Things I’m Loving Right Now

How do you decide what to buy, eat , watch or listen to? I’m big on word of mouth and so I find it fun to read posts about what people are digging at the moment and it’s also fun to write them! Here’s the top things I’m loving right now:

  1. Game of Thrones. Every time I get super into a show (past favorites include the Walking Dead and Breaking Bad), I claim its the best show ever. This time I seriously think I found the best.show.ever. We’re just about to start Season 5 and I’m sad that we’ll finally be caught up and have to wait all summer for another season to come out!

    Don't ever get attached to a character.

  2. Trader Joe’s Peanut Butter Tracks Ice Cream. This is totally a pregnancy indulgence and I almost wish I had never discovered it, but it’s delicious! I definitely eat this several nights  week and totally am ok with it!
  3. Pregnant Chicken. Every week I get two emails with updates on how my baby is progressing. One is from BabyCenter and is informative and frankly, a bit dry (I’m also always baffled by the fruit comparisons which seem totally random). The other is from Pregnant Chicken and is always straight to the point and hilarious. I read them out loud to Mike every Friday and we always have a good laugh. This is why you may sometimes see some unconventional comparisons on my weekly chalk board bump dates such as our baby is as big as a barbie doll or our baby is as big as an iPhone.

  4. Beautycounter . I think a lot about what I put in my body via food and how I treat my body via exercise, but I sometimes forget that I also put a lot of things ON my body. My friend Ashley introduced me to Beautycounter . The average woman puts 12-20 chemicals on her skin every SINGLE day via cosmetics, lotion, soaps and more and sadly a lot of those chemicals are toxic (check out ewg.org to find out how toxic each of your most commonly used products are). Beautycounter is a company that produces natural beauty products that won’t harm you or the environment. Although I did switch to a natural deodorant and sunscreen within the last few years and I made sure to purchase an organic, non-toxic belly butter for my growing belly, I haven’t thought twice about the majority of the products I put on my skin. Late is better than never!
  5. For Two Fitness. My “Running for Two” and “Sweating for Two” tanks not only illicit a lot of compliments when I wear them, but they are so comfortable! They are by far my most flattering and comfy pregnancy workout tanks (or of any kind of tank for that matter). I bought both of mine during various sales which helped with the hefty price tag (but either way, totally worth it!).

    I’m all over The Walking Dead right now!!…and I know what you mean about ‘the best show ever’ award but I do think it goes to Breaking Bad…of course I have yet to start watching GOT 🙂
    I love the pregnant chicken updates! So much better then the bean comparisons.
    I’m loving my new Orange Mud hydration pack. Just received it in the mail and, although I hate carrying water on runs, it’s a must.
    Happy Friday!

    Food
    Farm fresh fruit that I pick myself. I have found couple farms that although are not organic certified, do not use chemicals in ground and do not spray their plants.
    Whole Foods peanut sauce. I love it with pasta or as a dip for grilled chicken.
    Beauty counter
    Not sure it counts here, but natural bug spray, hate Mosquitos, so glad that friend shared a recipe for a natural spray.
    P.s. Your title actually made me think that I loved the pregnancy period you are in right now with both my boys. It was the most comfortable and relaxed time. Hope it is also true for you. Enjoy your time!

      I’m loving fresh fruit, especially peaches, right now! And yes, I keep saying I’m on the honeymoon phase of pregnancy!

    Game of Thrones is SO GOOD! It is one of my favorites, particularly because I love the different stories happening all at once and you really NEVER know what is going to happen next. Just wait until you get into Season 5.

    Thank you for introducing me to pregnant chicken.

    I wear my For Two Fitness shirts all the time. They are so comfortable and continue to fit perfectly over my growing belly. The rushing on the sides is key!

      Pregnant chicken has a ton of funny articles too in addition to the weekly updates but I’m sure you already figured that out! 🙂
