Pregnancy Workout Videos?

Can anyone recommend a good pregnancy workout video? It needs to be specifically for pregnant women since I'm getting larger by the day and probably can't do the same stretches, moves I used to. So any suggestions are welcome, including any good prenatal yoga videos. Thanks!!

New Cousin!



I'm happy to report that we have a darling new niece in the family, Leah Stathis. She was born to David and Traci, my brother and sister-in-law, this past Friday, January 16. Seven pounds, three ounces, 18.5 inches. We are incredibly happy for this sweet family and can't wait to meet Leah soon. Look at that gorgeous dark hair she gets from her mama! Really, could she be any cuter?? :) (And how does Traci look so good, by the way??)

My Little Goggle Boy


I'm sure some, if not all, of you know this food-prep trick, but long ago I learned from a friend that wearing goggles while cutting onions prevents crying. And it works! No tears! Since moving into our new place, the goggles have been MIA. The other day I was preparing dinner, about to chop an onion, and gearing up for the tears. Along comes Aaron to the rescue ... I could've sworn swear he was wearing a little cape ... with goggles in his hand. I have no idea where he found them, but it was perfect timing! Now the goggles are appropriately stored in the utensil drawer. ;)

Picture Happy

Mike's been having fun experimenting with taking pictures. Here are a few glamour shots. ;)







There are so many leaves in the yard, Mike decided Aaron was old enough to earn his keep.

This is what happened when Mike took the rake away. Well! Apparently someone likes the rake! Needless to say, he got it back. :)


And to end on a happy note, here's a shot of Aaron sporting his sweet new haircut. I love how the short do makes his cheeks appear all the more kissable! :)
