Happy Easter Mommies

Is everyone trying to stay away from the bunny so they can lose the rest of their baby weight?

We had Rylans christening today which was really nice. Its a bad thing to say but we don't really go to church so we went to my parents house and had him christened in their church (where I grew up) I do have to start taking him to church though so hopefully when I am not so tired on Sunday mornings we will be able to go.
There were alot of people at my parents house for dinner.It was a nice time b/c I got to see a few of my moms family that I don't get to see very often.

His sleeping as been a little better this week. One night he slept until 6! but I still had to get up at 5:45 to pump milk b/c I was so full.I have come to realize that it will be a long time before I get a full nights sleep b/c if he isn't eating, I am still uncomfortable and leaking all over the bed sheets!

My workout schedule was good this week but I am only down another .6 of a pound. I am now 3 lbs from my pre preg weight but every second week I lose good and this is that week. I may get down to my pre preg weight this week!!! Woo HOO!!!!

Sun: 9 mile run
Mon: Imax 2/GS chest and Tri
Tues: 4 mile run/GS B,S&B
Wed: 4 mile run & HSC
Thurs: 3 mile run & abs
Fri: DM and 2 mile run/abs
Sat: 3 mile run and abs

It was also a weird week for us b/c DH's store was broken into on Wed night and alot of inventory was stolen.In order for them to get the insurance money they have to do a full inventory count and they can't open the store until its done! So he as been really busy with that and I have been home alone with the baby...quit lonely actually but there really isn't anything I can do about that.

Anyway, I hope everyone as a good week and I will check back later!

Hello!
Hope you all had a great weekend, and a good Monday.
Lori, oh my gosh, I'm so sorry to hear about your husband's store, that is just terrible. Did they catch who broke in? I know it is tough to be home a lot with the baby, so I hope he'll be able to be home with you more soon. Sounds like your weight loss is going awesome! Congratulations!

I still need to lose 10lbs, but do feel like I'm making progress with the weight loss and clean eating. I did mess up with the eating a bit this weekend with Easter (darn candy), and couldn't resist cheetoh's yesterday. Oh well, can't beat myself up. It's a new week, and I'm really focusing on trying to get 5fruits and 5 veggies. It's hard, but I think I can do it.

As far as work outs, was able to get 4 in last week, so hoping to get 5 this week. I love Cathe's Body Fusion and Low Impact Step, once I master those, I want to try to move up to something more challenging. Right now, those are tough for me and I definitely feel like they are helping me to lose weight. Doing pilates for abs, and am going to try some ab work on the ball as well. Okay, Ryan is crying, better go get the little guy (he's doing great by the way). Here's what I squeezed in last week:

Monday – Rest Day
Tuesday – Pick Your Level Weight Loss Pilates (30min)
Wednesday – Cathe F. Body Fusion (50min)
Thursday – Rest Day
Friday – Elliptical intervals (40min)
Saturday – Rest Day
Sunday – Crunch Super Slimdown (Pilates/Yoga - 40min)

Have a great rest of the week everyone

Hi mommies,

Sorry, that I am checking in late again this week. I didn't check in at all last week. I got back from Germany last Tuesday and it took me a while and Heidi to get over the jet lag. We had such a wonderful time with my parents and they just adore Heidi and were so sad that we were leaving again. We are trying to go back in August for 2 weeks, but I have to convince my husband first ;-) . He'll have to stay here .

Anyway, I got 3 workouts in last week but I am not sure when and what so I leave it with that, hehe.

Heidi is doing fine, I think I got her back in her normal routine. She sleeps 9 - 10 hours at night now, it is wonderful.

Lori - I am glad that Rylan is sleeping a little bit better for you now. Sorry to hear that someone broke into your husband's store, that bites!!!! I hope he gets everything straighten out soon, so he can be home with you more again. We'll have Heidi's christening sometime in December when we are in Germany.
Awesome workouts you got and wonderful how you are doing on the weight loss!!! My scale maybe moved 3 pounds but that's it. Still have about 15 pounds or so to loose and it is mainly in my butt and thighs :-( ;( , but I'll get there.

Stacey - Good to hear that Ryan is doing well and I sure hope that your daughter is doing good as well. I am trying to get in 5 workouts this week as well, so we'll see how that goes.

Alright ladies, Heidi is crying so I better go.
