Kettlebell workout!

Just got my new workout DVD in the mail.  $4.99 on Amazon!  Bob Harpers kettlebell cardio shred.  It was a really good work out.  I think its about a 40-45 minute workout.  It's a full body workout that does a lot of arms, legs, cardio and sit ups.  I had to skip some of the workout.  All you need is a kettlebell to do the workout.  You can get pretty cheap ones at walmart.  I used a fifteen pound kettlebell.  I'm probably not going to do it again until after I have the baby, I think I'll stick to walking.    I love all of Bob's workout DVDs, I have never done one of his workout DVDs wtihout being sore the next day.  They are definitely worth trying.




Dinner and Dessert

  This past weekend we went hiking on Saturday.  The weather is so perfect right now, I love it.  I hope Summer never comes.



Yep, I am huge.  I was breathing so hard on this hike!



Here is a favorite dinner that I make usually once a week.

Vegetarian Enchiladas
