Mr. Cole has kept me awfully busy lately, so not much time to blog, let alone knit! Since he was born, I made a Small Things sweater for him, a couple of blanket squares for various Ravellers in need of comfort, a chemo hat for a member of our due date group on Rav, and finished my Jared Flood sweater from Spring Fling 2010 (omg).
Summer is on its way (in fact it feels like it’s already here, with this 25 degree Celsius weather!) and that means soon I can go swimming! I have some pretty specific goals for the summer and they include…
-go to BJJ 2-3 times a week
-attend another BJJ tournament (June 16th, in Ottawa)
-get my 4th stripe
-go jogging every second day with Cole, to the point where I can do 5-6 km without stopping (I can do 1.2 km nonstop so far!)
-go walking on opposite days with either Cole or the puppies (or both, but separate walks)
-drink more water
-eat healthy foods and resist the urge to get convenience food when tired
-lose the rest of my baby weight and 5-10 lbs beyond that – I was 160 lbs when I got pregnant, gained 50 lbs to hit 210, and have so far lost 34 lbs (am sitting at 176) – I’d like to get down to 150 lbs, which is what I weighed on my wedding day
I’m in awe of the fact that you went back to work out so quickly after Cole was born. Go, Mama!
