SOOOOOOOO, usually I am the strong type that remains calm even if I am not totally secure with a situation... I call it faking confidence. This last two weeks, I have been the biggest faker ever! :) Being the sole entertainment for a 6 month old has been the biggest challenge of motherhood so far. The whole "recontructing" myself took a HUGE backseat in that I was "on" 24/7. In a weird way I loved it... I learned a TON and enjoyed every giggle that came out of this little man's body. I did not however enjoy the new poops that have come along from him eating solid food ... HOLY S#&T to say the LEAST. But I have survived by talking to myself, meeting up with friends here and there that have babies Davis' age, and spending my nights reading a really great book (oh- and moose tracks ice cream) :) Luckily, I have also been walking like a maniac so that ice cream has not reared it's ugly head in form of serious new cellulite. I got through the 6 month-old shots at the doc visit- still breaks my heart. I got through baby sleep boot camp successfully as well. All in all, I did not "lose it" at all, but it was HARD. I have a WHOOOOOLE new respect for single parents and my friends on the Tour who's husbands travel a lot more than Kev right now. I am more prepared now in the event Kev gets his dream back and starts playing full time again.
I am going to stretch my arm hard and reach around and pat myself on the back and as for my horn... TOOT TOOT!!!! Yipppeeee! I made it!
