so it’s been a while since I posted on the blog. It’s only been about 5 months since the twins were born, but it feels like AGES! It’s also been pretty tough for me to get back to being me…whatever that was. For a year I was a preggo monster, and when I finally came out of the haze of hormones, post-partum depression and some serious post-delivery complications, it was May 2007 already! Sheesh!
Some quick updates on life now…some of these stories may appear as their own blogs one day….
*Zoey and Amaya are ~13 and ~11 lbs., respectively. Both babies are doing well and getting cuter on a daily basis
*The babies are champion breastfeeders, and Amaya will even take formula and rice cereal in a bottle! All my worries were for naught. However, little miss Zoey refuses bottles, period. She allowed her aunty Christie to feed her rice cereal w/a spoon, but that too was a disaster. After their six month immunizations, they will begin solids, but I tell you what, Zoey loves her breastmilk…..
*I am officially a SAHM (stay at home mom) for now. We’ll see how long I can swing it
*I FINALLY have my appetite back…and now I’m addicted to Chocolate covered PoppyCock (aka PoppyCrack…please, no one buy me any as a present….)
*I’m in week two of a six week yoga program that will hopefully help give me some clarity and focus as I struggle to re-find myself.
Being preggers and now a mom was/is such an absorbing experience, it’s easy to lose sight of my own identity as Linda. So this yoga course is really helping my spirit.
But in the meantime, I’m loving life as the momma to two amazing little babes, and partner to my best friend in the whole world.
