Why is it that when you CANNOT workout, you feel the fattest? I KNOW I gave birth 5 days ago .... and my stomach feels (and LOOKS) like someone played tackle dummy on it ... but for the love of God, could my appetite go away and my thighs feel just ONE centimeter smaller?!?!?!??!
And the pain I feel! The first one did NOT hurt this bad. It isn't even where they cut - its the bruising that just feels so horrible! Every time I walk or move it jars everything - it is so awful.
AGH!
On a good note - little j went to the doctor today and he is healthy and doing just fine. Big J was also checked - came down with a yucky cold, but he is good too. He will do much better when he stops being so picky about everything he eats! I never thought I would have such a finicky child!!!
Having my parents here really helps the helplessness. It also helps the sadness I feel from E not being here .... gave little j his first bath last night, first doctor appointment today ... so many "firsts" that E is going to miss, and that just makes me sad. So very sad.

Daily musings of a working Mom of two boys trying to keep her sanity while Daddy is in Iraq.
About Me
- Mommy
- I am a mommy to two boys and a beautiful little girl. I want to better myself every day and make people smile. I want to laugh at least once a day, have a good cry every once in a while, and feel passionate about at least one thing.
THINGS I HATE:
rudeness, being late, arrogance, abortion, frigid temperatures, Winter 2008, goat cheese, a dirty house, not fitting into my clothes, friends who are self-centered, a slow metabolism, men who have "girly" cell phone rings, rude cashiers, good-byes, people who drive slow in the fast lane, know-it-alls, time changes and, oh yea, did I mention Winter 2008?
THINGS I LOVE: my sons- Joshua and Joseph, my husband- Eric, my parents and sisters, sunny days, my skinny pants, shopping when I have money to spend, saving gift cards until I REALLY need to go shopping, blasting my car stereo with good old rock and roll, when a new magazine makes it into the mailbox, vacation, a phone call or letter from a friend just to check in, Mass, the beach, a good martini, reading a book I cannot put down, fireworks, a clean home, nachos, a good scary movie, the smell of cut grass and of burning leaves, and a great evening with friends and sitting outside on a warm summer night (with a glass or two of wine, of course).
I love to watch reruns on TV, I am a HUGE sports nut (GO KNIGHTS! Chicago Cubbies, Chicago Bulls, Chicago Bears, and to my husband’s dismay, I still root for the good ol’ Tampa Bay Bucs) and I am the world’s biggest fan of my family.
THINGS I WISH WOULD MAKE A COME BACK:
GOOD rock and roll, kids riding their bikes till their house lights came on, MTV with videos, the value of having a TRUE friend, MC Hammer pants, slumber parties, the thrill of an ice cream cone on a warm summer night, being a teenager with NO responsibilities, mall bangs.

Take LOTS AND LOTS of pictures of all those "firsts" and post them in your blog for Eric to see! I know it's not the same as being there, but he can at least feel like he was :(
Glad to hear everything is going well with your parents being there. Get some rest!
