I am so squishy!

I made a last-minute decision to go to Zumba this morning...and I am so glad I did! I miss being active. After I took Hannah to school, I went back up to the gym and did some weights. And that was even better! I am so ridiculously out of shape right now. I had a hard time doing 10 push-ups (hands on the bench...not floor). Seriously?! 10?! Nu-uh! I may be pregnant, but that doesn't mean I need to turn into a weak, squishy person.

So I am going to stick to what I said I would do. Yes, I can't do Zumba 5x a week. Dr said. But she also said I could continue with moderate activity as long as I feel ok. So that's my plan!

28 weeks

It's hard to believe I'm 2/3 thru this pregnancy. It seems like it has flown by. I keep worrying that by saying that, I'll wake up thinking "Is this baby ever going to come out?!" But so far, so good.

We found her crib, dresser, and a rocking glider w/ottoman. Now begins the task of fixing up my new bedroom so we can put her room together.

I have also decided, depending on who you are, you might not get to know the sex of the baby. I'm quite sick of the disappointed faces when I tell them we are having girl #3. And so far, my favorite response to those sad faces is, "No big deal...we're going to chain her up in the attic and try again.".

There's the belly. Week old shot...so sue me ;)

I am so missing exercise. I was lucky to teach last Friday, and the one before that...but tomorrow and next Friday I won't be able to, due to other commitments. I have also been slacking on doing anything at home on my own. My weights have dust on them, and I desperately need a proper stretch. I don't see that getting any better before the baby gets here...I have been so busy getting ready for her to get here, and doing all my favorite spring and summer activities. *sigh* Oh well. I will have time to do all that fun stuff again...one day......right?

So much has changed...

Well...my plans to Zumba hard to the very end have changed. Baby was sitting low, causing trouble. So I am done teaching, at least full time. I am hoping to drop in and teach a class here and there, which I am told is ok. I can also keep up with weights, just modified. I am also going to take a yogalates class 1-2 times a week.

So now my days are full of cleaning and preparing for little one's arrival :) I am missing my Zumba classes like CRAZY so I am looking forward to my first class in 2 weeks tomorrow morning. YEAH!
