Having three girls has really made me appriciate the differences between individuals. From Sophia's very serious demenor to Maia's goofy love-fest, I was very intrigued at what Celia would develop in her quest for a personality. Now, at almost 5 months, I can say she is going to be an easy-going for the most part kid, who is quick to protest but quick to get over whatever bothered her. She laughs at everything; she is always smiling, and seems to be content with life. I really appricate that! I had a really tough time when Sophia was a baby because she was very demanding and fussy, and when Maia was a baby I physically had a lot of issues. This time around, Celia is a great baby who is only waking up usually once a night, and I'm getting back to normal physically and mentally. Only improved, since today I ran 2.4 miles straight. When you are a mom, there never seems to be a finish line. I can clean a room and go upstairs to put something away, only to return to a totally demolished downstairs. When one thing is done, three more things beg your attention. So running is starting to become the thing that makes me feel like I have accomplished something during my day.Giving this to myself is not only great for me, but also for the girls. Sophia and Maia love to walk on the treadmill, do situps, and otherwise pretend to exercise. Since I never mention losing weight or feeling fat, and always mention being healthy and getting strong, they are equating exercise with feeling good. Even Celia is getting in on it, with all the pushups/roll overs she is doing! She is close to crawling, so we'll have to start having crawling races around here. I've got to get us all in shape because I don't want kids falling over exhausted when we get to Disneyworld in a little over a month! So happy baby + feeling healty= one happy momma!
