Baby Wait
Yes, I mean baby wait and I do equate it to baby weight. Most new mom's have baby weight to lose...I have my baby wait to lose. Get it? I seriously didn't realize how chunkified I've gotten over the last few years. Until the crazy amounts of pictures that have been taken this past month shoved it in my face and there was no more denying it. I'm going to blame it on the stress of infertility drugs and just stress of waiting. I refuse to blame it on the love affair I have with food. Greasy food at that. So, now that my baby wait is over....it's time to lose the weight. The "muffin top" I've been sporting, isn't so cute. The five chins I now have isn't so sexy. I don't know what my plan is for the big lose, but it needs to be done. Crap.
On another note....I have to admit that when I'm out in public with Grady I do love the old ladies who tell me I look GREAT for JUST having a baby. I just smile politely and say "thanks"! A few weeks ago we were at Target...some lady asks me how old Grady is and I tell her. She then goes on to ask me how my delivery was and I laugh and say "it was soo easy!" She looked at me like I was from Mars and then said "wow, you're so lucky." I walked away laughing thinking I shouldn't let her think I'm superwoman, but its none of her business that I didn't actually deliver him. What she doesn't know, won't hurt. It's none of her beeswax anyway.
Just in case anyone forgot...Grady is one month old today (well, I guess technically it was yesterday the 5th, but since its 12:45am on the 6th, I shouldn't confuse anyone)..it has felt like we've always had him. Good thing we still like him.
And, I swear, his blog is coming soon....so stay tuned...you won't want to miss it!!
**About the pic...I know I look like a pile of crap-ola, but it was taken in the morning and I obviously hadn't gotten out of bed yet...Grady had the joy of smelling my morning death breath. Lucky kid!! He also enjoys staring at my sexy hot pj's....loves the colors!!

i love you smalls. someday i will see you.
You can work the "wow you look so great for just having a baby for about four months." That's when I noticed people stopped commenting. Jerks. They should keep it up until the kid is a year at least.
You got those pjs! You and Grady can be matchy matchy. And I'm coming to see Grady. I mean you. Look at those cheeks! His. Not yours. And I only count one chin.
Finally an update! You didn't say anything about work AND I was hoping to see more pixs! Anyway, you always look great so chill out :)
Holly, you look great...and sooo happy! Don't be so hard on yourself! Grady is just so stinkin' cute...I want to eat him all up!!! :)
Grady's cheeks are so fat now!!! And those pj's...I've seen that one too much. Those skulls and your owls. Maybe you should mix it up and bust out your pineapple ones again.
You look a whole lot better than crap-ola!! trust me. I was with another friend who recently adopted their 1st baby girl and she says people tell her how great she looks too! Funny-- better to keep it on a need to know basis. I hope you are doing alright! My little brother was supposed to have a girl and a boy popped out of his wife this morning so I sent them all Vaughn's baby clothes today.
He is an adorable little baby! I love those cute cheeks and the way he looks so memorized. You can say its the pj's but it's really you. He loves his Mom and he knows his Mom loves him!
As for the comments about "Wow you look so great for just having a baby" Well personally those comments used to tick me off. I used to think o.k. so what your saying is, is that if I hadn't just had this baby I wouldn't look so great. Poop on you people! You look great wheher you had that adorable baby or not! I think you look wonderful!
