Briee & Shopaholic:
You two need to continue to post & encourage us, despite you pregnancy/nonpregnancy status!!!

Confessions:
I'm NOT enjoying this pregnancy this time at all. I"m sick, tired, grumpy, and feel like I"m not there for the rest of my family. I'm counting the time. I'm 1/4 done!!!! Yahoo. I don't remember feeling this awful in the past. With my first pregnancy I kept saying, "Pregnancy is overrated". With my 2nd pregnancy I kept a positive outlook b/c I knew I wanted to have another one right away & I didn't want to scare DH away. This time I don't even care. I don't feel good, and so I don't act like I feel good. I MUST get my attitude in check. If anything, you gals can use this opportunity to be happy that you're NOT pregnant.

Sun: 5 mile walk
Mon: none
Tue: Imax2 intervals 1-7 + core max #2

Hey Mel. I was that way with baby number 6. I've never enjoyed being pregnant, but baby number 6 was kind of tough on everything. We will stay here to encourage you and keep you POSITIVE. You are growing a wonderful little being in there and this period of time shall pass and you will have your beautiful baby!!! Seems like with Noah, my energy dropped immediately and I was soooo discouraged with workouts, but as I look back, it was really not long and then my workouts resumed and I was back in the swing. Just SEEMS like longer while your in the middle of it. Send some prego pictures when you start "growing".

Also...KEEP TAKING NAPS whenever Justin does and look at them as "baby workouts".

Hi all,
Thanks everyone for your support. I think I am going through my left out/poor me phase. I will start this week's post when I can.

Maggie, It sounds like Bardric is slimming down. Alexis weighs about 19 pounds and is catching up to him in weight. I hear girls talk more than boys(what a shocker huh?). Alexis is quite a talker in her own language. "aughter"-water, "bubba"-sippy cup, momma, dadda , doggie etc. She is beginning to climb more and more and loves to dance.
Melanie, it must be tiring having a toddler, working almost full time and being pregnant. Do what you can.
Briee, thanks for the story. I forget are you in Illinois? My sister lives in Buffalo Grove, which is very jewish.
Autumn, how are you? Please keep using us for support.

My weight continues to flexuate by 2 pounds which frustrates me.
