Things I am loving this week!

| 4 Comments

It’s Friday guys and I am pretty pumped! We have so many things going on this weekend and I really think because I was looking forward to the weekend it made the week draggggg. Saturday I am headed to a new class that the YMCA is launching called GROUP RIDE (it is similar to Group Power but it’s a spin class) My co-workers are teaching it for the first time so I am going to support them and also get my sweat on. Shortly after, we will be driving to Wallingford, CT to attend a 1st Birthday party! We get to see some college friends which is always a lot of fun!!

And guess what is on the agenda for Sunday… a 2 year old Birthday party haha. Ava should have a blast and be exhausted after all her fun play dates.

On a totally different note, did you like Marc’s post yesterday? I am excited for you to get to know him a little better, he has so many great things to share with you over the next few weeks about his fitness journey! Be sure to check in tomorrow he has a follow up post.

Besides being excited for the weekend. Here are a few other things I have been loving this week.

The FOAM ROLLER. As torturous as it is, my legs get a lot looser after I use this bad boy. It gets rid of my tightness from millions of squats and I walk away feeling so much better.

 Lean Beef Meatballs.. I made these for Ava and snuck in some spinach. It’s the only way I can get her to eat spinach and they were so delicious :)

Walks with Cooper… we got in some great walks outside this week. Despite the cold and my nose freezing off on some days, it was fun and we had some great views!!!

Assisted Pull-Up Machine… this machine really helped me this week. I was sore the other day, so I really needed the assistance and it has helped me improve my Pull Up strength. There was no chance of me doing them on my own!

Because we all love food. Last night my Pre Boot Camp dinner was Al Fresco Chicken Sausages. They were red pepper & asiago cheese flavor… UM amazing. I devoured mine and Ava was begging for more. You gotta try them. Instead of using a bun or bread I used Romaine and I’m glad I did because you can taste all the seasoning from the juicy sausage!

Ava has been quite the character this week. She has made me laugh a ton and I can’t help but try to make her giggle too.

It’s so fun to watch her learn new things… like rocking herself on her toy Giraffe.

I hope you all have a great weekend and be sure to check back in tomorrow for a post from Marc!

Looking back on the week, what are some things you enjoyed?

Any fun plans this weekend?

  1. I need to get a foam roller, like ASAP! My legs have been feeling so stiff lately. Ava is adorable on her little giraffe!

    • You should definitely buy a foam roller, it is a great investment!! My legs hate it at the time, but seriously I walk away feeling loose! Ava loves her Giraffe rocker :)

  2. It’s so fun watching them learn new things! My little 9 month old learns and grows so much lately, it’s hard to keep track!

    • I agree, it’s so hard to keep track! In the beginning I was keeping a book of every little thing she did but now they happen so quickly that I can’t keep up! Kids are so smart :)
