Manic Monday.

My wake up time this morning was 4:45 AM. Caleb isn't feeling well...we think its new teeth coming in...and he's just a runny-nosed, coughing, fussy mess. I knew it was going to be a rough day when Caleb beat my 5AM alarm...I wake up at 5 on most mornings so that I can beat the kids and get a shower, because if I don't there are some days that I don't get to shower until 7PM. :P

Anyhow...he was a BEAR when I got him this morning. I tried to sit him down and feed him but he wasn't having it, so I gave him Motrin, rubbed some Orajel on his gums and finally got him back to sleep at 6AM. By this time Noah was awake, so I fed him and jumped in the shower...Caleb woke up just in time for us to leave for school and I thought I was going to be able to log some miles on the treadmill. Uh no. I noticed that Caleb was phlemy and REALLY runny-nosed, as well as sneezy and even though the stuff coming out of his nose was clear (green=infection, clear=OK) I didn't want to be that mom that brought her sick kid to the gym daycare, so I opted to get some groceries at Walmart and do a Jillian workout at home instead.

Workout stats: Jillian's 30 Day Shred, Workout 1, 171 calories burned.

I skipped some of the cardio segments and did some strength training instead; I need to start focusing on strength again. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to get a serious run in...we'll see.

My saving grace: coffee (in my Queen of Hearts mug that Mike got me for my 2nd Mothers Day) ;)


My breakfast: apple cinnamon oatmeal...it was a lot yummier than it looked. :)
