Weekend Updates

There is nothing like a 3 day weekend with time for chores, fun, family, and friends to regroup. Nursing has come to a screeching halt. I have not pumped in a day or two and it looks like I will be wiping that machine down and passing it along. I will NEVER miss that machine as the closer I got to the end of using it, the more it hurt to use it. I have nursed symbolically for the past few mornings but a warm bottle of cow's milk seems to be more efficient. So, ladies and gentleman, it looks like after almost 3 entire (not consecutive) years of nursing and 27 months (again in three installments) of pregnancy, well, after 63 months, it might be time to make my body just for me. And, what a body it is! I mean that both sincerely and sarcastically. It has been very useful so far but man, does it look beat up. Surgeries, stretch marks, and weight gain/loss have definitely taken their toll. Seems like babies are asleep, this might be too good to be true as I am alone (MoJo at movies with G and F). Yesterday they shattered their 30 min nap at home limit with a ... 1 hour 40 min nap (the Ms) and 2 hours and 50 min (the Mr). I had to go in to make sure they were alive. Could I be about to get a real certified 100% child free moment? We shall soon see...
