Last night I went to my first yoga class since Amelia was born. I learned that you really do use your abs for all core activities. It is funny the things you just take for granted when you are in shape. Luckily, I was able to do everything and did not feel that my stamina [...]

We think Amelia has reflux. We are not sure how serious it is, but we know she spits up quite often and seems to have regurgitation happening after feedings. It seems from the literature we’ve read so far that lots of babies have reflux because their gastro systems are not fully developed when they are [...]
This site seems pretty cool for eco-friendly baby things. I guess I should probably start some sort of category on the sidebar with links to sites I like for baby swag. Otherwise I know I am not going to remember them when I need them in the future.
Amelia did great last night, sleeping from 12:30-4 [...]
Sonia & I went “running” today. I was thinking I might make it about 10 minutes before needing to stop. But, we started out slowly and just jogged and chatted (like usual) and sure enough we made it 30 minutes or so before we hit a big hill and I figured we could walk once [...]
Everyone thinks Amelia looks like Ian. She might have his nose and eyebrows. But…here are a few baby pics of me. You be the judge.
Amelia definitely has character. She is a very sweet baby, but you can see her little personality shining through in her facial expressions. Here’s a funny series of photos we took yesterday morning as she was waking up.
Today she is 3 weeks old!
When Amelia is a little fussy in her basinette, it generally means she’d rather be held than sleep all by herself. At least that is what we are learning. This is how I found Ian & Amelia this morning.
And this was last night during the 2nd period of the Buffalo vs. Habs game. We needed [...]
Here are some funny photos from this am. Amelia’s umbilical cord has fallen off, so today we tested out “tummy time.” Since babies sleep on their backs in the crib, tummy time while they are awake helps them build up their back muscles. Here are some side & tummy shots — so far her pattern [...]
dreams of running
Posted in Training, baby, friends & family on Sep 3rd, 2008
Last night I had a dream about running. I was still pregnant in the dream, but somehow I was running with minimal effort. It felt awesome (in the dream) and I can’t wait to get back into it (in reality).
It is funny how running is one of those things that I struggle with sometimes, forcing [...]
Training early in the day is supposed to be good for athletes that are “in shape.” I imagine that for some (read: most) people, the thought of running around so early may not be that appealing. And although I do think of myself as a “morning” person, running at 6:45 am does seem to be [...]
