My score was 60 reps! I didn't end up getting 45kg over my head...bugger :( I had a few attempts but I think my technique was lacking which I suppose was understandable seeing I haven't done any heavy snatches over the course of the pregnancy so happy enough..well kind of. Are we ever happy with our performances? I think its human nature to think of how you could of done better isn't it? I think that the day I don't think like this is the day its all over and I call it quits and find another hobby.

I'm trying to not expect too much of myself at the moment but that's hard. I want to be magically back where I was 9 months ago now. Trying to get my head around all the work I have to do to get back there and it is a little overwhelming. I haven't trained as much as I thought I would of so far. I have to make an effort to get something in each day. Maybe I'll start running again a little bit. Just a a few 5k's here and there, nothing like I used to do. I'm really finding that my cardio is lacking at the moment and Im craving something huffy and puffy. I think I need to run, I feel ok so maybe I'll give it a go sometime this week...hmmm

Little Princess Jetta is going well. She's the cutest :) She's like my little dolly, I get to play dress ups with her. Here's a recent pic of her...

Jetta had her very first photo shoot with Trudy from 'Imagine by Trudes'. Thanks Trudes :) She loved it, she was a bit of a diva though and wasn't keen on all the costume changes haha I think this one is my favourite :)

Here's the link to Trudy's blogspot.
