Trying something new...

Even though I'm in my second trimester (almost 5 months along), I still feel very tired. Part of the problem was my thyroid medicine wasn't strong enough but that is straightened out now and I'm not feeling so bone tired. Yesterday after church, I fell asleep in the car on the way home and then crawled into bed and slept another 1.5 hours. I'm wondering if I really started exercising again if it would make a difference.

Sooooo - I'm going to start my excercise program again and to keep myself accountable, I'm going to post what I did everyday. Even if it is just a walk.

This morning I did 35 minutes of TaeBo advanced and am planning on going for a walk with the kids this afternoon. Tomorrow will be a 1.5 mile walk in the morning pushing a double jogging stroller filled with 60 lbs of kids and some weight lifting. That is my goal anyway.

On another note - we got rid of our puppies. We made it 38 days before I had a melt down. The puppies weren't terrible or anything and the girls tried really hard to take care of them. It was me who couldn't deal with one more thing on my plate. We contacted Lori of Free Range Whippets (a whippet rescue place) and she took them on Saturday. Lori thinks she may have already found a home them in Canby! I feel so guilty for buying them in the first place but I really wanted to make the girls happy. Last time I do that ;)

We did get more pets though. We are now proud owners of Captain Jack Sparrow- the betta fish, Barbosa-the black snail and Davy Jones-the golden snail. Much nicer pets and easy to care for. We plan on getting another betta fish and seperate the tank (as the betta will kill each other if in the same space). The girls are going to name him Norrington. These names won't mean anything to you unless you have seen the second Pirates of the Caribbean.

I'll post pics later of their set up.
