We took Noah in today for the snip snip. Needless to say, I stepped out of the room and made Tyler stay in there with him. Both boys did great :) I thought I could handle it, but when the Dr. started explaining the process, I decided to exit stage left. I love the nurse in the dr's office. She's an older lady and is just so cute with Noah. She is always talking the baby talk to him. lol. Today she said (in her baby voice) "you look like a total boy, no one would ever mistake that little face for a girls." It was kinda random, but cute! She took Noah to weigh him and the little guy has gained 7 ounces since our last visit which was only 4 days ago. That's my boy! When I stepped out of the room, I decided to weigh myself. I was a little nervous because I haven't since I had the baby, but I am proud to say I am down 20 lbs. YEAH BOI!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, I only have 20 to go. I am itching to get out of this house and run like crazy. I am sure I will change my mind once my feet hit the pavement, but it's a great thought :) It's only been a week and a half since I had him so I don't want to rush things too much. Also, it is raining cats and dogs today so hopefully that will be over and spring will be finally here when I decide to step out!!! I just hope that I haven't hit a plateau. But if so, there is always Dr. 90210 ;)
Also, I am intrigued by a new show. It's called hoarders. It's on TLC on Sunday nights. Now, it may not be totally new, but it's new to me. I am so flabberghasted by these people. The FILTH!!!!!!! The whole show makes me feel two things. 1. Sick...to my stomach that people can live like this and 2. So great about my own house/life. Seriously, I feel sooooooooo clean. Some of the episodes are seriously so bad that I have to change the channel. It's sad!
Good for you! 20 lbs is a great start! I've never come so close to passing out as I did watching Ryan's circ. Seriously, barbaric, and I can handle medical stuff. Not sure if it was the severity of it all, or the fact that it was my own sweet little boy, either way, I about laid out flat! Yuck. Yes, I can't even watch hoarders, makes me a vomit in my mouth a little.
ReplyDeleteYay for the weight gain for Noah...and YAYAYAYAYA for the weight loss for you! I know the feeling of wanting to get right back at running. that six weeks seems to drag {well i never wait the full 6 to run anyway! i'm a rebel like that. ha!}
ReplyDeleteI still remember when I got the ole snip snip. I was only a few days old but a little boy never forgets such pain and agony. I sympathize with you, young Noah Matlock and all boys that are subjected to this archaic method mutilation.
ReplyDeleteWOO HOOO! go YOU for losing the weight to quickly (Ava's gonna be 35 and I'll still be blaming her for "baby weight"... sad, so sad)
ReplyDeletehahah... Zachary's comment made me laugh!
I've watched that show before and also had to change channels. It's disgusting how some people live. Glad to hear about the gain - the snip snip is seriously the worst part with boys. After that - it's mostly a piece of cake!
ReplyDeleteLike I said before, Noah will thank you one day for the circ. He'll never remember it :) Way to go on the 20lb loss. Once you can run again, the other 20 will be gone before long. Hoarders is motivating. After I watched an episode, I cleaned out the in-laws pantry and took apart the fridge until it was spotless. Maybe I'm OCD, but it felt good. Miss you guys already. Keep the pics of Noah Bear coming.
