<b>I have been asked a couple times about my birth story, so I
am going to share with you all. </b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sunday evening after dinner I started to get these pains in
my back, nothing crazy just some pain that I could notice. I went to bed and
couldn’t sleep but pretty sure this was just due to me being anxious.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As the pains started to get more frequent we
decided to go to the hospital.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After
spending a 3 hours there and not getting home till 5 am that morning… FALSE
ALARM! <o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
<b>Stay with me this is a 3 day long story.... </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I go home sleep half the day and that evening I was awaken
by some serious pain in my back and lower abdomen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I waited them out for a couple of hours
hoping they would go away and no luck, so off we went again. On a scale of 1-10
I would say my pain was at a 7. They checked me and I had progressed from the
night before so they kept me a couple hours and decided to check me again. Here
is the catch; I have learned that checking the cervix is completely
subjective.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Since this was all happening
early in the morning we caught the staff right before they were about to be
done with their shifts.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This may have
made no difference when it come to the medical side of it but all I could think
was the girls kept coming in and checking me then this big guys would come in
and I would be 1cm smaller than what they told me an hour ago. This was so
discouraging but they had us go walk around for a couple of hours and then come
back. After skipping and jumping my way through Lowes and Wal-Mart at 7 am we
went back and NOTHING. They gave me some pain relieves and sent me on my way. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is now Tuesday and my moms decided to head this way since
she felt we were getting close. Mom and I walked that evening and went to bed.
Then it hit me again some serious pain, except for this time it was even worse.
I held out at home for 3 hours and was at the point where I thought I was going
to get sick with each contraction so we headed back to the hospital at 2 am.
When we got there I had went from a 2 from the precious day to a loose 6 but
they wanted me to wait an hour and see if there was any change.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At this point I was making the hideous noises
with each contraction and was questioning if I could even do this…. like I had
a choice.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After the longest hour of my
life they came back in to check me and told me that I would need to wait
another hour and see. I immediately broke down in tears, all I could think was
they are leaving their shift and some guys with sasquatch hands was going to
come in next and I would take a giant step backwards.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The nurses and doctors left the room and 5 min later one of
the nurses came back in and told me that she talked the doctor into letting me
be admitted since I was at a loose 6 now. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Here exact words “We aren’t sending her home
with that cervix” THANK GOD!! I wanted to jump out of the bed and kiss this
nurse SERIOUSLY! They wheeled me to my room and within 10 min I had an epidural
and was feeling… nothing!!! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

After having the epidural for maybe 10 min if that long, I
felt a warm feeling down there. Ok, at this point I could feel nothing and just

Between searching Pinterest, asking friends, and the list the hospital gave me I was going to need a whole luggage set. Although I am usually a huge over packer I wanted to make sure that I didn't have a whole bunch of junk that I didn't need to lug home and put away after baby girl arrived. I am sure I still over packed to some extent but this is what I feel comfortable with, so here goes.<br />

<span style="text-align: start;">I will be the first to admit as soon as I found out I was pregnant I started daydreaming about what I wanted a nursery would look like. From the very beginning I knew that I didn't want the room to have a theme. You know, I didn't want there to be flowers/pink galore or baseballs on every wall. As soon as we found out we were having a baby girl I immediately had a vision where I wanted her room to be bright, happy, airy, and full of color. When I mean full of color I mean FULL of color. Also because we live in a rent house I didn't want to spend a whole lot of money on her nursery and Nate didn't want me to either. This is where the DIY overload set in, pretty much everything you see in the room beside the crib was made or repurposed from something that we already had bringing our total expense for the nursery to literally around $130. If you know me I pride myself on the deals that I can find or create so I am definitely proud of how her nursery turned out.</span></div>

<span style="text-align: start;">The dresser which I have had since I can remember was being used as pretty much storage in my office. Since the office is now the nursery there was no need for the storage and now makes the perfect changing table. It really is amazing what a little bit of paint can do, before this dresser just looked old and now.... well you can see. </span></div>

<span style="text-align: start;">For her collage wall, the frames and the pennant flag I already had on hand. I created the wall art used in the frames and added an images from our maternity session also. I found a faux deer mount on etsy that was solid pink that I loved but I did not love the price tag. So, Nate so generously gave up one of his many that he had just laying around and I bagged/taped off the antlers and spray painted it bright pink. I did not want the wood showing on the back of the mount like you typically would see in a European mount so we improvised and drilled a piece of wood with a picture hanging hook right into the back of the skull (this this isn’t going anywhere). This is probably my favorite part of the whole room. </span></div>

My Aunt is an amazing seamstress and for every baby that is born in our family she makes a quilt for them. Like I said before I didn’t want it to be too matchy in the room so I sent her some ideas of what I like. I don’t think this is her idea of a quilt she would like to make but I am absolutely in love with it. She also made our wedding quilt for us and surprised me and included pieces from that quilt as well as a little piece of my great grandmother and my grandpa in there. Couldn’t of imaged anything more beautiful.<br />

I love being able to have things in her room that have meaning behind them. Pretty much everything you see up on her self is something special that was given to baby girl or has been part of my family. It is the story behind all of these things, big or small that makes it so much better than just regular decor on a shelf.<br />

It is so amazing to me how much love Baby B has been shown
and she isn’t even here yet. Baby shower #2 was just as amazing as the first
one. This shower was held in Fayette at the gorgeous JJ Folly Bed and
Breakfast located just outside of Fayette. I would recommend anyone to stay
there while they are in town or to host any small events, you wont be
disappointed I promise. It was the perfect day and Baby B and I had so many
close friends and family around us. Some even traveled in from Louisiana, I
felt loved for sure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Two of my best
friend Julie and Jennifer threw the shower for me and they blew I
out of the water. They knew how much I loved COLOR and incorporated it into the
shower as well as so many amazing details. My mother in law and sister in law
also never seize to amaze me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They
create an awesome diaper cake, baby bouquets, and TONS of awesome onesies. Needless
to say after leaving the shower Baby girl is more than ready to make her
entrance.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>

I went back and fourth trying to decide if I should just purchase closest dividers or to make them myself. Well, lucky for you I decided to go ahead and make them myself as I did so many DIY's for baby girls room why stop now. This fun, full of color, and unisex design will be perfect in any baby girl or boys closet. I ordered the actually closet hangers from amazon and after shipping cost me $5.56 and arrived in just a couple of days.<br />

After reading some of the reviews I was a little nervous they wouldn't fit our closet rod but after getting them in they fit perfectly. My closet has the the wooden rod and is about 4 inches in diameter so if you are close to this you should be good to go. </div>

Ever since we set the date for my shower in February I have been looking forward to it ever since. I had no idea how special and thankful I would feel after going to my very first baby shower. Baby B received so many wonderful gifts I can't even being to explain how awesome all of them were. You will see some of them in my nursery post in a couple of week... be super excited for that post. My sister, best friend, and Aunt worked very hard to put this baby shower together and it all turned out absolutely perfect. Here is a little look at some of the details. </div>

Kirsten made these cookies for my bachelorette party and every since them I have been IN LOVE with them. I might have eaten 3....4.... or 5 of them at the baby shower. UGH they were so good I couldn't stop. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, we did the baby food tasting game and I got 3 of them correct. Not too bad if you ask me but...... do you see number 6 up there? That is the worst thing that I have ever tasted in my life. There was actually some gagging going on during this game all because of number 6. My was Tuna but it smelled and looked a lot like wet dog food. I can't remember exactly what it was but I do remember it was a mix of a whole meal including meat.... GROSS!</div>

This week has been a crazy week. I had my glucose test yesterday, it was a busy day and my phone died at 2pm. I got home at 7 plugged my phone in and had a voice mail from my doctor. I knew this wasn't a good sign as she told me they would only call if something was wrong. I have low iron and very high glucose levels (mines was 180 below 130 is normal). They told me to take iron tablets every day and I will have to start checking my blood sugar regularly. I am hoping that I will be able to manage this though diet and exercise. I looked today to see how many days we had left till we get to meet our baby girl, 12 weeks or 84 days WOW. I feel like time is quickly approaching and the readiness I thought I had is slowly slipping away. Lots to do!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On a more exciting note we leave for our first Breland family vacation. We are headed to Dauphin Island Alabama on Wednesday of next week, but not before a couple of pit stops. We will leave on Wednesday and take Charlie to stay with my grandma where he will get to stay and run free (well more than normal) for 9 whole days. From there we are going to go see Nate's Grandma Red. I got to meet Red 2 years ago on her 89th birthday and loved every moment I spent with her. So I am so excited to get to see her again and spend the fourth with the whole family there.</div>

I really don't plan on doing a whole lot besides laying in my lawn chair on the beach the whole time we are gone. SERIOUSLY NOTHING!!! We are going to get family pictures and maternity pictures done while we are there so I am just a tad bit excited about that. I found Jennie Tewell Photography after a long search for the perfect photographer, I defiantly think I found her. I LOVE getting pictures done while I am visiting a different state. Its so much fun to get to work with different photographers with all different styles. </div>

Gender reveal parties are all the craze right now thanks to Pinterest... at least I think so. But what if you are like me and live away from your family and just can't make an actual party work? These gender reveal scratch off cards are a perfect option. Simply place them in the mail or add a little note and have a big Skype date while your family and friends all scratch at the same time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These cards along with custom options can be found here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/BBDEZINE?ref=hdr_shop_menu</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't like these designs? No problem a custom card can be designed for you for as little as $5.</div>

Wow it has been a crazy last couple of weeks. Last week I went back to my home town to celebrate my sisters bachelorette party. We had so much fun and I have so many pictures to share but we will save that for another post. On top of that I got to see one of my best friends Kirsten who just got back from Rome and I hadn't seen in over 6 months. Let me tell you this pregnant girl can still hang with the best of them. We partied till 3 am for my sisters bachelorette party and then I went out the next night and go my dance on with Kirsten. Of course I was DD both nights but I had the most fun I have had in a long time, not to mention I didn't have to worry about not feeling good the next morning. SCORE </div>

On Thursday Kirsten and I spend ALL DAY shopping and I finally found a swimsuit. Needless to say there was lots of laughs along the way but it all worked out. Found the suit pictured below at Victorias Secrets. </div>

Baby girl is now taking tumbling lessons, at least that is what it looks and feels like. She is moving around like crazy and pushing whatever body party she can at the time up against the most uncomfortable spots. I thought the tiny kicks were awesome now I see her moving in there and I am amazed. I came home from my trip to her crib all put together in her room. Nate didn't even tell me it had come in so as soon as I saw it I had to hold back the tears. So, in love with the crib can't wait for her room to come together. Aside from the increase movement and cravings for sonic everything else seems pretty normal. Kind of feel like I am a boring pregnant person. :)</div>

It's hard to believe that we are already a little over halfway though the pregnancy. Baby girl is already loved so much I can't even image what it is going to be like when she gets here. Finally got back to my workout routine this week after a almost 2 full weeks out of town for my sister bridal shower and Nate's conference tournament. Taking time off is not as easy as it was before I was pregnant. I feel like before I could take a week off and jump right back in and be back to where I was in a couple of days.... yeah well those days are over for right now. Needless to say I am thankful that all of the students are gone on campus now because I am pretty sure they looked at me like an alien and thought "man that girl drank way to much beer". Certain exercises do not flow as easily as they used to. For example the Push Press should be one fluid motion to from the chest to above the head. Well, there is one motion from my arms, a different motion from my boobs, and my belly just does what it wants. That is a whole lot of moment people. :) </div>

A friend is being so nice and allowing me to put all the crap I need to get rid of in her garage sale so that mean that I can start working on baby girls room soon. Thank goodness because the pile of stuff (cloths, shoes, books, stroller, etc...) is starting to get out of control and I can't stand to look at it any more. I am going to do a blog post for my nursery inspiration. Though it would be fun to compare my vision to the finished product later.... (way later). </div>

My sister is getting MARRIED.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Where the heck has time gone? In less than a
month she will be walking down the isle to marry one of the best guys I know. But
before we rush into that we had to throw her a bridal shower. We
wanted to make this shower as much “Brandi” as possible, so we went straight
for the big hat garden party theme. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Everyone was asked to wear a big floppy hat or
whatever they happen to have in their hat stache. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The day of the shower we had crazy winds and
tornado watches.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With a forever-tight
hold on our dresses and maybe couple Marylyn Monroe moments the rain held off
and the shower turned out perfect. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
held the shower at Brandi’s best friends parents house, which is absolutely gorgeous
in it’s self. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I can’t take credit for
the décor; Layne (Brandi’s best friend) took our idea and turned it into this gorgeous
shower with some amazing details. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My
sister Jessica and I got there early to help her setup and our mom did all the
yummy food that morning. The beautiful cake and petit fours were made by Harps Bakery Deli in Bentonville. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So with some
serious teamwork we were able to pull of this beautiful fun filled shower.<o:p></o:p></div>

It has been a crazy last couple of weeks as Nate is in the end of his season and I am just starting my busy season. Weeks 19 and 20 have been by far the most change I have seen so far. All of the sudden she decided to pop on out and make herself more noticeable. Although the weight is piling on (10 lbs) at least I am starting to look pregnant and not like I just spent a week in the food court. None of my jeans button any more and finding anything I feel I look good in is impossible. Needless to say shopping is not so much fun any more. I have been on the search for a bra that actually fits for over 3 weeks now. 5+ store and 3 returns later I have decided I need to just go to one of the specialty store and get one. It may not be sexy but at least the damn thing will fit. Ladies if you have any suggestions please, don't hold back. No belly pictures this week since I have been out of town but here is one from my sister bridal shower.<br />

We had our 20 week appointment on Tuesday and baby girl is healthy and absolutely perfect already. I want to just stare at these pictures all day long. Everyone keeps saying she already looks like her daddy... of course that would be fine with me! :)<br />

Baby girl is moving around more and more with each passing week. I was told because of the positioning of my uterus I wouldn't be able to feel her till 20 weeks or later. At 15 weeks I was feeling little twitches and at 16 weeks they were full fledged kicks. I was laying on the couch one day and I could see her kick when I looked at my stomach so I called Nate over and tried to see if he could feel her. After a couple of minuets of patiently anticipating her next move our eyes got real big and I looked at him and he said "I felt her". Of course Nate thought it was really cool and I held myself back from breaking into tears. This defiantly made my week that Nate got to feel her so early.<br />

Now that we know Baby B is a she I am having a really hard time keeping myself off of Pinterest. I am so excited to start shopping and putting her nursery together!!<br />

Well all of those at home gender test were WRONG!! We went in expecting to hear boy and when the nurse told us girl I think we were both shocked. Nate continued to ask the tech if she was sure and she just kept telling him "I can't tell you 100% sure but 16 weeks a boy should have something" lol...... I think after he woke up the next morning it has set in and the surprise has wore off. Of course the next day I had to go to Columbia so I made a pit stop and bought a cute outfit. SO SO EXCITED!!<br />

I woke up last Monday with some pains in my lower back area. I have had kidney stone 3 other times and that is very similar to what it felt like just not as intense. So I chilled out all day and chugged lemon water like no ones business. The pain eventually went away the next and brought a whole new array of irritations. Lucky, I had a doctors appointment on Wednesday and was able to get some antibiotics to help with it all. Whew thank goodness that is all over. <br />
<br />
Sunday Nate and I decided to go out on a lunch date to Red Lobster (Nate has been talking bout their rolls for weeks now). When we got home we decided to do..... nothing. Then we got the urge to try some of the at home gender test we found online. Needless to say we are SOOO ready to find out what this baby is.<br />
<br />
Chinese Gender test: BOY<br />
Mayan Gender test: BOY<br />
Ring Gender test: BOY<br />
Baking Soda Gender test: ??? <br />
So for this one you have to pee in a cut with 2 tbs of baking soda, well the only baking soda that we had is the one that has been in our fridge for years (not sure if it is serving a purpose any more). So I did what the website said and got a little bit of fizz but not much. The results are supposedly if it fizzes its a boy and if it doesn't fizz its a girl.<br />

I was very tempted not to post this pictures. I really am happy I promise. Nate finds it funny to hold town the trigger to the camera and take 20 pictures in seconds and this "really" face happened to be the only one he got in focus. So there it is, starting to get a little somethin' something' there. (this is an evening picture also and I always look so much bigger in the evening)</div>

If you are like me you have every intensions of being on top of things and documenting every little thing. Well that intention for me lasted a whole week. I forgot, put it off, and forgot again. What's a girl to do? There are a million different ways that people are documenting their pregnancies these days. Of course there is that evil demon of Pinterst that sucks us all into these great ideas that we can usually never get done (at least this is the case for myself). When I found out I was pregnant like I said I was going to be on top of things. I created this journal for to fill out each week and that didn't happen, so I am passing this on to you!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here is what the download will look like AFTER you fill in your week and the baby size. (your download below this image)</div>

<b><br /></b>
<b>1st trimester.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
This first trimester has been really interesting. I am beyond excited to be adding to our family and having a little bean growing inside of me. People are always asking me how I feel about it and of course I am beyond excited. I think I have heard so many stories of other peoples experiences and mine just does not seem as exciting as theirs. Apparently there is supposed to be this "wow" moment when the clouds part and a giant beam of sun rays shine down on me..... Yeah ugh NO!! I must just be lame bc aside from my few symptoms I don't feel pregnant at all. I have experienced my fair share of emotions so far, from crying at seeing the little heartbeat and wanting to kill my husband simply because he was breathing my air. Needless to say this has been a pretty easy going 1st trimester.<br />
<br />
1. Amazon <span style="color: #e06666;">I'm Pregnant</span> and <span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #e06666;">What to expect when expecting</span>- The first couple weeks of pregnancy I could tell no one and I was going CRAZY. If you know me I am some what of a hypocondriate. I spend way to much time watching The Doctors and searching things online, which can make any sane person crazy. So to help keep myself off of the internet I bought these two book and found them to be very helpful. I'm Pregnant is a week by week guide and has lots of pictures which I love :). Every pregnant person I know has bought or read the What to expect when expiating, so of course I wanted it too.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">2. Water- Ugh, I hate I repeat I hate drink water!! Prior to the pregnancy I literally could go a whole day and not drink anything. Its just not something I ever think about and I am never thirsty. After visiting with the doctor last week I was told I am still not drinking enough water so since then my husband has turned into the water natzi! I understand he is trying to help but I feel like I could float a small yacht in my stomach. So because I know I am supposed to drink it and LOTS of it this is a must have. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">3. Motherhood <span style="color: #e06666;">Collagen Boosting Body Butter</span>- I was given this as a gift and I love it so far. Immediately after finding out I was pregnant I started searching which creams where the best for stretch marks. Well, there are like millions and I had no idea where to start. This lotion smells great and goes on awesome not leaving behind any sticky residue (which is a must for me). I know stretch marks are inevitable but surly if I bath in this stuff daily something will get "boosted".</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">4. Target <span style="color: #e06666;">C9 by Champions Bra</span>- This was a life saver. I found out I was pregnant a week after raiding the bra section at the New Year's Dillard's sale. Needless to say by the time I got them home nothing I had was fitting in them. This bra is so comfortable and has enough padding that I can wear it with regular tops and not look like I am packing a bread loaf under my shirt. SCORE </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">5. Pepsi- I know I know, I am not supposed to have caffeine. Well, after expressing my 4 day headache pain on Facebook multiple people told me to try some caffeine. So I did and BAM it worked. I can count on one hand the number of sodas I drank in the last year prior to pregnancy. I just don't drink it so I would have never guessed this helped my headache to go away. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">6. Walmart <span style="color: #e06666;">One-A-Day Prenatal</span>- This was the first thing I went and purchased and let me make on thing clear, I got the first one I saw on the shelf. I had no idea which one was "the best" and all that jazz but this one seems to work really well for me. I have had no sickness, little to no burping, and I feel great. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">7. Walmart <span style="color: #e06666;">Eggrolls</span>- I have eaten more egg rolls the last 2 months than I have eaten in my whole life. Oh man, they are so yummy. Pop them in the microwave for 45 seconds and BAM...... heaven. The ones I get are in the deli section at Walmart by the pre made subs (just incase you want to snag some). The brand pictured is not the brand I purchase but since I couldn't find a picture this one will have to do. Want an egg roll now?</span><br />

Well, the cat has been let out of the bag. Nate and I are expecting! Baby Breland will be here in September and we are both so excited. We found out at the beginning of January and waited till after our first appointment to tell our parents and family. It ended up working out perfect because Nate had baseball games in Conway, AR on Valentines day which meant that we got to give our moms the best Valentines Day present ever. But first I had to tell my sister. Somewhere along the way she made me promise to tell her first when we were pregnant, so I did and this is what happened.</div>

Every time I see this video I crack up laughing. Poor Chris just stands there smiling with a "what the hell is going on" look on his face. PRICELESS<br />
<br />
This is how we told our mothers. I found these adorable little things on Etsy and couldn't resist. Both little boxes also contained a note with the announcement and due date. There were lots of tears, jumping, and screaming following the realization of what was inside their "valentines day presents".<br />

I am right at the end of the 12th week now and thus far I have nothing to complain about. I have little to no symptoms what so ever aside from fatigue and having to go purchase some new bras (my doctor informed me that I had received the "golden ticket"). I have continued my same workout regimen as I had prior to pregnancy, although I will say some days were a little harder than others. Fatigue hit me hard at week 8 and didn't want to do anything let alone go workout. Also at this point all I wanted to eat was egg rolls, which is strange seeing that I rarely ever eat them in general.<br />
<br />
We had our 12 week appointment on Wednesday and got to hear the little heart beat again. Every time I hear it I am amazed that there is a little heartbeat inside of me and get quite emotional all at the same time.<br />

YEP! I really am not a fan of sushi at all, really the only time I eat it is when I visit one of my best friends in Arkansas. So this recipe was a throw together because I had cucumber that I really needed to use so this is what I came up with. Very yummy, light, and full of flavor. I will give your directions on how to make each separately. LETS DO THIS. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What you will need: </div>
<div>
- 1 cup quinoa </div>
<div>
- 1 cucumber (try to get one the same size all the way though)</div>
<div>
- 1 avocado </div>
<div>
- 1 can of tuna </div>
<div>
- red pepper flakes </div>
<div>
- chili powered </div>
<div>
- salt and pepper</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Make the quinoa as directed on the box. While that is cooling place avocado in a med bow and smash, after it is fully smashed add the can of tuna, dash of red pepper flakes, and chili power (set aside). Cut your cucumber in half use the largest side and start to scoop out the middle where the seeds are. I just used a butter knife and scrapped them out. With the other half start to peel on one side till you have enough at least 5 strips, cut in half. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9H2_dzjuy0y6wt0iYQSf2QsIcE4ASmIUDCD8eL228p3B3b017zwDi4my0l0-GqoEWHnsS_FH3JvHCm2dgTRgkv6rGXxSeNgKLNCZp3TAaEngONji-pA84I7gWbrp2ljAdFhIZ0X1uQwY/s1600/photo%5B4%5D.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9H2_dzjuy0y6wt0iYQSf2QsIcE4ASmIUDCD8eL228p3B3b017zwDi4my0l0-GqoEWHnsS_FH3JvHCm2dgTRgkv6rGXxSeNgKLNCZp3TAaEngONji-pA84I7gWbrp2ljAdFhIZ0X1uQwY/s640/photo%5B4%5D.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
(you can use a mandolin or a hand peeler which is what I used) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Small Roll) Once the quinoa is finished and cooled spread think layer on cookie sheet or cutting board. Roll avocado and tuna mixture into little balls and roll continuous on one side, you want to try and leave the two ends free of quinoa. Place roll in cucumber slices, this part is kind of tricky you have to be gentle but still get the cucumber wrapped tight. Continue till you have no mixture left. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Large Roll) Once the quinoa is finished and cooled mix about half a cup into the avocado tuna mixture. Then start stuffing the hallowed out cucumber. You will want to make sure it is packed in there pretty tight. Then slice and enjoy. </div>
<div>

Starting this blog a month or so before my journey began my intention was to use it to keep me motivated and accountable throughout. In doing so I found that posting to social media in general had kept me motivated and staving to reach my goal with an even bigger passion than I intended. Thus leading me to the point of this blog post, I am human I make mistakes, I fall, I post like a mad women to facebook, and I love taking pictures of myself. SO WHAT!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>My Facebook and Instagram post are annoying, pointless, and conceded.</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I have started on this journey for myself no one else. Like I said before though this journey I have realized how my point of view of others has changed. We all know that we care what we look like but I didn't realize just how much others care what you look like. I feel like as teenagers we grow up with this judgmental point of view, from what brand of cloths peoples are wearing to how much they weigh. NEWS FLASH it doesn't go away when you "grow up" everyday you are judging someone weather it be intentional or not. My post are a simple motivation to keep myself on track and document my progress, if I can motivate myself and maybe motivate just one other person it is worth it. So please do what you need to do to motivate yourself, those who don't like it will ignore it and those who care will help to empower you along the way. I j challenge you that next time you look at someone or their social media post and think the slightest though it in your head about them remember you don't know their story. Life is full of insecurities don't feed them. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>I act like I am perfect. </b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
Woah, this makes me laugh. If you know me at all you know I am so far from perfect it is unreal! I feel that some people think that with my post I am trying to make people thing I am this crazy healthy nut who eats only healthy things and wants to be super skinny. WRONG for starters just in the last 24 hrs I have eaten Reese's peanut butter cups and a grande Carmel macchiato. If you want to take the time to look up the amount of sugar and calories in two things you will find that I am not perfect. I have cheat days (usually Sunday) and some days when I just totally abandon what I am working toward. Sure some days I am like "damn I really should of eaten that" and others I think "I am working my ass off I can have a candy bar if I want it". We all have these little things that we fight with any journey SUGAR happens to be mine. So if you see me in the store stocking up on fruit this is my way of trying to defuse my crazy chocolate or sugar carvings. I do not want to be perceived as perfect, I want people to know that being healthy is a journey a lot of people start down and ultimately fail. If we open up and accept each other we can all be imperfect and reach our goals together. </div>

<div>
<b>To those of you working toward a goal.</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
No matter what the goal is don't let others judgments or self thoughts set you back. I saw a quote the other day that was so perfect. "Your setback is a platform for your comeback" so if you have a small or big setback in your goal just keep going. Unless you give up there isn't any goal that is out of reach. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I may not get to my fitness or even my business goal in the time frame I wanted who knows I may never get there (yeah I said it), but I can tell you one thing it is that I am going to continue to do it for me and kicked ass the whole way. </div>

In doing so doing it all naturally is very important to me. If you know me you know I am NOT a runner, quite frankly I would rather stand naked near a beehive than run. To motivate myself I signed up for a Tough Mudder on September 15, so I am being forced to train and run. This is where the little green pill packing a big punch came in.<br />

After entering a giveaway I won a sample of these powerful little pills. So for the first time this last weekend I ran over 2 miles, ALL AT ONCE. This is huge people, like I said I do not run. Not only did I run the 4 miles I had my best mile time with 7.39 mile. WHEW All I did was take the 30 pills 15-20 min before the workout and I could feel the benefit after mile two when I normally want to stop.<br />
<br />
30 PILLS WHAT? Exactly what I though but after reading about the product and given the fact that it 100% all natural I jumped on board. (keep reading more info below)<br />

These bites are 100% spirulina algea. This to me is huge, so not only is it 100% natural no questions asked. This mean that it is food not a supplement, awesome right? On top of that because algea is over 60% protein, the highest concentration of protein IN THE WORLD with 40 other nutritional goodies.<br />
