Hello Everyone!
Sorry for being gone so long. Its been uhh a bit busy! I have missed everyone at the kwoon (online and in class) as sometimes babys' schedule for supper and class overlap and I can only pay attention to one thing at a time.
Good news first. I'm feeling so much better than I did 6 weeks ago! In fact, last night was my Best Friends wedding and I had a wonderful time on the dance floor! I do feel a little sore and my legs are giving me that feeling that threatens random charlie horses, but! it was amazing. I am hoping on picking up my weapons more frequently and getting the muscle build up that I have lost from so long "relaxing"
Bad news. Little Mac turned out to be Colic and while this has led to a very distressed baby ergo very distressed parents we seem to have found out the issue is allergies. To milk. To cheese. To my favourite food group. So I am officially a week and a half with out dairy and it has done wonders for the kiddo. She sleeps better, longer and doesn't scowl (as often). I will miss my dear creamy, sweet, chewy, and all the other forms of dairy, but I would trade it again in a heartbeat to help Mac.
I am going to be the first to admit to myself that Kung Fu has not been on the forefront of my mind. Maybe not even the middle of my mind. But I am reminded by myself daily that it is not at the back. There is a least a couple days a week where I will be doing something and be like "man, that would be so good to blog about (and then not)". Or baby Mac likes to be moving sometimes after feedings and I have found that waltzes are a fav for the way they stop and go. And from that, I discovered that I can practice bow stances, cat stances moving horse stances all around my house and it soothes her pretty well.
Good news again! I am preparing to come back to the kwoon in September and hopefully by then Mac will be on a better schedule. I am super excited about the prospect of coming back and even though I know that I will not be 100% what I was before I will get back to it!
Looking forward to seeing all of you again!
Oh! Also my baby has to be the most chattery baby I have every seen. She is now vocalizing with out screaming and is quite good and responding with little aaahhs and ooohhhs. And her smiles are becoming more permanent and less having to do with her little bowels. OKAY! Thats enough of rambling about the baby!
