Cloning! :D
Okay, update to the work out plan:
STILL don't really have a plan besides my cardio workout (which I will do at the gym), but I did take my measurements.
Bust: 38
Waist: 35
Hips: 41
Thigh: 25.5
GROSSSSS.....
I'll check my weight in the morning on the scale at the gym so it will be consistent every time I take it.
Oh goodness...let's hope I can stay motivated and get a good plan going!
Not sure if anyone keeps up with my running commentary of my life via 365, but lately I've been constantly bitching and complaining about how horribly out of shape and fat I've gotten. YES, I know I just had a baby, but last time I was weighed, I was back down to my pre-pregnancy weight, but I still can hardly fit into any of my pre-preggers clothes.
I actually went and bought a size 12 pair of jeans the other day.
SIZE 12.
That's the largest size that Express carries!!!!!!!!
Sigh.
So. It's time to get motivated and do something about it.
Tomorrow is the first...a new month, a new day, time to start fresh. I bought a gym membership today and I will be hitting up the gym tomorrow. I'm REALLY freaking excited, but seriously, I have no idea where to start. I also have a weight bench here at the house that Ryan uses, so I should probably utilize this, too.
SOOOOOOOOOO....if you have any tips, please let me know! It would be much appreciated! :D
I felt inspired today. I came up with this:
It's really the most amazing thing in the world when my daughter grins at me, or when I see her grinning at Ryan. She also makes noises that are very happy and content, very close to laughter. She makes me melt inside every time I look at her.
I made this little baby. I'm so proud of her. :)
Although almost every day at Six Apart is Take Your Dog to Work Day, Friday was extra special because it was the official Take Your Dog to Work Day! Plus, as lovers of blogs and animals, we think it's great that active blogger and Human Society's President and CEO, Wayne Pacelle, thinks having dogs around the office is a good reminder of "who we're working for."
We realize some people have it ruff and aren't lucky enough to be able to bring their dog to work, but hopefully these pictures taken at Six Apart last Friday will get your tails wagging... And let me tell you, it's harder than it looks to get all the doggies and their fetching owners in one picture.
Corbin turned two months on Friday, which meant we had reached an inevitable milestone: first set of immunization shots.
I was pretty upset that I was having to go alone, especially the last hour before leaving. I was DREADING it. She was in such a good mood today, when she has been kind of fussy the past several days. She was smiling and she was having a good time during her bath and then she was being all cute...gawd, my heart was breaking every moment.
Pre-shot Corbi-lou:
And then it came time for the shots...
She was sucking her paci and seemed so content. It went by very quick. The first shot she screamed and then she was in the middle of building up for her LOUD OMGWTF SCREAM when the other two shots were given. It was over in seconds. She cried really hard for about three minutes and she was blood red. She actually cried real tears. I was actually laughing at her, though, because she was so cute. She was consoled pretty quickly, though, with her paci and a bottle. Then came the grape-flavored baby Tylenol. I think that did the trick. And maybe she liked her bandaids, I dunno.
She's sleeping peacefully now. She stirs a bit every now and then, but I'm not going to wake her up unless she wants to get up. Let her sleep it off.
She really was a champ today. :) Post-shots:
Time to feed my poor baby. <3
Yes, I need to do a real update. Things have been kinda busy, going back to work and all.
More later! <3
For those of us in the northern hemisphere, today is the summer solstice. For ancient civilizations, this day was akin to our modern day New Year's Eve and was viewed as a time to reflect and renew. So why not kick off your summer celebration with a new theme?
See all of our themes in the Design Area.
Or choose from one of these brand-new themes. (Available under "New.")
A couple of months ago, we told you about Blog It powered by TypePad, the first cross-platform blogging application for Facebook the enables you to post to your Vox blog - and ALL your blogs - with a single click.
Within a week, Blog It had nearly 4,000 active users posting tweets and creating blog posts, as well as updating their status messages with the title and link to the published post. Today, Blog It's Facebook application has nearly 10,000 users. But here's the thing: You're not always sitting in front of the computer when the inspiration to blog strikes. And at Six Apart, it is our goal to provide you the tools you need need to blog where you want, and when you want.
Which is why this week we introduced Blog It for iPhone, a free web application just like the one we introduced for Facebook - only now - on your iPhone. Built specifically for iPhone's Safari browser, Blog It for iPhone enables you to post blog entries or status updates from wherever you are to more than a dozen different online services. And just like the original Facebook version, you can choose to share your posts with the people you know across various social networks.
To start blogging with Blog It for iPhone, go to http://blogit.typepad.com with your iPhone's Safari browser and install the Blog It icon onto your mobile desktop. Then, all you have to do is click the Blog It icon and start creating posts!
Whether you're riding the bus to work, cheering on your team courtside, or enjoying a picnic by the lake, now it's easier than ever to Blog It.
