool was heated, so we took a nice little dip after lunch!

I ordered a grilled chicken and Swiss panini with a veggie cup on the side. Sarah had extra carrots and hummus for us to snack on.

After showers (the locker room there is like a spa!), we went over to the huge mall and let the kids run around a bit.

Mazen and I went into the Athleta store for a peek, and I ended up buying a few things! I was on the hunt for great shorts that I could sweat in all summer, and they have so many awesome options. Plus this cute skirt! Note the Batman shoes peeking out under the mirrors. This was one of the first times we’ve ever shopped together, and it was so much fun! M actually gave me his opinion on the clothes I tried on.

We headed to the children’s museum, which was right next door, for some play time after that. The kids loved all the stations!

Sarah and I found some bean bag chairs, aka the grown-up rest area 🙂

No idea what was happening here!

The ride home is always tough when everyone is tired, but some snacks helped!

Thomas had put a lasagna in the oven (from Mona Lisa Pasta) and we had that with salads for dinner.

I also had some of this – another “wine” mocktail. I like it better than the cranberry (which is SO TART) but this one is sweetened with more sugar, so it’s a pro and a con!

Talk to ya later friends!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
