3/31

I have approximately 10 minutes until Andrew picks me up, which isn't really enough time to like, do any work. So BLOG TIME it is. 

here are some things.

Milo is kicking my butt lately. Andrew's too. He is SO. Freaking. TWO. Impossibly sweet and then dissolves into the most disgusting tantrum in about 3 seconds flat. 

Work has been good. It's hard to wake up at 5 every day, especially when I can't just go home after work and take a nap. But Andrew and I switch off on nap days, so it's not totally hopeless :) And while I'm actually at work, I really enjoy it and the time goes super fast. So it's nice. Milo likes daycare too, as far as we can tell. Although, he does get put in time out quite a lot for being a bully to other kids. He hasn't figured out the sharing thing yet, and unfortunately I don't have the ability to teach him at the house because, guess what, he's my only kid. 

Which brings me to the kid thing. I can't remember what I updated in my last post but basically we're not trying, but not preventing. I'm just trying to eat healthy and exercise and not be stressed and hope that things work out the way we want them to. I've been going swimming 3-4 days a week at the gym, and just eating as healthy as I can. But like I said, I'm trying not to be stressed- so if I decide I want a burger one day, I get a burger and don't let myself feel bad about it. So far it's working pretty well. I've lost like 6ish pounds in 2 weeks? Maybe? Idk. I'm just really trying not to pay attention to all the little details like I usually do. I'm trying to just trust in my body and do what feels good. 

I will say, without going into too much detail, that this current cycle is the first cycle since I got pregnant with Milo that I've had all of my classic, erm, ovulating symptoms. haha Coupled with last month being my first normal length cycle, I'm feeling hopeful that being healthy is helping my body remember how to function again. Which hopefully mean there will be a baby soon. But honestly, for right now.. I'm content. I will be OVERJOYED when it happens. But Milo has been so hard, and we are in such a transitory state right now that it feels okay that it hasn't happened yet.

So that's where I'm at.

Oh yeah, and I officially graduate in a month, which means I have to defend my thesis in approximately a month... which means I should probably write my thesis. Heh. But I talked to my adviser today and I know exactly what I'm going to do... I just have to do it.

Milo keeps getting ear infections and the doctor said he might need tubes...bleh

ANDREWS HERE. PEACE OUT.
