Bohemian Florals

BLOUSE | DENIM | BOOTIES

Bohemian floral prints are the BEST floral prints. This affordable top is UNDER $20 and is so cute for regular wear, or maternity wear. This flowing blouse has plenty of room for a growing bump, or can be worn tucked in with high waisted jeans for my non pregnant friends. I have a feeling I’ll be wearing a lot of non-maternity pieces during my pregnancy, so stay tuned for how I incorporate those styles into my every day outfits. For now, I’ll be sporting this bohemian floral print blouse for many spring days ahead.

Early Pregnancy Workout Routine

WEARING FABLETICS 

I’ve always been a cardio addict, so it’s a given that in my early pregnancy, cardio is a major part of my workout routine. Running and walking are my favorite forms of exercise, so every day of the work week, I walk about 20 minutes at a fast pace on my home treadmill. And for those of you who follow me on social media, you know I walk to Wheel of Fortune, every single night.

Call me old school, but there’s nothing like “America’s Game” and a good ol’ sweat. After cardio, I’ve added in an arms circuit with my hand weights. I only use the 5 pound weights to do a circuit of 5 different arm exercises. Depending on my exhaustion level, I will do between 3 – 5 repetitions of this circuit. All together, my early pregnancy workout routine lasts about 45 minutes.

Considering I’m in two weddings right after I am due to give birth, I’m focusing on a healthy pregnant body, and a strong pregnant body. I also want to maintain a workout routine throughout my pregnancy to maintain muscle and energy. I think it’s crucial that me and my body are at our best for Baby Sharp.

Starting late last year, Fabletics is the only activewear I really like to wear. The quality, comfort, and durability of their pieces keep me coming back for more. I definitely intend to keep Fabletics apart of my workout wardrobe throughout my pregnancy, and sizing up when needed. Today’s set is a Medium, and fits perfectly. Plus, how cute are these leggings? You will definitely see me out of the house rocking this look.

I am no workout professional, in fact, most of my exercises are borrowed from my dear friend and personal trainer, Mike Krajewski. He taught me pretty much everything I know, especially when it comes to working on my upper body strength. If you guys are interested, I will keep you in the loop on my workout routines for the next 6 months of navigating pregnancy, and then post-pregnancy. Also, I will continue to share my Fabletics looks each month. And definitely tune in to my Instastories for all of my workout shenanigans.

We’re Having A Baby!

What a difference a year makes! If this isn’t the work of God, I truly don’t know what is. On this exact day last year, Evan and I were given news that would change our lives forever. Today we get to give the EXCITING news that will again, change our lives forever.

We are beyond thrilled to announce that we will be bringing a sweet life into this world in August. I’ve never been more grateful, excited, and nervous in my entire life. God is trusting the two of us with the most special gift. I can’t wait to tell this sweet little bean all about his or her Dad, and how remarkable he is and how fortunate I am to do life with him and now raise a baby with him.

I wasn’t sure we’d ever see this day, but I can officially scream it to the world, I’M GOING TO BE A MOM! Thank you to every single one of you who has impacted our lives this last year, prayed for us, loved us, and shown us what true friendship is. We are thrilled to bring our little babe into a world with all of you.

XO, Alex & Evan (and Baby Sharp)
