Old Friends

I got to see some friends today that I haven't seen in a while. Our friend Marcy was down from Michigan for a couple of days, so some of us got together with the kids to see her. We all originally met each other as single women at North Point Community Church. It's fun to look back to those days (when we all wondered if, when, and to whom we would get married) and to see each other now, all married with our kids. The only person missing from this picture is Jack, who was asleep the whole time! By the way, I took him to the doctor yesterday to check out his raging case of baby acne and they weighed him........ 12 1/2 pounds! At 5 weeks! I just put him in 3-6 month pjs! He is just a big dude!
On a totally different "mommy" note, I have reached the point after having a baby where I feel like all I want is a day off. I'm weary. The kids have really been great, but the busyness and the late nights and the interrupted sleep are getting to me. I have found myself near tears on several occasions for no good reason other than I am just TIRED! Well, I'm tired and I hate my hair. And I don't have any clothes that fit. And I'm afraid Jack might get lost in the folds of my stomach. And I have my postpartem check next week, which my husband is a little more excited about than I am. Lord give me strength.....and maybe a big glass of wine!
