Bubbles Bursting

I've officially started feeling Cooper kicking in my belly.  I started feeling him on the flight home from Florida.  It feels like bubbles, bubbles bursting.  It's sort of a weird feeling at first.  I've heard it described as gas or indigestion...I've never experienced that which is also why I know that it's Cooper.  It's like a lava lamp with the bubbles gurgling up to the top.  It's funky.  I get really excited when I feel it, which is normally when I'm sitting down not doing much (watching a movie on the airplane, working at my desk, etc.)  Pretty cool stuff

Gym

Sharon and I recently cancelled our gym membership at 24 Hour based on the simple fact that we don't go to the gym.  And, because I'm pregnant, my theory is that we won't go when the baby is born.  Well, even though we cancelled we can still use the gym unitl March/April, so we went last night with some friends.  When we got there Sharon wanted to ask if there were any membership specials going on.  She had a hard time cancelling the membership in the first place so you can appreciate her asking.  So we talked with a membership counselor guy, BIG JOHN, he is big, who recently lost 240 pounds (he showed us pictures).  We decided we would talk it over while we worked out.  I swam and Sharon lifted weights with our friend.  Well, when we met up again she said we should join.  We were going to do the prepaid membership where you pay for 3 years and then the renewal after the 3 years is 49 a month.  Good deal really. 

As we were leaving we decided to sign back up!  With that membership now, we get 5 free sessions with a personal trainer too. Well, I was the bright one last night at 8pm to schedule my first session this morning at 6am!!!!  Whew hew, nothing like getting up and getting going.  It was a good time.  She had me doing weights and talking about my dogs to keep me motivated.  I'm pretty sore now and feel like I had a full day and it's only 9am. 

I do like the Hollywood 24 Hour, it's a nice facility and clean.  Busy though, busy all the time especially after work.  This morning there were people there but you could get on any machine you wanted so that's good.
