Quick Love Handle Workout




I have the love handles and the muffin top plus some!
There are so many different exercises out there that you can do.
Give some of these a try, it's a 10 minute workout, so you
can fit it into a busy schedule or add it to your routine.

Woodchoppers
You want to do 40 of these, 20 on each side.
Using on hand weight, stand with your feet hip
width apart with your weight on your left leg.
Start by holding the weight in both hands up by
your left shoulder. Next, twist to make a chopping
motion down towards your right hip. Allow your feet
and knees to pivot with the twist. Raise the weight
back up to your left shoulder, repeat for 20 reps and
then work on your right side.

Russian Twists
You want to do 50 of these, sit on your butt with your
knees bent and feet flat on the ground. Your torso should
be leaning back at a 45 degree angle to the floor.
Hold a dumbbell with both hands. Lift your feet from the ground,
crossing them at the ankles and balancing your butt.
From this position, twist your torso to the right and
touch your dumbbell to the ground next to your body.
Next twist back over to the left touching the weight
to the left side of your body. Repeat back and forth,
all while balancing with your legs and torso
raised off of the ground.

Side Plank Hip Lifts 
You want to do a total of 30, 15 for each side.
Get into a side plank position with your elbow on the
ground and your legs and hips resting on the ground.
Engaging your abs and keeping your body in a straight line,
raise the lower half of your body up off the ground into
a straight plank position. Lower again and repeat.

Bicycle Crunches
Do 30 of these, lie on your back with your knees bent
and our hands behind your head. Do not clasp your hands
together. Engage your abs, lifting your shoulders and
upper back off of the ground. At the same time, move
your right elbow toward your left knee so that they
meet in the middle of your body. Next switch your
position by bringing your left elbow to your right knee.
Continue as quickly as possible while still keeping your
torso raised up off the ground.

DIY Tangled Inspired Paper Lanterns

  I am trying to pick some of the Disney movies a lot of kids love, for the week ahead. I love Tangled, I think the way they did it was great! I was always a huge Beauty & the Beast fan and while that will forever be my all time favorite the newer Disney movies are just awesome with the animation and the songs. I have a whole Disney playlist on my phone for Celeste and you guessed it Tangled is on there, that is one of her favorites as well. I found this DIY and knew I had to blog it that way when she is older we can make them together. Here's what you'll need: construction paper toilet paper rolls scissors glue crayons Create: First, put construction paper around the toilet paper roll. Measure the construction paper and cut it to fit to size. It doesn't have to be perfect. On some of the rolls you can decide to add extra decorations. Like the Rapunzel sun and swirls before you glue it on to the toilet paper roll. Remember this ...
