Wow been almost 2 months!

It's been almost two months since I posted. I was never very good at keeping a diary when I was younger. Anyway, now I am back, but I am not going to promise that I won't disappear again!

Updates on Jacoby! He is started crawling on August 24th and then pulling himself to stand on August 27th! He has two teeth that sprouted up, and he is now eating baby meats. He said mama for the first time (though he doesn't know what it means yet), and he is starting to cruise the furniture.

Ever since he started crawling he hasn't stopped. He wears himself out everyday. Here is a picture of him two days ago, jumping himself to sleep:

And it is pure frustration trying to baby proof a house. I have the living room and the bedroom (connected to the living room), sectioned off with his playpen so that he has a safe place to wonder around, but he still manages to find things he is not supposed to have.

As for the weight loss journey, I have pretty much given up for now. I want another baby, and I think there's no point to working my butt off to lose extra weight (I'm already at my pre-preg weight), when I know I'm just going to gain it back with the second baby. So I'm just trying to make healthy choices for now.

I still haven't started my period. I'm usually right on time, and today is the day I'm supposed to start, so we shall see. I really hope I don't get my period, even though we will probably catch hell from everybody for getting pregnant so early after Jacoby. I've tried to shake the desire to have another, but the more I try not to think about it, the more I think about it.

Updates on other things: Shaun finished his Bachelors in Business Management, and already has his Associates in Accounting. I convinced him to let me be a stay at home mom since he hates to clean, and Jacoby seems to really benefit from it. As long as I can babysit part time, he is okay with it. I met a really great family recently, and I start babysitting for them next week, so I think I finally met my match.
