Love Bug or Stink Bug?

That is the question of the day! I decided to be a good girl and take my kids to the gym. I've only made it to the gym at night after Scott's home and haven't taken the kids since Brooklyn was born. Megan and Josh were excited to go back and play. Brookie had different plans. I checked her in, got her settled and was off. I got about 8 minutes on the eliptical machine before they came and found me. I stayed on it determined to get atleast 10 minutes and then went back downstairs to settle her again. I put her in a bouncy seat and played with her for a little while. A friend then showed up to check her baby in. Brooks was playing well so I snuck off to go to a class with my friend. I lasted for about 10 minutes again before the childcare staffer was back upstairs. Ahhh! I went back down and settled her again. She went into a swing. Once again I was able to sneak off. I went back to that class and got about 10 minutes of abs in before they were back for me. I finally gave up. I checked the kids in at 8:50. I checked the kids out at 10:30. All in all, I got about 30 minutes at the most. Like I posted before, just getting the kids to the gym is a workout in itself. I think I'll take that smoothie next time. The stink bug is such a mama's girl. She will only go to Scott without crying. As tired as it makes me, she does make her mom feel good. In fact, I got my first real hug from her today. Each time I would get her from child care, she would throw her arms around me, squeeze, and bury her head in my neck. Ahhh, I loved it!

At least you made it to the Gym...it's been a good six months since I've been on a treadmill - and it shows!

Okay, this is Deanne. . . I'm just using Becky's login name. Could she be any cuter? I love that picture. Look at the bright side, you probably got a workout going back and forth from the daycare to class. That's much better than I get these days. Addie took off running down the street yesterday, at at 28 weeks pregnant, it was not a cute sight having me chase her down. And I think I was sore and didn't want to move the rest of the night.

Hey, Dina, get your own login!!! You are a closet blog stalker and you just use my name to check everyone else out! I am going to take this oppotunity to let anyone know that if "the johnson's" comes up alot that it is Dina and not me. Dina..aka Deanne. I am more sneaky..I log out and then look at peoples blogs!

Anyways, how could you not love that sweet little baby face?!?!? I feel your pain. I wish I could just take my kids and drop them off but there might be some blood shed from Colton clawing everyone. Have you seen Alex's face?? So, good for you. We'd be better off just calling each other and doing situps while we are talking!!!

Deanne, you need to start doing a blog before that baby comes. Besides, you should share Addie with the world. She is the cutest little girl ever! Come on...just do it (besides, you can still log in as Becky when needed. She'll never know). And by the way, I'm sure your 28 week pregnant body looks better than my 24 week post pregnant body.
