Hi everyone,
Glad to hear you had a nice family reunion Briee and I admire your will power. I was feeling good about my body until we walked down Main street on sat and saw al the tourists with their washboard abs. I must admit though, I can where a 2 piece suit, i just don't have the genetics for those washboard abs. I too made a post about needing the premixes. I am waiting to preorder to see if they put them in. If not, i may not order. Alexis is now napping. This morning I went to check on her while napping and found her sitting up and smiling in her crib. Still no crawling or teeth. Now, to remember my workout week:

Sunday-Intense moves(reebok) +bootcamp cardio premix and abs
Monday-bootcamp
Tues-Imax 2
wed-HSTA
Thurs-KPC
Friday-viper
Sat-off
 
HI everyone--

I've sent out a picture of Bardric--please let me know if ya'll got it or if our wierd e mail is sending it over and over, so that I can make it stop.

I will never have washboard abs either, but I don't really mind as long as the tummy looks flat in clothes. I am afraid that I detest core work and don't do it as often as I should.

I lost .5 lbs last week, bringing my total from 2 weeks pp to 33 lbs. I am trying to eat better, because there in lies the problemx(

My work out week

Wed--The Viper
Thurs--45 min bike
Fri--The Gauntlet
Sat--45 min bike
Sun--HSTA upper body premix+body fusion cardio only
Mon--C&W cardio +IMAX II intervals 2, 5, 8, and 9
Tues--rest

I am starting Slow and Heavy again after 2 weeks of circuits. I just got Step Blast/SPJ, but the dvd came loose during shipping and was slightly scratched, which irks me. I watched the whole thing and there are no problems, so I won't return it. Sounds like too much of a hassle and I am intimidated be SNM customer service.

take care, everyone
Maggie
(ps--did Step Blast today and it was fun!)
 
Glad someone else posted here. I didn't get Bardric's picture. We did meet a baby though born sept. 10 who was 24 pounds. made me think of Bardric, Looks like you had a great workout week, congrats on all the weight loss.
 
Hi Shopaholic and Maggie! I've had no luck with my computer. The hard drive was crashed for a month and then I had use of it last week, and now the monitor has blown out. Anyway, I have to beg use of other's computers to get on here. I don't know if you sent me a picture, but if so I won't be able to see it until I get my computer running again, as my email can only be checked from home.

It is good to hear that you and your babies are doing well. How big is Bardric now? Max has held steady at 21 pounds for like 3 or 4 months. I can't believe that Alexis has no teeth and isn't crawling. Actually, I would consider you lucky because both of those things have brought me challenges. Teeth = biting mama. Max has 6 with #7 ready to break the surface. And now that he is mobile, I can't get anything done! How does one survive this stage through toddlerhood. If I could afford a full time housekeeper and cook, I would be set! I really am loving it though. I love just getting on the floor and playing with Max!
 
I'll keep trying with the pictures.

Bardric has also stalled at 21.5 lbs, since he became more active. He has been walking for a while now. He has 6 teeth, but has not bit me in a while. I flick his mouth if he bites. I know that sounds mean, but baby teeth are sharp.

Toddlerhood was very difficult (a joy in many ways, but difficult) with the first 2 kids, but after that the older ones have become more and more helpful, making my job a little easier.

take care
Maggie
 
I posted about 3 days ago and I just checked today and it's NOT HERE!!! Don't know what happened!!!!! And it was such an insightful post mind you :p :p :p ha ha.

Maggie...I didn't get your pictures...would love to see Bardric!!

I'm continuing in week 9 of the P90X. I had a very restful "recovery week" while at our reunion. I feel like going through the soreness of Chest and Back all over again. It hurts to breathe. I love this workout!!

Emy...any recent pix of Max??

Noah is now sitting just fine, I come to his crib and he'll be sitting up waiting for me. He's scooting EVERYWHERE NOW. Life as we know it is changing!!!
 
Well, I'm bummed about the pics. I don't know why we can't send attatchmentsx(.

Hoo boy does life change when they become mobile (insert frazzled looking smiley here:) )

Don't feel bad Maggie....I'm lucky if I can send emails.:) :) of which I believe I owe you one after you responded so kindly about your curriculum. Been a busy summer and I will as soon as I get a "moment".
