I know what you mean :) I'm the world's greatest Auntie! I can hug them and spoil them and send them home! This one will be just about 5 weeks old when I get to meet her <3 YAY for quitting smoking! So what if you're using the patch? Just like weight loss - do whatever you need to do to get you thru! You got this - I know…

She's here! Paige Elizabeth was born this morning at 10:11 am Denmark time. She was 5 lbs 7 oz 18.9 inches long. I might be a little biased, but I think she's beautiful LOL
-
That's awesome Terrie! I started again this morning and remembered how much I hate step ups LOL Baby is on her way :) :) Mandi had to be induced so I'm not sure how long it will take. I hope to have an update by morning! Maybe even pictures!
-
Funny you should mention that - the minute I stepped out of the airport here, I swear my skin started to flake and itch LOL A tan sure fades fast when it's -25 out! I think the headaches have something to do with the pressure change. It hasn't gone away yet :( Sorry to hear you're under the weather Meg :( I hope getting…
-
No baby news yet :( I know she's only 3 days late but doesn't she know how anxious I am for her to get here? LOL I had a headache for most of the weekend - not sure if it's sugar withdrawal or the change of air pressure - or maybe it's the 50 degree swing in temperature??? I wanted to start lifting again today but woke up…
-
Lol Christina! You still haven't quit? I'd shoot you too lol I can understand how scary it must be to start working out again after what you went thru. Start slowly, like you said! You'll get there! I'm starting lifting again on Monday. Got to get rid of this water weight before my next trip to see my granddaughter in…

Happy new year ladies! Jen it's too bad we're not flying thru Chicago this year - we'd be passing in the airport I'm sure :) We are flying thru Dallas- just got to FLL. Flight leaves in two hours. Thank god for free wifi! I missed you guys :) - Cruise was awesome. Excellent weather, amazing food. Not looking forward to my…

What happened to the rest of my post? Weird. I wished you guys a merry Christmas and typed a whole long message. I didn't see until this morning that it was gone! Anyhow have a wonderful holiday and I will try to check in if I get wifi

After a couple of glorious days in Fort Lauderdale it's off to Miami to board the ship tomorrow
-
Sitting here in Dallas waiting for our connection to Fort Lauderdale. It's freezing here! Only 48 degrees. Brrrr. It's almost warmer at home.
-
One more hour to go and I'm done for the year! First a pot luck lunch and movie with my group and then bowling and snacks with the group where my office is :) It's going to be a tough day!
-
That's so weird! Even when we were at their house when Oliver was about 5 months old it wasn't like that. I'd never expect anyone to wait on me - especially when I can get off my butt and do it myself! Besides, I'd rather hold the baby :) I haven't logged at all this week - early start to my vacation I guess. I've just got…
-
Meg, with all the exercise you did pre-baby, I'm sure you'll be down to normal in no time. I can't believe your inlaws were less than helpful! I think having two might be a little different but I think Kristi was grateful for the times I had Cooper. It gave her a little space at least and more time with Oliver. Although…
-
Had a wonderful evening. We are heading out to breakfast this morning and then they're off to visit his brother and I'm off to work :( But first we open presents!! Meg I discovered a great arm workout - it's called baby lifts lol I was bouncing Cooper on my knee and lifting him up. OMG my arms are sore this morning lol.
-
Sounds like a great day! I'm just waiting (not so) patiently for them to arrive :)
-
I'm so excited - my 'second son' and his family are visiting today :) :) :) I haven't seen Oliver since he was 9 months old (he'll be 3 in March) and Cooper was just born Oct 1. There will be a little bit of squishage going on LOL but I promise to let them breathe :) They haven't gone to see Santa yet so I may just suck it…
-
Terrie 2 lbs is amazing! It will be gone in no time! I won't do nearly that well lol. I plan on Baileys in my coffee every morning, mimosas with breakfast and drinking by the pool all afternoon o:) and that doesn't even include the food and I've hit my cals for the day :) Hit my lowest low this morning :) :) so at least…
-
yes please!!! Drs apt went really well - he said I was down 11 lbs from last year?? WOW - I didn't think it was that much! In all fairness, my appointment last year was only days after getting back from a week in Vegas so last year's number was artificially high ;) But I'll take it LOL Had the apt been the week after my…
-
Finally got a decent sleep last night! Hallelujah!! I woke up a couple of times - correction - Nyxon woke me up a couple of times but I was able to go back to sleep. Will do a BWM but no workout. I have my annual 'poke and prod' with the doctor this morning. Such fun! And a lunch with some friends from high school. Last…
-
GO JEN!! Unfortunately after a third sleepless night in a row I was in no mood for exercise :s I did have the best sleep between 5 and 6 tho! Really hated to get out of bed. Didn't really even have time for a BWM but did get some pushups in at least. I'll bet even Meg gets more sleep than I have been getting LOL
-
No shred for me since Monday - a couple of sleepless nights will do it! I'm not stressed but do have a lot on the go with the trip fast approaching (9 more sleeps :)) Once I'm awake it's nearly impossible to go back to sleep. At least this morning it wasn't until after 3 that I woke up. I did get a BWM in tho - just no…
-
You jump squat with dumbells?? No wonder your knee hurts!
-
Did you ever make it to the gym Jen? No workout for me this morning :( I was up at 12:30 and could not go back to sleep. I tossed and turned until at least 3:00 so when the alarm went off at 5 there was no way I was getting out of bed! Slept till 6 got up and came to work. Such a life LOL I'm feeling like a zombie today.
-
Dang life gets in the way of our good intentions all the time! :s
-
OMG Jen we're two peas in a pod. I'm not sleeping well either :( Most annoying to wake up at 2:30 and not be able to go back to sleep. I slept in this morning but got a 5min BWM in at least. We've got two Christmas parties this weekend. Dinner theatre tonight and at a casino outside of Calgary tomorrow night. Food is never…
-
OUCH! That sounds nasty! At least sore muscles go away instead of hiding and pouncing again when you least expect it! Sounds like you have a nice evening planned - what are you doing? Dinner and drinks? It all depends on who I'm wrapping for, I guess. I do like the convenience of bags, I gotta admit :) I have a huge stash…
-
Everything was back to normal yesterday but I didn't chance it and thought I'd workout this morning instead. Wes jammed on me to work (???) so I just rode the bike. After being a sloth all weekend it felt good to do something! It's warming up somewhat - highs of only -10c which is a nice change from the -26 on the weekend!…
-
Well, my plan for hibernation didn't quite go according to plan. Wes went out to do the running around and I stayed home to do laundry etc. until.... I get the phone call! Wes locked his keys in the car so I had to go rescue him lol I got some toblerone for my efforts :) Which I promptly ate! o:) We are heading to Calgary…
-
Another hibernating day today. High is a whopping -21c with a -40 windchill! Brrrrrrr! Most of my Christmas shopping is done so I will get it all wrapped today. Wes has a bit of running around to do - I MAY go with him or I might just be on the couch with my blankie :) binge watching some shows on TV. No workout today :(…
-
Went for a massage this afternoon - it provided a bit of relief. Just not enough ;( So now I'm hunkered down in my Jammie's waiting for the Oilers game to start.
