I am completely drained today. This week has been insane. Lucas hardly slept at night, so I hardly slept. Yet I still had to get up just as early. Today it is really catching up with me.
Matthew and I still did our challenges today though. We are up to 2 1/2 minutes on the plank. That is not fun. I had planned on him and I doing another workout of some sort, but the day got away from us. The kids had doctor appointments, then we had to go grocery shopping. After that Matthew went to his dad's for the weekend. So, that killed that plan. That's okay though.
At the doctor, I noticed that Matthew is down about 7 pounds from where he was at his appointment when he had bronchitis, so we must be doing something right. I didn't say much about it though, because as I've said before, I don't want him focusing on a number. I know far too many girls who obsess over their weight, or what size their jeans are. Taking pills, or crash dieting to get skinny is NOT the way to do it. It is not healthy, and it is only a temporary solution.
My husband suggested today that we look into going to the pool once or twice a week. Matthew and I can swim laps, and my husband and the younger two kids can free swim. I think that this is a great idea! Matthew loves swimming, as do I, and it is fantastic exercise. Plus maybe that will convince my husband that we need a pool ;)
Sorry, that's all you get tonight. I'm very sleepy, and I have friends over. Have a great night everyone!
Swimming and bicycling are my two favorite way to get exercise.
