It’s a zoo + TRX/kettlebell circuit
Hi friends! Howโs the day going? Hope youโre enjoying the day. So happy to hear you like the pumpkin pie brownies recipe! Please let me know if you give it a try.
The Pilot says our Costco membership is a waste, and I say 27oz jar of almond butter.
It certainly comes in handy when youโre baking multiple dishes that involve itโฆ or when you just really like a spoon covered with AB and chocolate chips. ๐
For my fellow skull-obsessed friends out there, I wanted to show you the fantastic skull we picked up this weekend. We were in Home Depot to get another plant for our living room since ours has perished (<โ = I killed it). When we saw this skull with a plant growing out of his head, we knew it had to happen.
Skull, I hope I can keep you alive.
Some adventures from lately:
since the Pilot was off on Monday, he came with me to my midwife appointment, and then we all headed to the zoo.
Itโs a good day when you get to pet goats. ๐
We walked around for a couple of hours, and it was perfect.
Livi got a kick out of the penguins swimming around. She has a pretty spot-on penguin impression. (She smacks her belly and makes the funniest face. Iโve never seen a penguin smack its belly, and it cracks me up every time.)
Yesterday, I had a chiropractor appointment and then wandered around PB for a little while.
I enjoy getting lost in Pangeaโs Outpost (such a fun spot if youโre visiting or live in the area). They have a boutique area, art, locally-made crafts and goodies, a yoga section with meditation books, kidsโ stuff, shoes, jewelry, and athletic apparel.
Need this shirt in my life:
Liv and I are going to hit up the library, and then itโs to the gym for some treadmill time. A few friends have asked for the TRX circuit Iโve been doing lately, so I thought Iโd post it if youโre looking to change things up a bit.
Itโs a fast workout using a superset kind of style with antagonist muscle groups. Quickly move through the circuit from one exercise to the next. When you finish one round, rest for about 1 minute to let your heart rate recover, and repeat up to 2 more times.

Let me know if you give it a try!

Latest on the Family page here. <3 Thank you so much for all of your wonderful comments on this post.
Haha! That’s exactly why I keep my membership. To fill the nut butter obsession!
worth it right there! and the giant bags of hemp seeds ๐
Just a side note–how comfortable are those Reebok shoes? They were literally the only things I could wear in my final days of pregnancy because my feet were so swollen and uncomfortable!
I love the SD zoo! It’s so beautiful and so much fun! I love that shirt too! I’m usually not a skull fan, but I really like how colorful your new one is! I’m not much good at keeping plants alive so I’d probably kill it, but I’ll cross my fingers that yours lives a long time! I think a Costco membership might be worth it for the almond butter and chia seeds alone…I have my parents bring me a few jars every time they visit me ๐
apparently you just need to soak it in water every 2 weeks, so let’s see if i can manage that hahah
Haha I wish you lots of luck!
I’m not necessarily a skull fan, but that one is great!
I love Costco! When Josh and I moved to Omaha the first thing we did on our first day was get a Costco membership. haha The samples suck me in as much as the deals.
the samples are the best part ๐
Costco is never a waste! It’s only me, hubby and kitties and we are at Costco weekly for stuff!
we should go there more often! they have so much good stuff
OMG I never even thought to get almond butter at costco!! Adding that to my list for the next trip ๐
I love that skull plant I am going to make a trip to Home Depot to get one. You baby bump looks adorable. Thanks for sharing the workout I may give it a try. Thanks

Hey! We both live in San Diegoโฆ wanna take me to Costco sometime? Heehee, totally kidding, but seriously, I miss Costco! My parents take me when they visit, but I donโt have a membership with me. I love their muffins mainly!
I need to break down and get a Costco membership! They have so many great deals and yes to giant jars of almond butter! We love zoos and the San Diego one looks amazing!
we don’t have Costco in South Carolina. We have Sams club. We easily get our moneys worth. With a family of 6, we get TP, monsters, paper plates (less to clean), coffee, red solo cups, snack cookies for my husband. I wish ours had the good almond butter. But it has HUGE jars of Sabra hummus ๐ I love hummus.
Liv in that dress ๐ she is a doll!
Side note: I remember when that Pangea Outlet was a music store ๐
I saw the cutest skulls at Joann fabric the other day!! Really kicking myself for not buying them… 50% off right now
So jealous you’re all still rocking sleeveless and dresses. We had to succumb to the cold and turn the heat on this morning.
