I love the days when you feel like you have taken on the world! You put on your big girl star panties and suit up like Superwoman!! Today was one of those days for me and it felt oh so good. I needed it :)
The day started off amazing. My best friend and I have been making a regular appearance at the park by my house to jog.... AKA walk/jog, 4 miles almost every morning. Strangely I am enjoying the jogging. Since I have decided to give up Bikram yoga (post on this later on), I have been wanting to try something new. I am still going to try cycling with a friend in the near future, but I have a feeling running may be "it". At least for now :) Which means I will have to try my hand at a half marathon soon. Did I really just type that? Uh oh....
All in all it was a great day and I even did a few things for our business. Have I said lately that being self employed is AMAZING?! I love the ability to plan my day around doing what I want to do and then fit my business into the evenings or little areas of my day :) Ahhh... this is how God really wanted us to live life.
Medical Update:
Last Wednesday I made my weekly trip to good 'old LabCorps for yet another blood draw to check my HCG levels. When I called the doctor Friday they told me it was at an 8 and we are DONE!! Whew! I never thought I would be so happy to not be pregnant. Now we are ready to try again for another little miracle :)
We are both doing really well despite our recent loss. Crazy how life still goes on even when you loose something you wanted so bad. It helps that we have a lot to look forward to in these next few weeks! Chris has been going to a Men's Church retreat, Mancation for the past 3 years and is looking forward to his 4th the last weekend in April. It just so happens every year it has been on my Birthday weekend, so the girls always plan a trip while our men are away. We had an unforgettable (and CRAZY) time in South Padre last year, but this year we will be spending a relaxing weekend in a suite at the JW Hill Country Marriott here in San Antonio. :)
I plan on spending many hours at the adult only salt water pool and on a tube in the lazy river with an adult beverage in hand :) With my girls by my side, it should be an incredible weekend!
Then the next week Chris and I fly off to Florida. We will spend a few days with my older brother, his wife and my adorable nephew Keelan. June will be a year since I have seen them and I miss them all TERRIBLY! I hate that they left Texas last year, but boy are they in a great place to visit :)
The best part of the trip is when we will drive south to Destin to stay in a VERY luxurious Bed&Breakfast on the beach! I have a "thing" with B&B's. Their charm is intoxicating and I try to find one where ever I can! Featured in Southern Living: Henderson Park looks like it will be my best find yet! Adults only, free happy hour, full breakfast/lunch, towel/chair service on the beach... Can we be there NOW?!!
Nothing makes me happier than knowing the love of my life and I will be sitting on this beach in 3 short weeks :) Turning 30 has NEVER sounded so good!
