SIX weekend!!!!

I have a SIX year old boy!!!! I can’t believe it…These six years have been a blast, crazy, interesting, emotional, stressful, loving, and amazing. I love you big boy! You keep me on my toes and you have taught me so many things over the past 6 years… including the first 5 elements on the periodic table =)

Pounds, Pounds, Pounds

Ugghhhh….as an adult, you hate the word. But when you have a newborn, you love the word! My baby boy is a growing maniac!! He had his 2 month check-up this past week and weighed 13.5 lbs. When he was born, he was tiny and was in the 25th percentile for weight – he has jumped to the 85th percentile and is still gaining an average of a pound a week. He loves to eat and the nurse called him ‘a sweet little bag of flour…a tad bit heavy and soft all over’

So funny! This is the ‘pre-smile’ face that I get to wake up to every day. He is such a happy baby and he loves to show off his double chin. He would just sit in my arms all day long and lay his head on my cheek while I walk around if I let him. Looooves to snuggle and loves his mama =)

Yes, I just had a baby which brings me to the pounds issue again. Today was the kick-off of my ‘get ready for summer’ exercise routine!!! Went to the Dr. last week and I am 10 lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight. Being an athlete my entire life, it is so hard to be out of shape, I cannot stand having any extra weight on my body. When I am in shape I have more energy, I have higher self esteem, and most of all, I am happier!!  So here it goes….

The way to start it off is a walk around the neighborhood while pushing a baby in a stroller with a toddler riding the outside up a ginormous hill!!!! I am super tired tonight and will sleep well.

I have no excuses now, the weather is beautiful – so a run or walk a day HAS to be on the schedule.

Happy Valentine’s Day!!!!!!

This is what I walked in to this morning after making breakfast for the boys…

Love is in the air today!! I love my babies, my husband, my wonderful friends, and my very blessed life.

…Not that I need Valentine’s Day to show me the love in my life…but it sure is fun to make an entire day of it!! Now off to snuggle with my babies and bake =)
