Amazing

Hunter at Work

I did two amazing things today.

I went to the gym...AND I took a hot bath. With no kids interrupting. Yes, It happened and with no babysitters involved either.

I timed nursing (not very well, though) with going to the gym and prepped my monster as best as I could. Ive never gone before because even the mere idea of begin left with strangers caused such an uproar with her that it was best to just skip working out for peace. Well, now that she's been going to daycare and is somewhat more brave, I thought that this would be a good timet o try again. So, off we went and it turned out way better than expected. My monster nervously stood in the middle of the play room next to M&M's carseat until I left the room to go find a free treadmill. I had to come back early because M&M was crying hungrily (according to the 16 year old girl that was working the room). I decided to just call it a workout and head home. It worked out wonderfully! I got almost 45 minutes of excercise in, which is better than anything Ive done in the last year. I feel sore already.

As for the bath. Well, M&M has been sleeping alot today due to him being up in the night trying to poop and fart, so I hopped right in the tub as soon as the monster went to bed. I just kept the door ajar so I could hear M&M in case he stirred while sleeping soundly in the swing. Our house isnt big enough that I wouldnt be able to hear him. Yay! I feel wonderful.

The monster and I even made Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins. Mmmm!

Oh, and Steve finally called. I last heard from him on Monday, so that was nice. We got to talk for awhile since it was nap time and everyone was asleep. I attempted to awake the Monster but she was cranky and didnt want to talk to him. He understood but I could tell it hurt him a tad. Oh well. She's two.

Okay, so Id better go. I still need to do the dishes and its super late.
