First Day Back at the Gym

Do You Notice Something Wrong With This Picture?


Yeah, I just went back to the gym for the first time since before I had Liam.. First of all they want to double the price of my gym membership in order to add 1 KID- yeah, Liam is worth what it costs for me AND 3 kids..(I have to upgrade my membership to the one with 6 accesories like towel service or raquetball- or CHILDCARE). I am so bugged by the whole thing! I ended up dropping Noah from my membership and adding Liam, figuring that I can go while Noah is in preschool- and in kindergarten later this year rather than pay double... But still- look at my freakin shoes! I just noticed and I have been wearing them for 4 hours! They should take pity on the poor lady dragging 4 kids to the gym, who can't even match her running shoes! So for all of you who think I have it under control.. clearly- I don't. The funny thing- I probably won't even fix them until I take them off to take a shower...

What a crack up! At least you made it. Always takes me about mmmmmm.....8 to 9 months to become active after giving birth. Gym memberships are so stupid sometimes. We pay more for the daycare than our own membership.

I'm impressed that you own two pairs of running shoes... That totally made my day! Better luck next go-around, and way to go on even making it to the gym!

You are a riot!!! Sounds like something I would have done. I gave up bringing my kids to the gym because it was alot of work to get everyone ready and then have them turn me away because they didn't have enough room...only in Utah! Waiting 45 min to get the twins in the baby side was crazy! But now that they are 1 we may have a chance!!!

I love the baby announcement! Your kids are sooo cute! Your bows are so cute...how much are they. Do you have a website for them!?! I love the curly ribbon bow!

that really is hilarious. i wouldn't take them off until the shower too :) sorry about the membership, that stinks when they try to price gouge us poor moms who really need a break, obviously ;D

That is hilarious...but I must say that I still think you have it together much better than you think. I was doing stuff like that before I even had kids...scary. I got your message about adding Liam at the gym...that is crap! One of these days I will break down and just bring my little "princess in a bubble" to the gym...one of these days...
