Thanks to the holiday, I gained back 2lbs. That's ok. I'm on my way to working out this week 2xday.
Mornings: Turbo Jam, or kick boxing
Evenings: spinning and weights.

Goal: to be at least at 150 by Xmas.

I just got back from my first day volunteering at the hospital. I worked with 3 different babies. Two of them slept most of the time, so I just held them. They were so cute! The other one I spent the most time with. She was sleeping for a while and then, when I was going to leave to go see another baby she woke up, so I stayed with her and played for a little bit.

Those of you who have been around a while know how bad I want to be a mom. It's the one thing I've been wanting for the last 6 years more than anything, but unfortunately, it hasn't happened. This is such a great way for me to calm my biological clock, and to give some love to this little ones that need it so much.

I'm in love with them. I can't wait to go next week and visit again, possibly see the ones I met today, and maybe meet new ones.

Most of them are in the hospital for long periods of time, and their parents can't always take care of them full time for different situations, mainly because maternity leave in this country is only 3months, and if ou have a sick baby, you have to return to work and can't stay with your sick child all day. Some are premies, others have feeding disorders, some have had to have major surgeries already. It doesn't matter why they are there, they're all perfect little angels, and I'm so lucky and blessed to be able to spend time with them.

My heart is smiling.
