3 month abs
Recently daddy fitness has been a topic of discussion. Metrodad told us about his fights with Hector, and my wife (who exercised throughout her pregnancy and has been exercising again for the past 6 weeks) has been hinting about how it might be time for me to start exercising again (something about a good example for our children, yada, yada, yada. But she’s right, so what can I say?). So, I dug out the running shoes two days ago and got on our very nice torture device treadmill.
I’m still sore.
The ultimate indignity occurred this morning, however. While changing TheMonk’s diaper he started doing straight-legged leg lifts (while smiling – as if to say, look how it’s done old man). I glanced down at his tummy to see total definition in his abdominal area.
My 3 month old has better abs than I do.
*Sigh*
If you need me, I’ll be in the garage on the torture device treadmill.

His abs may be great, but I bet he really stinks on the treadmill! (For now.)

Oh… just wait. I wish I had the muscle to wait ratio that Hayes has. Actually, I’ll just settle for muscle. I’m so out of shape.

Way to go JT! My lil 14 month old still has a pot-belly: no definition there!

Mary: His parents were both competitive runners in college. I don’t think he’s got a choice about the treadmill. (Okay, he does have a choice but I really, really hope he’s a runner!)

I never had 3-month abs. Not even when I was 3 months. After a twin pregnancy? Aaaaaaaa-ha-ha-ha! Looks like I have 3-months-along abs.

Becky, my wife feels your pain. She’s a modest woman who used to have a really hard, flat stomach. Now, she’s wishing she showed it off more then.

[...] Childs Play X2 is hilarious and has two little ones. Lots of good posts like 3-month abs, Movie Talk, and his parenting secrets to name a few recent ones. [...]
