Changes

I'm back :) and now that our news is out I can blog without having to make up little white lies about why I'm not training...LOL!!

There are lots of changes happening, some that I'm not happy about and that are out of my control but that I just have to stay positive about and see the positive side of them. These are related to my job and career but I won't go into details since it's not good to talk about work on a public blog. So just keep me in your thoughts and hopefully things will all work out.

The other changes I'm super excited about :) okay, maybe not the part about gaining the weight I finally lost but at least this time I'm gaining it for a good reason. Rocky and I found out on November 28th that we are expecting our first baby and we couldn't be more excited. I'm feeling pretty good now that I'm entering into the 2nd trimester. As most pregnant woman, I've had the crazy symptoms but luckily not all hit me at once and not all hit me for to long. I'm ready for whatever is next.

I will try to update once a week on how we are doing.

Other than that things are pretty good. Rocky's training is ramping up quickly as they head into week 14 as well of Ironman training. He's loving it and I love being able to support him especially in the cooking and keeping him fed department :)

I stopped running/working out back in October and was finally cleared to resume a few weeks ago. Although I was told I could keep running I've decided not to for now. I've been walking a lot and I've been working out at home with all the various equipment we have. It feels good to work out again.

So here is a little update on the munchkin and I

How far along? 14 weeks

Baby's size? Per babybump.com the baby is the size of a Lemon and 3.4 inches and approx 1.5 oz.

Weight Gain? None

Stretch marks? No

Belly button in or out? Still in

Sleep? Sleep is much better than the first few weeks but I’m still getting up 3-4 times a night to go to the bathroom :(

Foods I am loving? Water with lots of ice, Chinese Chicken Salad, Frozen Yogurt w/Mango, Strawberries and Kiwi

Foods I am hating? Beef, beans and anything that is too sweet

What I miss? Diet Coke, Salami and Sushi

Milestone? Starting the 2nd Trimester

What I'm looking forward to? Seeing our little munchkin next week and going to our first pre-natal class.

YAY! Love the mommy/munchkin update!

I'm keeping my fingers (and toes) crossed that everything work related ends up working out. Sometimes change that starts out bad can end up being good so keep up that positive outlook!
