Workout Day 1

Today is day 1 of my commitment to health and exercise. I am finally ready to whip this body back into shape. I have bought the clothes, plus I have created to a schedule so I can devote more time to myself. Since I am a homemaker, I do find it hard to get to the gym so I am starting off slow with the Black Girls Workout DVD. For the next 21 days I will give weekly updates on my progress. Hopefully, this new lifestyle change will increase my energy!

Living room Inspiration

When I saw this living room on One King Lane I fell in love. Finally, a room I could relate to, and fit into my lifestyle. I am currently in the process of transforming my house into a home. I am in the painting stages now and plan to use this living room as my muse. I will be using different textures and patterns but same concept. I just got a new couch so I'll be putting to together a mood board based on this awesome design.

New Music + Spoitfy

I have been running around decorating my house the past few months and it has been a lot harder than I thought, especially with a newborn and toddler. So, music has been my savior. Here are some albums I have been listening to lately. 

Curb Appeal Refresh

So, I have been low key the past week because I have been redoing my front yard. We moved into our house five years ago, it was so shiny and new! Over the years with floods, theft, and kids, its been tough to keep everything looking that way. But I have a new mission. While I am home, I am going to redo different areas of our home each month. Even though May has past, I am refreshing our front and back yard to added more curb appeal since its the first thing you see when you visit our house.

This what I will be doing:
1. Repainting the porch pale grey 2. New mailbox 3-5. Adding a plants to the porch
6. Refreshing light post.... I'm also adding some mulch in the backyard too. Everything is coming along nicely, I should be done this week. I'll post pictures when I'm done!

Prince Tshirt Collection

I have been taking a break from crafting but I miss it a lot. Meeting new people from participating at urban markets and shows was a lot of fun. So, I decided I needed to start being creative again. Even though I have a lot going on, I still need a creative outlet. But, this time I will only sale a few select items because I want to be the best at one thing and not just good at many things.

So, when deciding what to craft, I thought long and hard about what was lacking when I went shopping. The one thing that kept coming up was clothing for my little boys. I can never find cute clothes for them. By the time I make it to Old Navy, Gap, or Children's Place they have completely sold out of their size. Plus, I want clothes for them that are unique enough to where every toddler is not wearing them. Right now, I am in the beginning stages of starting a t-shirt collection for infants up to toddlers. My goal is to be ready to enter some smaller shows in the fall. So get ready for the PRINCE COLLECTION!

Look who turned 2 months today

My little man is growing so fast. He is two months old today! Maverick has such a mellow personality is the exact opposite of Dominic. Its funny to see them interact with each other but I'm happy because they are in the "I love my brother" stage hopefully it lasts a while.

Best Meatloaf Ever!

Ok, I saw this meatloaf on Pinterest and I had to try it. It did not disappoint, it was awesome so I wanted to share this with everyone. And I even took the leftovers and made sandwiches out of them. YUM! I found the recipe on 4men1lady.com, its really simple to make and I even added onions and mushrooms like she suggested.

Affordable Workout Clothes

My fitness journey has been in full swing for about a week and I am happy to report I have lost 2 pounds. To keep up my motivation, I decided to get some new kicks similar to the ones below. But, what would cute kicks be without cute clothes to match. I found these awesome deals at Old Navy, Nike and Adidas. I have made a bet without myself for every ten pounds lost I get a new outfit. So I'm only eight pounds away from a new fit:)
