-So {WHAT's} next?!?-

If you have been following me for a little bit now, you know that race day is tomorrow! You know the half marathon I was training for? All the long runs I was logging (well that one hahaha)... The 15+ miles I was running each week.... Well ya, My first half marathon was supposed to be tomorrow... but guess what?? I am not running it! It pains me a little to say that, but it is all for a good cause. 

I also didn't make it back to baking school this month like I had originally planned, which I said I will explain later... So I guess now is later??

Can I get an Amen?!?
If you know me, and my family, at all in the slightest bit... than you know that I "was" a one and done kind of girl! You know with the whole kids aspect of life! Joy is my pride and Joy so to speak. She is a sassy little 16 month old who keeps me on my toes. She is the smartest little girl I have met. She has the best personality && she just fills my heart to the max!!! Or so I thought... 

Well Surprise!!! Oopsie.... I guess the one and done is no more! 

That is her "Say what? I can't believe it!!' face too...
Yep, you guessed it, well I told you, baby number 2 will be here before long! Its crazy to me! I don't think it has hit me yet! I was content with just Joy, and only having one child (full time at least, we still have Carter who is with his mom)! Now I am going to have to learn how to function with two, yes TWO kids... I made the doctor check to make sure it wasn't twins! Well needless to say, two kids, two years apart... my tubes are getting tied!!!! 

I know that this is a little blessing that God has gave us and I am excited to see what will come of the next couple of years, now that Joy will have a full time play buddy! I want this pregnancy to be different from the last one, I REFUSE to gain 70+ pounds again! I am going to do what I can to stay active and still go to CrossFit. Right now, with all the wonderful all day morning sickness going on, I am doing what I can to eat as healthy as possible and get the proper nutrients that my body needs. I know that whatever happens, and however this pregnancy goes, I will enjoy this little peanut just as much as I have enjoyed being a mommy to miss Joy!

So since we sold EVERYTHING that we had with joy... yes everything (I was so set on the one and done thing, ya know) we are going to be slowly adding back to what we need. Since I have been through this once before, I kinda remember what we used the last time, and what we didn't but I am still open to suggestions. And we will be doing cloth diapers again, which I have already started stocking back up on!! I am excited for this new journey in life! And I know that all the other goals I had recently started working towards will just have to wait for now. We have more important matters to take care of!!! Like hoping for a girl, but wishing for a boy!!! Updates will follow, slowly but surely!!
