I Did It!

After nearly 8.5 months, I have finally lost all the baby weight!  I'm down to my "pre-Marissa" weight, but not necessarily size.  My pants still fit differently than before, but that's okay.  I know some women think that it's not acceptable to take 9 months to lose all the baby weight, but for not really doing anything, I can't complain!  :-D  I'm sure that piece of chocolate pie really helped last night.  Danny has also been losing weight and I have to say he looks great!  He's almost to his "pre-Alicia" weight. :-P  What can I say...he says I'm a good cook.

Marissa started to have a runny nose yesterday afternoon.  She woke up several times in the night and while her spirits are still high, she seems miserable that she can't breathe out of her nose.  I am taking her to the pedi today to see what they have to say about it.  I hate running to the doctor everytime she has a sniffle or a sneeze, but the last time this happened we ended up taking her to the Urgent Care on a Saturday.  We waited 3 hours to be seen, got charged an "after hours" fee and they basically just gave her a prescription without giving much thought to the situation. 

Danny was nice enough to cover for me while I got some much needed sleep last night.  He got up and rocked Marissa a few times and snuggled her to make her feel better.  He's such a great dad!

I ordered Marissa a new outfit a few days ago.  I can't wait for it to come in so she can show it off. ;-)

My pink ladybug diapers are *almost* finished!  I should be receiving them within the next two weeks.  I've been waiting so long but I think they will be well worth the wait.  Marissa is going to be so stylish.

Our calendars are filling up fast!  Between baby shower's, 1st Birthday's, holidays and cook-outs, the summer is going to be over before we know it!  I can't wait to take Marissa to the beach for the first time this summer.  I need to find her a cute bathing suit soon.
