Hi Girls!
So I have been having a really bad past few days.
I took over caring for our child in the mornings as i work form home and my wife is starting to work half a day. I am grateful for that but it adds stress to my already busy day and now i seem to be doing everything and have no one to ask for help. Bla bla sorry that just sort of came out. I say i can deal wiht the stress rather then having to put my wonderful 6 month old in day care. Plus my wife gets a break from the baby at work.
Anyway that with work and starting to realize that when the baby is fussy i have no one to call for help like my wife does and the after the holiday catch up on money stuff all was making me rather down for a day.
But... the day seems better when the mail came! The mailman brought me a new and my first pair of yoga pants, a new sports bra and black satin cami set from Victoria's Secret. So as the baby is sleeping and I have a break between conference calls i tried them on, well i didn't get to the cami but i but on my new sports bra and yoga pants and that smile came on my face and that feeling(you know the feeling) of the first time you put on no stuff! I am going to have to post some pics in the picture forum once i have the extra time!
Now here is the thing. As I put on those yoga pants and sport bra i realized that this is the first time i have bought myself something other then a sexy bra or satin outfits or lingerie. So what made me really smile i realized is that i am sort of turning a page and starting to want to dress more for normal everyday stuff. I cant wait to do my workout properly dressed! :sad:
Using the word evolving works here but sounds too scientific. I think the word growing fits best here.
As in I am finally letting myself grow into me and yeah, it makes me feel happy.
