I can't walk!

We will start this blog with my working out progress. I have been working out 5-6 times per week. Which I think it pretty good. One of my friends told me about this workout DVD called 30 day shred by Jillian Michaels (trainer from the biggest loser). Supposedly you can lose up to 20 lbs in 30 days. I don't need to lose 20 lbs. I would look sickly. I read a lot of reviews on weight loss web sits and most people said they didn't lose 20 lbs, but they lost quite a few inches from their lips, thighs and waist. The deal with the video is that you have to do it 30 days in a row and every 10 days go up to the next level. It is only 20 minutes. 3 minutes of strength, 2 minutes cardio, and 1 minute abs. this is repeated for 20 minutes with a 2 minute cool down.
Sounds easy enough right? Well, I was skeptical, but it was only $12.00 at target so I thought I would try it out.
Well, I have done it for 3 days in a row and I can barley walk. I am not kidding. I don't think I have EVER been this sore. Lifting Kellyn is somewhat of a challenge and she weighs nothing. According to Jillian Michaels you have to fight through the pain in order for it to work. She also says that after 5 days the soreness goes away. I hope so! I will keep you updated on my progress. I also plan on continuing to run 4 times per week and do this video every day for 30 days!

Ok, on to Kellyn-
She is 4 months today! She is growing so fast... well kind of. She is still really small. We go to the doctor on Thursday. I have this fear that I am going to get into trouble because she isn't gaining enough weight. I don't think she is eating enough. Most babies who are 4 months should be eating more than 3 ounces every 3 hours. I read that babies should be eating 2.5 times their weight in ounces. If Kellyn weights 10 lbs (probably more than that) she should be eating 25 ounces per 24 hours. I know for a fact she doesn't eat that much! She sleeps for 12 hours at night. I kept track yesterday and she only ate 17 ounces.
Other than that general concern she is doing amazing. She sleeps 10-12 hours at night. Ever since she found her thumb things have been awesome! She doesn't want to be rocked to sleep. I lay her down, she sucks her thumb and goes to sleep. She is also freakishly strong. She likes to stand up. She also thinks she is pretty funny. I will put her in the exersaucer while I am doing dishes or cooking dinner. If I am not fully paying attention to her she will scream (like she is in pain) and when I look at her or ask her if she's ok she will crack up laughing. She will do this over and over again. Funny, funny girl.
Here are some pictures.
