Monday! I think? Who knows / cares what day it is lately. Well, actually, Monday - Friday our little ball of energy goes to preschool from 9/10a -5:30p, so it IS important to keep track of the days, because I love that dude SO MUCH it’s ridiculous, but I also LOVE that he is occupied 5 days a week right now because two critters in the house feels like a million critters in the house. So we need to remember that it is Monday, etc. so that Joaquin makes it to school and such.

I LOVE MY KIDS. It’s exhausting and hard and challenging and etc., but there’s always a moment in my day when I am looking at the two humans that I MADE IN MY BELLY (UTERUS) and I’m just blown away. I can’t wait until I am NOT a sleep-deprived zombie and I can enjoy this EVEN MOAR.

I lost another half-pound or so, so I’m about 12 (plus or minus 2) lbs away from my ‘pre-pregnancy’ / goal weight, which seems like a lot, but slowly but surely we will get there. I should be cleared to exercise in about 10 days, and I’m actually searching the interwebs for a TREADMILL because I anticipate that it is going to be hard to drag myself to the gym until Aurion is older – plus, she can’t go to the gym daycare until she is 9 months old, so there’s that. And I am eager to get back into my clothes that definitely do not fit whatsoever right now.

She is a MONTH old today. So many feels about this. Excited and relieved that she is growing and thriving; sad that the baby days are going by so fast; exhausted because it’s been SO LONG since I’ve had a good night’s sleep; optimistic that sleep will sort itself out soon, etc.

Anyway, how about some pics!?
