It's been a while...

Amazing how I don't have much time to blog these days, and not much to blog about. The only thing new with kid #2 is colic, which kid #1 didn't have much trouble with. That definitely takes up a lot of my day, trying to figure out ways to get kid #2 to stop crying. It's frustrating, to say the least. Now that I'm 8 weeks out from my c section, I am ready (and desperate) to start losing weight. Since I'm not breastfeeding this time around, I'm not getting any weight loss from it. I've lost not quite 20 lbs from my heaviest pregnancy weight, and I'm about 10 lbs below my heaviest non-pregnancy weight. I've decided to go for a pretty easy (so I say) goal: to lose 20 lbs by the end of the school year (May 31). It's essentially 2 lbs each month for 10 months. It should be easily accomplished, but I notoriously suck at weight loss, exercise, and sensible eating. I'm hoping that bribing myself with $20 per lb lost might help. Cross your fingers
