but oh well. A blog is supposed to be cool, right?
Cutest thing ever - Adam is talking in his sleep. Babbling, of course, he doesn't talk yet, but still. I guess you have to be there...
So my husband told me something the other day that got me thinking. I was saying how I feel like all I do is feed Adam, make food for Adam, and clean up after he eats. It's sort of true, what with my insistence on cooking at least most of his food on my own, and the fact that he insists on feeding himself, even though he really can't. It makes for one happy dog, at least... Anyway, my husband said, yeah, it's like this is your work. And he said, at least it's 7 to 7, it's not that bad - other people work harder. He meant other parents, but also there are people, like doctors, or start up founders (ahem) who work more than 12 hours a day, no?
Which got me thinking, like I said. I thought that many times I feel like he doesn't take my taking care of Adam as serious as his work. But he really does. Which got me thinking, that maybe when he says it's in my head, he really means it. Because he DOES take it as seriously as his work - this is my work now. Until September, my job is to take care of Adam. So I'm trying out a new thing. I'm embracing motherhood, in all its glory. The next day, I put on some sports pants and a tank top and went to the strollercise. Now, I like the strollercise, don't get me wrong, but some of the moms there are those exclusive moms. It can be a bit trying at times. But I did a little walk, and then sat there with the moms at the SB, and in the afternoon, sports outfit and all, I went with Adam in the stroller to check out my friend's new coffee place. See, here is where the gap begins to show. Anyway, I'm trying this out, like I said. Embracing motherhood. Stroller mom and all. If I stay sane until next week, I might even keep it up. The advantage of sports outfit: very comfy! It's like wearing pajamas outside! :)
