Seriously I log on like 50 times a day to read everyone but I never comment or write myself. But its a new year so I may start trying again
SO much has happened yet not much has happened! Norah will be THREE in February and is the Smartest, sassiest cutey pants I know. Shes been fully potty trained for the past 7 months. Shes such an easy care free independent kid. She talks to much, we have conversations. Shes so lovable and sweet. Constantly tells me how much she loves me and hugs and kisses me. She makes my heart melt. I could go on and on about this child. So I need to start writing more every day because shes a trip. She makes me laugh so hard. Parenthood has been great. I mean it. I actually LOVE it. Yea I get tired and miss nights out every now and then but when Im snuggling my lil girl at night NOTHING compares and I mean that.
Marriage has been great. Brian is the best hubby as always. Cooking and cleaning and hes the best daddy ever. Norah loves playing with him more. Hes so fun though and she uses him as a jungle gym. Im more of the comforter. It was funny she wanted candy and Im like Go ask dad. She says you have to come help bc he’ll say no. HAHA. Im still nursing. Score. I love that Ill be nursing for 3 years. BUt we can have conversations about it now. She can ask nicely and I can tell her not right now or let me finish something. Im glad I can still provide that comfort to her.
Work has been good. Im working remote now and absolutly paranoid that it willl come to an end at any second. Working at Nemours for 10 years and being treated like garbage gave me PTSD or something bc anything that happens that reminds me of my old job sends me into a paranoid downward spiral.
Ive started talking Plexus which is a pink powder you mix with your water each morning before a meal. It helps regulate blood sugars which helps with cravings, helps with blood pressure and cholesterol levels too. So one of the side effects is weight loss! Or hell weight gain if you need it! Im also taking the Bio cleanse and Probio5 which helps get your gut healthy by helping cleanse the gastro-intestinal tract and arteries. Everyone should be on a good probiotic and I personally think Plexus can help so many people. Ive been taking it on and off for a year but finally signed up so I could get them at wholesale prices. I know people wanna bash and judge direct sales or “MLM” because I do. Heck I still do but what do I have to lose? some weight and bloat! Thats what. I personally know so many people this has helped in so many ways. People dont have to join, they dont have to buy, its nothing like that and thats why I liked it. If people are interested great, if not, great. No pressure here! I just love the products especially since theyre natural and safe for everyone, even KIDS and even pregnancy/breastfeeding(which I am). Which speaking of Pregnancy I am NOT and weve decided not to have any more right now but maybe a few years down the road.
Ive gone whole30 this month. I gained a bit of holiday weight (because I didnt have Plexus yet to control my cravings. Im DEAD serious when I say I have NO cravings anymore. I went to chikfila 3 times with my SIL so our kids could play and I didn’t WANT TO order a SHAKE at all. MY FAVE! It also helps with hormone regulation. I have the worst PMS, where IM a crazy bitch with crazy cravings right before I start a waterfall of blood. NOW? No cramps. no cravings. No pyschoness. And just a bit of blood. Score!) anyways Ive gotten my eating back on track. Id like to be where I was in August which was sexy AF. Im still doing Crossfit 5-6 times a week and I love it. I won Most improved at the gym and won some New Nano 5s. I PRed my Deadlift at 205 lbs yesterday.
Oh some things that happened in the past few months. We went on a cruise, that was fun. We got invited to the Prostate Cancer Summit in DC for free that we are going to in Feb. Christmas and Thanksgiving was fun. I hosted Brians family for Thanksgiving.
I swore I had more to say and probably will think of all the things I couldve written about once I log on and then my brain will go a million miles an hour and not let me sleep. Im up really late. Untill next time. Hopefully not in 6 months :(
Man I wish I got how to add pictures!! Add me on FB!
