Coffee Time

In our house coffee is not so much a favorite past time, but an important part of a complete breakfast. Most people don’t have more than one coffee maker, but like many things in our life MK and I are unable to share coffee makers. Two Computers, Two cars, Two toothbrushes(whew), Two coffee makers. This one is practical given that I’m drinking decaf for Avery’s sake. I had caffinated coffee yesterday because I couldn’t breastfeed Aves. It was like being ALIVE! I can see how someone could quit smoking and start again. I didn’t drink coffee almost at all since last September. Several of those months were due to copious amounts of pukage and an extreme dislike for food at all.  I’m not saying I’m an addict, but the first step is denial right?

Day 2 of fighting Thrush with all our superpowers combined. 24 hours of letting my body recover and 32 ounces of pumped milk down the drain *tear* and we are back on track. Avery isn’t nursing as well as before, but clearly her mouth still hurts. We’ll get there. I have more determination than I had before. I’m even going to try to be one of those Mom’s who can nurse in a sling. Maybe not grocery shopping, but capable for an emergency long lineup at Save-on.

I’ve been thinking alot about healthy eating again. It’s been really hard to eat much of anything healthy for the last little while. My life is starting to calm down and I’m looking forward to eating real food again. So my goal is to consume the rest of the junk in our house and not bring any other junk home. I think it will be pretty hard since my sister started working at DQ again and cheap blizzards make me happy.  I want to get going back to my GYM whenever I feel I  am up to spin class again. I’m trying to get out walking whenever I can, but this weeks rain put us behind on that one.

Apparently, I’m a bit of a bad influence when it comes to junk food(so I’ve been told). So from now on, I’m going to try and be the good influence.  The influence that doesn’t feel guilty giving her child 2 m&m’s, but eats the whole BIG bag herself. The influence that doesn’t put flax seed on her daughters cereal while eating cinnamon toast crunch or pizza for breakfast. The influence that doesn’t like to buy organic fresh veggies, but forgets to cook them till they are yucky.

I know dieting while nursing is a bad idea, but having a healthy diet while nursing is a GOOD idea. So that’s the new plan. I think the truck that drove through the front door of Husky was a sign to avoid going there for screamers. Maybe if they had have just stole the slushie machines this wouldn’t have been a problem!

So I think I’ll go have some All-bran buds on Yogurt and a nectarine for breakfast. Breakfast that has already passed by…haha
