Motivate me Monday #171

April 29, 2013 by Kaysi 52 Comments

Hello everyone!!!  How was your weekend?  Ours was good and crazy, it’s definitely an adjustment having 5 kids.  If you didn’t know already, I went into labor last Sunday and had this cute little boy at 11:48pm Sunday.  I can’t believe he’s already a week old!  We named him Koy and he was 5 lbs 11oz.
Thanks to everyone who linked up last week!!  I had all the intentions to go through the links while I was in the hospital but then I forgot that everything takes longer when you have a newborn and didn’t get to it.  It might be awhile before I find the time to go through the links, just to let you know.
And now its time for the party!!!

I would love it if you followed along.

    Congratulations on your new baby boy. He's a cutie. Please be nice and kind to yourself and take the time you need to enjoy him and rest. It's too easy as women to push ourselves and do too much.

    Enjoy!
