My idea of a workout?
Cardio: Run the stairs several times while groggy in the middle of the night because your two-year-old is throwing up every half hour.
Strength Training: Carry a very hefty (23 pound!) 10-month old around the house for hours because he has a 104 degree temperature, and just doesn't want to be put down. For increased difficulty, carry said infant with one arm, while preparing meals, sweeping floors, picking up toys, and doing laundry (please see reference to "throw-up" under Cardio).
Endurance Test: Perform all of the above, along with all the other tasks required of moms (which are too numerous to list here), on less than three hours of sleep.
No way do I feel bad about not getting on the elliptical today!

You're one busy mama!!
Sounds like you had a rough week!! I've been trying to call you to see how things are going- now I see why you've been hard to catch! ;) Hang in there! Wish we were closer to lend a hand to. Love you guys!
Angie, you poor girl, you crack me up! Sounds like you've had a bad couple of days!! Hope it gets better soon. And I hope your little guy is doing better with eating ... speaking of little guy, I cannot believe your youngest (just spaced his name! ;) is TWENTY-THREE pounds! What a tank! :) My little runt Braxton is a mere 15 pounds, so pardon my shock. :) haha. Hope you're all doing better now ~ love ya!
