Tenleigh's First Easter

Happy Easter from the Corbett's!

Tenleigh made it all the way through Easter mass without much of a peep.  She did decide she was hungry about 30 minutes in, but after a quick snack was back to snoozing and checking out her surroundings (which is good, because mass was PACKED)

I designed our Easter table, and with the help of some "pinspiration", here is what we ended up with:

Here are a few picks of our lil bunny.  

Enjoy!

She got a dolly (precious moment prayer pal), a Minnie Mouse toy fan, and some new threads delivered to her Easter basket.  Thanks Easter Bunny :)

Love, 

Jay, Jenna & Tenleigh

The journey continues

Another 2 lbs down this week!  That makes the total loss at 25.  I actually have been able to fit into two pairs of my "pre-preggs" jeans... Yay!  Pretty excited about my progress given the fact that I still can't run/workout.  

I have thrown around the idea if going to the gym to walk on treadmill for like 15-20 minutes a day.  But at this point, I feel like I'm lucky if I can get a shower in, and when I have a free 20 minutes, my option is always to relax or try and nap.  I'm hoping since the babe is almost a month old, she will start settling into some better sleeping habits.  We shall see :)

I am getting pretty anxious to be able to work out again.  Yet...I know that when that happens, my time at home on maternity leave will be close to coming to an end.  Not quite ready to think about that yet, so I guess I'll be finding some home toning excercises to do at home for now :)

I'll update on progress next week!

The journey back

And so begins my journey back to beach bod.  I checked out my countdown today and time is 'a tick'n.  

Over the course of my pregnancy, I gained 40 lbs (apparently 9 lbs of that was a babe, lol). I would like to credit going 8 days overdue for part of that gain.  At about 38.5 weeks you begin to throw in the "I'm going to really watch what I'm eating" towel.  At 41 weeks, that towel is long gone :) 

As of today, 23 lbs of that gain has left the building, yay! Not bad for only being 2 weeks postpardum.  But I still have 17 lbs to go. Here is a pic comparison of the day I left for the hospital vs. today.  

I haven't been cleared to workout again, at least not yet.  I visit my OB tomorrow and I'm hoping that the stitches from my c-section are looking good enough for at least some light exercise.  I'm feeling pretty great for just having surgery two weeks ago, so I'm hoping that's a good sign.  I was able to stop taking pain pills early and don't have any pain in my incision area.  *fingers crossed*

Today we took Tenleigh on her first walk. She was LOVING it :). It was so nice out!

Guess we will be doing lots of this until I get cleared for more intense workouts.  

Until next time, 

Jenna
