Preggo WOD that wasn't a preggo WOD.

Ouch. I am not going be able to lift my arms for like 3 days now, and they aren't even sore yet. I pulled a WOD from a gym GQ and I worked out at in Oregon on our vacation.

10 Push press/20 push ups (95#/65#RX) I used 45#
9 Push press/18 push ups
8 Push press/16 push ups

until you get to

1 push press/2 push ups

This was rather painful I have to say. GQ would be impressed. Ow!

WOD from yesterday

So yesterday we did Filthy Fifty - and all I can say is ouch! GQ is sore, but I am not, at least yet. I tend to get more sore as the day goes by.

28:28 was my time

50 box jumps (step ups)
50 kettlbell swings (20#)
50 push press (45# bar)
50 lunges
50 wall balls (12#)
50 Knees to Elbows (This one is hilarious to watch me do I must say - lots of grunting to get my knees to my waist at this point LOL)
50 double unders (I did squats)

I have to say I was very nervous about this one as it is alot, but I was ok all the way through it. I didn't go hard and heavy or anything.

GQ also leaves on Monday for an unspecified amount of time. I usually am not real concerned about him going TDY, but I am 3 weeks away from my due date. I have to say that I am a little nervous this time. Even though I know that he can come home if something happens, it is just unnerving. As long as I am not early, I know he will be back before I go into labor. Hopefully that won't happen. At this time, I don't think it will, but you never know! OK enough preggo insecurity!

Hope you all have a great weekend!!!

Baby Shower and Valentine's


My baby shower went fabulously! I had a great time and I hope everyone else did too! Here a few pictures from the shower:














Instead of cards, the hostesses asked the guests to bring books, with inscriptions of who they were from. It was such an awesome idea as I now have many new books to read to the baby and they all came from someone I care about - and somehow I did not get any that I all ready had!


My ribbon hat LOL:




DG and Speed had a friendship dance at their school and I took a couple of pics before we left for it. I should have taken my camera to the dance, but oh well!


We had a great Valentine's day though it was way more laid back than some other great stories I have read on here! I received a lovely bouquet of pink, white, and red tulips! We just hung out all day and went out to dinner at On The Border (the only decent Mexican food in the general area!!!) We got there before the crowds so we only had a 10 minute wait. GQ blackmailed the kids into taking a bite of the dried out chili's before they could eat their ice cream, I was quite surprised that DG did it with a smile on her face!
So in baby news - 4 weeks to go now!!! My mom finally went and got the fabric for the bedding - and I pray she starts making it like now, there isn't much time left! I will post pictures of those when I can!
I think I will only workout 3 days a week now, unless I am feeling extra spiffy one day I guess! I haven't been timing the workouts but the last couple I have done were:
4 rounds
20 wall ball - 12lb
20 one armed KB swings 20lb
20 push ups
20 pull ups
4 rounds
12 back squats - 45#
12 pull ups
12 wall balls - 12 lbs
about 12 minutes for this one
AMRAP in 20
5 Ball Cleans 12lb
10 Lunges - 15lb kb in each hand
15 Double Unders - I did squats as I can't really jump right now
I had like 9 rounds for this one - GQ did like 14 or more of this one - he lost count LOL
The kids are needing to get ready for bed so I had better get off here and I don't know - be a mom hehe!

It's Cold Outside!

I wish that if it was going to snow that it would stick. My kids get so disappointed when they can't go sledding around in it. 2 days in a row, we had a couple of inches but it was all melted by the time they got home. Now today it is barely 28 degrees and there is nothing for them to play in. Just bitter wind!

I had a good workout today even if I was a little slow! I think GQ passed me at least 2 times on this one LOL.

As many rounds as possible in 20 minutes:

5 handstand push ups (I did 25# DB press)
10 push ups (I have to use a bench so I am at an incline, and the belly doesn't hit the ground :) )
15 box jumps (step ups for me!)
20 squats

I did 6 rounds plus 5 presses and I feel pretty good about it! It is funny when other guys he works with come in and see me working out. You can always see the surprise on their face!

I have just a little over 5 weeks to go!! I have been cleaning and reorganizing. Yesterday I went and got the outfit to bring FatBoy home in. I can't wait!!!

Also a few giveaways that I have seen recently are:

Sara's Pink Sugar and Loquita's Afghan

Awesome things going on, ladies!!!
