I love drinking really cold tap water from the faucet during the winter.

I love my boys as well.  We went to a movie today with Liam and Wyatt while Beckett stayed at daycare.  I went and picked him up at 1:30pm after the movie.  I just went to work for a few hours this morning because President Obama said today was a holiday.  I thought it would be much busier at work than it was, so I got to leave early.

we are making a modified Thanksgiving dinner for our international student and one of her friends today.  And by we, I mean Jeremy.  Then, have to get the house ready for Peggy to come clean on Monday and Jeremy Is leaving town for two nights :(

It always makes me sad to fly solo.  Hopefully I will be able to get my workouts in. 

I don't think that I will be able to reach my weight loss goal by Dec 31st, but I'm okay with that.  When I started restricting calories to 1800, my milk production went down.  Right now, it's more important me for to get Beckett to a year without having to supplement with formula then to get down to 140 pounds.  So, I'll stay in the low 150s.  I have still been working out 6 days a week since Beckett was 6 weeks old, which is pretty darn impressive since he is going to be 8 months on the 5th..  I have noticed that it is getting harder to think about working out because it is so cold in the basement.  We have the vents shut off down there because it doesn't seem right to pay to heat the entire basement when I'm only down there about 35 minutes a day, and the majority of that I'm moving around sweating.  Needless to say, last night was a stretch video, and I did it upstairs in the living room.

Jeremy got his old train from home that is over 30 years old and set it up.  Wyatt loves it.... they were actually down in the cold basement for almost an hour and I about froze just thinking about them.

Beckett has RSV--- not too bad though, he isn't really running a fever, or coughing.  Being needy, but he usually is when he is at home.  Spent most of the last week in bed with us at night, which means I'm not sleeping too well these days.

Jeremy is downstairs with the boys playing music and dancing.  so sweet.  I'm getting ready to lie down for a nap. I had to deal with blow out poops when both the older boys woke up this morning, so I've earned a good nap.

we need to book our vacation to Florida for next May.

I spent the whole day wanting to say :leave me alone: and :time out:... some days are harder than others, and today was one of those days.

hopefully tomorrow will be better.  I hate having to deal with other people's mistakes sometimes.

Make it stop! Time is going by too quickly! They are getting too big too fast! I don't want my babies to grow up!

My milk supply is back up, and I haven't even got the fenugreek in the mail yet.  Go figure.  I think it has to do with when I ovulate--- even though I haven't gotten my period back, I still spot for a few hours on a particular day and think it has come back, but then it doesn't.  Maybe it has, but is just extremely light, and then I down regulate during or before or after or something.  who knows.


Yesterday we went to Little Goblins.  It was a lot of fun.  It makes me sad thinking about when the boys are older and they won't want to do things like that.

Pumpkins are carved and Jeremy is working on roasting some seeds.  We have a TON.

very thankful for my boys today.  I love Wyatt's mischievous smile and Beckett's sweet smelling head.  And Liam's desire to play "abcs" on the Ipad.  We've really restricted Liam's time on the ipad--- like not at all. we were going to let him do it on the weekends, but we keep telling him he can do it later, and several weekend days he doesn't play on it.  Now, he knows that if gets on there and only does something educational, we won't take it away--- so he sneaks on there whenever he can to practice his letters.

 

This is the stinkbutt after he stripped naked at bedtime.  Luckily, I took Beckett up to bed early and did a double take when leaving the bedroom.  He acted all offended when I woke him to dress him again.

Struggling with my milk production. Ordered some fenugreek offline- might do something, might not. I think I have a refill on metoclapramide,of I'm going to try that too. I've been pumping three times a day and it's just a struggle.

It really bothers me on the biggest loser when they put down folks that *only* lose 5 pounds in the week. A pound is a victory.

I hate driving in the rain when it is dark out. I literally cannot see the lines on the road. I don't feel lke I've ever had this problem before, so I feel super old.

Not looking forward to cold weather coming.  At least this year I won't be super pregnant and will be able to close my jacket,

Maybe I'll start running again. Maybe do another half marathon. easier said then done.

I wish Beckett would go back to sleeping through the night. He has been waking up twice during the night for the past few weeks.

I spent the day at the pumpkin patch with Liam's daycare class. It was very difficult to help watch 23 4 year olds.  I am very thankful that I only have 3 little ones to watch.

The bourbon chase is this weekend and we are hosting the dinner prior to it at our house tomorrow.  Not really looking forward to that because they are coming over right when the boys are suppose to be going down for their naps.  I'm also going to miss Jeremy a lot.

Wyatt is such a stinkbutt but so very very sweet.  Beckett is sitting up like a champ now and eating 4 oz of solids at a time.  Liam is so good with the baby and helping out when I ask him to.

I'm stressing about about Liam's birthday party, so I'm not going to have one for him, at least not a formal one.

Tonight's workout didn't go well. Very nauseated during it... I think I ate too much for dinner.  My milk production has gone down a bunch. That's frustrating.


I'm hoping to go through an entire week without the boys being sick.

busy weekend.  A 4 year old birthday party, an anniversary dinner, and touch a truck on Sunday.

Beckett rolled over at 4.5 months.  Slept through the night until 5:30 two nights in a row.
