Challenge groups

Tomorrow is the start of my first challenge group! I am so excited to share a sneak peek into the fantastic community I have become a part of. I had 15 people join, which I think is a good number considering I opened up 20 spots and there is still to the end of the day.

A challenge group is really what kept me motivated while doing workouts at home and they still do. Seeing everyone encouraging each other and posting their own struggles and achievements. Giving pointers, tips and new ideas. Being able to have a place to go when the people in real life judge your journey or make comments (unfortunately that will happen).

And when that does happen, brush aside those negative comments and remember why you have decided to take this journey, FOR YOU! To make your life better, to be a better person, to encourage your family, to just be a better you all around. Because that's what's going to happen.

And if anyone wants join me on this journey (along with a whole bunch of other driven people) I will have a new challenge group every month!

I'm pregnant!

I've been keeping it a secret for a little while now. We are so very excited, but also so very nervous. We went for our third ultrasound today and everything looks "excellent". That is a direct quote from our doctor! The heart rate was 185, up from 140 three weeks ago! I'm 10 weeks, so we have a little while before we find out if we are having another girl or a little boy. Since our daughter was born at 21 weeks from my lovely incompetent cervix, I just love that name, but I guess it gets the point across, I will be getting a cervical cerclage at 15 weeks. He described it like this, " Have you ever had one of this draw string purses? It's pretty much like that". HAH! Whatever as long as it holds this little baby in there! The surgery will be December 17th. I'm a litter nervous and I'm sure I'll be a lot nervous as the date gets closer, but I will do whatever it takes! Today our little baby was moving around a lot in there and was showing off ...

Rewind

I take back what I said yesterday. My life is not going back together...I kind of had a break down at work today. After that post yesterday, it all started going downhill. Can we say rollarcoaster much? ugh! When will I be "normal" again? I know I will never be the person I was a year ago, which is fine...but, when will all of the... I'm good.... Not so good.... I think I could curl up and die.... Oh, no I'm alright.... Why can't I have my daughter... Oh, no I can handle looking at a baby.... Get that baby away from me... stop?

Silly faces

Elliot already has many silly faces that she makes. Like this one... I think she is already practicing the clueless look of "I didn't do it!". I don't know how I am going to scold a cute face like that. I am sure when I have crayon all over my living room wall it will be much easier. This is the look of, "Mom, that flash is way too bright!". This next one is one of my personal favorites... It says, "Yeah, I'm cute. So what?". And last, but not least... "Listen to me scream!" Gee, I wonder where she got it from?

The little time we have...
