Eventually It’s All About My Belly. (Okay, so the last part has nothing to do with my belly, but HELLO!)

by samantha on April 19, 2010

I know this exercise shit is getting old. I promise it won’t be forever.

DUDE.

I did a sit-up.

Actually, I did a BUNCH of sit-ups.

In a row.

My legs straight out in front of me, and from lying down to SITTING UP RIGHT.

FUCK YA!

Ahem.

I know Jillian says it’s the easy way, but if you burst my bubble I will be forced to cut a bitch.

My weight went up my 0.6lbs but I am attributing that to the rock hard muscle I’m building not the Big Mac I ate last week.

And! I can do push-ups.

Awesome, right?

Well, I thought so.

Plus, my apron is shrinking.

Did you know an apron is the flap of skin that hangs down after you’ve birthed 9 pound babies from your lady bits? You’re welcome.

Not so cool? My boobs, they’re leaving too.

Speaking of babies…

Hudson’s 2nd birthday is creeping up on me. I can’t believe he’s going to be two. He’s still so tiny, but his mouth? It’s big. He has so many new words and is stringing together small sentences already. His baby fine white-blonde hair is finally beginning to grow, and he’s got nearly a full mouth of teeth.

And Carter. My sweet little boy. I can’t believe he’s going to be five. We’ve signed up for kindergarten in the fall and soccer for the summer. He’s a bundle of energy that just doesn’t stop. He’s hilarious and wonderful and such a great big brother.

I bet you’re wondering what I used to take those amazingly wonderful shots of my kiddos, aren’t you? Well, actually… IT’S MY NEW iPHONE!!

I HAZ iPHONE.

Finally.

Annnnd this is going nowhere, so I’ll just end it here.

Look! Cute kids!

Oh, I just about live for the day when my “apron” shrinks. Of course, I have to exercise a lot more for that to happen. I’m not looking forward to my boobs leaving, though. But I shall reward myself with a breast lift if I ever make it to my goal weight!

Your boys are adorable!

My boobs are disappearing… it’s like rolling a couple beaver tails into a bra now…

Apron? Lotus told me it is a fupa.

Either way, yay!

4 samantha May 4, 2010 at 8:37 pm

Fupa reminds me of Opa! and then I just want to break plates..

Apron? who knew it had a name!
I too have two boys (7&5) – yours sure are cute!!!

HAHAHAHA APRON!!!!
And what did you do to H? He’s SO BIG! I need to visit you soon!

7 Miss Britt April 20, 2010 at 3:38 pm

Wow. I’m pretty sure I met you when you were pregnant. I can’t believe how time has flown by!

8 Hilly April 20, 2010 at 5:18 pm

You, my love, are rockin like Dokken! I am so happy for you on all fronts. :)

9 flutter April 20, 2010 at 5:53 pm

Hilly just said rockin like Dokken and now I am so jacked that I can’t think of anything to say

We call that a “muffin top” around here, but apron… oh, apron works, too. Congrats on it shrinking!

11 samantha May 4, 2010 at 8:38 pm

Muffin top is the upper part that hangs over your jeans. An apron is the part that hangs down over your lady bits. LOL

You’re welcome.

I call it my pooch.
YAy for yours getting smaller!

13 pixielation April 25, 2010 at 5:08 am

welcome to the iphone club! It’s addictive.

And good news on the apron. Why is childbirth so undignified – even years aftewards, eh?

14 MommaSunshine April 25, 2010 at 7:11 am

LOVE me some Jillian. If had to pick a chick to date, she’s WAY up there on my list. She’s hot AND she’d whip me into shape.

It’s win-win!

15 Issa April 26, 2010 at 11:28 am

They are so freaking cute.

Sigh. Three more months until I get my iPhone.

16 Megan (Best of Fates) April 26, 2010 at 1:02 pm

I am very envious of your phone – and also your painting on the ground, because that looks crazy awesome.

17 hope smith April 27, 2010 at 10:46 am

Mine is only getting bigger.:(
But I am having a baby in 2 months so hope it changes soon.

Cherish every moment. Mine little boy will be 8 in September and has recently started being embarrassed by hugging me when I drop him off at school. So sad! Hug them every chance and take enough pictures to fill a hundred albums and then take some more. These years fly by.

Yeah, Jillain is too tough for me. I chose to go it alone in my “work outs”. I think its all about moderation. Work out on monday, have some donuts on tuesday. Its all good.

Hang in there.

20 Gina May 4, 2010 at 3:43 pm

Sit ups are the work of Satan. True story. Good for you for doing them!

21 samantha May 4, 2010 at 8:39 pm

I agree, Gina! And lower abs? THE WORST.

22 themsrevolution May 4, 2010 at 3:58 pm

congrats on that sit-up! it is truly amazing how many shapes the female body takes over the course of a lifetime, especially during the child-bearing years. i hardly recognize myself these days now that i have carried and birthed two children. i don’t dislike my body… it’s just so different!

23 Secret Mom Thoughts May 14, 2010 at 4:16 pm

Apron! I love the term. I can’t wait for mine to disappear or at least reduce in size. Found you from Shredheads.
