Rejuvinated

After a few looong nights with Ulric, Brian and I decided to put the wolf cub (a.k.a. monkey) back in bed with us. Mind you, he was in bed with us all this time, but we tried to put him in the SnuggleNest in order to protect him from our comforter. Uli knew the difference and would have none of it. The last two nights he's been back nestled beside me, and we are sleeping much better - about 6 hours straight last night. Go ahead and make your comments about our parenting, but this is definitely the way to go, and I know many people and many docs that encourage 'co-sleeping' or 'sleep-sharing.' Now the comforter is tucked in tight at the bottom and only comes up to our waists. Poor, skinny BDP might freeze, but Uli will be safe...



I like it best this way. The bags under my eyes may actually go away now.



On another note - I did my first yoga practice today since I had Uli. It was HARD! My balance is off and I am not as strong as I was. It's amazing what a month will do. I will probably go back to my pre-natal DVD for a while until I am feeling a little more confident, then I will head to Shawn's for a proper class.



Finally - the last bit of good news: I was able to put my pre-preggo jeans on today! They are still tight and my loose belly still folds over the waist, but at least I can get them on! PROGRESS! BDP's setting up the bike on the trainer tonight - I can't wait to take an indoor spin on the old steel monster!
