by Connor Claire turns three months old in a few days, as well as seriously, that time has flown by quicker than three snaps in a Z formation. I don’t understand exactly how this fast-forward button got pushed, however somewhere, somehow, it did, as well as now it’s practically June. YOWZA!
Dus. If you’re a routine right here in the MBB fam, you’re most likely wondering where the regular Saturday giveaway is, seeing as exactly how I’ve been doing it every Saturday for years.

Anywho, if you’re still here…hi! Hellooooooo again! *gives you a huge hug* I’m pleased to see you. What have you been as much as lately?
Mij? It’s been all about routines. Diaper changes, feedings, sterilizing bottles, feedings, washing burp cloths as well as blankets, feedings, bath time, feedings, play time, feedings, stomach time…and did I state feedings?
But now that Connor much more or less sleeps with the night, life has been less chaotic.
Of course, I’m shaking my head as I type this, since everybody I understand who has youngsters states that when you get settled into a routine, something will come along to shake whatever up — like the begin of teething, a modification in feeding or sleeping habits, a runny nose from a chilly — something.
So I assumption it’s just a matter of time before the sh*t hits the fan again! — however at least for now I’m trying to get back into my metaphorical groove.
One of the things I’m trying to get back into the practice of doing on a regular basis is running, as well as yesterday I went for my very first run in a truly long time. as well as it was truly freakin’ hard.
I believe the last time I went for a run was, gosh…last July. Or was it August? It was soon after I discovered out that Connor had taken up short-term residency in my tum.
Anyway, it’s been a loooong time.
But yesterday I jogged three sluggish miles. It took me almost 50 minutes, provide or take.
Yup, that’s slow, as well as even though a geriatric tortoise might have outrun me, I did it! as well as it felt good. I’m starting to feel like my body belongs to me again.
The birth in March took a great deal out of me, both physically as well as psychologically (I had an emergency C section in the middle of the night after about 40 hours of labor). For a while there (and, truthfully, still now), I couldn’t even believe about it without falling apart.
But now that I’m able to do what had been one of my preferred things to do before I got expecting — running — I’m starting to feel much more typical again.
Another thing that feels good: using nail polish. exactly how silly does that sound?
But it feels excellent to look down at my paws as well as see the suggestions painted, even if the application was a bit slapdash.
One of the “me” things that promptly fell by the wayside after having Connor was painting my nails, however I’ve started doing it again, as well as lately I’ve been all about this pale creamy yellow from Sally Hansen’s miracle Gel line called Lemon heaven ($7.59 at Target). It’s a ray of sunshine in a bottle!
If you’re a new mom, a hectic bee or just never seem to have sufficient time to paint your claws, Lemon heaven is the schtuff! It dries in less than 15 minutes as well as lasts me at least seven days before it starts looking all funkytown as well as I have to renovate it.

Well, it was good to hang out with you. It’s Memorial Day weekend right here in the U.S., which, among other things, makes this the unofficial begin of summer. I have a feeling this will be one of your finest summers yet!
