Okay, this might be a little weird but I am planning on using this picture as part of my motivation now that I have the go ahead to start running again. I decided to talk about this new struggle/goal instead of the fact that I am back to work today. I will save the fact that I had the sweetest little baby sleeping in his bassinet this morning when I had to get in the van to cry myself to work for another post. He was even making those sweet little baby sighs. I won't go into how much using a pump sucks... plastic is not nice to bewbies... but I will continue to use it for the next year or so like I did with the other monkeys. Nope, instead I will talk about how much baby weight I STILL have to lose!! I saw some people out running this morning and I was so torn. Part of me wants to get up and go and the other part is apprehensive about how I will feel when I can't just get up and do 7 miles without much thought! I can't even remember where I put my ipod! I am going back and forth about going at lunch today, simply because I want to get home as soon as possible to be with the monkeys. I was spoiled spending eight weeks at home with them all!
I did do Jillian Michaels 30 day shred over the weekend. It was a great workout. I was sore from just the level one session and I did not even put forth all of my effort. I think it will be great throughout my training for the ZOOMA run because it has so much strength training and I am lazy when it comes to doing that on my own!
Being back to work should help with my diet. I plan on stocking my office with healthy snacks and lunches and hope they don't give littlest monkey gas! So hopefully my next "belly pic" will be much better looking.
I plan on posting a recap of the fun things we did during my maternity leave soon. I forgot my camera cable so I can't get the pictures up today.

o so glad to have you back to blog land i cant wait to see pictures, i understand you had a great visit to indiana. you look great and you know you can do it
I should do that, post a post-baby belly pic for motivation. Wait who am I kidding, NO WAY!
I do have the urge to start running again too, but it's so hard with 2 kids, I did buy a double jogger stroller though, so I really have no excuse. I did the same 30 day shred tape and was so sore after level 1 and got up to level 2 and quit after 2 weeks, I got bored and level 3 was too hard.
Bummer you have to go back to work, I have been working a little here and there but not much. Soon, though, cause I'm running out of my money I saved for maternity leave.
You can do it!
I cant believe he is 8 weeks already!
New Pics of squeaky please :)
