6 Month babymoon

6 months down 3 more to go! This calls for an extended weekend getaway :-) just in time too! Work is wearing on me big time not having enough hours in the day to get what I need to done before I'm too tired to move lol! We decided to stay close to home this time which is unusual for us. A gal at work suggested we visit Yachats, Oregon. It's beautiful here. it is a little more south on the coast then we usually visit. There are no outlet malls, casinos or even a chain restaurant or grocery store. It's nice to be away from the hustle and busle of city life and the 1000s of tourists I see each week at work!

I haven't really noticed much of a change in cravings or that so called nesting thing that is supposed to happen. I do notice my belly getting BIGGER and all of the sudden too almost as if it popped out over night... It was bound to happen being 6 months. This is probably one of the only times in my life that I have had a stomach that sticks out! No way I can suck it in anymore lol. I'm learning to except it and work on rocking the prego belly look it's always cute on other people I'm sure it's an alright look for me.

Exercise exercise!! OK easier said then done lol. Does work count as cardio?? I'm saying YES and YES 1000 and 10 times :) see I happen to wait tables at the number tourist spot in Oregon, beautiful Multnomah Falls. The last month has been just short of insane for me. I was thinking maybe being pregnant has something to do with it. Deep down I think it has a big something to do with it but I don't want to be that crazy pregnant lady to work with lol! I'm going to say it's because we have been so busy instead. This is my sixth summer here and usually I would struggle to get 30 hours a week but this summer I am usually between 36 and 40. The money has been great (wait till you see Lily's nursery) but I have literally been running my butt of. My sales for my shifts usually run between 1000-1300 last Sunday I hit 2200 which is unheard of in a 6 hour shift for me. So I'm counting my shifts as cardio themselves haha. I'm still making it to the gym I shoot for 3 or 4 times a week it all depends on how I feel after a crazy day at work. I'm still lifting and doing a couple of cardio sessions. Getting my blood pumping gives me an added burst of energy and I look forward to my workout. Let's hope I can keep it up! Cheers to being a fit pregnant lady!!
