To the Fathers...

I think it is only appropriate to dedicate this post to the fathers in my life.
To my Grandfather. He can pull the year my great aunt got a new cadillac or my mom was in the hospital out of nowhere. He has a memory better than all of us youngin's. He is the rock of the family and I am scared to see what would happen after he is gone.
To my Father. He has had one of the saddest lives I have ever heard about, yet you never would hear it from him. How he could learn to be an amazing father after his own father died when he was 1 and his step father beat him is beyond me. I thank him for it.
To my Husband. Happy First Father's Day. He was the best birth coach I could ask for and supported me in my natural birth. He supports me and makes me a better person. More than that, he is a better Dad than I would've hoped for. He is always up for cuddle time when he gets home so Momma can get stuff done around the house. He changes diapers, gets her from the crib in the middle of the night, rocks her as she screams, anything for his little girl.

We all have men in our lives, some better than others. These are three that I amt thankful to have in my life.

It's been too long..

And here is the gist of my life..
*My baby is growing to fast
*Sex is not appealing
*The house is getting more and more expensive
*I am out of shape

That is it in a nutshell. On a positive note, I love watching Kate grow, sex seems more likely everyday, although it has not happened, we are finding ways to make our house more affordable, and I am running 4 miles in the Steamboat classic on Saturday.

I just joined twitter, so if you are on Twitter leave me your name! My name is karafitzjarrald. I am not sure how much I will use it, only time will tell.

Kate now rolls over from tummy to back. She smiles all the time and even laughs. It is so much fun to play with her now.

I am still waiting to be in the mood for sex. My boobs are so sore it is ridiculous. They are so to the touch and the nipples are red. Ouch! I know that breastfeeding is so worth it for both me and Kate, but I will be glad when I am done.

I can't decide when I want to have kids again, and I am even debating whether I should go back on the pill or not...aghh! I haven't picked up my prescription yet. It is a hard question with a miscarriage under our belt. It seems the more you plan, the more things go haywire. I just pray for healthy pregnancies when we do get pregnant again.

Seriously?!?!?

I mean, really, I could go on all day. But Seriously!??!?

3 years later...

Three years ago I married, quite literally, my best friend. Dan completes me. The day was perfect and in the end I got my husband so I couldn't complain.

Today he is a better father and husband than I could ever imagined. How could I be so blessed with such a wonderful man.
