Just got back from our early morning workout. Before going to bed late last night Traci asked, "Are you going to cycling with me tomorrow morning?" This was posed more as a statement than a question. I've mentioned before how I love early morning workouts, but since having a baby I haven't gotten back in to that routine quite yet. Traci decided it was time. Just like the time she decided Jenna was too old for bottles. Poor Jenna went cold turkey. When she whimpered "bottle" I had to tell her that Aunt Traci said it was for her own good. And now as I whimper "sleep" Traci reminds me that its for my own good too.
This wasn't my first early morning workout. Yesterday it was swimming at 5 am in cold water for an hour. It would have been a little more enjoyable if I had a swiMP3 player like Traci, especially during that 800 yd set. While Traci got great tunes, I was left to counting laps. Only 600, 400, 150 to go. I'm convinced that's how she lapped me. After that I told her it was MY turn to listen, which only made the rest of the workout that much more painful when I was made to give it back. I know that by the time I get home I'll be in that early morning exercise routine and I'll have my sister to thank. She always knows what's best for me.

Wow. 5 AM and both Traci and Krista are up exercising. Rose gets up at 6 every weekday morning for an hour of streching and light weights. I manage to move to my favorite chair. Get my dog Buddy, my favorite blanket and my I-Pod shuddle and go back to sleep. It amazes me that my girls get up so early. Have they not heard of sleeping in. I have trouble sleeping. An old age malady I am sure. And these ladies get up and face the world like they actually enjoy it. Go girls but please keep it a little quiet. Love DAD
HEY! I get up at 5am too...it's 5:30 right now...however, it is to give kids breathing treatments. I miss my early morning swims. I use to swim at 5am!
