Let's compare pictures...
The first picture was taken on September 5th of '09. DH and I took the boys on a hike (I know I'm a prejudice mom, but aren't they handsome?). I was about a month pregnant here. Didn't know yet. Was carrying L in the backpack carrier.
Skip ahead many months to the next picture of me. *sigh* This was taken on May 16th of '10, three days before E was born.
I have lost some of my pregnancy weight, but I still have a little more to go, and more time needed to get in shape again. I have to realize I gave birth just 7 weeks ago, but still I want to look like that first picture again - RIGHT NOW. If nothing else, I want to fit in my old clothes. I don't really fit into anything right now. My maternity clothes are too big, but I'm still wearing some of the tanks and T's and some of the low cut belly band shorts. On a positive note, I walked 4 miles again tonight. But to show you how I wasn't thinking, I ran out the door to library storytime with E and L in the Chariot trailer/stroller and J on his bike, and me in my flippers! I had blisters by the time we got back after that 4 mile walk. As we left, I didn't have time to unlock the house and go back in for my hiking or walking shoes. But really, just stubborn is the reason.
Some of my family wanted to see what I looked like pregnant, well, there I am! Just after a bath too, so my hair was a little scarier than usual - haha!
