Right now I am at the airport waiting to go to WI for some training for work. I am excited to go so I can learn about how our products are made and about our state of the art test facility. After that, a guy twitch my company has a fish house and we are going to go ice fishing which I have never done!
Meanwhile, mommy is at home combing through Craig's List looking for baby stuff. Last night we got a swing and a couple of jumpy toys that I know Hayden will love because I would have loved them. She has found infant clothes and other more personal mommy stuff that she will be looking at this week so who knows what wil be there when I get back.
Next post, I promise a new belly shot because at 23 weeks, she is starting to show. Www.babycenter.com says that Hayden is about 12" and weighs over a pound now. He is becoming more active and mommy says it feels like a fish swimming around in her belly. Not for long though, as he gets bigger he probably won't feel much like a fish anymore.
Well that's all for now. Next post will have some pics.

Week 22
This marks week 22 of baby Hayden's development. He is becoming more active and mommy can feel him moving around. This morning, mommy confessed that she had been getting into the candy at work so I think the baby likes sweets!
After New Years I started my new sales position at American Excelsior. I sell environmental wood products through distribution for erosion control. I like the industry and fits well with my family background which is ALL construction. I get to wear jeans and boots and even a hard hat sometimes.
I decided to start really training my core hard so I have been doing suspension training with the TRX. I spend part of a day bolting a pipe to our rafters in the basement so I could set it up. I have an ideal area and can work up a real sweat. I am also doing cardio about 4-5 days per week. I usually climb the StairMaster for 30-40 minutes without holding on so I can work my core. With all of that I am still hovering around 140-143lbs. It could be because my eating gets off and by 8pm I am starving and if I don't eat, I won't be able to sleep.
Well it is after 8pm and I am hungry. Talk to ya later!

Abs by Summer
Last year (2011), I gained way too much weight growing right out of my clothes. Part of the reason was because I was traveling so much for my job eating out all of the time and not having a routine. The other part is because I got so frustrated with my back pain that I just quit exercising because it seemed that everything made it hurt.
After separating from my high travel job and seeing the 2nd surgeon that told me the only surgery that might work would be to remove my disc(s). I think not! I am going to lose weight, get in shape, and heal myself. Father time and a few pain meds along the way will be as far as I go.
For a Weeks to get their abs to show is a difficult thing because our lovely genetics carry our fat around the mid section. However, despite that, I am going to try like hell to get them by this summer. I now have only a 3 state territory with a company car so I can carry my fitness stuff around with me.
