I was deadlifting and squatting right around 100lbs before getting pg (working towards my body weight of around 120 for my first goal) and benching about 70lbs.  Right now I'm just using bands b/c DH and I haven't set up the gym...

Okay, so I want to try and be accountable for being active with you ladies, too!  I've been doing cleaning, organizing, and box-moving around a lot (still trying to get us unpacked from moving), but I want to do more.  I'm...

I know how you feel... there are some days that my kids drive me nuts!  I have to remember to calm down and stop stressing... remember to enjoy life (but I may send them all outside or make them all sit down in the same room as me...

We have told a few friends here and there and DH has told his boss (he takes 2 weeks off for a baby so likes to let them know way in advance to avoid a critical project scheduled for those weeks).  We haven't told any family...
