Workout is done -- Low Max blast premix with the weighted vest, then PUB (no abs, I get them in later today).
So I am taking Collin to preschool today -- am I a bad mom? I am going to do some shopping and cleaning.
Hope everyone has a nice day!

Happy Monday!
I'm getting ready to take Nevena on a playdate at the neighbor's then do some much needed shopping.
Today's workout will be either kickbox or pilates and some cardio, not sure. I'm in the phase 1 recovery week of P90X and am supposed to do yoga, I think, but I'm not a fan.
Gotta get back on the clean eating wagon, after the bad food weekend I had, blech!
Kate, hopin' for some happy news today
Katie, enjoy your day off!
Robin, at least there's no Monday morning madness

Good Morning Everyone!
I am at work today. Even though I work for a government contractor we don't get Columbus Day off. Instead I get a floating holidays to use whenever I want. So that's nice. Another busy day trying to get caught up and I hope to make some headway today. Maybe by Friday I will be caught up so I can focus on preparing for my vacation. Only 12 more days!!!!
Katie, great workout. You are not a bad Mom for taking Collin to preschool. You need your alone time so you can be a great mom.
Kate, come on Julia!!!!
Klaudia, I am not really a big fan of yoga either. It's not bad once in a while but I can't do it weekly.
Robin, I bet you are glad your kids have school. You don't need any more drama.
Steph, Happy Thanksgiving. I hope you are enjoying the day with your family.
Hi Emily, Nat & Angie!
w/o will be GS C&T, bonus cardio
b: oatmeal w/ almonds
s: banana
l: ?
s: chopped veggies w/ hummus, strawberries & yogurt
d: grilled chicken burger (no bun), sweet potato, veggies

Good morning,
Quick check in - ready to take Ryan to work.
Is it good news that Kate isn't around this morning?
Katie, I sent you a PM with my new videos asking if you could make me a new rotation. I'm doing Low Max this morning!
I'll be back a lot later this afternoon for a check in. I'll be gone most of the day.
****LABOR VIBES**** COME ON BABY!!

Ladies look Kate has not checked in yet
I wonder .....
Guess what happen to me. I went to do my w/o Power Hour and the DVD cracked. That is what I get for buying bootleg from Ebay. So I'm going to order a new power hour plus Cardio hits so that I will not have to pay for shipping.
My w/o today was Amy's In the Ring
b-egg whites
l-turkey and spinach salad
s-?
d-tenderloin and veggies
I'm going to watch my carbs for 2 days since I ate like a pig y-day.
Great w/o today ladies.

Ju-ju-JULIA!!!!!!
She's here! She's here!
Julia Kate was born last night around 7:20PM!!!!!!!!
I had my first contraction at 6:15, right after I made a HUGE turkey dinner for the fam. An hour later I pushed her out and caught her while on all fours on my bathroom floor! We tried to make it to the birth center but it happened so fast I couldn't get to the truck. The midwife got here shortly after I delivered the placenta.
The contractions started out 7 minutes apart, then all of the sudden they were 3 minutes apart. Then all of the sudden they were 1 minute apart and I knew I had to do it at home. I feel like SuperWoman!
Mike was in the bathroom with me but the poor guy....he was so scared! He was sweating so much it looked like he had just jumped in the lake. My mom had called 911, scared to death too, but when they got she was already delivered and everything was under control. They stayed for liability issues until my midwife got here and we sent them on their way.
Julia is a champion nurser and even slept thru the night for us!
Gina and Isabel are over the moon excited. Isabel can't keep her hands off of her! We're having them stay home from school today and maybe tomorrow too. Mike is being extra-helpful!
She weighs 7 lb, 14 oz! My biggest baby yet!
I will get a pic posted for you gals soon.
I hope you all have a GREAT day! We sure are!
She's here! She's here!

Oh, congratulations! I've been wondering about that baby! It sounds like all is well and I'm so pleased for all of you! I'd love to get together and see her when you're ready for that--no rush!
Klaudia, good to "see" you too. I was thinking I would join this check-in--would that be okay?

AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations Kate - welcome baby Julia. We'll make a cathelete out of you yet! Kate, what a story, I'm so proud to know you - you're inspiring! I can't wait to see pics of your precious baby.
Anne, welcome, hope you'll stick around - the ladies here are wonderful.
Robin, sorry about your DVD issues. I bought all mine from Amazon so hopefully they'll stand behind them.
Klaudia, I give you so much credit for sticking with the X. I just couldn't stand it! I tried so hard to like it b/c I know it's so good.
Colleen, hope you're having a good day at work.
Got through 6 out of 7 of the blasts for Low Max b/c i ran out of time. I only can leave the kids in the childcare for one hour. It was good though. First time I've done the "real" one.
Clif bar for bfast, out for lunch and dinner. I'm SO tired of eating out.
Robin, I forgot, I think you called me a saint for living in a hotel - you might want to take it back. I am living in a resort - a one bedroom condo with a huge kitchen, beautiful master bath, gorgeous views of the mountains, etc. I like to pretend that I'm "roughing" it.
OK! I'm SOOOOOO excited about that baby!!!

Welcome to the world Julia Kate!!!!!
Kate,
Your story is amazing! May God bless you, baby Julia Kate, Mike, Isabela and Gina! Please give your precious family hugs and kisses.
How are you feeling? Did you use your hypno birthing techniques or wasn't there enough time? I truly am in awe! What a story to tell! Your committment to a fit and healthy lifestyle certainly has paid off. Much love,
Shirl

Workout is done I did week 2 of the couch to 5k training program. My friend persuaded me to run in a local 5k in December, but it's been a few months since I actually ran for longer than 2 minutes at a time.
Eats have been good. I only had a bite of a cinnamon roll at Neve's playdate this morning.
b-all bran, coffee
s-banana, almonds
l-tuna, veggie soup
s-yogurt, raspberries
d-spaghetti squash w/marinara & parmesan, salad
