Randomness

Bit o' randomness 1: Today I commence my diet. I gained over 50 pounds while pregnant and lost 27 immediately in the first week and a half. Now I have 25 to go. Hopefully it will not be hard to lose. I do not like self-deprivation, but I really, really want to fit in my old clothes again, so a girl has to to do what a girl has to do. I still cannot do sit-ups for another 3 weeks according to my doctor, so the gut will be here a while longer.

Bit o' randomness 2: Today is the first day that Max and I are alone together all day. It's actually quite nice and easier than I expected. This morning he was awake from about 7-10:30 am. We had some play time before Brandon went to work (which was good for Brandon just in case Max doesn't have alert time when Brandon gets off work). After Brandon left, Max and I chilled. We read a book and Max wanted to be held. Very peaceful morning.

Bit o' randomness 3: Maybe I'm crazy, but it seems like Max's hair is getting a little lighter. I noticed it this morning, especially at the top of his head. It will be interesting to see what his hair color eventually is.

Bit o' randomness 4: Max is really starting to like people touching and kissing his belly. I was playing with him yesterday during his alert time, and I started kissing his belly. I swear the kid smiled.
