monday, monday
I told Jason that I was going to start a diet today. I am doing good, so far. Of course, it is only noon. I usually blow healthy eating around 5 pm though. Which usually is my ‘witching’ hour. The evening countdown of homework, dinner, and Jason coming home from work. Baths, and bedtime. And, dieting? It sucks. I should throw in some exercise, but yeah. Not really going to happen, because I hardly even have time to put on makeup or brush my hair. I am feeling overwhelmed, and it’s beginning to really get to me.
I am in a doldrum of sorts today. Blake is going through a growing spurt, and has woke up every 2 hours the past several nights to nurse. It wouldn’t be so bad, but he wants to walk to fall back to sleep. Good thing he’s a little cutie. My mood today might be affected by the thought of dieting, cause dude, I can eat. I wasn’t much of an eater while pregnant, but this whole breastfeeding business? I can eat the entire cow, and the barn it sleeps in. I cannot ever seem to get enough to eat. And, am constantly hungry. But, when your husband has lost, oh! so much weight, and constantly points it out, you are left to feel like a fatass standing there drinking a glass of chocolate milk. Ailane had a softball scrimmage last night, and we decided to go pick up dinner at Firehouse Subs. Ailane didn’t want to eat her Oreo cookies, and Jason asked if I wanted them for today. No, dammit, Sunday was my last day to eat. I gobbled those suckers down.
I need to bake, and clean, but Blake just wants to nurse. I am almost tempted to give him solids this week, but, I am determined to hold off until he is 6 months. It’s hard, because like a little bird, he opens his mouth every time he sees food. I bought him some Nuby sippy cups last week, and he LOVES them. But, they will never replace the boob. So, while I am laying here with boob boy, I’m goofing around online playing fun blog quizzes.
Can you believe it? I don’t think my blog is exactly family friendly. But, hey, whatever. Want an instant babysitter for your kids? Pop them some popcorn, and plop them down at a computer with the page parked to my website. They will be entertained for hours. Just remember to start saving for therapy immediately.

you are too funny!!!! i laughed so hard at the “I am doing good so far, but it is only noon.”
finally delurking to say hello and i feel your growth spurt pain!! i think our little ones are only a few weeks apart and we are also in the midst of a major growth spurt. we actually started the cereal last week and as much as she loved it, we had to take her off. no tummy movement, short nights and an increased need to nurse - we couldn’t handle it! and like blake i know she wants it - she chomps her little lips whenever we eat!
sorry for the long comment - just had to say thanks and i feel ya!!
Yes, I am the same way- love to eat in the evening and need to lose the last 10 pounds of baby weight. Why can’t we eat what we want, when we want it and still look good? Life is just so unfair!
