'Just another Manic Monday'!
Well, I tossed and turned after doing the baby's 4:30 feed, so I got up and got started with my day. Of course, I had to pump first, since the baby sleeps so well at night I get super full on one side -- of course I have too much milk for this baby...unlike with the previous two, I don't have a stressful job to diminish my supply! So maybe I'll be able to keep him on breastmilk for a while after he's weaned...but we'll be needing a deep freezer soon otherwise, the whole family's gonna be having breastmilk! LOL! Anyway, after pumping, I called my soon-to-be former boss, left her a 2nd message to call me so that I could quit! I then began writing my resignation letter -- I got my labels for the birth announcements shored up; gave Jake some cuddle time after he woke up, made chocolate milk, got Jake dressed, unloaded the dishwasher, loaded the dishwasher, Cassidy woke up -- she's into picking out her clothes the night before so that she can dress herself in the morning -- (awesome!) I of course got caught up on emails & Facebook -- the vortex that is the black hole in my life! Then got the baby fed & dressed...fed myself & Jake some cereal, Cassidy refuses breakfast usually, so I let her finish off her snack from Vacation Bible School last night...pretzels, cereal and M&Ms...then off to aerobics @ the YMCA (or the MCYA, MCMA, CMYA--those are the things Cassidy calls it!) I managed to get all 3 kids there on time, check them in and get to class -- worked out, all 3 did great in the childcare room!! came home fixed lunch while I fed the baby -- I do entirely too much while nursing -- could explain some of the soreness I get from time to time :) Now all are down for a nap...time for Mommy to catch up on some stuff...been searching for a photo website to archive photos and print off for the grandmothers...don't think I've sent them actual photos since Cassidy was a baby! But they always ask..oh, I do send them professional photos..just not actual day-to-day photos. Oh, I ate lunch too...now, trying to plan a trip to the Library, figure out when to take the stale bread to feed the ducks/geese...but really should be stuffing the birth announcements and getting those ready for the mail...did I mention it's 1:37p.m. I've been up since 4:30 a.m. and I had my first cup of coffee in a really LONG time (I usually have a diet coke or coke zero as my a.m. pick me up) but I've been trying to wean myself off of the soda...I think it's making me retain the fluff around my midsection - I know I just had a baby...but I actually WANT to workout for a change! Really, I just want to eat what I want to and not see it show up on my thunder thighs! And I'm not one of those nursing moms who just spontaneously drops weight like a fly...but I've been pregnant or nursing for the last 4 years with little break in between...so who knows, maybe I will get back into that college size! Cassidy has VBS tonight and we might head up to Ritters (a wonderful custard shack) to meet up with some friends tonight..maybe I can justify the custard if we walk there and walk back (about a 2 mile walk with hills!)...it's 1:41...did I mention I drank coffee??!??
