Well, Alexis is almost 3 months old. she remains petite fitting in her 0-3 month outfits. She continues to sleep better at night except for last Sunday night when she decided to awake and cry from 1-4 Am. As stated in my other post, Alexis is refusing to take the bottle which is stressing me out. my holiday shopping is almost done, yeah!
My energy level is good and I only have about 2-3 pounds to go. Workouts for the week:
Sunday-Imax 2
Monday-power hour
Tues-Mindy-Interval express+I want that body -abs-2nd seg.
Wed-Firm-total body shaping mix+I want that body arms-2nd seg.
Thurs-Firm-super cardio
Fri-super sculpt-firm+ step heaven-circuit section
Sat-Franny Benedetto-cia 9905-step plus abs from Firm max. cardio + abs
 
Ugh! I'm sick with some kind of gut bug today. I hope Bardric doesn't get it, but so far he seems fine. All the signs were there that something wasn't right--Friday by the end of IMAX II I felt dizzy and yesterday I made it through MIS, but felt weak. So today I woke up full blown sick and did not work out. I probably shouldn't tomorrow either, but I'm feeling better tonight, so maybe...

Shopaholic--Sorry about the bottle. But the good thing is you know she can do it, so maybe when you go back to work, she will take it if she is hungry enough. It will just be unpleasant for whoever is taking care of her because it is so hard to listen to a baby cry for a long time (at least it is for me).

A good friend of mine had a 6 1/2 lb baby this week and she looked so tiny and dainty next to our "little" guy. (our girls call him "grub"--eeeeew!:p )

look forward to hearing from some of you other ladies too
take care

I'm feeling good because I got in 5 workouts this week! I have big plans for cleaning up my diet - soon! I'm a vegetarian and I try to eat lots of vegetables, but when there's hardly any food in the house (which happens a lot since I've had my baby) I just end up eating cereal or sweets. My goal is to cut down on the sweets and do more meal planning.

Mon- none
Tue- Rhythmic Step
Wed- Pyramid Bonus Combo
Thu- Imax 2
Fri- Interval Max
Sat- Pyramid Bonus Combo
Sun- rest

My DVDs arrive on Friday and I am soooo excited!

Also, Maxwell continues to sleep through the night. He is such a good baby at night. We can even put him in his crib while he is still awake and he goes to sleep. Since he was born, we have used a Tranquil Moments sound machine from Brookstone. We leave it on all night and it has really helped him to sleep.
 
Hi everyone.
Thought I'd post my workout week, since I just finished.

Thurs 4--Power Hour
Fri 5--IMAX II
Sat 6--MIS
Sun 7--Rest
Mon 8--C&W
Tues 9--Body Max, parts 1 and 2
Tomorrow--Rest

You guys both have dvd's right? I'm still in the stone age with videos. And since I bought almost the entire Cathe catalog last year, I won't be getting the bb series anytime soon;( . Oh well, gives me something to look forward too.

Bardric rolled over yesterday--back to front(with no help from his enthusiastic siblings)

take care
Maggie
