I'm 6 weeks postpartum with my third child and my body needs some serious work! Where should I start? I walk daily but would like to now work on getting my body to pre-pregnancy size and shape, which is going to take a bit of effort. I have access to an elliptical, free weights, Jillian michaels DVDs, resistance bands. I have 14 pounds to lose to get to pre-pregnancy weight and about 20 pounds to get my preferred weight anyone got any advice or suggestions?

Pick one that you will do consistently and that you enjoy, eat at a deficit and "just do it". getting started is the hardest part once you do and you get back in the hang of it you can modify your program to go wherever you want, toned, lean, fit, defined etc...
I personally will always lean towards free weights as the results are proven and will have positive physical effects for years to come... So if free weights is something you are interested in I would direct you to one of the programs touted on this forum, new rules of lifting, strong lifts, etc. and pick one that you think you would like and do it for 6 months or so and see where you go.
Good luck...0
