Well, today has once again been incredibly busy. I trained shoulders and did some abs quickly at the gym this morning, which was a very good session. Then, it was home to play with Makenzie before her nap. During her nap, I got some food prep done and finally finished the laundry from this weekend. In the afternoon, it was off to the grocery store for our weekly shopping and also Dick's Sporting Goods to get some different shorts for my sportswear outfit for the competition. The federation has a pretty strict no butt showing rule for the sportswear round and mine were border-line. After watching the show this weekend and seeing what other girls wore, I decided to be safe and get some different shorts. Hey - works for me because my butt is my weak point and a bit extra coverage there is a good thing in my book. Haha!
After Peter got home, it was off to the gym again for a cycle class with my beloved instructor. I was sure to get there early this time to reserve my bike! Yowza was it a killer class. She called it her "Wipeout" class. Every 3rd song she played the "Wipeout" song (you know - the duhduhduhduhduhduhduhduhduhduh...WIPEOUUUTTTT" one") and during that song you had to go as fast as possible with moderate resistance the entire 2 minutes. Then the other 2 songs between each wipeout were different drills of breakaways, hill sprints, heavy resistance, jumps, etc. The goal is for us all to look like we went through a wipe-out dripping in sweat and to physically be wiped out when we leave. Yeah - she succeeded! Felt gooood!
Now I will top off another successful day with some chicken and roasted veggies for dinner and watching last night's episode of Desperate Housewives with the most supportive man ever, while enjoying my tbsp of peanut butter for dessert! It's the little things in life. G'night everyone!!!

Things have been insanely too busy for me recently! I have been trying to get some show things in order, doing all the training/cardio/etc that goes with show prep, among other life plans. For example - here is how this weekend went.
Friday = laundry/dishes/cleaning house/being with Makenzie all day, training & cardio in the afternoon, spend some time with hubby at night after finishing things around home.
Saturday = training & cycle in the morning, more house stuff, out for errands such as ordering Makenzie's 1st Bday cake, checking out show makeup, park for family time, getting my suit pinned and cut to fit perfectly, drive 1 hr to watch another SNBF show to see what mine will be like, home at 1 am after picking the baby girl up from grandma's.
Sunday = teach Sunday school, church service, discuss plans with our friends for our vacation this upcoming week, gym for training. And still the rest of the afternoon I have to tutor a neighborhood kid and go bowling with one of my friends and meet her new boyfriend. Before coming home to food prep for the week and get dinner going.
This week will be cramming all of my weights in Mon-Thur since I will be out of town and won't be able to weight train on Fri or Sat, when I will focus on cardio with runs/walks on the beach. That of course also means this week will be getting everything in order for the trip - mostly things at home since my mom is coming to stay here to watch Makenzie for us while we are gone. So, yea, I am a busy woman these days. And do not foresee it calming down anytime soon...at all. Good thing I thrive on GO GO GO!
To close this post and show my apology for my lack of posting these few days I will give a shot of me in my suit. It's not the best by any means because it was late afternoon of a high day so I was a bit bloated and soft looking. Lovely. Blah! At least it will give you an idea and sometime in the next couple of weeks I know I will have to get proper updated progress pictures. Ciao for now!
