Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 07 August 2014

It's official. People love to feed pregnant women. I came into the office today to find watermelon on my desk. Yummy! I guess my obsession with watermelon finally got annoying to someone in the office because it magically appeared. Then I get invited to lunch by my temp. Who fed me italian food and gave me my first baby gift. Adorable fox onsies. I wasn't really expecting anything with my 3rd other than eye rolls and mutterings of "really?? another one??" so I was shocked and over emotional. lol Then the restaurant brought out my dish.. and it was heaping high. As in could feed an army of 10 amount. Apparently they thought I needed more than the average person.

So .. um.. no gym. But watermelon and lasagna.. and some noodles.. and a meatball. But I did say no to the whole dessert thing. Even though they kept trying to put it in the to go box too. So no gym but eating wasn't uncontrollable either. Plus I started getting random contractions last night milking cows so maybe it was time for a rest day. Yes milking cows. I think the squats help hurry things up so I will continue to milk cows until I can't get back up. With little man.. that was the day before he came. lol With this one.. eh.. maybe tonight. Chasing little man in between cows is exhausting. Especially when he's wearing his superman shirt and he thinks he's superman.. then he comes running down the barn floor full speed expecting you to catch him and do one of those dirty dancing moves with the kid above your head in full flying pose. Which is ok. Unless someone else is in the barn. At this point my shirt doesn't cover my entire belly and well.. no one needs to see that train wreck except small children and the man that caused it. lol He better start thinking stretch marks are sexy or he's dead meat.

In other exciting news.. I've been a train wreck this week. Hubby went in for his regular exam and they found an irregular heartbeat.. on top of the diabetes they found last year. Today the cardiologist cleared him. He still has one more test but everything is ok. He has 3 of the risk factors they look for so he will have regular monitoring but ok. Great even. This way I will have regular confirmation that my husband is doing ok. His dad died at 53. We're about to have another baby. I don't care if he has to go for daily tests. At least now I can stop hyperventilating and balling my eyes out every time little man asks where he is. Instead I'll just keep hiding veggies in his food and telling little man to attack him so he gets his exercise.. even if it is superman poses in the barn with a 35 lb squirmy weight.

You need a day at the spa, girl....just some relaxing, not thinking about anything time...I truly hope your hubby gets fully cleared and that you have less stress!!!!! Maybe you need some cheese curds??

Wow, where does the time go? I didn't realize you were that close. I hope somebody is around if you can't get back up. Geez! I'll pray DH stays well. In the meantime, don't sweat so much (no pun intended) about the gym; sounds like you're getting plenty of exercise, and too much stress. Breathe! LOL!

Superman poses in the barn - love it. You sure do keep your hands full, don't you? Would you know how to live any other way or would you feel bored into a coma?

I love reading your journals...I think I actually look forward to them. I hope it's ok to laugh out loud at some of your remarks. You have such a wonderful perspective among the chaos that comes with raising a family, etc. Prayers that things improve for your DH. Hang in there momma.

Awww. Thank you for that superman visual! Love kids! Prayers for you and your hubby. Good that you can track him medically for more peace of mind.

Is your husband overweight and that's why he's diabetic, has high blood pressure that is causing him heart arrhythmia? With all that he doesn't want to go on a diet and exercise? I'm just guessing, maybe I'm very wrong. If it's that I see here on fat secret all the time that for a lot of people almost all their health problems, like described, go away with just living healthy.

You are so funny! Love your journals! Little man sounds like a (very loveable) handful! Sorry to hear about hubby's health problems - but better to catch it early than let it go too long...

I hate to say this, but it sounds like your train wreck of a day was better than my whole day altogether. I can't wait for my little one to come home from Nana's so we can play. Mine however thinks she is Elsa from Frozen instead of Superman.

Love the little superman. Kids make great exercise weights. I used mine when they were little, they loved exercise time with mom. Assume you are machine milking not by hand, but you could easily get stuck between cows who could get restless with the break in routine.

I only love feeding children more than pregnant women, but not by much. I swear, when I see a baby eating, it brings me so much joy! I don't know why...
