Good Morning <3
Hope the weekend treated you right, it treated me sore. My booty and calves are screaming from Insanity, but its a good hurt, so Im embracing it very well. Im ready for day 2 tomorrow and the whole 59 days left, eeek!
{True or False }
You know how it goes, so here are some for today…
True or False…
I am not a night time snacker.
False, I totally am and usually it’s a protein pudding mixture or cottage cheese with all natural fruit jam lately.
True or False…
Im from Pittsburgh so I bleed black and gold.
False, I may be from here BUT I bleed pink and glitter. My day is NEVER ruined if the Steelers lose, Im just not that person, I get depressed about things that are meant to be depressed over, not a sports team loss.
True or False…
My son likes to make stupid faces now when I take pics.
True, as you can see his beautiful face in this photo above. Welcome pre-teen years 
True or False…
There was sawdust in my smoothie in a bowl this morning.
False, I added wheat germ with cinnamon flaxseed in it, great healthy addition to my bowl.
True or False…
Cab drivers are the SAFEST drivers in the world!
FALSE! The text Mike and I shared while in the back of a cab in Chicago shows that is not true, lol.
True or False…
My parents, aunt, and uncle are guests on the Jerry Springer Show today.
Hmmm could be a TRUE or FALSE!
They are actually at the show today in the audience to watch a live taping, but not on the show. Now, if you know my family and how crazy we all really are, we could MOST definitely be on that show, lol! Its actually not funny, so why am I laughing?! I just want to confirm and be real, my family puts the “fun” in dysfunction.
Love them though so much! I just hope they are not guests, and someone was not setting them up, haha! Its actually my Uncle’s 50th birthday so they went for that and for a little 3 day getaway.
Happy Monday and good Monday vibes being sent to all of YOU!
Im off to get grocery shopping done, and Im excited to share a little change in someone’s eating here in the house! I will tell you guys later and share too.
{Questions of the Day}
Did you ever watch the Jerry Springer Show and think it was fake? Or real?
What was your breakfast today, healthy or not so healthy?

A little poem to put happiness in your day…
Happiness uplifts me,
Happiness fills my heart, my mind, and my soul,
Happiness gives me the strength I need,
Happiness is a good feeling that enters my mind each day.
Happiness takes my sadness away,
Happiness fills my eyes with joy,
Happiness makes me excited and thrilled
Happiness warms my heart and soul each day.
Happiness gives me a sense of relief each day,
Happiness welcomes me each morning when I get up,
Happiness can be seen in my eyes.

this post made me smile! fun
Im glad! Happy Monday girl!
Good luck with the insanity challenge! Those workouts are no joke!
Carter is already doing the whole “funny faces” when I take pictures. I’ll say smile and he’ll tilt his head, close his eyes,and make the goofiest smile possible. So now I have to try and capture more “natural” moments 
Happy Monday
Thanks Lindsay, oh it is tough! Great challenge!
Happy Monday!
i loved this post! and cute poem too! happy monday! x
Thanks Kerry! Hope you are doing great girl! xoxo <3
A possible blog name the happiness blog since you always radiate it.
Breakfast was yummy, oatnight oats with chia seeds, greek yogurt & hershey’s special dark cocoa. Along with the obligatory cup of coffee with almond milk. 
I just got done with Insanity day 2, holy moly the end with the burpees was killer but feel amazin’ afterwards. Thanks for being a healthy inspiration Katie, have a good Monday! 
I like that name ; )
Oh I told you it was intense! I was so glad when it was over, haha! Im so proud of you! We can do this! I know it!!!
Happy monday love! <3
Love the texts! lol
Cab rides are one of my most vivid Chi town memories and I was only in fifth grade at that time! My breakfast was healthy! Breakfast cookie dough cereal–I’m just slightly obsessed lately.
Oh breakfast cookie doug cereal, I have seen that on fitnessista’s blog but never tried!
Have a happy Monday love!
Eating breakfast and reading your blog makes for a great morning any day! Today my breakfast consisted of a bowl of Kellogg’s FiberPlus(R) Cinnamon Oat Crunch, a small apple, and a dish of Greek yogurt topped with fresh strawberries. It was delicious!
I’m definitely a night time snacker. I’m trying to control it though! I think all families are dysfunctional…some just try to hide it
I hope your fam has fun!
Yeah, some do! Not mine, haha!
I’m also definitely a night time snacker. Oh, who am I kidding… I’m an all-day snacker
I love my raw veggies!
My breakfast this morning was a small banana before the gym, and then overnight oats (with TJ’s greek yogurt, almond milk, and Hershey’s special dark cocoa powder) topped with Just Cranberries (love Whole Foods, don’t love how expensive it is!) and some Kashi cereal. Perfect post-workout fuel
I love raw veggies too! I snack on those a lot with hummus <3
Your breakfast sounded amazing! Happy Monday girl!
haha true or false…i heart you? TRUE!!!!!!!!! hahaha i think the steelers should change their colors to pink black & gold just for you…
They should, and with glitter ; )
I can’t believe your family is going to watch the Jerry Springer Show! Mainly because I can’t believe that show is still on! I watched it from time to time as a teenager and cannot believe that guy is still going. Haha, I guess there’s no shortage of crazy guests to choose from (not referring to your family, of course!)
How do you make protein pudding? This I must know – always looking for protein snacks, particularly to fill that late-night snacking need!
Oooh…cinnamon flaxseed wheatgerm sounds awesome! I have cocoa berry flaxseed in my oats this morning! Clearly flax is where it’s at, lol!
