2.) YES, I actually stuffed my bra with washcloths after realizing too late that I was out of nursing pads. I even went to the grocery store wearing my new contraption...and didn't care!!
3.) Last week I showered THREE TIMES. I haven't done that since Young Women Girl's camp in 2001.
4.) I called Kyle to come home early from work one day just so he could give me a break from baby duty.
5.) I ate popcorn for dinner four nights this week.
6.) R-E-T-A-I-L T-H-E-R-A-P-Y! I bought three pairs of shoes in one shopping trip.(Don't worry hunny, I got a good deal...) Shoes are my new obsession until I get my before-baby body back.
7.) I stayed up until 4 a.m. one morning after Hailey went to sleep just to catch up on the blogs and facebook. It's the most 'social networking' I've had in awhile.
8.) I haven't been to Relief Society since Hailey was born. I miss it- I really do!!
I do have a few accomplishments. I've been able to keep our house semi-clean since I'm home all day. Plus it creeps me out to have a dirt everywhere with my baby in the house. I also successfully made several dinners for Kyle and have extra meals for the freezer.
My greatest achievement up to date?...I'm still breastfeeding after two infections...come on, you know its not easy!
Here's to the HOLIDAYS!!!

I eat popcorn every single day now! It is my favorite snack!
I think breast feeding is one of the hardest things I have ever done! I've almost made it six months! Do you have a pump? It helps a lot!
hahaha oh becca you poor sweet little mom. ; ) the popcorn for dinner thing still doesn't surprise me. come on, you lived off of that and hot pockets for the 3 years i lived with you. : ) i love your honest, hilarious mommy-posts. keep em coming.
I have to be honest...with makenzie I didn't experience any of this. I showered everyday, got 8-9 hrs of sleep a night, lost my baby weight fairly quickly (with WORK), never missed church meetings, made dinner everynight, and had enough social interaction because I was teaching as the breadwinner of the family......... then I had the twins. And it ALLLLLL Changed! Now I really know what moms are talking about.
You are doing AMAZING! it took me 6-8 months to lose the twins baby weight (I have to say I am always 'sad' when my nice little tummy fat roll dissapears, it is a nice support for the baby when nursing, haha). and I am still trying to get into a workout routine. most days I eat a cookie for dinner and I have become addicted to blogging because I have so many friends online now! YAY for us moms!!!!!
Becca....I so relate!!! You are doing a great job. Being a mom is tough work...Way to go on the breastfeeding!!!
Can't wait! :)
