I wanna talk about me

If you're familiar with country music, you probably got the gist of my post title; if you're not, you just think I'm shallow now. ;)
I was all set to have a bunch of witty, informative, thought-provoking posts drafted to auto post while I was on vacation.
Yeah. Not gonna happen.
So, sorry, guys. Those of you still faithfully reading, your stuck with a meme. I'll try to post at least once from Florida to spare you from looking at this for the nest week and a half. But no promises.

Hey lady! I hope you're enjoying FL and that Seth's major pooping episodes are on the downswing. :) I can totally understand about the post-m/c weight. After I have these babies I'm not worried about the PG weight...it's the 30 pounds I gained throughout having 4 m/c's that I'll have to work my butt off to remove. It's enough to drive you batty. But now's the season for having fun. We have all of 2009 to worry about it right? :) Have a very Merry Christmas!! Can't wait to see you on the 28th. Hugs, D.
