I'm almost 20 weeks (5 months) pregnant AKA halfway there! I'm still such a weirdo for not fully grasping the realism of this baby-in-utero situation, but I am oh so excited to go Tuesday October 13 for our ultrasound to check on this babe and find out if it's a boy or girl! I'm hoping and praying that all goes well at this appointment and we can focus on naming and welcoming a new child to our family. [Stay tuned Oct 13 for the big announcement!]
Here lately, I've been spending more time in the gym and am really feeling good. I know that feeling good is a big bonus in the second trimester so I'm taking advantage of it and hoping to continue moving throughout the third trimester. I feel differently this pregnancy than I did with Khloe and I owe 99.9% of that to continuing to get myself to the gym. Now I will say, my goals are different while pregnant. It took me a few weeks to get over myself and realize I had to take it easy. Humbling myself to finish last in a workout and being happy about it was tough, but I am to the point where I feel proud to have even come to the gym to move at all. Our members are so great and supportive, and I have to admit I channel my inner Jess Reynolds who worked out her entire pregnancy and I never heard her complain one time. I draw some serious inspiration from her and my girlfriend, Katie Riggs!
As we ease our way into October, this month is bringing many changes and a little craziness to the Hurst home. We fly to Florida for Krieble's wedding, then upon returning, find out the sex of our babe, have our yard dug up and sewer line totally replaced, host our life group weekly, close on the selling of our home, PACK and MOVE (ugh), break ground on our new home, and maybe do some trick-or-treating. Ain't no thang.
In the meantime, watch this amazing pregnancy announcement 17 years in the making.
