It's been a crazy week and October Goals
Oct 07 2008 18:49

wow it's been a hectic week but finally I think we are all getting rid of this bronchitis and other fungus that has gone around.  The baby got it too :( although not as bad as we did, but it still sucks to hear him cough and to make him cry sucking snot out of his little nose with the blue sucker thing ... poor kid.  He's been realllllllllly crabby the past couple of days but no fever or anything. 

Took him to the doc for his 2 month checkup he's gained 4 lbs since birth.  I had to laugh when they told me his head is at the 90th percentile (his weight and height are at the 50th percentile).  I had a natural birth with that big fat head so yeah no surprise there lol.  Thank goodness for the warm water in the birthing tub!

He's doing great other than his cold and we had a nice birthday for grandma - where I ate too much of the cake I made her but it was a butter pecan cake and it was quite yummy.  I shall not make another one because the temptation is too great ;) .... Only 3 more birthdays this month including my own to get through.   Halloween :) hooray! I love halloween. 

My goals for October - the hardest month of the year for me diet wise

Walk ten miles a week

Increase my water to help with my milk supply and to flush this fat out

Strength train 2 times a week

Aerobic high impact 1 time a week

Hopefully those goals will be good enough to help me progress but not so difficult to acheive that I fail and guilt myself.
