just a perfect day



today pre and i went to the mommy and me matinee at the los feliz 3 and watched "it's complicated,"  the movie with alec baldwin and meryl streep.  i had the best time at the movie.  pre was such a gentleman.  he made two huge poos during the movie so i missed a little bit of it but oh man it was enjoyable.  there were a few newbies there today.  one lady was there with her 6-week-old and another lady had her 2-week-old.  i'm pretty sure i was still in pajamas all day at 2 weeks postpartum.  it was her second kid so she was pretty confident.

later in the afternoon i was doing a bit of tv-watching and ended up on the ellen show.  it was mindless crap.  richard simmons was showing off his new "sweatin' to the oldies" moves.  i realized i was missing out on my son because i was watching tv.  what's worse is that he was watching too!  ugh.  i turned off the tv and put some jobim on.

i got down on the floor with pre and played with him.  the sun was setting, desafinado was playing and i realized i was having the perfect moment with my baby.  i basked in it for a while then i took this picture.

diet update:  i'll admit it, i cut a little lose today but i didn't go crazy.  used some of my extra points.  didn't exercise today.  still motivated and optimistic.
