Working out with a baby in the Belly!!!!

I have worked out for two days since we have found out that we are pregnant! It has been two weeks since I have really worked out. Mendee and I went to the gym yesterday and today to workout it was a good, I was not over exhausted! To tell you the truth I felt great! I have been getting really tired every day about two o'clock in the afternoon. Which is not good with the job I have to think a lot! Although the two day we have worked out I haven't gotten really tired until around 8:00.

I spoke to the doctor about working out the day we had our first appointment. She said it was fine to workout that it would help with the pregnancy. I truly think that it works as far as how I feel right now! I have still had no symptoms that I am pregnant other than if I am hungry I have to eat right then! Any ways I am suppose to keep my heart beat under 140 which to be honest is really hard!!! I was thinking that it wouldn't be hard at all but It was next to impossible to do the same workout as before!

My due date is August 16Th two days after my birthday!!! It is going to be hot!!!!

First Appointment

We had our first appointment today! I was really nervous and scared! I know nothing to be scared of I didn't even see the doctor I saw the nurse! It wasn't to bad and it was very informative! Although they proved my husband right that I am suppose to be on Calcium pills yuk!!!!

We found out that the baby will be due on August the 16th two days after my birthday!Which I think is kind of cool! Our next appointment is Jan 27th we will be 11 and 1/2 weeks along we get to hear the little babies heart!!! Which of course will make me fill better! Over all I am feeling well! I am really trying hard not to stress about the horrible things that have happened with in the last week! I know that I should stay calm and take care of myself but I am not that kind of person. I want to make sure everyone is okay before thinking of myself. I forget that I am not just taking care of myself but a little one because I don't feel pregnant yet!

The best and most horrible week of my life!!!

On Saturday the 13th of December I was 4 days late so I took a test and it was positive!!! I was so excited but didn't believe it to be 100% true so I took another test the same day later in the morning and again it was positive! So we called my parents so we could tell them the great news and mom was one place and Randy another! So really frustrated that we couldn't get them together we decided to try Tyler's parents only to find his mother not home but at a Christmas party! Finally two hours later she came home and we get to share the big news!! It was so exciting we took a picture of the test and showed it to them! We said we just wanted to show them something we found his mothers response was "it isn't another car right?" We pulled it off they were totally surprised!!!

Then we made are way to my parents house and to my surprise my mother was not home! We only waited another 30Min's before she arrived. So again with the same line we had something to show them! My mom's comment "it isn't another dog is it?" They were so excited!

First thing Monday I got on the phone with the doctors office and had another test done to make sure yet another time!!! They took my blood and it was positive again of course. I just wanted to be sure before we told anyone else!! We have our first doctors appointment the 23rd of December!!

Tuesday morning at 3:00am we get the worst call of our life! Tyler's oldest borther has passed away he was only 30 years old he left behind a 2 year old little girl! She is one of the most important things in this world to me! She will now grow up with out a daddy!

Tyler and his family are not doing so well it is a huge loss that no one is ever ready for! Chris was very kind he had a huge heart and would always help the little guy the ones no one else would have given a time of day! He was a wonderful daddy who loved his little Ella more then anything else in this world! He will be missed! Please keep the Family in your prayers it is a very long tough road and only god can carry them through!

Day 6 at the GYM

So I had to miss yesterday because of a lunch meeting!! I was really not happy about that which was good! The old me wouldn't have cared at all! I really really enjoy working out it makes me feel so good about myself even if I don't get instant results! I don't expect it to be an over night thing at all!!

Day 5 The Gym

Today at the gym was a good workout! We did the seated elliptical for 25Min's then went down stairs to do this ab machine that was funny! We weren't really sure if we were doing it right or not!! Probably not!!!! We are still enjoying going everyday!!!
It make me feel so much better about my self! Mendee and I spend all of our time at the gym laughing at each other!!! It makes the time go by so fast!! The fan was not on again to day which makes really hot in there!! Well that is about it for today!!!

Day 4 at the GYM and Branson!!!

Okay so day four at the gym was good! It was a crappy food weekend though!! I could feel it I was really sluggish! It is amazing how you can tell when you eat crappy and then work out. I am craving things that are healthy for me now instead of junk! Now I still like the Chocolate and Pizza every once in a while!


So the crazy weekend in Branson, there were so many people there! Silver dollar city was crazy so many people you couldn't move! We waited 1 hour to just get on the bus to get into the Park, then when we were ready to leave we waited about an hour and a half to get on the bus to take us to our car!!!! My father in-law decided he wanted to go see the lights at Shepard of the hills!!! So we pull in only to find four lanes of cars!! When the booth that you pay at was in sight it said $10.00 a person and $40.00 max for a car so we paid and went on it wasn't like you could turn around with so many cars on all sides of you! We proceeded through the gates and down the trail only to find that half of the lights and people were either broken or so dim you couldn't see them! So needless to say we will not go back again!!!
We decided we would go and shop at the Coleman store! That was worth the trip, We walked out of there with lots of goodies!! My father and I then decided to go to this craft place that we always drive by and found two pictures to go in my living room!!!











They are about 4 foot tall and this shows them laying on a queen size bed and they fill it! I am so excited to hang them!! Tyler my mean ole husband won't let me hang them until Christmas since they were a Christmas gift from his parents! What a mean hubby!!!!!

DAY 3 and my weekend!!

Today at the gym Mendee and I tried yet another new machine and it worked like every muscle in your body!! It was great, but I think I am going to be sore tomorrow!!! I wasn't today surprisingly. Tyler finally went to the gym today to get his new card and he thought it was really nice!


I am still very comfortable there and do not feel embarrassed. I haven't found one rude person there yet! It really hasn't been busy at all and we have been going at 1:00 everyday so far.

We are taking a mini vacation this weekend! We are going to see the lights at silver dollar city!! I just love this time of year, I am normally not big on the cold but it doesn't bother me much this year!

I am going to invest in new workout pants and things this weekend! We plan to do a little shopping but not a whole lot!


Hope everyone has a happy and safe weekend!!!

DAY 2

Believe it or not I am not sore at all from yesterday! Today I went to the gym and did this new bike that they have, It has a full seat with a back on it and is much better then the hard seated ones!! My favorite is still the new style elliptical. Today Mendee and I went to get on the elliptical and Mendee was like mine is going backward!!! I was like I don't know how to fix it, so we decided she should stop and try again the funniest part was she made it go backwards there wasn't a button you push. It was so funny!!! The look on her face was great!! Then we go to get on the new bikes and we couldn't figure out how to move them up!! We looked like goof balls, but that is okay we laughed a lot and that makes you loose calories!!! I know that I have said this before but it is so great to have a partner to count on!

They have this place in the gym called SHAKE THIS!! It is wonderful lots of smoothies! We are addicted already!! I had a Mango, Pineapple and strawberry smoothie it was yuuuuuuummmmmyyyy!

The GYM

Okay so the first day at the gym. Mendee(my manager)went to the New world gym with me today at lunch. It was really nice! Everyone was so nice and it really wasn't busy at all for 1:30 in the afternoon! I am glad to have someone to go with!! I am going to start kickboxing next week! It is most likely going to kick my butt!!!! My plan is to workout at lunch for cardio and three nights a week do kickboxing classes! We had talked about doing the body pump classes some time soon which will be a lot of fun! So I am on the path to get rid of 50pounds!!!!

Oh Baby

Yes Tyler and I want to have a baby!! I don't feel that I am ready at this exact moment to have a baby! I would like to learn to take care of my self by getting in shape and eating better. I have wonderful friends and family and they keep informing me that I should come first to take care of me! I have heard that birth is so much easier if you are in shape!

I would love to have a 3 little boys that for the most part look like their daddy! I wouldn't mind having a girl it would just be a little tough since I get along better with little boys they are so much fun! Kids are so important to us, Tyler would have like ten if we could afford all of them! It is my time for once to be selfish and take care of me first!

Thanksgiving a little Christmas and the Gym!

This weekend we visited my family in Springfield,MO It was a lot of fun but a very long weekend!! It was an over all great trip! Sunday morning we awake to SNOW, I am like wait wasn't it 60 degrees like two days ago!! My dad (Randy)got to go home from the Hospital on Sunday afternoon. I am so Thankful he is doing better!!

Christmas we braved black Friday, NO I did not get out there with all of those CRAZY people at 4:00am. We waited until like 7 or 8pm it really wasn't bad. Guess what I am done Christmas shopping and they are all wrapped and ready to go to one of the 3 places we go every Christmas!! We didn't spend a whole lot of money and got some really nice things for all 5 of the kids!

Okay now for the gym, the new World Gym in Lowell! I am really excited and ready to go! I am so ready to get rid of about 50 pounds!! I am finally to the point of truly being tired of feeling sorry for my self. Get ready for a New Women!!! I have to stay true to my self and no one else!

My Thanksgiving Vacation

Okay so not a good holiday!! Tuesday I got a phone call at almost 10:00, It is my mom they took my dad(Randy) to the hospital! He has heart troubles although it had been 4yrs since the last time he was effected by it, he is considered to be a high risk. We were in the ER with him that night until about 4:00am! They finally get him set up in a room and tell us we have to wait outside in the waiting room for an hour while they get him set up!! I was beyond tired I couldn't believe by the time I got to go to sleep that morning I had been up for 24 hours. So on Wednesday we got up at like 11:00am and headed back up to the hospital hoping that everything go fixed that night. Only to find it had not, we spent the rest of the day up at the hospital with him. Thanksgiving morning we went to my step grandmas and ate a very quick lunch and then took food to my parents at the hospital. We found out last night that it is possible he could be in until Monday. Tyler and I are heading for my grandparents in the morning to spend the night and having Thanksgiving in Springfield, MO. I am looking forward to a night away but at the same time I am worried about Randy!

Thanksgiving

Okay so I am so excited about the Holidays!!! I just love all of the lights and the music!! although this is one time a year that can be hard as well trying to decide where you are going to go. As a married couple it is really hard because you don't want to hurt any ones feelings but you just have to share time. Let me tell you a little secret if your spouse has a very slow deciding family that waits until the last minute to decide when and where. Do not I mean do not go and tell your family that you and you spouse are coming to their house, just because the other family is slow doesn't give you a right to just make a move on your own!!! I love my husband, but some times the boy needs to get a brain! He has since apologized and I forgive him but really!!! So I have a friend who is coming in to town and I feel bad but I really don't think I am going to get to see her!! The girls all like to go out to the bars but that is not my thing. I don't want to upset them but I have to be an example.
