7 Friggin 30

So I woke up to my darling baby girl kicking for breakfast. It’s the most awesome feeling in the world. Ever held a fish in your hand, and feel it wiggle and move anxiously before you put it back into the water? It’s almost like that feeling, but a thousand times more awesome, if you can believe it. I have a very early day today (as you can tell by the ridiculous time on this post). I just finished breakfast, and I have to get ready for my 7:30am school meeting for a client. 7:30am should cease to exist. The world should be fast asleep at 7:30am (including our beautiful Baby Bean!!), but alas, some people think it’s wonderful meeting and discussing important issues like the educational system and how it affects ADHD and bipolar disorder at 7 friggin’ 30 in the morning. I hope I’ll be lucid enough to give my two cents.

Today is also my prenatal yoga class. I find that it is useful in helping me relax and feel less anxious about the worries I have, but at the same time I really miss the hardcore yoga stuff I used to do, like the assisted head stands and the wheel and stuff like that. I was never one to get into the conventional means of exercise, like running on a treadmill or anything like that. Yoga all the way. I can’t wait to be doing Mama and Me yoga with Baby Bean when she’s born. Already a yogini in the womb, she will love it in the big world.
