Back from the movies....... we saw Spy Kids 3D... I have to say, I thought it was GREAT!!! I really enjoyed it!!
Looks like it's been slow here... no problem, I can finally stay caught up!
Speaking of slow, I wonder how Melissa is doing. Maybe no word means baby has arrived> I will keep my fingers crossed!
Spryng, I considered usinbg an IUD after 2nd child was born. I had a lot of complications with that pregnancy that were 95% likely to repeat with another pregnancy. We were pretty sure we didn't want any more kids, but didn't want to do anything permanant since I was only 25 years old. As it turned out, we did nothing and 3rd child was born 3 years later!
I had my tubes tied during my last c-section.
Ginny, I cracked up at your story about the b'day party, since it's exactly something I would do. I am famous for being late to get my kids to parties because I am stuck in a long line at Wal-MArt to buy the gift along the way!
Well, youngest ds is snoozing on the couch... the movie pooped him out. I am hoping the older 2 can get along for a little while so I can lie on the other couch and doze til it's time to make dinner. I am wiped out from working the past 2 nights........ I just figured out that in the last 48hours, I have slept 9 hours, and none of it was really good sleep, and only 2 or 3 hour snatches at a time. Honestly, I don't know how I'm not falling off my chair. Obviously, I have not gotten any exercise in. But I don't think my eating has been too bad. Yesterday, I only ate a 3 homemade chicken nuggets and 3 ears of fresh corn, no butter or salt. I made a wonderful summer squash soup which I brought to work and had along with a small slice of focaccia bread, some fruit, and a yogurt bar (that was overnite last night). Today, I hadn't had anything until we went to the movies where I ate just a very little bit of popcorn, and just now the last 2 leftover chick. nuggets. Dinner will be very simple, probably some leftover soup and the last few ears of corn. It's hard to figure it out, though. The nights I work, I eat normally during that day, then I go to work and have a meal during the night, when most normal people are sleeping and don't eat. So, it gives me and extra meal and calories for that 24 hour period. But then, the next day, I don't eat for almost the entire day, with the exception of a very light dinner. If it's a weekday and I can't sleep because I have the kids, then I am just too tired to eat. If it's a weekend and I can sleep because dh is home, then I just sleep the day away and don't eat. It seems like it would all even out, doesn't it? Maybe I should try keeping a log for a week so I can really tell.
Anyway, I have been long-winded enough. We are taking the kids to Six Flags tomorrow, so all that walking will be my exercise for the day. I have to work Sunday night, so the day will just be spent quietly around the house.
Hope everyone has a good weekend!
