Will Power be Damned! and other random crap...

Magic Peanut Butter Middles. I found the recipe online the other day while looking for a peanut butter cookie recipe. I looked at it and thought, that actually doesn't look to hard. So today I decided to try and make them. This is a photograph of my final project. broken in half so you can see the magic! Oh my gosh they are yummy! its like reese peanut butter inside, with a chocolate cookie outside that isn't too terribly sweet. We pretty much ate the whole batch, 3 cookie sheets full, in one night. Lack of self control much?

So what is going on with me... Well, I got on my Wii fit for the first time since before I got pregnant, I weigh 16lbs less than I did then. So I've been doing my Wii Fit plus exercises daily. Working on doing more stuff with Chance, he loves crafts and art and stuff, so we've made valentine cards, we're going to do family tye dye, we MADE bouncy balls, and i've got a couple of "glitter picture" kits for us to do. Today we spent 2.5 hours at the mall just sitting on one of those couches watching Chance play on the playground there. Can't wait for it to be warm and dry outside so we can walk to the regular playground for him to play. It'll be good for me to get some more exercise.

Jonathan is getting big, he was 8lbs 5oz at his 2 week weigh in, the nurse was impressed, they only expect babies to be back up to birth weight by then. not 6oz over it! Especially when they are breastfed only. He's been eating like crazy this week, growth spurt, I understand why some women give up and supplement, It's like he's constantly stuck to my boob!

Speaking of feeding, I've been getting frustrated lately. I feel like nothing is getting done around the house, Stuff IS getting done, just not very much very fast, and its like we manage to mess it up much faster than we can get it clean. I want to go clean up, but I am always feeding baby, and then I feel like I'm making Toby do all the work, which is frustrating, But then when baby is sleeping and I do get a chance to clean, and Toby is doing his own thing, playing video games or whatever, I get annoyed that he isn't doing anything to help me. It's silly I know, I know he does a lot, more than I do i'm sure of it! I should respect that (and I DO!) but I still can't help but be annoyed when I use what little baby free time I have to do chores, and he uses it playing video games.  It's definately a mental thing.

My goal for tomorrow is to express some milk, so Toby can feed the baby. at night. while I sleep. hehe! Just kidding, but it will be nice to have Toby feed him once in a while, maybe I won't feel so frustrated and annoyed all the time if I get a little bit more time with my boobs put away. I'm also going to do some tidying around the house. Toby and Chance are going to make Icing after Chance gets home from school. Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry flavored! YUM!In the evening once Chance is asleep and baby is napping, I might try making some soap. I'm really excited to start doing that, but I just haven't had a chance yet. I have everything i need now, So hopefully tomorrow! But the boys need to be asleep because Chance will want to help me, and I don't think i'm ready for that just yet. Other than that It'll be a day of feeding the baby and watching TV mostly. Although I just remembered i need to put plastic wrap on my V-day poster... I'll do that saturday I think. Oh! All of my Valentines stuff is done and ready to go except the 3 things I need from the grocery store that I can't get till Saturday. I'm so excited! We are going to do it Sunday, because Chance will be home Monday and that would make the evening I have planned essentially impossible to pull off! But I have his gift ready for when he coems home. He's going to love it. A Spongebob heart box of gummy candy, a puppy stuffy toy, he loves puppies! and a puzzle, he loves puzzles too!

Well, I better go, Baby is bound to wake up soon to eat. Have a great week!
