Jumping Jacks

Several people have suggested to me that I do some jumping jacks to get things moving. Now, I don't know how serious they were, but the suggestion has been made enough times that somewhere along the line, someone must have at least half way meant it. I've repeatedly refused to entertain the idea for weeks now, as it sounded terribly painful and a probable impossibility considering my current state. I can't explain why, but something within me tonight just had to know - could I even do jumping jacks?!

Answer: Heck yes I can!

So, for all you who suggested I do a few, consider yourself humored.

Wow, I don't think that one was ever suggested to me. It sounds awful, even with just one baby in there!
The day I went into labor it was my cleaning day. Corey had told me that morning NOT to clean 'cause the Red Wings (our hockey team) played that night and he didn't want me to be in labor. Gee thanks dear! Well, my house needed cleaning and I just had to do it...and I went into labor about 3pm that afternoon. So perhaps cleaning...but that wasn't much fun either!

I don't believe it. I think I need video.

Sorry Kristi! I didn't take video, but both Dana and Joey can vouch for me!

Oy! Cringing over here, girl.

KJ - Can't be that much worse than a trampoline, right? ;)

You can? Wow! But don't do anymore...I worry that the skin stretched taught across your abdomen just might split!

You realize we weren't really jumping on the trampoline right? We just did one for the cameras. :)

Jamie said...

KJ - What?! That's no fun! If we had one, I'd totally do a few jumps on it!

haha, I know I was humored by it and quite impressed!!! You truly are "super-mom"! lol

Perhaps I should get a cape? Then again, let's give it a few more weeks before I dare to claim such a title! I have a feeling I won't be in the running for "super-mom" at that point - maybe just "super-exhausted" - I could wear that cape!

A cape! Ha! Love it.
