Random thoughts:

Tough Decisions
One of my friend's was telling me about this show on TV that a couple gave their baby up for adoption because they were so young but the parents on both sides where trying to get them to keep the baby. In the end the kids gave the baby up because they new it was the best for the baby and them. I'm so glad those kids gave the baby up despite their parents! I'm glad they were mature enough to know what will be best for them and their baby. DH's cousin is giving her baby up too. She's due the beginning of August. It's a hard decision but one she knows and feels she must do. I've been able to talk to her via chat on facebook and it's been great to be a support system to her.

Friendship
So most of my friends are from church. One's from my birthing class with DD and another is from high school. Most of my activities are set-up through church too! I'm very lucky to have a great group of people around me. Frankly all the "me" time I get at night helps me have more energy and get revived for the day. DH gets his too by playing volleyball and basketball at night during the week when I get back and he goes to the movies a lot with one of our friends.

Pregnancy Weight
Someone told me that women seem to gain less weight with each subsequent pregnancies. I thought that was interesting. So for me I gained I think48lbs with DD and 35-40 with LM so it was a little less. I also went 2 weeks longer with LM too. So it was true for me. I have never heard that before.

I also am VERY HAPPY when young birth parents can have the maturity and foresight to see that adoption is such a wonderful option. Yay for your cousin. She is doing the right thing...The hardest thing, but the right thing.
