What I'm Loving Wednesday!

Today I'm linking up with Jamie for

I'm loving that over the weekend we had our Gender Reveal 'What Will It Bee?' Party and we found out that sweet Baby Forbes is going to be a BOY! Bennett Lane Forbes HE will be! Waiting on photos for a full blog post about the party!

I'm loving that we're 20 weeks pregnant this week! Bennett is really starting to show!

20 Weeks Fun Facts:

-Bennett is the length of a large banana weighing in at a whopping 11 ounces! Grow baby boy grow!

-He has his taste buds and is now swallowing and enjoying the 'smorgasbord' of what I'm feeding him.

-Things that he tastes a lot of now, is what he will want when he's born. Starbursts!

-He's twisting, turning, and even doing occasional somersaults!

-He's sleeping 12-14 hours a day.

& I love feeling little Bennett kick so often now! No more laying down in silence to hope to feel a flutter every now and then. It's really kicking!

I'm loving that today Bennett and I got to go pin Brandon during his Promotion Ceremony. Afterwards there was a cookout. Of course we stayed for food! ;) This makes the second time I've been able to pin him for one of his promotions. The first time was in September of 2011 and we had only been married 4 short months! Loved having the honor of doing it again and this time I had someone with me! So proud of my husband for working so hard to provide for our sweet little growing family. <3

I'm loving my sweet Jax. Oh, my first born. So special to me. I think he knows I'm pregnant, or that 'something' is going on. At night now he sleeps curled up in a ball beside me with his head resting on my belly. Smart pup. He's gonna be a protective little thing!

I'm loving Crossfit! A few weeks ago Brandon and I joined a box. Loving everything about Crossfit!

Monday I participated in my first 'Hero WOD'. It was a WOD honoring fallen soldiers. When I felt like I couldn't get through one more pull up, I remembered why I was doing it. Pretty motivating.

I love how the workouts are always different, working on different parts of the body, and really wearing me out! But after every WOD, I just think about how fun it was. I also love that it's completely scaled and safe for me and the baby. It's definitely a different kind of work out and I love it! This morning's warm up before the WOD the coach played the song 'Roxanne'. Everytime we heard Roxanne, we had to do a burpee. That't not something you do every day! Neither is 98 Ab mat sit ups, 16 thrusters, 30 wall balls, 128 air squats, 68 toes to bars, or 52 pull ups... but I did all of that in a little under 22 minutes. Good stuff!


I'm loving a new song I keep hearing on K-Love. It's called 'Starts With Me' by Tim Timmons. It's a perfect reminder that God is there, but we have to reach out to him even though he isn't tangible and we can't always see him or feel him.



'You're my revival song, you start where I belong
On my knees, on my knees 
When I am weak or strong you meet me here
When I'm on my knees, on my knees 
Oh, it starts with me'
