2 Totally Awesome Years!

On July 23rd Mikey and I celebrated 2 fun years of marriage together! We were horrible at taking pictures so I made my mom and Mike's mom take a few pictures of us that Sunday. Friday night we celebrated by swimming and eating dinner at Macaroni Grill. Saturday Mike had to work but got off early so we enjoyed some more swimming, lunch at The Pie with Jeph and Venita and we watched Valentines Day which I thought was hysterical! Mike enjoyed it but I certainly enjoyed it MUCH more! On Sunday we had dinner at the Bailey/Simmons where Lynn planned an Anniversary Dinner for me and Mike, Jeph and Venita and John and Jaelyn! We all have our anniversaries within a couple weeks of each other. It was a wonderful meal, thank you Lynn! Monday I took the day off work and Mikey doesn't work Monday's so what did we do?! We went swimming of course, went to the doctors and heard our little guys heart beat and had a picnic at Murray Park! I have to say swimming is the BEST while pregnant, oh my goodness if you are pregnant and you haven't done this, PLEASE DO!
So those were our adventures for our 2 years of wedded awesomeness, it was a nice little stay-cation if you will!

My mom thought it would be fun for Mike to dip me....I think it was more fun for her than either of us but I still think it's a fun picture!





The Anniversary group minus John, so Ethan sat in for his dad, what a good kid!!

I'm in love!

I hope I don't jynx myself here!
I have been very fortunate with my pregnancy in that I do not have any stretch marks. Jill didn't them either buy mom did so not sure where credit is due, but I use this Palmer's cocoa butter faithfully! I tried the stretch mark lotion and couldn't handle the smell so I went with this! I still have 8 weeks left and only time will tell if I will truly be fortunate in this department. I just have to stand proud for now, afterall, I got big fast, mutiple people have asked if I am expecting twins and yes they were serious. My sweet niece Mae informed me that her neighbor just had a baby and wasn't as big as me, I was told the same thing from a client! Anyway, doc assured me I look great and the weight I have gained is right where it should be and to punch anyone that asks is I'm having twins! So forgive me for boasting about my absense of stretch marks but gosh darn it I'm proud!
Now after reading this you would do me the kind favor and knock on some wood so I don't jynx myself, I'd greatly appreciate it!

More of the Belly

I have yet to actually finish doing my pregger photo's, we're thinking maybe next week. The weather is finally nice and I'm getting my hair done this week so maybe that will boost the confidence as my belly has continued to grow large and in charge!
Anyway here at a few more from our fun photo session :)











If things go as planned the next ones will be taken outside and Mikey will be in a few too!

Sneak Peak

I'm only posting one picture for now until I have them all and Shelley is ok with me posting them! I figure a sneak peak wouldn't do any harm! We were able to do indoor ones yesterday but the rain didn't allow for some fun outside ones, so pray for some good weather so we can finish these up!

Do I work out?

Ummm yea, duh of course I workout. Let me break it down for you:

1. I walk, speed walk actually 10+ times a day to the restroom.
2. I do squats. Woman don't pee standing up!
3. I lift weights. Go grab a 10lb bowling ball, hold it in front of your belly and just stand there for 10 minutes and tell me you didn't start to hurt somewhere, anywhere in your body.
4. I sweat. I wake up nightly sweating, not just "Oh I'm a little warm" it's more like if I had more desire I should change my clothes from sweating.
5. I laugh. Laughing is a good Abdominal workout in my book. Try laughing more, you'll feel super tone and sexy.
6. I climb....stairs daily. I think there's 14 steps in the stairway, I do that a couple times a day at least, sometimes with light loads of laundry.
7. I stretch, stretching is great for your muscles and eases my mind at night in hopes that I don't wake up with charlie horses. NOT FUN.
8. I eat small meals. Eating small meals boosts metabolism. I eat lots of small meals. lots.
9. I wear heels. I know, I know, not the greatest but hey...works out my calves right?! I have to do extra stretching on heel days. (refer to #7)
10. I'm a soccer coach. Multiple times a day our little Jer Bug holds his own little soccer practices. Who better to coach him then the womb landlord!

And there you have it. Pretty good workout schedule if you ask me. Oh and one more...
my arms get a nice work out hold up baby clothes and toys that I come across and say ..."aaaaaw our little guy needs that!" As we draw closer to due day and the showers pour in I think my arms will get a nice sexy toning workout!
