Already?

So the time has come, my oldest child is going to start Kindergarten in the fall. Where did the time go? 5 years ago I was officially overdue, huge, with 29 chins and a butt the size of Kentucky. The birth of Aden was long and painful but the most amazing experience of my life. It was instantaneous unfaltering love. Now he is going to be 5 and going to school. Aden does not want to go to school, he is adamant that he is not going to school and although I know he has to go, I am secretly happy he does not want to leave his mommy. It just seems to unreal. I see pictures from his life thus far and it seems like they were taken just yesterday. How can it be that my baby can be 5 on Thursday?

Spring?

So we have sprung forward..... where the BLEEP is Spring? HAHA. For those of us in northern climates, we have been stuck in the house for the past 5 months. I am going stir crazy. I am ready to pull my hair out and run around nekkid in protest of the cold. Why do I live in Michigan? I have no clue, but it is sure not for the weather. I need the warmth. I need the sun. I need flip flops and tank tops and bronze skin. It is not a WANT, it is a NEED. I can not wait to see the first signs of spring, the tulips trying to break through the cold ground, grass starting to come back to life. Playdates at places other than McDonalds or the germ ridden mall, porch parties and bon fires with the best friends ever..... ahh. I need a time machine, to fast forward time just a few weeks.... or months.... after all we do live in Michigan.

Freaking out

So there is a chance that I may be pregnant and I am so scared. I love the 2 kids I have with all of my heart but the thought of adding another makes me want to jump off of a cliff. Last week we had a bit of an accident and did not use protection, although I tried it was just too late. So here I sit, analyzing every symptom over and over. I am tired, my chest hurts, etc. Of course these symptoms can be attributed to things other than pregnancy but none the less I am scared crapless. Would I love the baby, of course! However I have no desire what so ever to ever EVER EVER be pregnant again.

Stick a wide load sign on my ass

I have had 2 babies now and I know that pregnancy can reek havoc on your body. I know that it takes bla bla bla to put it on and bla bla bla to take it off but damnit my take it off bla is not working. I am so tired of looking in the mirror and seeing my doughy white grossness staring back at me. I blame my pussy pouch and flabby ass on my second born, the spawn of Satan. After having my first I was working and needed cute clothes, all the girls in my office had cute clothes while I sported my pregnancy moo moo's. I started working out,doing Pilates and had gr8 results. I was down to my pre-prreggo weight before getting pregnant with my second spawn. I did good, trying not to gain as much weight the second time around. I have lost over 30 pounds since giving birth and I should be happy but really I am sick with myself. My weight has been fluctuating between 133 and 140 for the past month and a half. I am only 5 feet so that weight makes me chunky. I have a spare tire and a pouch that I hate. My stomach muscles, after being hacked into to remove stubborn Spawn #2, is such a mess. I wish I could have a tummy tuck or something. I was so happy not to have stretch marks on my belly but now it doesn't matter. I still look like I am 3 months post partum. My belly sags and is so gross. I do crunches, but still no results. I hate my pouch, it is so disgusting to look at. It jiggles. I have a jello gut. I watch it wiggle, it makes my babes giggle. GROSS GROSS GROSS !!!

Free and Clearance

When somebody asks if you want to sample something do you think that it is going to cost you? To me a sample is free, am I wrong? Then you have stores who think that clearancing an item is taking a few cents off of the regular price. Come on, that is not clearance. Clearance is taking more than 50% off the original price. I am a clearance shopper. I love a good deal and will rarely if ever pay full price for clothing or shoes. I watch shows like What not to wear ( I am sure some may think I need to be on that show) and I see them get so little for the 5 grand they are wasting. You know what I could do with 5 thousand dollars?? I would have enough clothes for the rest of my life. I am so not into todays fashions as it is. I mean really my ass is too large for stirrup pants and I loathe straight leg jeans. Besides that if I wanted to wear clothes that make me look pregnant, I would get pregnant and wear maternity clothes. Sorry but I never want to look (or feel) pregnant ever again. That chapter of my fashion life is forever closed. Thank GOD!! Back to topic though I hate when you see a clearance sign and a shirt regularly priced 9.99 is not 9.07 Come on, that is not a deal, that is a waste of my time. No need to get my blood pumping in the anticipation of a great price all for that. Really. Then you have the stores like Once Upon A Child or Goodwill where they are asking 7 bucks for used pants. Now they are making it so even the poor cannot afford used clothes. I just don't get it.
