The joys of having two boys.

Leon has been doing somewhat better at night, but last night was the best night out of the past three nights. He woke up at 2 to eat. At first I thought he just wanted to play again so I let him cry for a little while...plus it wears him out! Then after about 15 minutes or so I decided to feed him. He ate about 6 ounces and was right back to sleep. He woke up happy as could be at 6:45 ready to go for the day. Today was probably his best day at daycare in quite a while too. He ate 8 ounces this morning and then he had cereal at daycare along with 6 ounces of formula. Then he had another 5 ounces later on in the day. When we got home, I have decided he wasn't going to wake up because he's hungry tonight...I HOPE!! I gave him 3 1/2 ounces of formula and then gave him some cereal and some squash. He ate 1 tbsp of cereal and almost a whole jar of squash. Then before bed time after his bath, he ate another 4 ounces of formula and was out.I am just hoping that he doesn't wake up because he's hungry tonight...nor because he just decides it's time to get up! Once I find something that works, I'll stick with it. I'm really just experimenting right now. Hopefully I find something that works so mom and dad can get some good sleep too :)

This weekend I am going to go shopping for some new pants for work. I keep losing weight which is good. I bought some pants in December and then by January they were falling off of me, so I bought some more. Those were 2 sizes smaller. Now, the ones I bought then are too big too so I'm going to try to find some more that are 2 sizes smaller. If I don't quite fit into those, I'm not buying any because I don't want to have to turn around in 2 weeks to buy new ones again. From my pre-pregnancy weight, I have lost right at 30 pounds since then. That was last January. I actually lost weight when I got pregnant and then obviously gained that plus some back. I'm going from my pre-pregnancy weight the doctor had me at about 2 weeks before I found out I was pregnant. If you want to be technical, I've only lost about 27, but it's close enough to 30 for me :) I feel kind of bad becuase I had just got new clothes for Christmas and now they are too big...better too big than too small I guess, but still. I am actually getting back into some of my clothes that I hadn't worn for quite some time now. It feels great, but I know I still have a LOT of work to do too.

I have some pictures to post, but right now it won't let me...sorry.

    I know...I feel tons better. I've said that as far as my weight goes, having the baby was the best thing I could have done. It just keeps getting better. The only bad thing is, I have to replace my wardrobe! It's a great feeling though. Thanks!!
