I did recover enough to go back to class on Friday. Aidan was more comfortable with everybody and decided that he needed to visit all the babies since they couldn’t come and visit him. It is interesting to note that all the other babies seemed to love him and were rolling over (those that could) to see him better. Aidan also got a few fingers in the face, but he was really gentle with the others. We also had aerobic steps around a set of gymnastic mats and Aidan decided that he would also visit the mommies as well. He can push himself up with anything now and is also starting to climb.

I am not sure how much of the proper exercises I got to do but I did get to chase after Aidan quite a bit in between them. We will see how it goes next week.

Well, who knows, but this is the picture that was sent off to Live’s Cutest Baby contest.

Aidan and I went to “Baby Bootcamp” this morning on the recommendation of a couple of Moms I have been hanging out with. I met Gen and Julia at Music class and we have been going out for coffee after class. They talked about their fitness classes on Wednesdays and Fridays and I asked about them. They both liked them so I decided to go and check it out.

Me being me, I decided that since there was only two weeks left of the class for this session and since it would be cheaper than dropping in each time I signed up before I changed my mind. That being said I now have three more classes that Aidan and I have to go to. It was really good and if I don’t die from the sore muscles I think I will sign up for the next session. It definitely gets me out and Aidan seemed to have a good time. If I can keep up doing the baby crunches, push ups, bicep curls and squats, and tri-cep curls with Aidan I will be one of the strongest women alive! :) (The walk to and from the community centre with the stroller and the hills helps as well!)

The only problem that I have encountered is that after the nap Aidan and had this afternoon (2 hrs) I am very stiff and sore. I guess I have not used those muscles as much in awhile. But I am getting more limber as the nap wears off so I guess Friday shouldn’t be as bad. Wish me luck!

So, we went to the park on the weekend … because it was … … sunny! (don’t tell anyone)

Anyway, we happened to have the camera along, and we happened to be by the swings.

Don’t worry, we won’t post pictures everytime he sits in swings, but here’s a few more gratuitous photos of him on the swings:

He clearly enjoys the swings…

But also mugs for the camera…

Somehow, this doesn’t look comfortable, though.

On a side note, Gwen’s been playing around with the blog settings, so if things get funky over the next few days, blame Gwen bear with us.
