1. Kaitlyn had a check up today. She's still, as the doctor calls it, tall and "lean." Apparently, American growth charts are too lenient so although Kaitlyn is in the 25% for her weight according to American growth charts, put into a global perspective of height/weight growth, she's really around the 50%. Hum, do they use growth charts for adults? If so, I'll take the American one please!
2. I distinctly remember being about 8 months pregnant and going to the mall one day. I had a near panic attack because I realized it was one of the last times I'd ever be able to just whisk myself off on a whim and go to the mall without a thought of childcare or feedings or naps or any other child-related care taking issue. Although I distinctly remember having that thought, I can no longer remember or even imagine what it felt like to be so alone and carefree. I don't even have the luxury of going to the bathroom by myself anymore.
3. It has been 3.5 weeks since I've been out to eat (other than 2 trips to Chick fil A which are totally excused since it's brand new and prior to those visits, my CFA visits have been few and far between!!). I've been cooking three meals a day for almost a month. I'm running out of ideas. But I suppose after a month, it's okay to start repeating things, right?
4. I'm becoming so domestic aren't I? Before you know it, I'll be showing of pictures of all my cross-stitching projects.
5. Hum, maybe I could use another list. In addition to my Adventure of the Week, my Books to Read, and my Home Projects, I'll post a list of Cross Stitch Projects.
6. I'm totally just kidding. Nothing against cross stitching though, just not my thing.
7. At least, not yet.
I feel your pain Laura. I can't remember how it feels to just go shopping by myself or call up a girlfriend to go see a movie or go out to eat. Doesn't help that said girlfriend is in stupid California. Oh and yeah the simple pleasure of using the bathroom by myself is so gone. I have not mastered the domestic housewife yet. My cooking skills still need some improvement. It is funny how fast life changes once you have a child.
