I have the best hubby...

It's here!!! While I was in Vegas last week, our rocker came in! When I got home, Jeff had already set it up in the nursery. So I came home to that AND.......
he bought me THE diaper bag. I have had my eye on this thing since I first found out I was pregnant. He bought it for me while I was on my trip and it was waiting for me when I arrived home. What a sweetie!

What a Week!!!

Arbonne had their annual National Training Conference in Vegas this past week. What an incredible company! I am so proud to be a part of this!!
Me and my cousin Sara. So proud that she is on my team and that we are on this journey together.


After the product launch at the product store. We got to try out all the new products! Clinically proven results in 24 hours...YES!!!
This is me in the Mercedes I have picked out for when I go Region...I'll have it in a few short months!!!!
Some of my team at Arbonne's National Training Conference! Love them all!!!

Blah!

I am definitely an all or nothing person. When I am committed to doing something there is very little that can come in the way of it and I am having the hardest time staying motivated to workout during this pregnancy. I usually am pretty good about going to the gym daily and getting cardio and even some weight training in. When I first got pregnant, well actually the first trimester of this pregnancy, I was extremely sick and a day did not go by that I wasn't nauseous or throwing up. I felt like I had a pretty good excuse to not be active, as where the slightest movement made we want to lose the little bit of lunch I had been able to stomach. I do not have that excuse now!!! I feel GREAT! I have tons of energy and have NO problem eating, so what's my hang up? Back to the all or nothing side of me, when I do work out, I like to feel like I have worked out, I work out hard and I guess part of me is just scared of overdoing it...? I have read all the books/blogs websites about how working out is great during pregnancy but not to over do it. What if I over do it? Did any of you have a hard time staying motivated? If so, what did you do to re-motivate? I refuse to be that person that gains 90 pounds during their pregnancy... I do not want to have a hard time losing the weight afterward either, even if it is only 8 pounds. HELP!!! I need encouragement!

This week...

Sunday marked 19 weeks for my pregnancy. I can't believe it is already half way over! It really has gone by so fast! This stage of pregnancy is definitely smooth. I am not sick anymore, I have adjusted from sleeping on my tummy, to using a body pillow which is quite comfortable, my energy is back and I can actually clean house without feeling like I have run a marathon, I am learning to embrace the belly and love comfy maternity clothes. Life is good!
Emry always enjoys the weather. She particularly loves the snow and ice but rain is a close second. This is what I found 15 minutes after I let her out...

SPRING!!!

Ok so today will be a good day and I will tell you why:

1. I bought a cantaloupe( my repetitive summer love) at Crest and it is YUMM-O!!!

2. I got a lot of sleep last night

3. I went out to check the mail and let the dog do his business and the SUN IS OUT!!!

4. We get to eat Shiki tonight for dinner(our favorite)

Just so you know, this is probably my first post that isn't about baby. I promise I do try to think and talk about other things but it's crazy how a baby can completely consume your life before it is even born!!!

I hope everyone has a happy Tuesday! Get some sun!

Let the planning...continue:)

This is the nursery before.
Here is the nursery after I painted it( sorry for the bad lighting)
Here is the color pallete we are using for baby Cale's room. Mom, dad and Sonya came into town Saturday and we used that time for us ladies to figure out exactly what we are doing with all of it. We purchased all the fabric, so let the sewing begin!! My mom is making the bumper pad, blanket, bed skirt, and curtains...I MIGHT attempt to help with the pillows. I don't want to screw up her masterpiece. YAY! Baby Cale, I know you will not appreciate any of the work that goes into this HUGE project, but your mother will. Your mother has also tried to realize that you will probably spit up, pee on and slobber all over the crushed velvet and chenille...it's ok, I will still love you.

The crib and rocker are on their way. The rocker should be here in about 3 weeks and the crib will be another 4-6 weeks.

Worry?

This morning I had my monthly OB appointment. I was excited to talk to her about the ultrasound that we had done on Monday. Of course, when we first went in, it was the routine weight, pee in a cup, pulse,etc. Dr. Palmer asked if I had questions, asked how I was feeling and so forth. She asked if we found out boy/girl and let her know about the name we have picked out. She then told me that everything looked good with baby but the radiologist was concerned about my level of amniotic fluid. He thought it was too low and wants me to have another ultrasound in 4 weeks. Experienced mommies, did any of you have this problem? I am nervous about it but in a way excited, because I get to see baby again. I welcome your thoughts:)
