30 Day Shred July 31, 2008

Yesterday my friend Casey came over after work and we did the Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred video. I almost died. And we only did Level 1. It wasn’t even that intense… I’m just WAY WAY WAY out of shape. I have about 10 pounds to lose until I’m my pre-prego weight… (5 from when my Dr weighed me at six weeks.. but I know better…) and I have 17 until I reach where I want to be. Prior to getting pregnant I had just lost about 7 pounds.. not much but I was damn proud! Then BAM, SPLAT… GOLLY GEE WHILIKERS BATMAN! YOU’RE PREGNANT! And I gained 5 pounds in the first 6 weeks. Grr… By the end of my pregnancy I was up 60 pounds… (65 from what i claim my pre-preggo weight.) I was a fatty. Although it was mostly in my belly (according to everyone else) to me that’s pretty gross.

I’ve decided to commit to this video for 30 days and see what happens. Starting officially tomorrow I will do the video EVERYDAY. I know I’ll never wear a bikini and I’ll probably have extra skin on my tummy (Tear to my beautiful flat tummy I used to have, they were only second to my legs), but I want to be FIT at least. I will never love and be ASproud of my body again (stupid stretch marks), but I need to be thin. I want to be able to say that I lost my baby weight when so many woman haven’t been able to. Is that shallow? Yes. Maybe if I was say.. 5-7 years older (not that I still wouldn’t want to feel or still be able to be sexy, but I plan on having like 2 more kids by then and let’s face it.. I’m not that delusional) I wouldn’t expect to still be all skinny.

BUT I’M ONLY 20 YEARS OLD. Gah.

Let’s see how I do… I’ll try to keep this updated… With videos and everything…

Back pay July 30, 2008

For the past week or so myself and two other co-workers have being trying to get back pay for maternity leave we felt jipped out of. To make a long story short (and not cause problems least someone from work finds this offensive) after making a little stink about it we got some answers and might be able to get PAID. Hells yeah… I don’t blame my company because they were misinformed just like I was. Anywho… EXCITEMENT. Who doesn’t want free money? Namely when it’s money you deserve.

Taiden Tuesday Week 7; 26 Weeks July 30, 2008

Aww!!! Sleeping with Daddy…

Sixth Month July 29, 2008

Taiden-

This month has just flown by my little tatot tot! You are such a big boy. 6 months old. Wow.

Your laugh is so infectious. You’re still my happy jabby baby. Once you get the first sound out you talk a lot and really loud. You’re definitely a screamer! Simone will be leaving in a week, but I hope she will come back soon so that you don’t forget her. You will be going back to a daycare center (a different one) or to a home daycare. You are going through a separation phase, but you will still go to her most of the time. You’ve been splashing in the tub for a while, but you just started to splash in the wave pool. You get so excited. I love the surprised look you get when you get water on your face.

You’re really starting to move about… I need to baby proof soon, as in now. If there is something that you really want you will get it no matter how far away or if I’m laying in front of it or even on it. You are a very smart baby. You are very active. Always on the go. You’re two bottom front teeth came in a few weeks ago, and you have started biting. Not to happy about that, but when I tell you no and you smile I can’t help but to grin right back!  You’re my little froggy monkey boy. You like to “jump” towards things you want, and always surprise me by springing over me to get something on the other side of the bed. I’m so excited for you to really start crawling; I can’t wait to chase you around!

We went to Kentucky to visit your Grandpa this past weekend. You did so good on the plane rides there and back. You talked (loudly at first), I think you were excited to be around so many people, and then you fell asleep for most of the flight. While there you got pretty spoiled! I hade to buy an extra bag to check in just for all the new clothes you got! I think Grandpa just loved you. The first grandson!

Your little tail is starting to get curly although not as curly as the front and your hair is finally starting to grow back in on the back of your head. I love playing in your curls, although they are very hard to keep under control.

You’re so beautiful and I love watching you grow.

I love you.

Momma

 

 

Taiden Tuesday Week 6; 25 Weeks (Hookers) July 23, 2008

Pee Water July 23, 2008

While reading a post about preggos pissing their pants… (here) I realized I may not be the only person who wipes while standing up. I’ve always thought it was weird and while I have no qualms with letting Devan watch me pee (well not WATCH, but be in the shower or shaving or having the door open, etc.) I always make him leave to wipe. Cause although I think it’s weird (even while doing it) I always stand up.

I’ve tried to wipe not standing up… it feels even weirder and I’m always scared my hand is going to brush the water. ICk. How do you wipe? (JB, JJ, and CS… you’re my only readers so you all better leave a comment!)

Puppies and pups? July 21, 2008

Wwe’re getting a puppy. A German Shepherd puppy. I got the pictures of out choices today and they are adorable…

My first choice would be the yellow one, then the blue and the red. The blue one has the cutest chunky little face! I love it. They were 3 weeks old yesterday and will be ready on August 10th at 6 weeks. I’m tres excited! And it’s not even for me..  Well it is, but he’s Devan’s Birthday and Christmas Father’s Day Sexi Time present this year. 500.00 plus all the shit I have to buy for it… He’s not getting anything till his next birthday!

So a friend of mine is getting married in October, and she want to lose weight before then (stupid girl…), and I do to. So a few of us (friends/coworkers/whatever) are going to work out every week . I don’t really want to drive to Magna everyday so I suggested we work out at my place Wednesday. But. One of my COWORKERS has a son. Who is bad. As FUCK. After working out a while back we went in the back yard to see what he was doing. The hammock my friend has.. Tore the hell up. It was twisted and tipped (it has a ground base) and the cloth part was no where to be seen. When asked he said something about he took it off and hid it because he thought he broke it and didn’t want to get in trouble. uhm… okay… My friend said he fucks up her yard every time they work out (3 times a week). His mother never says a word.  Now I know he is Autistic, but… I think she either needs to keep him where she can see him, or at least TRY to teach him wrong and right. I know all Autistic children are not the same, but the few I do know are not that damn bad. Anyways… I have a big fountain in my backyard that belonged to Devan’s grandparents. There would be one less child in the world if he did so much as chip the paint on that thing.. And I don’t want to raise Taiden alone.

Only children. July 18, 2008

Last night Devan (casually) goes, “I think I’m done having children.” In my head I’m going, yes because you carried Taiden for 9 months 41 weeks 285 days, before being in labor for 3 days and having him taken removed ripped from your womb utreus.

S- Are you serious?

D- I think one is enough for me…

S- Why

D- (shrugs)

S- No seriously if you’re going to say something like that I want to know why.

D- Just cause.

S- (for about 5 minutes) Nagging why why why?!?

In the end he said it just to piss me off. W.T.F.

Because it’s so much fun to crush someone’s dreams of having a big family with the man they love. Because regardless I will have my big family. With someone. Anyone… well I would probably just freeze his sperm and inject myself with it. Eww.. nevermind…

He probably really only want’s one child after last night. Taiden was up from 3:00 until 4:30… SCREAMING. Then after 5o bagillion trips into his room. He just stopped. I went to check on him (I mean what if he smashed his face down into the blanket and he was dead?!? paranoid much?) he was just chillin’. Laying on his belly, minding his business… Quietly and still wide awake. All he wanted was to be on his stomach? Dude you could have rolled over 2 hours ago, before the screaming even started!

Twilight July 17, 2008

So they’re making Twilight into a movie. I have mixed feelings about this. They did this with Harry Potter and while I like the movies they are different from the books in a lot of ways.

For example.. aha! Just kidding, I could go on for days if I were to do that!

I hope they do don’t stray to far from the original plot of the book. I look at the cast and I think everyone is perfect! Except Jacob… and somedays Robert Pattinson looks horrble to play the part. One thing that bugs me about him is that he doesn’t seem very commited to the part. He says he was supposed to get a six-pack for the role but “it didn’t really work out”. Hmm.. NEXT! Too bad Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom are to old to play the part…

I’m TRYING to re-read Twilight and the other two books before the fourth installment (Breaking Dawn) comes out on the 2nd of August. Is it nerdy that I actually want to go to the Midnight release thingy? Cause I really want to go.

Let’s see what is there to write about life. Nothing. Cause my life is boring.

Wait! Taiden is getting teeth. I can see two coming through on the bottom.. After all the sleepless nights… Finally.

Taiden Tuesday Week 5; 24 Weeks July 15, 2008

I think it’s so cute he fell asleep with these both in his hands! An alcoholic book worm! What it’s only wine!

If you take my Flask Sippy I will hurt you.

Num num num num num (from mommy)= fits of giggles.

Again with the Sippy. It never goes to far.

On my daily walk with Daddy.

I love Tubbie Time.
