Parenthood, Toddler Tantrums, & Weddings

If you're not willing to abandon your ego, spontaneity, late nights dragging in when the sun is coming up, bar hoping, sleeping in, & getting anywhere in a timely manner... then you shouldn't be a parent :)

It's stormy & gross outside. B & I are cuddling & watching Despicable Me. Best day off <3

I'll never understand people that don't love their children. I had roommates that were like that. They were so bad I had to testify against them in court.

I'm constantly hugging, squeezing, tickling, squishing, cuddling, & loving on my kid. It's gross lol

She's a pain in my neck. She's hard headed & she makes me crazy. But it's because she's 2.

Even when she's throwing one of her many tantrums, she makes me laugh & it's really hard to parent your child when you're laughing at her.

I've never spent more than 48hrs away from her (that was hard enough) & our honeymoon is 5 days (ahhhhhhh!) I probably won't enjoy myself since I'll be missing her so. She probably won't notice since Grandma Ward has so many fun things planned for them to do.

All of my mom friends laugh at me & tell me to let it go, that I deserve a break...

*le sigh*

90 days...

I'm looking forward to our wedding & honeymoon. I'm looking forward to 5 days on a beach with my husband :}

And, I'm super excited to make our little family official <3

Parenting

Being a parent means putting your children above everything else. It also means teaching them that they are responsible for their feelings, actions, and words. That they aren't the entitled to be the center of the universe. Luckily for me, I have an amazing partner.

There's something to that saying: "Anybody can make a baby, but it takes a real man to be a daddy."

Wedding Workouts!

Holy crap y'all. My super fit bff is killing me with these workouts. We ran 3 miles around Lake Pflugerville on Monday. We stopped at every bridge & bench to do squats, pushups, & arm dip thingys (no, I have no idea what the correct effing term is & I also don't really care). My legs hate me. 7a workouts on my days off... ughhhh. Why can't I just have my 20 yro body back? Oh well. I just have to remember I'll be in a bikini for 5 days & I'm not planning on subjecting anyone to this hot mess! On the bright side my baby pooch is almost completely gone, my booty is ridiculous, & there's a visible difference in the amount of cellulite in my thighs. I feel good. I'm not as tired. Also, outside of work my mood has greatly improved!

103 days until I do!
