Mamas and WeeOnes - June 7-13

You ladies sure have been chatty over here!

Wendy - It's nice to see your posts talk about being with DH. Hope you guys all feel better soon.

Steph - Your post about putting away baby stuff made me sad too. 99% sure no more kids for us. P has been crawling for the last month and a half and it has been much busier having to watch her. You'll burn some extra calories following Charlie around that's for sure!

Kate - You go muscle woman!!

Hi Becky, Candra!!! good to "see" you , Jess, and Sydney!!

I did read through the posts, but short on time for personals. My ds is at his friend's house for a sleepover and I'm trying to take advantage of it. Off to do my wo for tonight. More UB. I'm going to do MM ub while dd helps me watch P. Probably won't be able to run for another few days. Ankle still swollen and bruised although I can put some weight on it now.

lisa, your dd is so helpful! that is wonderful!
youre smart to listen to your foot! its gotta be hard tho!!
 
Hi mamas!

Ate BADLY last night (let's just say, ice cream was involved:eek:), and this morning I weigh a pound and a half more. :eek: Also lifted really heavy, so maybe it's water weight. :eek: Hope so!!!

Today is a new day, though! Thinking about trying to go to a u-pick berry farm today, but the big boys are acting BAD. Hope everyone is having a nice Sunday!!
 
Stephanie.- I think i read an article by Cathe that said you can't gain a lb and 1/2 overnight of fat. probably water weight. I try to be possitive like that too the next day. no reason to continue to be bummed about it. I hope to do better this week too.

my SIL just left with my nephew. hes 9 mo. he's at the age that he likes to toss or unpack everything ha. He kept getting into stuff and emptying things out. he was too cute. I had to grab my basket of folded laundry when he started pulling out clothes ha. lil stinker. hes crawling everywhere and walking along furniture.
 
stephanie, i had an ic indulgence last night too!:eek::eek: ooooops! lets get back on it today!!!:D:D:D:D and girl!! you know your weight fluctuates for about 385 reasons .... in short, ....no worries what the scale says! :D
the berry farm sounds fun! i think im taking dds to the zoo tmrw.

jess, thats such a fun stage when theyre getting mobile! julias pulling up and rolls/turns to get where she wants. i love it! sounds like u enjoyed your company!

we had church this a.m. , now we're just enjoying a lazy sunday @ home! aaaahhhh! :D:D:D
 
Steph - I say water weight so no worries. I notice when I lift a lot my weight initially jumps up then in a few days it goes down.

Kate - P is crawling like crazy and picks at every little thing on the ground. I have to watch her like a hawk. I can't imagine what it's going to be like when she starts walking. An opportunity to burn more calories chasing them that's for sure.

Hi Jess!

Did MM UB last night and was able to up my weights so I was happy about that. Pool day and lunch planned at my parents' house. Waiting for ds to come back home from his friend's sleepover.

Lisa
 
my run is done!!! it is so hot & sunny.:mad: i was sweating like a pig!:D:D

lisa, wish i could see p tearin around on all 4s!:D neither of my big girls crawled. they went straight to walking at 10 & 9 months. id love to have a crawler, but i doubt i'll get one. :p j's more interested in pulling herself up than crawling.
 
Kate - Great job on the run!! You're going to kick butt on that 5K! I kind of like the idea of going straight to walking because they don't have to be on all fours on the yucky floors. I mean, the floor in our house isn't dirty, but you know what I mean? Crawling with their hands on places that people walk on with their feet all day. We can no longer use our cosleeper because P will pull herself up and I'm so afraid she will topple over the side. Our babies are growing so fast!!

:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

how on earth has it been 8 months already?
its like, if i hold her all day then somehow time should slow down! i try to savor every single moment & sweet baby smile .... yet somehow she continues to get older.
 
Kate -it just gets worse. my oldest is 11 and I'm still pinching myself. Its almost Noahs 6th bday. ugh! :( good job on the run :) mmmmmm ice cream.. sigh. I need to run by tcby.

hi Lisa and everyone else. Liam is asleep on my chest. I need to put him down and make some dinner. I really want to eat good this week. I need to get food ideas though and make a list so I get what I need at the grocery store.
 
jess-tcby sounds so good:p The one close to our house went out of business:( Everyone goes to coldstone:eek:

stephanie-maybe only weigh yourself once a week. Our weight fluctuates so much. Did you go and pick berries?

Kate-When is your 5k? You will be addicted to racing after you finish:eek: I want to savor every second w/ Ryder also. This first year is going by way too fast:(

Lisa-enjoy the pool!!

Hi Sydney!!

We went to church this am. I am going back to Target b/c I forgot to get a pump for the baby jogger tires:rolleyes: It's no fun running with flat tires. Even though last night during our run, Ryder decided he would rather be held than in his stroller. So I carried him and pushed the stroller with flat tires! Good times:p

Candra
 
JESS, i usually sit w/ my recipes sun night to plan for the week. helpss so much.
i love a baby sleeping on my chest. best feeling in the world.
i'll cry real ters when my babies get to db digits!

candra, i carrid j for the last half of our walk friday. huge semi freaked her out & stroller no more!:p
5k is saturday. im hoping for a big burst of energy at the end so i can tear thru the finish!:D

=
going out for a 2nd run tonight. w/ my sis this time. she hasnt ran in almost 2 weeks and wants to get one in tonight. i need the cal burn. lets just say im happy for a new week/fresh start!
 
No berry picking for me today. I was a meanie and made my bunch help me clean up. The bonus/play room was a MESS!!! I just got finished vacuuming and I'm WIPED. I now have to fix dinner. I'm thinking about taking a rest day, but I hate to get off of rotation. I feel like cleaning was a workout, and my back is a little tight today. We'll see. NO EXCUSES, I keep telling myself... WHERE does the time go???

Hope you all are having a good Sunday!!! Thanks for the vote on water weight! I agree. Back on track today! ;)
 
Stephanie, Nt sure of I should encourage you to rest or sweat....but ....

YOU CAN DO IT!!! Results don't happen by themselves!

or....

Don't beat yourself up if you need an unscheduled rest day. Listening to your body is what is important. You can push hard another day to make up for it.

How was that?!:p:p:p

And you are NOT a meanie!! This will clear your head and give your a fresh start for the week. You can always do the picking during the week when everyone is on the right frame of mind.

The 2nd run .... on the race course.... was just what I needed. I feel so recharged and ready to kick some butt this week!
 
Kate--WOW two runs in one day! Great job!! Thanks for the sweet words!! You're such a great support!! I wound up doing my CLX... NO excuses, right? I feel SO good for pushing through, and i needed that "me" time. I've started cherishing my workout time alone. I love my boys, but I so enjoy that time to myself. They are only allowed in the room if they exercise with me! LOL You're right about cleaning. My week will start off so much more smoothly with a clean house out of the way. I need to do laundry and some other house-keeping things this week -- like scrubbing scuffs/crayon marks off the walls. And we'll pick berries some other time, you're right.

Good night everyone!! :)
