baby losing weight weaning | Traditions Tree Decorating 2014

baby losing weight weaning



Saturday afternoon and evening were spent decorating our Christmas trees. First came our real tree with the Gingerbread Cookie Ornaments and white sparkle lights. Jack was pumped about this experience. Though he was disappointed that we didnt have a star for the top (we do now).


I turned on the Christmas music and we added our cookie ornaments to the tree. We strategically moved Jack around the tree since he was inclined to hang everything in clumps together.


Im not sure what he liked more: hanging the ornaments or eating the cookies (Ill get to that later).


After our tree was decorated, we took a break before heading out to the local seafood market to grab dinner. A sampler platter for me and Daniel and salmon for Jack hit the spot.


After we had our fill of seafood, we headed home to decorate tree #2.


Our little fake tree was purchased in 2002 when we were first married. The tree skirt was actually used in our wedding. I think the tree cost us $10 at Big Lots and it has great sentimental value for us. 


For a brief moment last week, we couldnt find the tree and we were both a little sad to think that it might have gotten lost in our last move. Thankfully Daniel found it.


The ornaments on this tree are really special to us.


They include old ornaments from our childhoods, gifted ornaments from our wedding, and ornaments we have collected on every trip we have taken over the last 12 years. 


They also include ornaments that belong to Jack. A whole smorgasbord of memories can be found on our little fake tree.


One other tradition we typically do when we decorate our tree is to drink my special decadent hot chocolate, while watching a Christmas movie. This year we let Jack watch a Curious George: A Very Monkey Christmas and while drinking the special hot chocolate (for him I blended it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and skipped the kahlua!).


Now back to the cookies... while I finished making the hot chocolate that Daniel and I were going to drink, Jack came up to me and said that his mouth was yucky. He had dark brown stuff in his teeth that wouldnt wipe off and I couldnt figure out what was in his mouth.


After consulting with Daniel, we realized he had asked Daniel to eat a cookie and Daniel said yes. Unfortunately the "cookie" in question was a cinnamon applesauce cookie ornament that was 3 years old...


I hurried Jack upstairs to the bathroom to brush the remnants out of his teeth and off his tongue. He seemed fine so I had him drink a bunch of water. Thankfully he didnt have an adverse reaction to eating the ornament.


While I took care of brushing Jacks teeth out, the rest of the hot chocolate for me and Daniel burned. So much for enjoying it with our tree decorating! The whole decorating mood was killed a bit after that, but Jack still enjoyed hanging all of the ornaments.


Sometimes things go how you want them to, sometimes they dont. Such is life. But we will probably always remember how Jack ate a cookie that wasnt a cookie!

weight loss during pregnancy mayo clinic | Every Last One

weight loss during pregnancy mayo clinic


I could not put down Anna Quindlens latest book, Every Last One. I was completely captivated. It took me a day to read it, starting with snatches of pages early in the morning before anyone was awake. I read on our car ride out to a friends engagement party. En route back I got to the climax and wanted to scream but my husband, children and dad, my fellow passengers, would not have taken my yelling well. I finished by forcing my eyes awake until after midnight. This morning I can still feel the book in me.

I found the most evocative passage on page 200 (the hardcover US edition): "It was not so much I wanted to die; it was just that I could not bear the incessant feeling of being alive." The line was the knockout punch that brought it all home for me.

There was an evening Eric came home from work to find me in the fetal position in our bedroom, gasping for air as I could not control my tears. The pain was ravaging the wound still so new. My understanding that people just didnt get it growing until I felt it would swallow me up. I told Eric I didnt want to die but the idea of living without the baby, for I did not know his name right then, was too much for me - I couldnt do it. I think it was one of the few times in our marriage Eric was actually afraid.

The next line in the book: "And then it occurred to me that I was already dead, that what was left behind was a carapace, like the shells of cicadas we found a few summers ago." This is what Eric knew way before me, that I was gone, the woman he had just wooed and wed and created life with was not there anymore and I know he wondered "where did my wife go?" and that was just the beginning.

yoga after pregnancy weight loss | Nothingness

yoga after pregnancy weight loss


March 7, 2000 was the day of nothingness.  There really is no other word to describe the feeling.  It would be my second full day in the hospital.  It was a day of waiting.  People were celebrating Mardi Gras.  Eric never left my side. 

From what I can recall, I had visitors: my mom and dad, my grandma and my friend Terry.  The only image that erases the fraught look Terry had visiting me that day is the look on her face when she held Alison for the first time seventeen months later.

My grandmother sat quietly in the chair near my window.  She was resigned to my fate.  I probably was too.  There were so many mixed emotions.  While I prayed for a miracle, I also prayed for this trauma to be over.  I could not foresee what tumult the next day would bring for me, Eric and our marriage.

This day of nothingness also brought a Rabbi, upon my request, to my side.  I wish today I could recall his words and Im sure somewhere else Ive written about them.  They will probably come back to me when I least expect them to.

Some days are harder than others.

bikram yoga post pregnancy weight loss | Movies

bikram yoga post pregnancy weight loss


There ought to be a warning on all movices or TV programs where a baby dies or a woman miscarries or delivers a stillborn. Eric and I watched the movie "Perfect Family" with Kathleen Turner and her daughter is pregnant and loses the baby midway through.

And lets not mention every other drama on TV - its enough.

baby losing weight while breastfeeding | Graduation

baby losing weight while breastfeeding



As of Saturday morning, all of our siblings are now officially graduated from college with bachelor degrees.


Emily, the youngest of all of the siblings, finished up her Business degree, Suma Cum Laude. 


And she did it while working a full time job during the day and taking all of her classes at night.


We are so proud of her accomplishment and the fact that she has worked so hard to put herself through school in a non traditional way.


After watching graduation (Jack sat through the entire thing, as he did for Emilys Associates degree ceremony two years ago), we went to celebrate at Carrabbas. 


This should be the last of the graduations we attend for awhile!


Congratulations Emily!

weight loss during pregnancy concerns | The Empire State Building

weight loss during pregnancy concerns


It almost escaped me that today is that day or it used to be what I considered that day. July 28, 2000 is the day I was supposed to give birth to my first beautiful child. But it was not to be how I planned.

I didnt even realize the date until I was in the checkout line at King Kullen this morning. And it would have escaped my psyche altogether if the cashier hadnt handed me back a coupon with an expiration date of yesterday, July 27, 2010. Thats when I realized today was that day. Or not.

For years this date held as much significance to me as any other, and those who know me know I keep a mental calendar and can usually recall dates to various events in life, mine and theirs.

July 28 used to stand out in my mind like the Empire State Building, towering over so many of the other dates. But now, ten years later, its supplanted by far more wonderful dates: Alisons and Adams birthdates are now the Empire State Buildings in my mental calendar. My joy at having them eclipses this date. I dont feel the grief of this day so strongly any more. I actually feel at peace, for today.

weight loss after pregnancy youtube | March 4 2000 My last best day

weight loss after pregnancy youtube


Fourteen years ago was my last, best day.  I dont mean I havent had best days since, I certainly have.  The live births of my two children Alison and Adam were the miracles that brought me back to life.

But fourteen years ago today, Eric and I went to lunch to celebrate my grandmothers birthday. We went to Patricks Pub on Northern Boulevard in Little Neck, NY.  I had quiche.  I was very cranky that day.  Could something deep down in my psyche known how my life would begin to unravel the very next day?

Fourteen years ago today was the last day I would have ever not worry incessantly about what could happen in life.  And while the worry doesnt stop me from living my life, it is always present right below the surface of my mind.
