No more babies in my house....

For now. ;)

My baby Shan turned 1 on the 29th of May. OMG. He is ONE. X is not far off THREE... so, no more babies for me. Well, as I said, for now.

I have a strong desire to have two more. Not sure why, since I NEVER WANTED KIDS IN THE FIRST PLACE... but, I feel that we will have two more, and PROBABLY both boys. (I'd be more comfortable with boys anyway. LOL) But, T is of the frame of mind... well, let's say he's not too keen. I'm happy to wait and see.... and tbh, I wouldn't mind having my body back for awhile.

Speaking of which... I went for a 17 min walk/jog today. :D Granted, only about 10 min of that was jogging, most of it very slowly due to a very very weak core, but hey, I gotta start somewhere, eh? I felt good afterward, and actually did 7 min more than my goal. Let's see how I go tomoz.

Shan has started to truly wean I think. :'( A sign my baby is growing, but a scary thing for me. I shouldn't be surprised, as X self-weaned at 13 months... but still... it makes me a bit glum. He's different from X too, in that X NEEDED his night-time feed, and then after he was over the boob, he needed a bottle of milk (that kid STILL loves his milk, just like his mama). But Shan, well, not so much. Morning feed however? Whoa, get out of his way til he gets his boo-boo. And now, he's just not asking for it in the mornings or afternoons for a snack anymore... FAR more interested in stuff his big bro is eating. (Although, he did feed FOUR times one day last week... a sign to me he's teething again :P so maybe he'll keep feeding for awhile.)

Speaking of teeth... I think X's two front teeth have cavities. :( It took a long while to get him to let us brush his teeth (and Shan is even worse than X was), and although he's usually pretty good now... well, he's almost 3... and periodic brushing is prob not that great. Fingers crossed I'm just seeing stuff though.

And, have to post an update about the Bell's Palsy... I seem to be getting better. My neck had a relapse on Fri or Sat, so that sucked, but, except when I talk lots, my face seems about 90% better. Eating cereal is a chore, my shreddies went EVERYWHERE this morning... well, my milk anyway... but other than that, my smile is ALMOST there, my eye isn't bugging me as much, and my lips don't constantly feel itchy or sore. 5 more days of the "jungle juice" as T calls it (funny, they're tablets), and hopefully it will be resolved by then.

And to respond to Shazza-baz's comment... I've noticed you blogging like mad, and you're scrapping like crazy too... am VERY happy to know that I had a small part in developing a scrap-addict... LOL Bet H isn't my biggest fan, eh? ;) I'm gonna try and do some challenges with you Shaz... over the miles my dear! Go check out Shazza's work at http://shazzacraft.blogspot.com ... I'm off to do that right now. (Silly me, had a cuppa at about 2pm this arvo... now I can't sleep! I know better!)

Hugs,
