Playtime!

I ventured out of the house today and went to a toddler playtime with the kids. My mommies group was there and it was SO nice to see everyone and their little ones. I really missed seeing them. One of the boys started walking since I was gone and the girls all had longer hair. I don't want to miss as long as I did when I was "out" with Ethan. Plus, Peyton had a good time. I really wanted to get her out to have some fun. She misses her fun mommy. This tired cranky mommy is not much fun for her to be around.

It takes my darling P a while to warm up in situations like that. She just isn't the type of kid to just run and grab toys to play. She stands back, assesses the situation, and takes some time to figure out where she "fits" in. That is exactly the way her mommy is. I have been accused many times of being a b&tch or rude simply because I am uncomfortable in new situations or kind of shy. It takes me time to warm up and then I am outgoing. It is just the way I have always been. I blame some of it on my sign...Scorpio. It is kind of funny that I was in PR for so long because I felt uncomfortable much of the time.

Anyhow, I don't count anymore (haha!)...onto kid #2. I weighed Ethan at the weigh station...he is a whopping 10 pounds 14 ounces! That means he has gained 3 pounds 11 ounces since he was born (5 weeks ago). I keep saying he eats constantly...now I have the weight gain to prove it. Hopefully, he'll help me get back to my pre-prego weight a bit quicker...we'll see. Probably should stop eating Cadbury Cream Eggs, too.
