Daily Yoga and Stretching (morning & through-out day)

My Yoga and Stretching are an essential part of my everyday. 

I will share my neck focused stretch routine...I do stretch as often as possible through out the day.
(below is the order I prefer to use)
  • Starting with leaning my head down first
  • Rotate towards a side leading the stretches downwards with my hand at each of the four side points (right and tilted-right; tilted-left and left) with switching hands as I go to another side (right sides, right hand; left sides, left hand)
  • Slowly shrug and rotate Shoulders and Neck back and forth
  • Cup my neck, tilting my chin up... an gentle pull upwards to stretch
  • Stretch, rotate and shake out tension from Wrists
  • Stretch, rotate and lengthen Arms
  • Massaging my neckline helps complete the process 
Focus points for stretching out my whole body:
  1. Neck
  2. Abs
  3. Arms
  4. Chest
  5. Back
  6. Hips
  7. Legs 
  8. Ankles
Here is my son a couple years ago, coming down from a (helped by my husband) handstand!

I LOVE Yoga and Stretching Daily... I do alternative yoga moves since I'm 9 months pregnant but it all works great!

Cleaning House

My baby boy is due so soon, I need to be ready... I am in the cleaning mode more often.

Now that I am not sick, I can get things back into order!

I am a Stay at home mom, home organizer & house cleaner.

This is part of our kitchen after some work but before I am done with it.... coming along quite well.

I'm an Early Bird Today

My husband has been working early hours now and being 9 months pregnant I get up to use the restroom early, today I decided to stay up! I am having a ultrasound today since our baby boy is measuring bigger than they think he should. Although I measured and he seems fine to me, but I would love to see him inside me again and make sure he will "fit" for natural birth. I have only had natural births, I do not like the idea of a C-section. Hopefully everything will be "normal".

It is my husband's Birthday today! The big 28... he is a wonderful man!

I am going to enjoy a luxury bath this morning... Right after I update my TO DO LIST.
