Ho Hum...

Not too much going on this week (which isn't a bad thing ;) Mondays seem to be my 'catch up around the house' days--laundry, cleaning, etc. Unbelieveably, I'm looking at the clock and realizing that Reid and I slept a little longer than usual, did a load of laundry (and #2's in the washer), gave him a bath, ate lunch, cleaned the bathroom and kitchen, plus did a little stint on the treadmill. Not much to show for it, but guess I've accomplished way more than I thought! Next on the list is tackling my mountain of paperwork to be filed (that's definitely been waaaay back on a burner somewhere, lol) and I'm hoping to get my HUGE Snapfish order in soon so I can fill in some pics for his baby book. Never knew I'd spend $80 on one picture order alone...but I just couldn't choose which pics I wanted b/c they were all so cute ;) I do find it ridiculous that they charge sooo much for s/h. Sheesh.

Laura, this one's for you:

I am still in awe that Reid's eyes are so beautiful...they're a steel blue. I'm sure it'll change to brown one of these days, but I'm trying to get pictures while I can. This really doesn't do them justice, but at least you get an idea.

I am still shocked at how "off" my poor body is after all it's been through. My tummy, face, and feet are peeling like I'm a lizard shedding my skin or something. I slather on the lotion every single night after showering (and now in the mornings, too), drink a TON of water, and eat as healthy as I can. Don't get me wrong--the Blue Bell is still a part of my diet ;) Gotta have some fun in there somewhere!! I look relatively normal again, but still have ten pounds to go (I've lost 30, now) and about 5 inches to go on my waist... Guess that's not too bad for having a 5 1/2 week old, but seems like it's taking forever...mainly b/c none of my regular clothes fit, yet maternity stuff's too big. I bought a few things to tide me over during this in between period--Reid had a fully tummy, so he was a good little shopper at Kohl's the other day :)
