The grass is always greener on the other side...


Lately I have been walking around like this, pants falling to my ankles every time I take a step! Wearing a belt is no solution either, putting one on creates a HUGE MANLY BULGE, and I know you know what I mean...not pretty! My whole life I have struggled with weight, if I would have known that all I needed was a toddler I would have done this whole "mom" thing along time ago. Last night after Kai went to bed I decided to dig THEM out, my skinny jeans.... you know the pair of jeans that you keep, they don't fit you but you keep them because they are where you want to be size wise... you know, those skinny jeans! Well as I was saying, last night I dug them out just to see. I can't tell you how long I have had these things and how many times I would try them on only to have them stop at the knee. Much to my surprise they slipped on easily, I was even able to button them all the way up! What I found to be an even bigger surprise was the pure UNsatisfaction that I felt. There I was standing in my SkInNy JeAnS and all I wanted was a BIG, fat belly with a baby inside....and I still do. Who knows, maybe if I wear my skinny jeans more I just might get that baby...Elmer did say I LOokeD GoOd!

Woo hoo! Congrats on fitting into your skinny jeans. I hope you do have another baby soon--cuz your first one is so cute of course! But then, I'm already starting to rethink this big fat belly thing for myself (okay, so not really--but I can't wait to feel good again :)

Yay for fitting into your skinny jeans! That's super exciting! It's amazing how active you become once you have a child to chase after! Having kids really is a great weight loss program.

Interesting how we think we want something and then it doesn't satisfy us. I'll bet you look great. I know you looked amazing at your wedding so I'm sure you look just as beautiful!

In regards to your comment on my blog:
Awww Cindy, you are too sweet! That's so funny that you were shy around me! You are quite the beauty yourself!

I love that feeling! Congrats my friend! Well, tell Elmer it is time to gitty on up. He isn't getting any younger, and Kai needs a baby sister. :)

You look awesome in your wedding photos, what a cute family! I'm glad toddlers take weight off you, they don't seem to do that to me:)

Umm. .. first where are these wedding pictures that I never got to see. Second- I totally hear you cindy. We are in the same boat. But my motto now is- If I can't get pregnant then I might as well look awesome in my skinny jens!
