Good morning Kate. It sounds like you have a challenging week ahead of yourself, don't forget to pace yourself. 
Just a couple secs here....got my workout in (barely)...just a couple miles of Cardio Coach. Opted out of a workout last night. It was soooooooo hard to get out of bed this AM.
Have a great day.

Good morning all. Happy Monday..I guess? (Are mondays ever really happy??)
Im at work, just popping in to say good morning
I went to bed way too late last nite - 1130pm, and kept hitting snooze when 545am rolled around. Finally got up at 6 so i could be to work at 7.
Still trying to figure out my transportation tonite - uhaul with blankets and covered cab, or friends free pickup without that stuff (im just worried about rain, as it rains in fla ALL the time without warning..)
Hope everyone has a great day!

Morning girls
I hope everyone had a good weekend!! I took maternity pics last week and I am going to look at them today. I also have a doctor's appt. this am and I really need to go and preregister at the hospital.
Kate-Good luck with both the girls going to school. Too bad you have to spend your alone time doing office work.
Melanie-I read your post from last night and can we trade husbands? I can't get mine off of me
JenM- how exciting you are getting such a great deal on your furniture. If you use your co-workers truck you can always take your own blankets to cover everything up.
Susan-go and take a test!!!!!!!!!
I did Ripped and Chiseled this morning now it is time for a shower and get the boys to school.

-----------
The girls did so good this AM!!!
Gina had NO TEARS NO WHINING!!! she happily got on the bus so I am making that girl some cc cookies! This is truly something to celebrate!
Isabel didn't cry but she was really sad I left her. Poor thing had diarrhea this AM before we left and a horrible stomach ache when I left her at preschool. I hoep the poor thing doesn't have to go to the bathroom while I'm gone. I'll be anxious to get back to her.
My office plans didn't work out (long story) so I did BM2 cardio!!!!!! I was so sweaty and it felt so good! I had to modify quite a bit but I got an AWESOME cardio workout! Need to work on some preschool stuff for a board mtg tonight. bbl.............

Kate-I'm so glad Gina did well this morning! I'm sure Isabel was fine the second you left I know what you mean about being anxious to go back and get them. Good job on the workout. I get up at 5am to workout Yes I do go to a studio to get my maternity pics. I have done it with all 3 pg's and I am so glad I did.
Susan- sorry about the test hopefully it was just too soon.
Well Owen woke up with the stomach flu so I rescheduled going to look at my pics. I tried to reschedule my doctors appt but they couldn't get me in for 3 weeks so my mil is coming to sit with Owen. I hate leaving him when he is sick but I can go to the store and get him some popsicles.

Candra- good luck at the appt. i hope Owen feels better soon. I hope your photos are great
Kate - glad to hear the bus situation is getting better!
JenM- hope all goes well moving the stuff.
hello to everyone else.
I FINALLY got my first appt but darn it its just for paperwork. sigh! its sept 29th with a nurse. I wanted to hear the heartbeat. hopefully soon. Tricare just took forever to update my information. I thought my DH took care of that when we moved but I guess not. argh.
I seriously am in a slump for working out. Just cause I keep feeling a bit nauseous and its so hard to workout like that. I really want to get back into it.
Does anyone buy baby gear on craigslist? I just went to check it out and tons of stuff is listed daily. I may end up getting some stuff that way cause baby stuff is SO expensive!

Susan, Im sorry but I have NO CLUE what those acronyms mean!! Can soemone help??!!
Candra, Do you bare your belly for the pics? I think that is so cool! I wish I had it in me! Sorry about Owen - he'll enjoy some attn from Grandma though!
Calvillo, No sweat on not sweating! You'll be back at it in no time! Baby's just trying to tell you to rest! I had a 3-wk. spell that I think I worked out 2-3x. I was mortified, but am sure not any worse off than I would've been if I had worked out. Maybe just a nice walk???? We're so programmed as Cathletes to think "Imax3 or I'm a failure", but we (and I'm lecturing myself mostly here!) need to remember we are growing a baby and that in itself is a lot of work! The 29th will be here before you know it! Maybe the nurse will let you have a listen! Never have used Craig's List.
Thanks everybody for your well-wishes about Gina. She is such a sensitive little thing (gee, wonder where she gets it?!?!) and it breaks my heart to see her go thru this.
Isabel did awesome at preschool today! I'm sure there will be more separation issues (like EVERDAY last year!) but she enjoys being there so I feel good leaving her there. It's only 10 min away so if something DID come up we're not far at all. She was all full of stories of all of the fun she had. Phew!
Going to get Isabel down for a nap soon. I think I'll do some Classical Stretch. All of my housework is caught up - I feel like SuperMom today!

lol I was wondering what that was too. I was thinking it was about a pregnancy test. goodluck!
Thanks girlies! I will keep you posted.
I have been trying to study for my test tomorrow but having a hard time. I have my long class tonight and I am dreading it! Nothing like 4 hours of microbioloby! I do like the class but its sooooo long and I get sleepy.
Kate-Im so glad Isbel had a good day and Gina was happy this morning! Yayyy. Send some of those cookies my way!

Hi everyone. Not much time to post. Trying to stay focused with work, home, kids, etc. Working from home 2 days per week. Mimi is 2 months- sleeps from 9-5! She's almost 14 pounds. I left this past weekend to go to a U. of MIssouri football game with 12 of my college friends. So much fun and my friends were so great about helping me find places to pump. Husband did great with all 4 kids.
Working out 3-5 times per week. It is HARD to find time. I am thinking of aiming for more times per week even if it's just for 30 minutes. I've done some good ones though- drill max, imax2, ME/BC. I've also done a lot of 4 mile runs on the treadmill while the kids are in the YMCA nursery.
Here's a pic:

Hi girls! Sorry to be so scarce. I swear w/ the 2 hurricanes and trying to get this military stuff straight I was in a funk. I came and caught up often,but then didnt have time to post. I think things have settled down now!
Susan~sorry to hear of the bfn. : ( Maybe in the next few days you'll get a + Oh my gosh those science classes made me sleepy too. Nothing like a 4 hour class at night of all times.
Kate~good job on getting a great workout in!! Glad the girls did well at school today too!
Melanie~good job on your workout. I had a hard time getting up this morning too. \
Candra~that workout sounds good! I hope your pics turn out great! Please share when you get them! I just read further down where you didn't go see the pics. I hope Owen is feeling better.. poor guy.
Calvillo~ I am always searching craigslist and also if you go to www.groups.yahoo.com and search for freecycle and your town or the next biggest town over you can join the freecycle adn all the stuff listed there is FREE! That is even better.. baby stuff, food, furniture.. you name it! I am all about a deal or bargin. LOL
Kristan~sounds like you are doing great! Good for you on getting all those workouts in and w/ 4 kids! You ROCK!! Glad you go away to a game too for some fun. Way to go DH on keeping all the kids. Gosh she is such a cutie!!!
Okay so I have my next appt. on Thursday and we'll offically set the c/s, but as of now I am thinking it's the 20th of Oct. so just 5 weeks from today. I have been getting at least 1 walk in every day.. today I did 2.. 4 miles this am and 3 this evening. Feels great even though I am SLOW as can be. Gosh it's hard to go from running 6 miles in an hour to not being able to walk 4 in 1 hour.. I have went to the gym to and used the elliptical. That is awesome! The kids are doing great. We got the crib put together this weekend and I started organizing in her room. Still NO name.. DH just won't cooperate. LOL
Well I am going to do much better about posting. I just hate to check in and not do personals so I tend to read then not post. I pray things have slowed down and we won't get any more hurricanes. It's so much to prepare each time.

Kate ~ Great news about the girls!!
Melanie ~ I read on the other thread about the libido difference. We have that issue occ. but it is better since DH lost that awful job. Good timing because my libido is off the charts.
JenM ~ Hope the move went well.
Susan ~ Sorry about the BFN. I have to confess...... I enjoyed microbiology. It was so much fun growing critters.
Candra ~ I just asked about maternity photos on another forum I visit. I would love to have some taken. Love, love, love black & whites. I'd like to have DH and the two kiddos in the photo too.
I'll be back......... ok, DD was getting onto DS and fired him....... all is well again.
calvillo ~ when are you due? I apologize..... I am just not keeping track of due dates.
Kristan ~ Mimi is gorgeous!!! Has she been baptized yet? I am so bad about doing that in a timely manner.
I am seriously considering renting a doppler so I can listen to the FHR. I wouldn't overdo it with the question of safety and use time..... but occ. would listen. Once I detect fetal movement, I would return it. I dunno though..... I tend to be obsessive.
I haven't worked out for 4 weeks now, but the good news is the nausea is not as severe.
