So this week there are 4 photos of me with little guy! Don't get used to this. Seriously, this must have been a fluke or something.
First off we have us getting ready to do some chores around the house. Jojo has been sick this week so getting anything done has been almost impossible. He is very clingy and makes the most pathetic cries when I am not holding him. I couldn't take the sadness. Our solution? Use the mei tai that Grandma made for us. Works like a charm. He fussed for a few minutes while I got it on and snug enough but then he was out like a light for the hour and a half I cleaned. Of course once I took him out, he woke back up.
I have decided that I need to do some ab strengthening exercises. I just started 2 days ago and OW. I am only doing 10 reps on my crunches (regular and reverse) along with superman and plank for around 15-20 seconds at most. Apparently that is all it takes for my abs to burn. I feel like I did the first time I did Pilates with Christina and that was an hour long work out... At least I have someone to motivate me. Jojo does his tummy time while I work out and finds the faces I make hilarious.
He was smiling at me. Probably thinking "How cute, Mommy thinks she is working hard!" Also, have you ever copied a baby's movements during tummy time? Wow. Serious workout there. Maybe I should make Jojo my new trainer?
Finally, a picture of us in all our sickness. The only thing I have found that calms the raging monster when he is overtired and very cranky is to snuggle him up against me while we are lying down on the bed or floor. Well since I was sick too, I was not going to lie on the floor. My comfort matters! Instead we spent lots of time snuggled up on the bed. Between my kindle and tablet, I kept myself entertained and awake. David came in to check on us last night and decided we looked adorable. I think we look sick.
So there, Week 3 out of 52. Next week should be interesting because my in-laws will be here. We might actually get pictures of all 3 of us!
