Today Ava is 14 months… it’s funny how for some reason it jumped out at me this month. Last month it slipped past me and I never gave it a thought. That’s probably because she keeps me super busy.

I thought I would bring you guys an update because it’s fun for me to look back and reflect on all the crazy changes since the last time I posted one for you guys!!

Ava is officially the energizer bunny. I almost said energizer battery. She runs and runs and the only time she sits down is when she’ ready for a nap or bed (or sick).  That being said, she tires me out more then teaching my fitness classes does!

 

Some fun new things Ava is doing..

• She waves, blows kisses, high fives (all on her terms but sometimes we get them when we ask)
• She gives wet kisses & big hugs
• She knows where my nose, ears, toes, and belly button is
• She opens the back door to let Cooper out. She can’t get the screen door yet so we are safe and keep it locked
• She loves her Little Tikes Car from Uncle Chuckie and Aunt Sue. She gets in it, closes the door and honks the horn. Sometimes she goes Duke’s of Hazard style and just climbs over the closed door!
• She rocks on her giraffe rocker like she’s actually going some place
• She DJ’s on her activity center and thinks she’s so cool while doing it (I love every second)
• As soon as its time for bed and I start to bring her upstairs she cries and clenches her legs around my waist. Clearly she hates bedtime.                                                          
• She runs faster then me.
• If I give her a snack she will hold it tight in her hand and put it up to Cooper’s nose so that he will chase her. She loves playing with him and even holding his bone.
• She loves hiding, behind tables, chairs, under blankets

I am sure you are getting bored reading all this so I’ll stop.

A quick update about me. I am still working hard on gaining strength. I started Insanity Max30 and I’m taking Shakeology (once a day). I started yesterday.

I’m hoping to see some drastic improvement in my core strength this month! Even though this isn’t a postpartum update anymore it helps me to focus and think about my goals and progress. My arms are definitely stronger and my back has improved a lot, ever since I started practicing Pull-ups!

What are your fitness goals?

Do you have a little one at home? What is something fun & new they are doing?
