Classic! That kid is too funny. I'm glad no one got hurt! :)
Hehehe, love it.
Yay! I am so happy you blog. Now we can keep in contact or at least feel like we do. You are so pretty and your kids are getting so big. We need to get together.... I wish I did work out!!!
Hooray! I'm glad you've joined the bloggers!
Amen to paying for a gym!

What a cute post! Someday I will completely understand the need for a gym membership that includes babysitting! Thanks again for last Friday! Whenever you need to get out, call us up! We are ready and waiting!!
I admire you for working out at all... and I hear you about trying to workout with kids around. It just never works. I used to try to get up before Caden to get in a workout video, but let's be honest - I'm not much of a morning person.
Oh Lincoln... I love that kid- but I can see what you mean about the exercising at home.. Funny kid! I can't wait to see you guys again.. 12 1/2 weeks?? =)
Micke and I got a kick out of the fact that we couldn't figure out who was more worn out. :)
Michelle, I have a lot of books here with activities to do with kids and workbooks et cetera. If you are interested, let me know and I can bring them over to you or you can come here and take a look. Whichever is easier for you.
