1st trimester (almost) down

Wow Will I really be 12 weeks pregnant on Monday? Yes. I know time is going to fly with this pregnancy because I have my hands full! Tucker is in this new adorable always smiling and KEEPING ME BUSY stage. He loves to hold on to my fingers and have me walk him around. I mean when he whines I'm pretty sure that's all he wants. Although it really hurts my back to bend over and walk around like that, I do it and will always do it because it makes him happy :) Life is already changing now that Tucker is a little more independent and more mobile. He doesn't crawl yet, but he can scoot himself on his belly 360 degrees and grab toys, he is getting better at playing by himself so that gives me a little more time to do laundry and pick up the house a little better. We have started to put him in his high chair while we eat supper at the table and let him try some of the food we're eating, most of the time he enjoys it. Sometimes with his short attention span he hates to be in his highchair, so we put some puffs on the plate and let him make a mess, good thing we have a dog to clean it up.
As tired as I am ALL THE TIME, and as busy as I am ALL THE TIME (the to do list never ends) I am positive I am truly living the dream. Sitting at the dinner table the other night I looked at Josh looking at Tucker and I thought to myself "Life does not get better than this". We have an OB doctors appointment on Wednesday, so excited to see our little bean. That's what he/she looked like at our last ultrasound so that is his/her name for now. lol. Anyhow here's random update for you.
Have a good weekend and a wonderful day

Motherhood Right Now

I wanted to start a new update on the blog called: Motherhood right now. It will be an update on parenting and what it looks like with my two little ones at the particular age and season of life we are all in. So lets getting started by saying Tuck is practically 21 months and Grant is practically 8 months old. At the moment motherhood could be easier. I have two mama's boys and tend to choose their mom over anyone else. Which could not be more sweet. For instance after teaching my workout class last night I got home and my littlest calmed right down and was happy and my oldest sat in my lap and gave me 100 kisses. On the other hand Grant cried for 45 minutes while I was gone, which breaks my heart and bothers me to know he misses me so much when I'm at work, but I also know its good for him to be with his grandparents and it's good for me to work. I would love to be with my boys 24/7 but I have to work and work is good for me, it keeps my mind busy and I get to be s...

Self Control

I was having a conversation with my mom yesterday about eating and self control. I can't tell you how many times I have racked my brain for motivation and simple logic on how to better control myself around food. I feel like if you have self control you don't have to be on a diet all you need to do is eat what you want just don't eat so much of it and you've got the whole being healthy thing figured out. Of course it wouldn't hurt to add some good in, that has to be said. BUT I can't seem to figure out how to control my eating when it comes to sitting down and eating supper, I overeat every sinlge time. I have two kids so sitting down to eat isn't as interesting as it used to be. When I would cook meals before I would typically slave for about an hour and by the time I sat down I would eat a small amount then be too tired to eat anymore. Weird I know. Funny thing is when you spend the time cooking a meal eating it is not as interesting as eating something...

Nap-time

I'm sitting here during nap time trying to do a million different things. I have this small window of time to myself that i'm torn between getting house work done and having some quiet time. There's so much to do in a day that most days i wish there was a few more hours, or rather I had more energy to stay up later and get stuff done! So here I am with what I expect to be an hour at the most and i'm frazzled because I have so much to do and so little time. As you can tell I've decided to sit down and write a blog post and just get the thoughts I have in my head out. Empty my brain and stop thinking about all the things that need to be done and just enjoy the fact that both kids are napping and my husband just surprised me by coming home early and going to get us some lunch. What is life right now? It's a constant stage of change and chaos. It's these little moments during nap time that I sometimes get to process these chaotic moments and recharge. Thanks k...
