Arm Smoker Workout + Our Holiday Cards

Hi, friends! How’s your Monday going so far?

Quinn is a napping machine today (who is this kid? I think Mimi has magical powers), so I had some extra time to create a pin-able workout, order our holiday cards, start dinner, and write this blog post. Hooray for naps!

So, this workout”¦ I am still sore from it, and I did it LAST Wednesday at CrossFit. Holy cow. It totally smoked my arms. The second set of push-ups, which I did on my knees, was insane. I was doing one rep at a time and doing that weird worm squirm to push myself up. My arms were absolutely spent. And, of course, the running made the whole thing even harder. It was awesome. Ha! I used 75 pounds for the Shoulder-to-Overheads.

This morning’s (first) breakfast: An egg sandwich made with bacon and Light Creamy Swiss from The Laughing Cow + iced coffee with SO Delicious eggnog. Mmm, it was so good. My favorite breakfast lately!

A couple of hours later, I headed to Whole Foods to do our grocery shopping for the week. This week’s meal plan:

• Sunday: Chicken noodle soup + grilled cheese sandwiches
• Monday: Crock Pot Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps
• Tuesday: American Chop Suey
• Wednesday: Crock Pot Chicken Tortellini Soup 
• Thursday: BLTs with steamed broccoli
• Friday: Leftovers
• Saturday: Out to dinner

Second breakfast: Sauteed kale, roasted sweet potatoes, scrambled eggs + buffalo sauce.

I love our holiday cards this year! Yay! And Quinn’s expression totally cracks me up. Haha! FYI: Our holiday cards are from Minted.
