24 and 25/365


I was on call this weekend, so I didn't leave the house except to go to the LSU basketball game Saturday night and Church on Sunday morning. Chris worked all weekend, so Amanda hung out with me Saturday until lunch, and then mom came and stayed with me until Sunday afternoon, just in case I had to go to work someone would be with the kids. Of course, the phone never rang! If I wouldn't have been prepared, I would have been there all weekend. I hate hanging in limbo. I even kept my phone with me in church, ready to jump if it rang. And yes, last time I got called in I was at Church for Easter Mass. I was none to happy!


It was nice hanging out with Amanda and mom, though. And Chris and I did get to go out alone, even if it was only to a basketball game.


I started weaning Steven Sunday. I have enough milk that he won't get formula for a few days, but it is coming. I may still nurse him at bedtime for a little while, but we will see. I am ready to loose this weight, and nursing is NOT helping me. I would love to meet the women who think breastfeeding makes the pounds melt away! It makes me hold on to them!!


I know all nursing moms would agree with me, it is a little hard to quit. Nothing is better than breast milk, you don't have to make or clean bottles, and the time spent together is priceless (unless your 2 year old is in your lap at the same time). However, it will be nice to send the kids away for the weekend!! Or heck, I can leave them with Chris and have my own night!!

I didn't take a picture Saturday, (I am going to put the ticket stub from the game in my Project 365 book) but Sunday I took this one of Steven at the gate to the stairs. He did his army crawl to get there, and for some reason he always ends up there!! I have to remember to keep that door closed so he doesn't go down the stairs to the storage room!
