I'm alive 3/29

It's been a crazy 2 weeks my friend.  First I was in the ER, followed by Avi getting an ear infection and allergy-induced asthma, followed by Mike getting the flu.  Now my mom and dad are in FL which leave me in charge of my grandmother's physical therapy runs, dr's appts, and my uncles appts since he just had his knee replaced.  BLAH!!!!! 

So, my eating habits haven't been the best.  On a side note though, I've at least been cooking dinner :)

Avi and I walked about 3 miles today

Water
about 42oz and still going

*Avi did much better today with eating*

Sooooo....

You would not believe this, but I have checked our blog EVERY DAY since the 5th and NOTHING was showing up from you.  So, I just assumed you were still volunteering or gardening or something and I didn't want you to feel bad so I stopped updating.  So, today, when I checked it there were like 6 or 7 posts all from you in a row.  BLAH!!  Sometimes the internet is so dumb.

BUT, I'm totally NOT going to update for today, I was sooooo bad.  I do have a question for you though.  Aviana is so weird.  She likes her "big girl" food.  She enjoys chewing and all that.  BUT she will NOT usually eat more than 10 bites of anything.  It's so strange.  Especially since, even though she's refusing food, she is screaming at me because she wants to nurse.  And then, she'll go DAYS without having any solid foods and she'll only nurse.  He doctor is totally fine with it, but it drive me nuts!! I've actually resorted to buying those organic yo-baby yogurts, even though they have sugar in them and I HATE that, but she eats them, and since they have both a veggie and a fruit I at least know she's getting something in her tummy.

She LOVES:
green beans, peas, carrots, cauliflower, squash, chicken, pork, beef, pasta, bread, cheerios, baby oatmeal, rice, apples, pears, peaches....kinda.   Yo-baby yogurt

1-bite:
Avocado (she must think they taste like soap too), peaches (normally), again I'm sure there are more

Funny moment:  The other night I gave her a whole-raw piece of cauliflower, just to see what she would do.  She loved it.  I don't think she actually got to eat any of it since it was all over her face, but it really was hilarious. 

I'm sure there are more, but those are the foods she'll actually open her mouth for without fussing tooooooo much.

Thoughts? 

Where, Oh Where...

Does carrying a sick baby around all day count? -day 2
I did swim with Aviana at her swimming class at the Y too.

Water
whoops...I did manage to chug some apple juice at some point today.


Truth  be told we are 100% out of everything in our house.  No veggies, no fruit, no milk, almost no bread or meats....it's pretty bad.  Maybe I'll give myself a vacation and leave Avi at home with Mike tomorrow and go to the store. 
Part 2 to all that is that since she's sick, Aviana has been refusing to nap.  I spend my entire day sitting on the floor trying to distract her from the snot I have to wipe off her face/suck out from her nose and the diapers I have to change due to her snot-induced diarrhea.   Being a mom is so fun.  :)

Weight check in
So I had my annual girly exam today and I about fell off the scale. 143! That's only 3 pounds away from my pre pregnancy weight! So, I guess my new weight goal is to get to my wedding weight. Ha! 120, I can dream right?

Goals for tomorrow:
1) clean bathrooms.
2) some workout DVD since the YMCA is out until avi is 100% better
3) visiting teaching
4) girls night out is at 8pm. I'm hoping I can find a sitter

Thank you for your kind words. It is amazing what food, sleep, a shower and a loving husband who takes a day off work can do for a person. I thank you for your unfailing friendship. It means so much to me.
