Health, Wellness, and Life!

Okay everyone who had a fitbit or any other kind of activity watch you have either participated in one or know someone who has. I have entered into a couple different ones. But I tried a step challenge with my husband and it ended very quickly since it might have caused martial problems.... We are both way too competitive. But I decided I want to try and hit my step goal everyday. Of course the day I decided that I had a massive headache that I couldn't get rid of yesterday so I didn't hit my step goal but today is a new day!!! Yesterday we went over to a friends house that we will be house sitting for in a few months to get familiar with things and learn the routine. We will be doing this once a week until the time we stay there. It was really fun. My son enjoyed having a new place to explore! There was also a cat and my son has never been around a cat so it was new for him! This is our lunch time selfie!!  After that we went home for nap time and got to relax for...

It seems like every time you set a new goal and have a plan to accomplish them, everything seems to make sure those goals are not met.... Having a toddler is one of those obstacles....

I wanted to keep up with weight lifting, but there was just not a specific plan. So I decided that needed to change this week. After my run yesterday I just felt like I had so much energy all day. Which during pregnancy is saying something. Thats the hardest part is not feeling like you have energy. So I decided I liked having energy and wanted to keep that up. My mom and I are planning on starting training for the half marathon but haven't set the schedule yet. This morning we couldn't go running due to a couple of things. First thunderstorms were supposed to hit this morning. It ended up just ...

So this whole blogging thing is new to me. I get side tracked really easy and now with being 14.5 weeks pregnant I get baby brain as well! I am going to keep trying to blog more. I am not currently training for a race but my mom has a half marathon coming up in April, so I am going to be her training partner. I was so excited to find out I was pregnant, but I got some nausea along with it. That was the hardest part to try and get up and workout. I tried to get up and go but with it being cold outside and not feeling good I didn't push myself too hard. I wish that I could but that is something that I need to continue to work on. So today was the first day I got back out and ran. It was a gorgeous day first of all which helps me to want to get out and run. I wasn't really planning on running. I had my 1 year old in the stroller and I haven't trained with him before. I was planning on just walking and being outside and enjoying it. But as we got started I felt good and dec...
