Lunges and squats are your best bet.
Squats, performed deep (meaning you decline to a point where your butt is lower than your knees) will emphasize your glutes (butt) and hamstrings.
Lunges are probably the best exercise for overall leg development, and they are especially suited for targetting your glutes. One way to recruit more of your glutes is to perform them on a platform, which increases your depth of motion and transfers the emphasis off from your quads (the front of you legs), to your butt.
Lunges can be performed with a barbell across your shoulders, dumbbells or in a Smith machine. Dumbbell variations can include performing them stationary (meaning you lunge in place) or walking, which also improves your balance and the stablizer muscles like your adducters and abductors (inner and out thigh muscles.) I'm partial to the walking lunges for this reason, although they are challenging and require you to lighten up on the weight.
I've included links below. Aim to do three sets of 8-12 reps with a weight that doesn't allow you to do more than this range of reps. As they become easier to do, up your weight.
Best of luck!

To the people who thinks that she's saying a big butt is bad, she isn't. She said her butt isn't round, which means its probably a lil' flat and she wants to round it out and tone it. I don't think she's hating on big butts.
But for home you have to get some dumb bells may 10 to 25lbs. and do squats like this link to this pic, up and down. Start with 4 sets of 15 reps then go up by 5 every two weeks, 2 to 3 times a week up to 4 reps of 25. If your not sore and sweating then your not really burning you can get some cheap dumbells at a sports store:

Lunges are a great way to tone your butt and give it a lift. Squats are good also.
You can do both these exercises at home even if you dont have weights and it gets too easy without em you can fill upa couple shopping bags with cans and hold that while you lunge and squat.

you have each and every top to call her via her call a individual who gets the call of mum is a individual who cares and protects you from harm no longer inflicts it. i know the variety you sense i exchange into acctually superb associates or so i assumed with my in regulations til my husband had an affair and then impulsively i exchange into no longer something yet a vindictive B because day one and had they had to be around me that they had have cheated too. human beings may well be far greater 2 confronted than u can ever think of. in the adventure that your husband loves you he needs to pay attention you do no longer could desire to take a seat there and be riticuled and if his kinfolk can no longer admire you than u could desire to decide on if yoou can shelter no longer attending their kinfolk gatherings. it particularly is greater risky to bypass or to stay away. i think of counilling may well be something u and your husband could desire to discover so as which you will get proffesional help and guidence. good luck

squats, squats and more squats. Once you get over how painful they are on their own, start doing them with weight. Nothin's easy! :)
