180 reps workout
Good morning! Hope you’re all enjoying the day so far. I can already tell my blog schedule is going to be a bit erratic over the next couple of days as we get unpacked and settled. Thank you for your understanding <3
We made it!
Most of our household goods made it, too 😉
Mom, Trevor and Mik came to San Diego with us to help unpack. We spent the morning hanging out at the new place while the movers unloaded the moving truck and put the large furniture pieces together.
A quick and delicious lunch before Livi’s nap and the unpacking extravaganza.
(Sashimi salad! Welcome to California, indeed.)
(Wearing my napkin like a cape; it was a little chilly in the shade)
We’re about halfway through the boxes, and everything is starting to find its place. I am IN LOVE with our San Diego home. There’s a grassy area for Livi and the dogs to run free, a beautiful patio with citrus trees and plants, and the home itself is historic with recent renovations. The best part: we can walk to the beach.
Before I go, meet the Lion Cat. I sang “Circle of Life” to him before I took his photo.
Have a great day <3
xoxo

Something to do:
This morning, I thought I’d share a quick workout I did on base. 180 reps, but the reps FLY BY and you’re left in a pool of sweat. Hope you enjoy 🙂 As always, talk to a doc before making any fitness changes. Honor your body and modify as needed.
For the pushup + spinal balance, you’ll complete one full pushup before coming into plank position. From here, extend one arm out in front of you and the opposite leg. For your next pushup, you’ll come into plank and do the other side. This is an exercise that translates well if you’re modifying, in this case, performing pushups on your knees. You’ll do your modified pushup, then come into a tabletop position before extending one arm and the opposite leg.

Omg I love lion cat! Haha Who’s is he?
I’m so jealous you can walk to the beach! We definitely cannot do that anywhere in Omaha! ;p
I am so jealous! I do hope you share pictures of your new home and city.
How lucky to be able to walk to the beach everyday.
Livi is lucky and the dogs too!
When you say heavy squats, I assume you mean squats with a bar/weights? Or have I missed a trick?
Amazing workout! I cannot wait to do it tomorrow 🙂 I love SAN DIEGO and am so envious that you now live there. When we move from Thailand, I am unsure of when and where but I hope to live in San Diego at some point in my life. My favorite area is La Jolla and I hope you go and visit the True Foods Kitchen there it is marvelous 🙂
Lots of Love C
Liv with those sunnies and the cape!! She looks like such a diva. Hope you settle in quickly!
Beautiful pictures!!! Happy new home to your family! 🙂

And thanks…now I have that song stuck in my head….

I just have to say that I really like your phonetic spelling of that song, because it translates so perfectly in my head.

Welcome to beautiful San Diego!! I love it here! Are you guys close to Ocean Beach (I was trying to tell from the pics, but it’s hard to tell since we have so many beaches here ;)? Anyways, welcome! You’re going to love it here! 🙂
You can walk to the beach? That’s the best house ever! I can’t wait to hear more about the new digs!
I am insanely jealous that you can walk to the beach! That is amazing! And Olivia looks so darn adorable in those glasses!

Gorgeous pictures… so jealous of your beach location! Good luck unpacking! Love the pic of Livi 🙂
My parents totally did the napkin cape for me when I was little! Classic! 🙂
Omg, that pic of Olivia in the napkin cape is both hilarious and adorable. She looks like a little lady 🙂
It sounds like you got a primo location–walking distance to the beach, what more could you want! And the lion cat is the cherry on top haha
Yay! You made it! I can’t believe you’re so close to the beach! Amazing!
Good luck with the rest of your unpacking.

The ocean! So jealous! I am so glad everything is working out smoothly 🙂 XOXO
What beautiful views. Welcome to your new home, fellow Californian! 🙂
What beautiful views. Welcome to your new home, fellow Californian! 🙂
Good luck with unpacking and getting settled in 🙂 I must say I am jealous, I absolutely love everything about San Diego. After watching the sun set on the beach in La Jolla, I know I wouldn’t have any trouble living there.
One of my good friends is just opening up an athletic club in San Diego. It is called Baja Body Athletic Club .. .They are doing anti gravity yoga classes and their beach type workouts (they just delivered 50 tons of sand to their club last week. I think you would love it there! They have a facebook page live. My friend’s name is Nicole Graves (her husband Co-owner is Van Graves). . and they have an adorable son around your daughter’s age. I wished I live closer. . .(from Wisconsin). . .All of their offerings look amazing!!!!
I hope you settle in well!!!!
no way! i can’t wait to check it out!
Livi looks like a total celeb with her cape and sunnies. I’m glad you guys made it safe and sound! Can’t wait for the new adventure!
Oh my gosh — those photos of the beach! So jealous!! 🙂
Hope your unpacking & settling in is going well!
So jealous of your new place! Looks like it will be so lovely :). Best of luck with all the unpacking!
Welcome to California! I’m so glad you love your new place! Lion cat is amazing too.
House tour!
Double vote!
You made it!! How exciting! Welcome to your new home!
I only had one Gina sighting(in front of the Green Monkey) while you were here in Tucson but I didn’t have the nerve to say Hello. I got pregnant shortly after Livi was born so I read EVERYTHING you posted about workouts while pregnant, eating, making her food, etc. Thanks for doing what you do– you help more people than you’ll probably ever know. Good Luck in San Diego.
thank you so much, sharon! (wish you would have said hi, too! i’ll be back often to visit)
thank you for reading and hope you and your family are doing well <3
xoxo
Love the lion cat! We have a very furry cat and I always joke to my husband about shaving him like that.
Glad you made it – those views are amazing!
So exciting! Love that you’re close to the beach, too. <3 Enjoy your new home!
ahhh california!!! and you are by the beach!! amazing!! i have family in sd too. my uncle is in the navy. i love visiting them!!
My mom has our cat shaved like that when I was in the 4th grade – right when The Lion King came out. Oh my gosh, at the time I basically thought it was the coolest thing ever! He was an orange cat too, ahh I love it. Glad you are loving your new place!!
Echoing what everyone else is probably saying–sounds perfect, especially the walk to the beach. :]
