The kids suprised me with their colds. I was nervous in my last post that we'd be up all night after I'd been nursing them all day but it wasn't bad. Besides days of runny noses, it's been pretty normal. Overall though, I'm wiped. I just feel tired. I need exercise and I need to eat a little less. Nursing makes you want to eat and drink constantly and we've had such great summer produce that I've been cooking a lot and hence, eating a lot. Good (healthy) food mostly, but I have a sweet tooth and I always seem to find or cook up something. It results in not being able to lose that last bit in the tummy; but then again, I've been told that that bit of tummy never really goes away. Sigh.
This long weekend though with hubby home an extra day has been nice. Dinner out, a party, a bike ride and picnic with the kids, and time around the house. I read this book that I didn't want to put down and it ended too quickly. I find reading is a great escape when needed and an easy go-to with little kids. You can take it with you and get a few pages in while the kids are doing something that don't need your full attention or you can leave it around the house for that moment. It just works for me. Knitting really doesn't. I don't have the brain power with these guys to switch gears that fast. It seems like it's always a few minutes that I have, not the hour or more that I would like. And it's ok, I know the time will come again.
I'm starting to feel fall. It's not here yet but I can feel it and I'm excited. I signed up on Pinterest this weekend. Lots of my friends are on there and I'm intruiged but so behind. How does it work?
