It is going to be one of those days!


I woke up this morning SORE...Kim and I went to the gym yesterday morning at 6:15 and worked out. I found muscles that embarassingly enough have obviously not been used in a LONG time. I had to take Maddie to school this morning and had the hardest time getting my legs under the steering wheel. Maddie's comment to me..."If you end up sore, why do you go to they gym. That doesn't seem fun." Good question! I told her it is good to be a little sore after you go to the gym because it makes your muscles strong. Her response..."You don't look very strong to me." Thank you sweetie, thank you!


So it took me holding in a small scream to sit on the couch with Grace to feed her and now that I am here, I don't want to get up. But we are waiting for the doctor's office to call back since Grace has been a little stuffy for the last few days (we are keeping our fingers, toes, eyes, and anything else that can remotely be crossed that she will be okay) and dreading getting my sore body into the kitchen to frost and decorate a batch of cupcakes to resemble mice for the primary activity today. Josh has a presentation for the mayor of some city coming down today so he won't be home until later, so that leaves me to hobble around looking like a complete idiot all alone today. The kids are going to eat me alive!

I am so proud of you. Stick with it. It will get better. There is something to be said about the endorphins that are released when you exercise. It will ward off the post partem depression too. Take care!
