Just things I want to say

Guppy is suddenly a very active, very social little guy.  It is like a switch flipped in his little brain, and now he is so full of spunk.  He is all smiles and chatter and physical activity.  Very cute.
__________

The weather has been so unbelievably nice this week.  It was 80 degrees today. Lovely.
__________

I have finally started crocheting Guppy a baby blanket.  I am loving the colors I selected and can't wait to see the finished product.  Don't worry, I'll post a picture for your viewing pleasure.
__________

I haven't been baking much lately, which is probably a good thing.  I need to shed some of this excess weight.  I have been feeling fat and frumpy lately.
__________

We have been walking to the park every evening with the kids.  I am counting this as exercise.  Look, I am halfway to skinny already!
__________

I am getting my haircut this weekend.  My hair is long (I haven't cut it since Guppy was born) and my wee little babe loves to pull on it, so I keep it up in a ponytail 90% of the time.  I think that is adding to my frumpy feeling. 
__________

I went to Old Navy today and bought a few things.  It was one of those trips, where I couldn't find anything I loved, but I still managed to spend like $80.  But I need clothes to wear in this warmer weather, so I guess I am just going to wear a bunch of crap I don't really like.
__________

I need to do some major spring cleaning around here.  I feel like my house is so cluttered with junk - especially my bedroom.  I love throwing crap in there and closing the door.  I still have a bag of brand new newborn clothes sitting in one corner.  That means I haven't touched that area in SEVEN MONTHS!
__________

Have I ever told you that I am a cereal junkie?  I LOVE cereal.  I really shouldn't even keep it in the house, because I munch on it all damn day.  I am currently obsessed with Cinnamon Toast Crunch.  I need to wean myself off the constant stream of sugar.
__________

I also need to wean myself off Coca Cola again.  In the middle of a particularly bad week, I caved and bought a 12 pack.  That was in January.  I have been slurping down at least 2 cans per day ever since.  Ugh.  I drank my last Coke about an hour ago.  This is not going to be fun.
__________

I am not giving up my Ben & Jerry's though.

I think you're going to like the short hair. Now Baby C can't reach my hair and yank on it while she is nursing. Ha Baby C I have foiled you! Plus I just feel a little more hip, instead of frumpy, which I totally hear you on, I always feel frumpy while I am nursing.

I always stash stuff in my room, especially to make the rest of my house appear tidy. My dresser is almost entirely buried in crap.

Aaaand I just finished noshing on Red Velvet Cake Ben & Jerry's. Have you tried it? You probably shouldn't. I'm pretty sure it contains crack. Soooo yummy.

Mmmm, sugar. I am trying not to eat so much but I just broke down and got some baking chocolate chips from the pantry. My excuse is I think I am sick. Or I have allergies?

We stash stuff in the guest room.
