We wanted our kids close in age (omg what was I thinking) so I only tried to lose weight in between pregnancies. But it used to be my job to be in shape and it's so hard knowing that I've got a long way to go to get back there.
WE WILL DO IT!
Ummmm I haven't even started gaining yet and I'm already wondering how quickly I'll lose my weight this time around. Most messed up, party of one??
I am also already looking forward to when I won't be breastfeeding anymore. Again, cart before horse here. I am insane!
I'm laying in bed trying to decide how I can get out of cooking dinner but even take out sounds shitty. I've hit rock bottom! ::sob::
BIL is getting married in 2.5 months so I'm sure I will look just amazing in those family pictures
I hope you think of something that sounds good to eat soon!
She's been acting up at bedtime for the past 2 weeks. Since she started in her new crèche. Yes, probably linked. I'm talking serious separation anxiety, wants to change her own diaper, put everything in her crib. We let her CIO more or less, checking every now and then.
Tonight wasn't too bad going to bed. But a short while ago (2+ hrs after going to sleep) she was crying out. And then stopped. And then started again. I went up, picked her up and wondered why I could feel her naked bum......!!
Diaper was around her waist and she had been lying in a pool of wee! And didn't want me to put her down to put new diaper on or change the bed, including mattress protector.
Did I mention DH was out at a golfing thing with my parents at the time??
Sitting here pumping while DD naps and DS watches Daniel Tiger.
DD's lip and tongue tie slipping went well. She's been sleeping most of the day. She had a bottle around 3 and then spit up on me - which was especially awesome because it got in my hair and dripped down my chest. Woohoo! I have to laugh.
Glad it's the weekend - maybe DH and I will be able to have an actual conversation! We just haven't had time to talk about non-kid stuff.
namasteak - I can sympathize! My brother is getting married in 5 weeks. DD will be almost 8 weeks. I am a bridesmaid. I bought a dress one size up from my pre-pregnancy size which I think should fit. But I certainly wish I had more time to get in shape!!
My H planned something very special that I love for my birthday tomorrow...but I'm in tears. I don't think I can go, my anxiety is out of control just thinking about the day. I need to go see a Doctor, I suspect I have celiac (like my sister) which is giving me digestive issues (which ice had to varying degrees for 20yrs) which of course raises my already present anxiety. I feel so bad...I want to go, I don't want to seem ungrateful. But the alternative could be a disaster.
We signed up for sling today so DH can watch the Baylor game tonight. The plan was to cancel after the free 7 day trial. But I think I'm already hooked. The Goonies is on!!!! Maybe we will keep it through football season.....lol we don't even really watch football.
Just landed in Denver for Phish weekend #2. This woman behind me on the plane heard me mention I was going to a concert tonight and she was like OMG IS IT TAY-TAY?!

Me: huh?
Her: are you seeing Taylor Swift?!
Me: oh lady. Have you ever got the wrong girl.
Whenever I'm going to a concert and somebody asks who I'm going to see, I just tell them, "Someone obscure who I'm sure you've never heard of." It's usually the truth. Ha.
For some reason I decided the night before Mother's Day this year was the best time to read this to DD for the first time. I was sobbing so hard DH had to finish. All I could do was sit there and hold DDs hand. I have Mothers Day issues anyway, this was just poor planning. Haven't read it since.
I started potty training today and I think Audrey saved up all her pee got nap time. She had no accidents throughout the day, but never actually used her potty- instead just peed in her diaper.
I know some PTing people say to get rid of the diapers for naps too, but that seems like a huge mess.
I'm at the inlaws. My mil had FIL go get instant mashed potatoes this morning for this meal on Sunday of chicken and noodles. Apparently tradition says you put it over mashed potatoes. I have a lot of issues and judgement over mashed potatoes that are instant. I realize this is crazy and that I'm a potato snob but who can't make fresh mashed potatoes. Why do instant even exist? And isn't the noodle the carb. I'm all about carb overload but it seems silly.
My inlaws eating habits in general confuse me and are diet opposite mine.
I'm with you on the instant potatoes, but my husband introduced me to chicken and noodles with mashed potatoes and it was life changing. It seems so wrong but it is delicious (well, with real potatoes it is)!

It was a good run, but dd officially has stinky feet. I think part of it is that her new daycare wears shoes all day, where her old one took them off inside. I busted out to foot deodorant tonight in hopes it helps.
DH got asked to travel to Seattle for an in-person interview next week. He's excited but I'm nervous at the prospect of moving away from family and a place I'm familiar with.

Welcome to the club. I don't know how since he has such tiny feet - but they smell so bad! We even sing a song about having tiny little stinker feet.
We're entering day 2 of a boil water advisory (since 3 pm yesterday). I feel like I'm camping in my house because I'm boiling water to wash dishes (no dishwasher). My kids really need a bath but they can't get any water in their mouths.
It's like living in Peru! But we didn't boil water to wash dishes, we just made sure they were dry before using them and it was fine.
