Veggie Garden & Feeling HUGE!

What a productive day I had today! I am impressed with all I accomplished. I woke up at 9 and it felt great to be able to sleep in past 7:30. I woke up feeling refreshed and ready to get started with my day. I had a cup of Special K with bananas :) Yummy. After breakfast I got on the treadmill and walked for an hour - 3.2 miles, 7% incline. I did 3 miles at 3.3 mph and the last .2 miles at 2.7 for my "cooldown."
After my walk I swept the family room in the basement. I have been slacking so it was crazy how much dust and animal hair there was in my pile - eek! I need to keep up a schedule for that. After the basement was clean I decided to go check out the garden.



The beans are growing like crazy :)

The peas are getting there...

I planted a couple more squash seeds because only a few sprouted

I will have to get a better picture of the cucumbers, but there are some sprouts mixed in with the weeds

I am also growing broccoli, cauliflower, celery, carrots, scallions, and peppers. I cannot wait to have all of these fresh veggies :) I love my garden and I am definitely glad Tim added onto it for me this year.
After looking at the garden and watering it, I got my ipod ready, my sunglasses on, and got on the lawn mower. I know I have said this before, but I love mowing the lawn :) It is an hour of just me and the mower. I get to listen to music - no phone, so distractions. It feels like "me" time.
By the time I was done with the lawn it was time to shower and get ready for work.

I am feeling HUGE lately. I know that the little guy is growing, but I just feel uncomfortable and ready for this pregnancy to be done. I feel guilty for feeling that way, but I am ready to get my body back and sleep on my tummy! I am probably just getting bigger, but geesh this is getting a little much. I still have 8 weeks left! Ugh. I will admit that I have probably not been eating the best either. I am ashamed that I have not been behaving with my eating habits. I have been getting fruit in my diet, but ice cream seems to be my downfall lately. I am going to try my hardest to control my cravings and watch what I eat. It is definitely a struggle! Wish me luck, please...
