Beckett Anthony: 18 Months

Beckett had his 18 month well visit on my due date - 5/27.

Playing in the waiting room.

We did the usual measurements and he is 32.5 " tall (which puts him in the 57%) and he weighs 24.6 lbs (54% for his age). He's going to be my mini but mighty little guy!

Playing with the books in Dr Schnick's Suess room.

My feisty little dude is getting so big. He's starting to lose the last little bit of his baby phase and is almost a full blown toddler. To be honest, it makes me a little sad that I don't get to thoroughly enjoy this last little bit of him being a baby with his new brother being here. I'm trying to soak in every second that I can. He's such a sour patch kid. Haha! He'll hug you and kiss you one minute then punch you in the nose and giggle. He's started to speak more and more clearly and saying more words than just gibberish. Most of the time I can make out a word or two when he's talking now. His favorite words are "mine", "more", "please", "bite", "Braz", "Jake", "go", and "Daddy". Much to my dismay, he now calls me "mom" instead of "mommy". :( He's too little to call me "mom" and drop the "-my" from the end. Such is the fate of younger siblings I suppose.

I love my little screeching, tough and tumble little stinker so much!! Don't grow up too fast ok my little love?

Starting weight: 166.4 Last week's weight: 166.4 Current weight: 168.4 Weight +GAIN / -LOSS this week: +2.0 Total weight lost: +2.0 All I'm going to say is this is total Bull$hit. Tune in next week to see the {FREAK SHOW} that is my mystifying, unexplainable, horrifying weight gain. The End.

FAF: Another 1 Bites the Dust!

Starting weight: 166.4 Last week's weight: 163.8 Current weight: 162.8 Weight +GAIN / -LOSS this week: -1.0 Total weight lost: -3.6 Another week of weight loss! Whoop! Its not much but after another slow exercising week, I'll GLADLY take it! I'm very close [again] to what I weighed when I got knocked up with my pwecious little man so I'm feeling good about that fo' sho'... Working out this week has been rough. I haven't really made/had time for a good solid workout so I'm a little disappointed about that but...eh, I'll just keep squeezing them in there whenever I can and as much as I can. We have a gym membership over by my usual sitter so once she's off maternity leave, I'll be able to run to the gym at night before or after I pick up the monster. My diet this week has been unhealthy - not in what I've eaten, just the quantity. I've hardly eaten a thing! My dinner portions have been cut in half, if not more, so I feel that's a po...

When Life Hands You Lemons

Today is the day. Grandpa's visitation and tomorrow's the funeral. The last couple of days its really hit me. He's gone. My Grandpa was a wonderful man. We've all been smiling, laughing and reminising about all the funny things he used to do and say. We fondly remember his sweet tooth and love for all things lemon flavored. But something I never really thought about until now is that he was handed a lot of crappy cards on the health side of life and hasn't been in good health for the last 20 years but I never really heard him complain about it. In fact, every time I saw him he had a huge smile on his face and wanted to know all about what I had been up to and what I was doing. He was so very proud of all of us kids. So proud. Didn't matter what we were doing or what we'd accomplished, his eyes would twinkle with pride. I'm going to miss him terribly. Today and tomorrow are going to be hard but its all the days after that are going to be truly trying... L...
