Truth Tuesday

  • Thanks to the Circle of Moms "Top 25..."  I have found quite a few really, really awesome blogs to follow.  I really enjoy reading what others do!!
  • I have been walking on the dam ( a popular place in my town, its 2 miles across and back) with my best friend almost every day, and I feel so much better already. 
  • Tomorrow I start my "healthy eating plan"  and I cant call it a diet....I will ALWAYS fail a diet...but a plan, Im super great at plans and planning.
  • I still wear full pannel maternity pants....yup I do.  In fact, when I was 2 months PP I bought 3 more pairs.  I cant bring myself to see what size I actually am post babies.  I know that since being pregnant with two babies, things have, well, shifted.  I dont have the same body shape as I did pre babies.  
  • I put hair extensions in my hair the other night (permanent ones that I did myself) they look really awesome.  I have been really stressed out lately.  Add that plus postpartum hair loss and i wound up with half the head of hair I had BEFORE i was pregnant.  Its kinda the one thing I have that makes me feel pretty.  And once i started losing huge clumps of it, my self esteem took a huge hit.
  • I HATE when people tell me whats wrong with my girls when they cry.  Last night my grandmother in law (that sounds odd) was holding Laramie and she started to cry.  She said to me "I think she has an ear infection.  Shes acting like she has an ear infection.  Are you going to get that checked out?"  Umm, no, it isnt her ears but thanks genius.  Shes teething.  Its 8:30pm and bed time has been here and gone....shes hungry and ready for bed!  Stop acting like you know whats up!  Wow I feel better :)
  • I am trying to see the positive in every situation, rather than the negative.  I find myself only recognising the negative in people, rather than all the good.  Im working on that.
Alright thats enough truth for one day! And since I talked a lot about my pregnant self, heres a picture of me at 37 weeks 1 day...this was 1 week and 1 day before the girlies were born!! (my mom doesnt have the picture of me the night before on her computer, but yes, I got BIGGER than THIS!

Truth Tuesdays

This is my first time doing "Truth Tuesdays"  so lets see how it goes.

  • I always told myself that I would get healthy once the girls arrived and that I would set a good example.  Well, I am really, really failing at it.  I have yet t even load up the girls and go for a walk.  ( though im going on one in about 20 minutes!) I eat a ton of crap.  I lost all the "baby weight" while breastfeeding, but since stopping (yeah were not getting into that one) I have gained about 20lbs back.  I seriously need to get back on the wagon
  • When it comes to solids, I am clueless.  Like...its a whole different language!  The girls are 6 months now and I just feel lost.  I m pretty intimidated by the whole thing...I wish someone would just sit me down and explain it to me step by step.  I need strict instructions!
  • I am a worrier.  I worry from the time I wake up until I finally go to sleep.  I drive myself (and Nick!) crazy with my worrying. Strange part is, I never worried until I was pregnant...

     And thats all for This Tuesday....im a little short on time or I would write more :)
