yesterday's blog was sure a bummer. sorry about that. as you could see, i wasn't feeling very well yesterday. much better now.
jaden has developed a new cry. its a high pitched squeal. i'm not a huge fan of this cry, as you could probably guess. the other day, jaden and i were up at 6am for his morning feeding. he always cries the hardest during this time because he usually hasn't eaten for 6 hours.
he was trying out his new cry this particular morning, and the living room windows were open. it wasn't long into his cry before i heard the neighborhood dogs start to bark. they continued to bark until jaden stopped. i guess i've given birth to a dog whistle.
i'm starting to gain weight. not good. it doesn't help that i keep grabbing the ice cream out of the freezer. i have to get back into working out. i miss melissa. she is my inspiring work out buddy. she has the discipline that i want. i know she didn't just wake up that way...she actually worked at it. i still think i can gain discipline by osmosis. it hasn't worked yet, but i'm sure i just have to give it more time.

hey suzanne...i miss you guys a lot. Too bad we didn't get to see you while you were here, but I hope you guys are doing good. I leave for school in less than 2 weeks! Pretty exciting. Anyways...you wanna know how I lost a lot of weight? Working out helps a little bit but that's not the real secret. I fell in love.
Don't know if that helps at all.

I know that comments aren't supposed to be so long...forgive me... So, I'm trying to read everyone's blogs since it seems like that is how you really get to know people these days... I've enjoyed reading about your life moments (I think that's what I like to call them). Most of all, it is sadly encouraging to read how you sometimes feel like crap, get wrapped up in feeling like crap, and then realize that you feel like crap because of your crappy motivation and lack of discipline. I say "sadly encouraging" because I feel like this ALL of the time, well, at least a few times a week anyway and it's nice to know I'm not the only one, but it makes me sad to think that you feel this way, too. Yeah, Melissa is inspiring...living with her definitely makes you want to change some lifestyle habits! I'm hoping that osmosis thing works for me, too, since we are actually sleeping under the same roof and all. The hardest thing for me, though, is remembering and trying to understand that God doesn't want me to feel this way. He wants me to be free and to be happy with myself. I've been thinking and reading a lot about this. I think I might have to seek some type of extra help to wrap my heart around it, though. We should talk...are you guys coming over for dinner on Thursday?? I've already planned what to have...and, no...it's not extremely healthy...you know me better than that :) -Jen
david...thanks for the help, but i already did the "fall in love diet." i now need the "lose weight even through he loves me unconditionally diet." i'm sorry too that we missed seeing you. i'm really excited about school for you. you're going to do awesome there.
jen...do you know how much i like you? i really needed to hear your comment. thanks. i can't wait to see you tomorrow.
Hey I miss you too but now I'm back!! Well, until Thursday, then I leave again. But then I'm back for good on Sunday and I am vowing not to travel again for a long long time (at least a few months).
You're blogs are always so funny! You should be a writer or something, and definately include in your book that you gave birth to a dog whistle. I laughed out loud.
