have you tried "Danskin" leggings? they are great for working out. nylon with a little spandex. they stay black even if you wash and dry them a bunch. i have 2 pairs i've worn for 3 years and they still look brand new. not too thick, not too thin, and no camel toe. they're also not too expensive.

I'm so glad you got something you like! Don't forget about eBay though when you want those jeans... :)

Now I'm all obsessed with the Gap Body sports bra!...

Now I'm all obsessed with the Gap Body sports bra!!! Thanks, Katie, thanks a lot... And since I just spent my "fun money" on my nightmare of a Jeep repair, no bra for me! Okay, who am I kidding? I don't really need to buy groceries this week. I'm gettin' the bra!

Glad you got to buy the fancy-pants, well, pants! I bet you look like a serious athlete in them. No more depressed clown!

I'm due August 6 and my parents have a pool and our small neighborhood pool is across the street from our house so I do plan on swimming (or floating anyway). Maybe I'll try old navy and save the giftcard for some nice wicking capris (wink, wink) so I can look cute-ish while trying to get some semblance of a body back after baby.

Yay! New workout gear! Summer is coming and you ...

2008-04-03T10:01:00.000-07:00

Yay! New workout gear! Summer is coming and you won't wear jeans then anyway! Then in the fall when you are a perfect size 6 you can get your new jeans and knock the socks off the world! Woo-woo!

Get on with your bad self! :)

Lol, I need a new sportsbra! Babies do really weird things to your body - like shrink things you don't want them to...

Hey, I should have let you know runnermom is Donna. I'm having identity issues!

2008-04-03T09:28:00.000-07:00

No, we can't have you dressing like a depressed clown when you work out!

Glad you found a purchase you love. That's the most important part! For me (even though I voted for jeans), workout pants are really what I spend the most time in, so it's nice to have good fitting cute ones.

You are so brave to venture out shopping with all three young 'uns! Two is my limit. Or One. Or none!

2008-04-03T08:00:00.000-07:00

amber, when are you due? Are you going to be swimming a lot? I've never even tried on a Gap swimsuit, so I'm no help there. If it were me, I'd probably save it til after. But if you spend it now, it's really nice to feel cute when you're pregs. Then again, It's nice to have something like that to help out when your body is changing so much post-baby. Then again, your body will be changing a lot (you know?) so I don't know.

...lot of help I am...

2008-04-03T07:42:00.000-07:00

MIz, will I never NOT think of yesterdays post when parking at the gym?
LOL! Me too.
(And I was laughing to myself all day yesterday about Carlarious...)

Scrumpy, thanks, I think you're right. :)

Amber, be right back, I can't pry the baby off of me right now...

2008-04-03T07:35:00.001-07:00

Yay for new workout wear. I too have a gap giftcard i got at Christmas and I can't decide whether to get a cute shirt or maternity swim suit or wait till after I have the baby for a cute something or another. What do you think? have you ever worn their swimsuits? Just curious since you seem pretty diehard on the Gap Body line.

2008-04-03T07:35:00.000-07:00

Robin, I know. It's funny, I don't really ever care what I workout it (obviously), but just the look and feel of better stuff actually made me feel a little better and made me want to go workout. So even if it's a temporary motivator, I'll take it. As for the kids, I know, I'm insane. I don't usually ever take them clothes shopping, but desperate times call for desperate measures!

Thanks WM, I'll try to post a picture when I actually get a chance to go running later today.

cara, I love gap, but they can be too expensive for me too. Me too. THe card was actually from leftover rewards points on one of our credit cards. No one gets me gift cards there either. :)
ANd I'm not in the 6 just yet. Trust me, you'll KNOW when I get there!

Good for you! It sounds like you'll get tons of us...

2008-04-03T07:17:00.000-07:00

Good for you! It sounds like you'll get tons of use out of them, which definitely makes the splurge worth it. Plus, it is just more fun to work out when you are looking cute. :)

2008-04-03T07:15:00.000-07:00

totally what I would have done (down to the toddler heading in and out of dressing room experiences) as that new workout stuff will motivate (and wick) the hell out of you!

Now, two other things:

will I never NOT think of yesterdays post when parking at the gym?

now Im tempted to start a new category titled: Carlarious....or not?

have a great day.

2008-04-03T06:45:00.001-07:00

I love gap, but they can be too expensive for me too. heh. No one gives me gift cards there. Booo. hahaha.

Sounds like some fancy pants though. Woo hoo.

And good job on getting into the 6's! That was your goal right?

ah, you crack me up with "depressed clown"! Yay ...

2008-04-03T06:45:00.000-07:00

ah, you crack me up with "depressed clown"! Yay for new capris from Gap! Enjoy them because you totally deserved them.

(and I'm still in awe of the fact that you took THREE children clothes shopping!)

2008-04-03T06:44:00.000-07:00

BTW, you are a braver woman than I...taking your kids clothes shopping. And I am laughing hysterically about the toddler walking around with the umbrella stroller on his butt. Fortunately niether one of my kids have figured that one out!

2008-04-03T06:32:00.000-07:00

Yahoo! I'm jealous. I'm in the same boat. I am wearing the same workout clothes I wore throughout my last pregnancy (until I couldn't,) and after. AND, I was thirty pounds heavier when I bought these clothes. So not only are they old and faded, they are really big. Maybe I will hit the outlet mall this weekend and see what I can find.

I think you made the right choice. :)
