Baby update: we are 14 weeks and 6 days today. Starting to feel/look thicker around my middle and jeans are feeling tighter.



Workout update: I've been walking a lot but still haven't ran since the Ragnar *keep your eyes open for that update!* Yesterday I decided to do a weights workout and used the "Diary of a Fit Mommy: Belly Only Workout" pregnancy workouts.


I did

Standing Side Crunches 3 x20
Barbell Side Bends 3 x10
Dumbbell Elbows to Knees Side Crunch 3x10
Air Squats *ass to grass* 3x10

Modified Wood Choppers 3x10
Tricep Kickbacks 3x10
Bicep Curls 3x 20
Air Squats *ass to grass* 3 x10

Barbell Shoulder Presses 3 x10
Weighted Internal/External Rotation 3 x15
Barbell Skull Crushers 3 x10
Air squats *ass to grass* 4 x10

And let me tell you...
I. AM. FEEEEELIN' IT.

My whooooole body is sore. I hadn't realized how weak I'd allowed my back/obliques to get. I will definitely be repeating this!!

May?!

5-1-17 Holy guacamole, it's May!! How is this possible. Baby Update: Tomorrow will be 18 weeks! Also, I think I felt the baby move this morning! *it felt like gas, but very different* I'm still fitting into nearly everything I own but prefer to wear good ole' elastic when I can! Workout Update: I counted in my planner 18 days out of 30 in April, that I worked out. Many of the workouts were way less strenuous than I would have counted before, such as playing 9 holes of golf, taking a lunch time walk, etc. Overall I am pleased with how much I did, especially when I felt sluggish most of the time. This month I want to increase how many times a week I do weights (at least 2 for starts!!). I'd also like to swim about 2x a week. The extra day needs to be cardio! In random news, I'm playing with the idea of starting a sensory necklace/jewlery/toys online shop. I would sell chewy necklaces to mothers with teething babies, pacifier chains, chewy toys and...

30 Minute Full Body Workout

5/2/17 I had a long break from work today so I managed to come home, do a few things around the house and knock out a 30 minute full body workout in the backyard! Squats x 10 Weighted Side Leans x15      ------ Repeat x3 Bicep Curls x15 Deadlifts x15 Weighted Overhead Pulls x10  ------ Repeat x3 Tricep Kickbacks x12 Lunges, each leg x10 Modified Woodchoppers x10  -------Repeat x3 Skull Krushers x12 It's amazing how small things wear me out! I had to hold on to our patio furniture to do the lunges! I took frequent water breaks and made sure I was out of the sun. I also took a 30 minute walk on my lunch break along the Trinity River which was great in helping me get all my steps in today!

Chewy Necklaces

5/7/17 Made a few of those chewy necklaces I talked about last time! Super easy to make and a great way to kill time!  We had a party for one of the brothers on Friday and here's a picture of me with my sister in law.  She's 6 weeks ahead of me sooooo... 24-ish weeks? Raz's candidate won his race! So he's napping until church today and I'm sitting around trying to figure out ways to make more $$! I'm frustrated by my lack of OT work, but know that it's all in God's hands. He's provided so much for us and this is how I am learning to lean on and trust Him for everything.
