Full Swing Summer

By

It’s the longest day of the year – extra time for snuggling!

Camp Days

Mazen had fun filling out his whole calendar for the summer with camps and family trips. He takes after his mother : )

He doesn’t have to be at camp until 8:30 v. 7:10 for the school year at the bus stop and that extra hour was SO HELPFUL! The boys had smoothies and strawberries together before we left the house. (I had coffee before and breakfast after we got back home!)

Breakfasts

Cereal with berries

Daily Harvest Acai and Cherry smoothie

Oatmeal with almond butter + berries + granola

Workouts

On Monday I ran outside with Erica and our Bobs and babies and then we came inside and had smoothies and playtime. It was SO HOT for running at noon!

On Tuesday I went to Matt’s HIIT class and put Birch in Kids Zone. He did great – Mr. Smiles!

On Wednesday I went to strength class while Emily stayed with a sleeping Birch. My muscles were so tired after back to back gym days!

Look at these babies doing pushups and planks! They’ll be crawling soon.

Lunches

This boy LOVES to eat! He shoves all things into his little mouth and makes the cutest noises. I think his favorite this week was cornbread!

Pork + Thai salad

My favorite meal was Thomas’s smoked pork on top of the Plenty Thai peanut salad. SO GOOD!

Goat gouda + coconut + cornbread + grilled asparagus + yogurt

I love a fun tasting plate! And eating fresh coconut last week, Survivor style!

More Sparkly Flavors

Waterloo noticed my post about bubbles last week and sent me some of their flavors. They are great! I loved the Watermelon and Coconut.

Stormy Afternoons

The summer heat is back, daily afternoon storms included. This was my view at camp pickup during an insane severe thunderstorm complete with hail and sideways rain. I couldn’t get out of the car for 10 minutes until it calmed down to get Mazen from the camp bus!

Beachy Nails

I went with my mother in law to get our nails done. We got matching pink toes! This is my first time doing blue (for the ocean.) I think I like it!

Dinners

Smoked BBQ sammies + homemade slaw + zucchini

Plenty Tilapia + couscous salad + kale caesar

Family dinner at B.Good

B. Good invited us in to try out some summer menu additions. Thomas tried the BBQ chicken salad, and I had a tofu noodle bowl! Mazen loves the kids menu there, and we all shared a delicious vanilla milkshake to end the meal.

Key Lime Pie in a jar!!

Also from Plenty. So delish! + The Bachelorette.

I hope to see you guys from Bald Head Island next week!

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
