Well he's still going strong. Hands up to the sky, hands to the floor. When I pull out my yoga mat he bends over and shows me how stretchy his little body still is. It's beautiful. He can even do the splits!

Stretch it out!
When I was around 16 weeks pregnant we went in for an ultrasound. First Arlo was lazy, then he was swimming around like crazy. At one point I swear he was doing downward facing dog. I looked at my husband and asked "Did you see that? He's already a yogi!!"

Patience
Yesterday I did this wonderful, short yoga sequence by Elena Brower on Yogaglo. The description of this 10 minute sequence says "A selection of standing poses, a makeshift mudra for patience and a brief meditation that will help all moms find more strength, space and time in the most challenging moments of your day." First of all, I felt great afterward--spacious, grounded, patient and full of love. Little did I know how much I would need those feelings just a bit later in the afternoon!
My husband is an artist, and I absolutely love that he makes his ink drawings at home rather than in the studio. I did not love it yesterday though, when he left a bin with at least 4 different bottles of ink (without lids!!) within toddler's reach. Luckily I had just done that sweet little yoga sequence, so I was brimming with patience and love and managed to find humor in the situation rather than being too terribly upset during the 45+ minutes it took to clean up this pretty little mess.
