Heather and Matt Maternity

Heather and Matt are two of the sweetest and most geniuine people you could ever wish to meet.  Jeff and I had the pleasure of having them in our small group a few semesters, but taking their maternity pictures?  No offense to small group... but THAT was the most fun.


Heather and Matt are expecting a baby girl any day now.  Baby Girl is going to be so lucky to have two such down-to-earth and caring people as her parents.  Plus, she is bound to be gorgeous, because, ummm HAVE YOU SEEN THESE TWO?

Lovely on the inside and out I tell yah.

Thank you, Heather and Matt, for being so much fun, for dealing with 'the naked assistant' and for walking so much.  I can't wait to meet the lucky gorgeous girl when she arrives!

See what I mean? Stunning.

Look! It's Jeff the naked assistant!

30 Day Bikram Challenge - Class #12, #13, #14 & #15

Class #12--

• This was my first double!  Jeff had band practice, so I felt ok with doing 3+ hours of bikram related activities.
• I sat right in front because all of the other spots were taken. I immediately felt the need to be perfect.
• I saw the back wall during the pose above.  Even the teacher gave me a shout out!
• First class went quickly because I knew I had a whole 'nuther class to do. 

Class #13-

• Class #2 of my first double
• I packed almonds in my bag to scarf a few between classes, but I was too afraid to eat more than 4 out of fear of what might happen to my stomach if I ate more.  I also gulped a small coconut water out of necessity. 
• My knees were a little less secure in the second class, but I was expecting that. 
• Other than sitting out/modifying due to knee pain, there was nothing else that I had to sit out.
• Can I do four more doubles??

Class #14-

• My second double!  This time I didn't sit out of anything. My knees are going to hate me. 
• I had a bit of a melt down before class because I realized I was going to have to flake on plans I had made in order to knock out another double. Bikram is beginning to take over my life, and I am in pain while I do it.  I'm struggling to see the point and find my original motivation.
• Again... my toenail polish is a disaster.  
• The woman who was doing her 100th class told me that that hardest classes of any challenge are the first 15 classes. I am holding onto that. 

Class #15

• There are some teachers I really jive with, but there are ones that I just find so jarring.  That was the teacher in class 15.  Buuuuh.
• I got two call outs in class. I'm begninning to think there was another Robin in the class or the instructor did not know any one else's name.
• I love when new people come to class. I feel far less inferior.  
• At the end of class, the instructor exists the class and says 'namaste'.  Loosely translated, Namaste means the light/spirit/god in me, bows to the light/spirit/god in you. If I'm honest, sometimes my light is not in the mood to bow to anyones light. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but sometimes I can't help myself. So far I have subbed God bless, toodles, yippee, and gargoyle. Don't know where that last one came from. Toodles.
