Neighborhood Christmas Party

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

Catch up....

This has been my mode of action this week...catch up from Disney. Sleep, laundry, CHRISTmas to do list....party planning, shopping...you name it! BUT WHAT FUN WE HAD!!
More to come once the "fairy dust" settles!



One thing I can say is that I'm keeping up with my workouts! At least 5 days a week....even with the CRAZY TO-DO LIST!
Don't kid yourself and skip out...you need the STRESS releif, your body needs to MOVE and burn calories, and you'll FEEL SO MUCH BETTER!!! STAY FOCUSED til the end of the year!!!
Happy Sweating !

GREAT NEWS!

I got a wonderful pre-Thanksgiving blessing this past Wednesday!! We had ANOTHER ultrasound to check on the "bleeding" and it's GONE!!! So the "reduced" exercise and "no weight lifting" WORKED!!! I can come back to "normal" exercise with "medium" weight lifting....WOO HOO! GOD is GOOD all the time!
Truly, I haven't let myself grow "too attached" as a means of "protecting my feelings", but everything is "NORMAL" at this point!

When I saw the baby moving (flipping and kicking) and there were NO SIGNS of bleeding I started to cry...a HUGE weight was LIFTED off my heart and shoulders...and I felt this little baby literally FILL my heart! We have another ultrasound planned for Dec 23rd to check on things...and of course FIND OUT the sex!

For now LIFE is good...and about to get even better...tomorrow we head for SUNNY FLORIDA! DISNEYWORLD here we come!
Can't wait to see the boys faces when they see MAGIC KINGDOM!

Hope everyone had a WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING!!! Know get back to the EXERCISE routine and eating HEALTHY foods!

Here are my boys LOVING hanging out with their second cousins! The girls maybe not "loving" it as much!

THE BENEFITS of EXERCISE while PREGGO!

Exercise is WONDERFUL for you at ANY PHASE of your life....but especially while expecting a bundle of joy. I am 13 1/2 weeks along with my 3 child and of course I'm exercising!! However, I've had to "tone it down" these last few weeks due to a complication (no worries baby is fine....just need to get SCH (bleeding in uterus) to GO AWAY! It's been there since 6 weeks...which is why I couldn't run the half marathon I trained for on 10-10-10! It reduced in size signficantly while not running and decreasing weights in bodypump...but it is STILL THERE. So... I've been told to SLOW DOWN and NOT PUSH IT! EASY to say...but HARD to DO! It's been 10 days...and I've just taught 3 classes....doing LOW IMPACT OF COURSE and MORE MOTIVATING than SWEATING...but PRAYING on Wednesday the ultrasound will SHOW that it's GONE! Ready to get back to "normal"!
So... are you getting your SWEAT SESSIONS IN??? If not... do one for me...PLEASE!!! IF you are expecting...check out this article of the BENEFITS (as I've been missing them)!
Hoping you are well!
