And then there was one

One parent that is.

The hubster left this morning on a 6 day trip leaving me alone with Baby Girl for the first time ever!  I can't say I'm not nervous or on the verge of a breakdown, but I've had 12 weeks of parenting.  I should be ready for this, right?

I mean tons of single moms do it from day one...

Math and Time PSA

In case you didn't know,

1 hour and 15 minutes does not equal 1.15 hours

That is all.

Thank you.

Running Rewards

I've been running almost every other day since I was cleared at my 6 week post partum doctor's visit.  I'm not running for very long because I've got the baby with me and running with a stroller is a lot harder than running solo.

I just hit my pre-pregnancy weight and by pre-pregnancy, the weight my doctor used as my baseline which was probably 2 months in, so not pre-pre-pregnancy weight just yet, but close!

I'm a firm believer in rewards.  Before becoming pregnant, food was my reward.  Since I'm trying to lose weight and not just maintain, I reward myself with a shower!  I usually shower every other day because #momlife and they usually coincide with runs.  If I don't get a run in, I don't withhold it.  Ewww because that would be gross.  No instead, I use all my fancy smancy bath products in my after run showers.  Lush body scrubs, peppermint foot scrub, Avene toner, Caudalie face mist, Chanel body lotion, the works.  Non-run showers get Cetaphil and Lubriderm.

Just a few more pounds...

Hubster = Toddler

In so many way, but today's post is about his eating habits.

I honestly don't know how he is still alive.  There is nothing green in his diet.  Though he claims to eat green beans, but that's like 6 times a year.  I don't think that counts.  His diet is seriously like a toddlers, maybe even worse, but what's also peculiar is that he only eats whole Triscuits.

Not like whole grain Triscuits, but whole unbroken Triscuits.  I've found a number of opened boxes of Triscuits that are about 90% consumed.  The common trend?  They are all broken Triscuits.

It's like the kid who only eats crustless sandwiches cut into triangles.

So guess who is stuck eating the broken ones?  I'll have two children to deal with soon enough.

Nipples

Not mine!

My brother and his wife bought this blanket for Baby Girl for Christmas while she was still in utero. It was super cute in its original packaging. It was rolled up and looked like a bear. You can kind of still see the bear, but when I look at it, it looks like dog nipples with a face...

It's kinda creepy.
