1 month post baby!!

So we officially have made it a month since the baby was born.
It has been been a very eventful month, from the baby being born, the older kids going to their piano camp, our air conditioning going out, being out of the house for two weeks, a visit from our friends, and probably some other stuff I am forgetting.

Today was the baby's one month check-up. He is doing great and is already 10 lbs.  I'm pretty surprised because I have always heard breastfed babies gain slower. He is the first baby of mine that I haven't had to supplement and he is more than a pound heavier than the other kids at this age.

I am enjoying my maternity leave, even though I have not been able to relax and recover the way I wanted. I'm hoping that I get a few days where I can just take care of the baby and the kids, and not have anything else go on.

I started to workout slowly and am hoping to get back in shape. Also I'm about five months (or 155 days, but whose counting ;) away from my third half marathon!! I walked about a mile today around the neighborhood, did some arm exercises, and did the steps. Hopefully I get the all clear for going to the gym at my six week checkup.
