15 Weeks

This week was a busy and exciting week!  First week of selling season at work, first hawk game of the year, and bought a Doppler to hear the little baby's heart beat!  On the other side Sunday was IronMan which was a harder day than expected.  I couldn't sleep the night before and all day I thought about IronMan and wanting to do it NOW!  I think I am frustrated because registration is Monday and I don't think there is anyway I can do it 2014 so I have to wait until 2015.  I am so blessed to be expecting this little one and wanted this more than IronMan but there is something about IronMan that I just can't shake.  So if anyone is up for it Sept. 2015 let me know, gives you PLENTY of time to train :)  Training for this event definitely changed my life and also is the main thing that got me through the loss of Ian, it was something I had complete control of both mentally & physically.  It pushed my limits, taught me dedication, sacrifice, perseverance, and discipline.  I am going forward with all these gifts and going to use it as a mommy and a future IronMan.  I will be IronMan, I can promise you that!
