Amazing!


Baby Jay Is amazing!! That's really all you need to know but I will give you examples for your reading pleasure!!
He now falls asleep ON HIS OWN (No more rocking, bouncing, nursing to sleep he just straight up goes in his crib and falls asleep and with nearly no fuss)!
He sleeps from 8pm to 6am
He smiles and giggles and it's just about the cutest thing ever
He is going on day 4 without his beloved binkie and he is being a real champ.
I love that little boy more than I ever thought possible.
Thanks for being such a good boy Baby Jay Mommy loves you!

Day One: Something you hate about yourself

Day One: Something You Hate About Yourself

I could write this post about the stretch marks that now line my boobs or the extra bazzilion pounds that are now clinging to my thighs because I HATE those things about myself, I do. But, I want to write about something I have to think a little bit harder about. . .

I hate my complete lack in self control. I have arguments with myself all day long becuase of the self control I do not posses. Once I get my head around something it's really hard for me to sway from that "something" even if it's not something I consciously choose. It could be--and a lot of the time is--a subconscious decisions. Once it’s decided I can't sway it no matter how hard I try. I have no self control. It's like something bigger than me is living in my brain and controlling my thoughts and subsequently my actions at times. I know I don't want to do something, I know I may regret the something once I have done it yet I cannot tell that bigger thing in my brain NO.

It can be a simple as eating a piece of candy (or the whole box) I know I will be mad at myself after I eat it, I know it is un-healthy and isn't going to help me reach my post-prego weight loss goal yet I CANNOT stop that little --no-- big voice in my head telling me to just eat the damn piece of candy.

I hate not being able to get through a day without having a battle with myself over something because of my lack in self control. I hate the battle.

I hate my lack in self control that is what I hate about myself right now tomorrow it may change, it may be different but today this is it.

OHHH Boy
