I've been up since 1AM and I am NOT happy about it!:mad: I've been sleeping so good lately and now this again.

I need a labor sign! Lose my mucous plug! Water break! Something!:eek: I know it would technically be a bit early (even for me) but I"M READY!!!! Well, except for the bag-packing part!:eek: We did get the car seat out of the box lastnight though!:p

I have a midwife appt today. The one I'm seeing today is a certified car seat installer so she's installing all of our car seats correctly. 3 in a row!:eek: YIKES! Never really thought we'd see this day!

Yesterday I never did get a chance to WO.:( Today is my normal rest day - hoping to get soem cardio in while Isabel naps, but we'll see. I know I'm going to be tired from being up FOR THE LAST TWO HOURS!!!!!!!!!!:mad:

b - shredded wheat, apple slices
s - maybe a banana or apple or something
l, s, d - ???

I must be up for a reason - I hear Isabel whimpering. Better go check on her.

No other out-of-the-ordinary plans for today. Hope everybody has a good one!
 
I'm trying to post pics of the room and my belly!!
It's not working very well!! Hopefully soon!

It worked!!

I wish I knew how to post the pics directly on the page. Anybody have any tips for next time?

The room isn't totally done. Still need some things for her walls and in this pic the curtains hadn't been hung yet. Got that done yesterday!

Better try to get some Zs............. Wish me luck!

My word, Kate, get back in the bed!! I'm so sorry you can't sleep!

The room looks WONDERFUL -- I love it, so so cute and girly! And you look wonderful too -- all baby!

I think when Isabell naps this afternoon, you should too. The workout may or may not happen. But you need the sleep more than you need the workout!

Sending labor vibes your way!!
 
WO done -- Legs & Glutes (since I crapped out on Saturday after 5 minutes! :p)

Menu is the same today as yesterday, except dinner -- I am putting chicken, carrots, onions, and potatoes in the crock pot. YUUUUMMMMM!!

Have a fabulous day all!
 
Katie, Good job on the WO! And your dinner sounds yummy! What seasonings do youuse?

Colleen, I posted my marinade recipe for you last night.
 
:)We must have started the thread at the same time.
Kate you have dropped for sure and it will be very very soon. I've changed my bet to Oct 3. I love the marinade for steaks and I may try it today. I'm so glad KittySusy is back home. Cats do have 9 Lives. The baby room looks so sweet.

Angie good for you with ordering Cathe. I think low max was my first DVD from Cathe. You going to love the selection you made.

Klaudia great w/o y-day what do you have planned for today?

Hi Emily we missed you too.

Colleen is your computer fixed?

Katie how is DS today?

My w/o today may be Amy Step and Pump. I'm tired today b/c I went to bible study last night and got home around 8:30. I know it's not really late but I'm not as young as I used to be.;)

b-spinach egg whites
l-tuna and salad
s-special k bar
d-maybe Kate's steak
 
Morning ladies!

Kate, Julia's room is beautiful! Almost made me want another baby;) And I can't wait to try that marinade-Darrin is a total meat and potatoes guy so he'll love it. I hope you get some rest today-you are preggo, after all.

Katie, how's Collin? How early do you get up to workout? I'm so not a morning person.

Angie-yay for new dvds! I'd much rather buy exercise related stuff than clothes, etc. Less stressful:)

Hi Emily!

Robin, I'm on a P90X rotation right now. I'm subbing some of the cardio as I get bored with too much Tony-he's no Cathe:)

Today's workout will be P90X Shoulders/Arms. I'm hoping to up my weights a little. I definitely need to get pace weights/platemates. Jumping 5 pounds isn't doable for me. Wish I had a money tree-those things are pricey!

b-kashi cinnamon harvest, pear
s-cottage cheese w/pineapple
l-soup
s-protein shake, fruit?
d-?

Hello to all who follow:)
 
Good morning everyone!

Today is meeting Wednesday which I hate. I did have one cancellation at 11 so I have a break from 11-1. My computer is almost ready. We are downloading all the OS updates now and hopefully by tonight we will be through them all.

Kate, Julia's room looks great! I did see the marinade recipe - I can't wait to try it.
Katie, dinner sounds good. I need to use my Crock Pot more especially on the weekends since we are usually too tired to make dinner.
Robin, I think you are just tired from your cold. I know when I have a cold everything seems exhausting.
Klaudia, I have pace weights and they were definitely worth the investment. If you find the money tree, please share some with us.
 
Good morning,

WO this morning was Rhythmic Step - last time I'll have to do the fit tv version. All my new ones come tomorrow and then I'll have only a few left on fit tv. Still have a quite a few to get. Good thing Christmas and my birthday are coming.

Kate, so sorry you couldn't sleep! That's the worst - it just ruins your whole day! Ugh, I can so remember! Julia's room looks adorable and so do you! I can't believe you still work out with that belly! :) Hey, do you have any good steak fajita recipes or carne asada? I have some flank steak I need to cook tonight.

Katie, glad you got through L&G today. Great job. How are things going with Collin? Sometimes I feel like I have more problems with my almost 4 year old than I do with my 2 year old!

Robin, ha ha about 8:30 being late. :) Darn Bible Study! :):)

Colleen, good morning! Sorry you have meetings all day. Hope your computer gets fixed soon.

Klaudia, I hear you on the TH cardio! It killed me. And, I agree, I hate buying clothes. Ugh.

EMILY!!! We have missed you lots! Keep hanging around. Our group was getting lonely.

Well, our movers are coming today to scope out the house and see what we have to pack. So Ryan and I were up late last night organizing. Somehow the house now looks like a tornado hit it. :)

I'll check in later.

Hey girlies! I am in a rush (again) but I was just looking at Kate's pics and just had to say how much I ADORE that nursery - beautiful! Love the stripes! And Kate, my dear, you look fantastic!

Katie, doesn't the crock pot ROCK? Just throw a bunch of stuff in, and tasty food comes out like magic in a few hours. :D

Robin, 8:30 is late as far as I'm concerned, and I'm "only" 30. Of course, I'm a super-early-bird, and like to get up before the crack of dawn, so that might have something to do with it. ;)

Colleen, ugh, Meeting Wednesday - I feel your pain. That's usually Tuesdays for me. It's so hard to get any actual work done.

Angie, yay for getting workouts on DVD! :) I don't envy you having to deal with packing and moving. I hope I never have to move again.

Not much has changed for me in the way of eating and working out. I was in Las Vegas last week for business and that made it impossible to both eat clean and work out (stupid hotel gym had terrible hours - and I had to work ALL day EVERY day). But I got back on track as soon as I got home. I didn't even gain any weight in Vegas, so I will count my blessings there. But I could still stand to lose a few pounds regardless. :)
 
Hello everybody! Thanks for all the compliments on Julia's room. We're really happy with how it turned out. Now if only SHE sould get here!!! At my appt this AM my midwife said she thought baby was going to be on the smallside (6-7 lbs - yay!!!!). They rub your belly and play with the baby for the longest time every time you go. I love it!

Nap has NOT happened. I'm way too busy nesting!;) The house was pretty unorganized. I got Isabel down for a nap and really wanted to take one too, but Ill just plow thru and try to go to bed early.

Robin, I've never ate spinach and eggs together.... Good job on the WO today!

Klaudia, That cereal sounds pretty good right now! And you would love the pace weights. Granted, I haven't really used mine the last 9 months but they are wonderful!

Colleen, Glad you got a break during the day today from your meetings! DH hates them terribly. He'd rather be holed up by himself doing paperwork!

Angie, I'm so excited for yout oget new WOs! And it totally makes sense for you to get them now so you don't have to pay costly shipping to France! Good luck with the movers today.

Emily, Nice to see you! ^5 on not gaining weight in Vegas. I'm sure you were busy and on your feet a lot. Any gambling???

Eats ahve been clean today excpet for an attack of trail-mix-itis. I totally wasn't paying attention to how much I was eating. Isabel and I both had way too much.

Mike is working late, bummer. I hope I can hold the girls off on dinner til he gets here.

Hope everyone is having/had a good day!
 
Shoulders/arms done. This is definitely my favorite P90X workout-goes by quick.

Angie, Are you moving to France? Where? I lived there the summer before I started college and I was a French major. How excititng!

Off to make dinner-pasta, salad, garlic bread-clean, right?
 
Klaudia, Your dinner sounds oh-so good! I'm a SUCKER for garlic bread! Good job on the WO! Did you have to do any pull-ups/chin-ups?
 
Good evening,

Another busy day here. Another grilled chicken salad for dinner. Ryan's fixing the car right now and I'm just continuing to clean and organize.

We're going to IKEA in Phoenix tomorrow for a few more things. Movers are coming next week.

Klaudia, we are moving to northern France for 3 years with my husband's job (Caterpillar). We're excited, it's just all sorts of busy!

Well, tomorrow is drill max #5 and IKEA max. Have a great day all!

angie
 
Angie, I want to go to an IKEA so bad! I've never been before! And I meant to say earlier - I do have a fajita recipe, but I have NO CLUE where it is! I have a *small* addiction to recipes!:eek:

Kladia, That is too cool that you majored in French! I took it for 5 years and absolutely loved it! I wanted to be an interpreter for the UN. Now I'm an interpreter for preschoolers!!!
 
Angie, That's so cool. France is amazing. I haven't been back since, but hopefully one day I can get over my paralyzing fear of flying and go back. Have fun at IKEA tomorrow!

Kate, No pull ups again til Saturday. Thank goodness-I'm still sore from Monday's workout! And you'll be happy to know I had only one piece of garlic bread;) Yeah, I had visions of being a fashion writer living in France. How much further away from that could I be? I wouldn't know fashion if it hit me in the face now! At least our girls will ace foreign language class, right?

Have a great night all.
