Working out turned out to be not so fun!

So today I got my Jillian Michaels workouts and I was super stoked to get home after a day of running errands to start. Now after my first attempt at working out since I had Maddie, I feel like I have rubber arms and the room is spinning. Working out turned out to be not so fun but I know it will be worth it when I can fit into all my "before pregnancy" clothes! At least that's what I'll keep telling myself during my work outs until I start believing it. I thought I would post a short video of what I did in my workout. Don't be fooled...it's A LOT harder than it looks! :)





And this is what I feel like after....

Spring with Maddie










Not too much to update on. Maddie is growing fast..too fast in my opinion but she is getting so fun! She is getting quite a personality and loves to talk and squeal. She will talk to just about anything that is in front of her. I love listening to her when I am in the kitchen and she is in her Einstein Jumper just talking away to the frog, sunshine, or her self in the mirror. So fun!
Mads has recently learned to roll over during nap time in her crib and thinks its so fun to do. I am constantly coming in to check on her and find her rolled over or stuck in the crib slats just talking away and looking at me when I poke my head in. As much as I love seeing her learn new things I am hoping or PRAYING that this is just a faze considering she woke up three times last night rolling over in her crib, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
We also discovered that Maddie LOVES peaches and above is the proof. She enjoyed them so much that she just couldn't keep her hands out of her mouth. Needless to say, they ended up all over her!
She has found a new friend. It's a cat in the hat stuffed animal that grammy got for her and she just loves that thing. I got a picture of her sleeping with it in her crib. It's kind of creepy but for some reason she loves it.
Nate, Theresa and big boy Kingston came up to KC for a visit so we got to hang out with them some. K and Mads enjoyed looking at each other, pulling on each other, and eating each others fingers. They were pretty funny. They even took baths together but I didn't get any pics. They are so fun to watch together and comparing how much bigger K is than Maddie and they are only 8 weeks apart! It's amazing. They are really starting to interact with each other. I posted a couple of pictures of them together.
On a personal note, I just purchased two work out videos and I am super stoked to get them. Thanks to Theresa, I have found some motivation to start working out at home with Jillian Michaels too. (one of the trainers from The Biggest Loser) If the people on the show can do it, so can I. I just want to at least look somewhat decent for our vacation at the lake this year. Hopefully I can stick with it!
