I feel like it has been forever since I wrote here last but I"m sure you are getting sick of me saying that!? It just seems like the older Jacob is getting the harder it is to get on the computer. He has decided that he only needs one nap a day which is kinda nice cause it is usually about an hour and half long but that means that I only have a short amount of time to clean house, do laundry and sometimes he naps when I'm out and a bout so it feels like I don't even get a break! Since we are on the topic of Jacob I may as well tell you what is new with him .... he now has 4 teeth!! Which he likes to grind! yes, grind - it is like hearing nails on a chalk board! But I suppose it is better then the squealing stage ? We only have two more classes of swimming left and then we are done till the fall, all the pool offers now is evening and weekend classes but we may drop in once and a while for something to do. O - I almost forgot .... we went for his 9 month doctor appointment to the new doctor that I was excited to meet, she was nice. We kinda got a lecture about getting him off his midnight feeding (which happens to be a new thing he likes doing so I really wasn't too concerned about it-and I'm still not really concerned about). He now weighs 23lbs 10oz!!! :o and is 28 1/2" long. I got to ask all the questions I had concerns about and she reassured me that everything is OK and he seems really healthy. We go back in 6 months for his 15 month check up. He still is not crawling but trying really hard and almost is doing the army crawl. He likes to stand and if we move his legs like he is walking he usually laughs his head off, not too sure why it's funny but he seems to think it is!? I think that is all for Jacob news!?
So I never posted my weigh in last week cause honestly there wasn't much to post ... I only lost -0.4lbs, a trend that I am seeing more of now!? My motivation was going quickly down hill and I am please to say that this week my weight loss has picked up my spirits a bit, with a -2.2lb loss!! Yeah! I think there is only 3 weeks left in the "New Mom Biggest Loser" contest and these are my stats so far:
Week 1 = -4.2lbs
week 2 = -2.4lbs
week 3 = +0.4lbs
week 4 = -1.2lbs
week 5 = -3.4lbs
week 6 = -0.4lbs
week 7 = -1.6lbs
week 8 = -0.4lbs
week 9 = -2.2lbs
I still don't think I have done enough to win but I'm pleased with how much I have lost! I am now officially back in Onederland! Where I was after having Jacob and before getting my gallbladder out! I sometimes get mad at myself for binging after my surgery cause I would be that much closer to my pre-pregnancy weight but it sure was fun! I have three more months before I go back to work and I would like to loose about 25 more pounds, which I think is totally do able!? That is really only 2lbs a week and with spring coming I'm hoping to get out more and walk more so I think that will help!?
Well - I should go now, this post is getting long and I have other things to check now that I am on the computer! ;) Hopefully I can post again soon!!

You are doing great on the weight loss front!! You have only gained once in 9 weeks!!! WOAH - 9 months!! He is too cute!! Charley didn't crawl until Thanksgiving so she was almost 10 months - so you have time. plus once he starts crawling...you'll have to chase him around...just wait!! :)
Yeah, my little one (almost 9 months) seems to one to cut back to one nap a day, but I am trying to stay with two! I like having two breaks in my day, even if they're short.
