Mommy Your Jeans Look Fat

Why is it that the only time I feel motivated to diet and exercise is when I'm pregnant? It also doesn't help the matter much when my 3 year old daughter looks at me and then tells me "Mommy your jeans look fat!" What do I say to that? She is only 3 and I really think she thought she was telling me something that would make me happy. Her tone appeared to be that way anyway. She also told me how pretty my hair looked so I think it was a compliment, but if you know me, telling me my jeans look fat is not going to make me smile. So, needless to say, I took it in stride and made a mental note to myself. I told myself at that moment that number one...I'm not going to wear jeans again for the rest of my pregnancy and number two...I really needed to start thinking about what kind of diet and exercise plan I was going to do when the baby arrived. So for any other moms out there that have tackled the dreaded baby weight and been successful at it I would appreciate some advice on what works and what doesn't.

So with all that being said that's move on to something else...maybe something that isn't so depressing. I am now 26 and a half weeks pregnant and feeling pretty good considering. My spirits are up and I'm staying positive which is only a miracle I can give God the credit for. When all of this is said and done and I can walk away saying that my faith is stronger I would have to be one of the luckiest Moms in the world. I'm pretty close to that status right now anyway. I have two beautiful daughters that make me laugh and keep me on my toes everyday, plus another one on the way. What else could I ask for? Not to mention a husband that has been my rock through all this but also keeps a smile on my face. I couldn't do it without him. Since I'm on a roll I would also have to give thanks to the many friends and family members that have sent well wishes my way and have been supportive anyway they can. I thank you all!

I have done blogs for a few years now but never to share with my friends and family so this is new to me. I hope that you all enjoy what I have to offer and if you don't I'll go ahead and apoligize now. Stay tuned because I have nothing else better to do right now than to write, so I'm going to keep it coming. Luvs!
