16 weeks POST-PARTUM

How are you feeling? 

Excited.  This is a big week for our little family!  

Sleep?

We’re getting there…

My Nutrition?

I can’t lie - I’ve been a slacker this week (see ‘Eats’ for proof)

 Any weight loss?

1 pound for a total of 29 pounds putting me at 114

Best moment this week?

Lady date with one of my best girls Ali!  We went for dinner and just gabbed for hours.  

 How is Scarlet coping?

I’m dying to get her in the pool!!!  The weather was cooler here this past week so we did very little outside.  I’m starting to sense she is feeling cooped-up in the house so the vacay will be amazing!

Baby Will?

He’s holding his head up and smiling non-stop!  He babbles and talks and laughs too which makes spending time with him even more fun (if that’s even possible).

His weight?

 I’m guessing 15, 16 pounds

His disposition?

His personality is emerging!!!  If I got a buck for every time he smiled at me during the  day - I’d be a millionaire.  Check this boy out…

What are you looking forward to?

My sister-in-law Laura and her son Charlie are coming over Thursday!  YAYYYY!  And our first get-away as a famjam of four to MEXICO! 

Fourth Trimester Rulebook: I will do my best to implement these rules for the next three months.

1. I will be kind to myself, my mental well-being, my body and my heart.

2. I will do my best to let go of the cleanliness of our house.

3. I will ask for help and ask often.

4. I will do my best to sleep or rest when the baby sleeps.

5. I will resist the urge to feel guilty when I am not with Scarlet and Nate.  I will value and cherish my time with sweet baby William. 

6. I will not workout or be physical ;) for at least 6 weeks
