As I mentioned in my earlier update, we welcomed a new baby boy in March. Sure, I might be a little biased but he is pretty much perfect. Already full of smiles and playing games…I think he’s going to be a runner. One thing that has also stuck around (after 6 weeks) is some of the pregnancy weight. That doesn’t mean I’m going to stop trying to shed it.
After a pseudo-false alarm and a second fast drive to the hospital, we made it to the delivery room just in time to welcome our third child (a BOY) into the world! His big sisters are incredibly proud of their new baby brother and excited to teach him all about ballet, princesses and Disney shows….and I’m sure he’ll be excited to learn. As we’re all settling in and getting adjusted to each other posts will be a little more sporadic in the following weeks, but can’t wait to share our adventures as I resume my quest to regain that pre-pregnancy body and lose my pregnancy weight from the third pregnancy!
Make it a great day!!
It’s that time of year again. Leaves are all but gone, there’s a chill in the air, and I’m already starting to freak a bit about what to get the kids for Christmas. But let’s keep it all in perspective – reframe, refocus, restart. In the spirit of the season, I thought I’d take a few minutes to really think about what I’m most thankful for this year. So here we go!!

So, it seems that this is the last place I have to announce the big news for our family…I’m happy to say I’ll soon be running after my third baby. We are expecting our third this March! Three in five years is a little more than I ever envisioned, but am so thrilled at the prospect. The kids are thrilled about having a new sister or brother (though they’re leaning towards the former).
Pregnancy the third time around is a little different. Making fitness a priority during this one has been more of a challenge having to juggle a hectic work/travel schedule with the kids. I’m actually (finally) learning how to say “no” a little better to certain requests.
For me, lots!
My goals for the year have obviously changed but I’m optimistically looking ahead to 2013. Triathlon, 5k’s? Why not both!
If any third-timers have advice on managing the chaos, I’d love to hear how you STILL make fitness a priority.
