It is hot again and still feels a lot like summer. This is great! I had felt like my summer had come and gone and I had not been able to take advantage of the warm nice weather. This week, is my chance to make it all up and pack in as much summer fun as I can!
All our kids have been born in the summer. Each time I have a baby, I get the baby blues, feel overwhelmed, am incredibly sensitive, and basically have a pretty difficult time adjusting to life after baby! Hadley was no exception to this, even though I knew it was coming and I totally anticipated it and tried to ready myself for the rush of emotions. Our summer was rough, and as much as I tried to pack in fun outings and act like life was great, I was a mess inside. I am married to the most awesome man ever and I do have the best family and friends who totally recognize this of me and were incredible helpers to me and my kids this summer! I so appreciate it!! I don't know why it happens, I always wished I could be one of those "other moms" who just breezes through the post partum period with grace and ease, but I am so not! And now, as my hair is beginning to fall out and my hormones are balancing out again-I feel so much more confident in my ability to be a super mom to my 3 kids and I love that feeling!
This week is HOT, our pool is still open, and we are going to take advantage of it! It's like a redo of this summer in the beginning of fall! I even climbed back into my old bikini! It felt great to have that old friend on again!!
