Mango's

Mmmmmm Mango's are so delicious, which is a great cause at 23 weeks this week the little guy is weighing about the size of a large Mango, and is as long as a green onion. Magical I know, comparing babies to fruits and veggies, what will we think of next, tools, exercise equipments, the comparisons are endless. Well, I like the food, i think I can relate to it the most, since I like to eat, especially fruit :) So anyways, christmas and new years have both come and gone and so has the sickness that we had living in our house for 2 weeks. Micheal had some sort of stomach flu over christmas, he had it pretty bad, bad enough that he wouldn't even leave his bed for christmas dinner. The dinner he waits for every year. Oh well, at least there is another christmas to look forward to this year, and many years to come! hahaha as for me, well I had a different sickness, pneumonia to be exact, but like any person it took me a few days to actually see a doctor, and by that time there was not enough air in the world to fill these lungs, well, at least it felt like that. Being sick for 2 weeks is not fun, especially when your best friend and partner in crime is just as sick. hahahaha who watches the turkeys!!! Let's just say, we went a little house crazy and more! hahahaha but we made it through it and now we can look back and laugh. we are also proud at how well we conquered the craziness of the season. we make a GREAT team :) On another note, it feels as though I havn't been at work for forever, since I had a 2 week staycation prior to being sick, I think I worked 1 day in the last 4 weeks. If we weren't sick that would have been some fun time off :) hahaha don't get me wrong, we enjoyed christmas with our family, just differently. Our boys were spoiled of course and we can't thank everyone enough for that! These kids are truly blessed to have so much love in their lives! They don't know how lucky they are. I can't wait to see what 2013 has in store for us! There are a few exciting moments I know of that we are looking forward too this year. But the unknown is what is even more exciting. Today marks the 30 day countdown to our Caribbean trip, waahoo, and to start it off I joined the squatting challenge. hahaha Why Squats you say? well, Because they make your butt firm, toned and strong! Squats use your glutes, quads, hamstrings and core when done properly, and January is squatting month!!! found here : https://www.facebook.com/fitnessfreakscanada?ref=stream&__req=f 
It's the perfect way to get ready to wear that bikini :) Micheal and I have also decided to cut out sugar from our diets to prepare for the warm weather and for the glucose test for me :P (don't wanna be gestational diabetic this time around) 
 Anyways, what are your goals or plans for January? Think about it.
