The Anniversary weekend

Had our wedding anniversary a few weeks ago. decided to take off for a couple of days with AA. left the babies with grandma. felt like a blush bride.. nice to have some good loving without any crying kids in the background ( and yes that will happen once in a while if you're married with kids). i think couples should have as much sex as possible before the kids come. infact have loads of sex. AA always has a way of reminding me of the BC days ( Before Children days). of how much sex we were having.lol. and that i never used to say i'm tired once sex is on the menu... plus how i used to jump him in the middle of the night... shame shame..enough said!

So long Too Long

Been such a while since i've updated. No excuses. Things have been really looking up here. Back at work, with an Engineering firm. My first week was a dud... i had forgotten EVERYTHING about engineering. have to start learning stuff all over again but im getting better with each day. Ask a lot of questions and read a whole lot. Babies are in daycare and i work not too far from home so i'm home by 5pm. still breast feeding ... not really easy. true 'work and pump' mama! Tara's 4 months now so i'm getting a little tired of the pump pump pump... but i know its all worth it. she hasn't had a sick day ever. im a serious advocate for b. feeding. my friend said i should try pumping at work... did it for just one day. it was hilarious. i put the pump ( which i think i should just call EQUIPMENT) in a brown bag to kind of disguise it.. but AA just kept asking what is that huge thing in your bag... guess the disguise didn't work.. so back to pumping at home. i've got 2 more months to go.
Have really slacked on the exercise front so im putting on weight again.. hmm not so cool. its just such a drag cos i have to be up by 6am to get everybody ready. not a joke at all! looking forward to the holidays, my office is closing for 16th dec till 9th of jan.. seriously looking forward to just lounging around the house... but if that will be.... hmmm.. time will tell.

Loosing weight

Last week i started working out. kind of ridiculous and this is where AA rocks. While i'm out for a run, he holds the fort ... perfectly! so i can run and free my mind. yes, run.... i have just about 20mins out of the house so i have to maximize it.. i don't think about 'form' or anything like that.. i just run. its not even about what i'm wearing. i have the most played out pair of running shoes.. infact i think Nike called and they want their shoes back! the sole's falling out, the colour's fading ... and i can have burp on my top .. but all that doesn't matter to me. with my ipod playing in my ears.. my feet hitting the road.. i'm free to be me. what does jogging mean to me? its me doing me. doing something for me. no diaper changes and loads of washing.. its just me doing something for me me me... now the challenge... keeping it up!! ha ha!

And we're back!!

On August 12, about 12.05pm we welcomed our beautiful daughter in to the world and into our lives. no matter how many times i do this (well just twice actually), giving birth is such an awesome experience.. its like with my legs still up in the stirrups, the whole of heaven bursts into this glorious song and colours and everything is just alright with the world!. so i took a hiatus... well much more than a hiatus.. a pretty long break but please bear with me.. just when i was preparing to get my groove back.. i discover ... wow! im preggies again! feels like ive been preggie for 2 years ... just on and on and on... i remember when i told AA that i think im preggie he really didnt believe me! so we have a rambuntious boy and an absolute delicious baby girl. and i think im through. so just barely 4days after im off to a job interview, i had taken the test a few months ago and they asked me to come in for a chat.. seems absolutely crazy, had to practically sneak out of the house,my angel was still sleeping, dashed to the company and had the chat. had to tell them that i just had a baby and didnt think i could start till october/november. finding a job is somewhere on the top of my grovving to do list, so here's the question, as a mum or even as a woman, do you ever feel the need to proove yourself even more?
