Donuts, Babies and Running

Can't the weekends pleeeeeeease go by SLOWER????

So this weekend we had our cheat meal at Krispy Kreme!! SOOO good, but I ate way too many! Here's what was left of a dozen donuts:

The sad thing is I ate just as many as my husband, and he's twice my size! Maybe next time we shouldn't get a whole dozen. One day I'll learn...

Sunday we went and visited my cousin in the hospital who just had a baby! He is just sooo adorable. Here's me with little baby Landen:

Of course, every time I post pics of me holding a baby to Facebook everyone says, "It's your turn now!" or "When are you and Matt gonna have one?" I am just NOT ready for that at all. I keep telling myself maybe in a few years I'll be ready or I'll want to have a baby, but I just don't know if I'll ever want to have one! Maybe my need or desire to have a child will kick in one day, but it's not there yet! There are times when I think that it would be fun to have a kid, but the many reason why I DON'T want one always overcome the reasons why I would want to have one!

ANYway, today's WOD was running, my favorite!(Yeah right.) Running is my weakness, so I know I need to do it. I just don't think my body was made to run! It feels horrible, and it's not fun at ALL. We had to run 800 meters, then rest 2 minutes for 3 rounds. These are the days when I'd much rather be doing a bodybuilding workout!

Oh, and we booked a cabin in the woods for our 5 year anniversary in March! It's not the beach....but it's something we've never done, and it'll be nice and relaxing with the hot tub on the deck and a beautiful view and a fireplace! I can't wait! I wish I didn't have to wait 2 more months!!!

    Oh how I miss donuts! I don't miss the feeling after I eat them just during : ) Such a cutie little Landen is. You are smart to hold off having kids until you're ready. They are a blessing but sometimes the desire comes a little later. My sister is 31 and pregnant with her first. She didn't have a desire until last year. Enjoy the time with your man while you have it and have a wonderful anniversary!

People always said That time would heal the pain But how can that be When mine still remains? The tears still fall At just the thought of you So I know that what they say Just can't be true As the years go by I miss you so much still  No matter how much time passes I know I always will How are you not here To ease my hurting heart? Never could I have imagined We would ever be apart My world has been shattered A piece of me is gone And all I can do is pray For strength to live on I know that one day soon I will see you again I just have to try to suffer through And make it until then

Putting My Heart Out There

Hey guys. Here's where we're at right now: Matt finished his radiation treatments last week. Did they help? I don't know. He's sleeping a lot more. Having trouble chewing and swallowing. Not eating much. Not talking much, at least not in full sentences. It's just been a slow, steady decline for the last few months. I think it was really too late for radiation....But who knows, maybe it is delaying things. We went in last Tuesday for his infusion and talked with his neuro-oncologist about everything that we've been seeing with Matt, and he decided that we're at the point now where we should discontinue treatments...I feel like it's the right decision, even though it breaks my heart knowing that there is nothing else we can do. But I feel like we've done everything. All the supplements, the diet, the chemo, the radiation... Matt has fought hard. He never gave up hope. He kept the faith. He never complained through any of this. Not once did I hea...

Why?

Why? Why do I care so much?  Why do I make sure they brush their teeth at night so that they don't get cavities? Why do I spend my own money to buy them clothes, toys and decorate their rooms, among other things?  Why do I do 5,000 loads of laundry a week to make sure they have clothes to wear to school? Why do I make sure they go to church on Sundays so that they'll be raised to know about Jesus? Why do I try to give them chores and responsibilities so that they will turn out to be decent human beings? Why do I read them a bedtime story at night, even when I'm exhausted? Why do I clean up after them constantly and cook for them and try to always have healthy snacks and food on hand? Why do I go to their sports games and practices, just to feel like the odd man out standing there awkwardly with their bio mom? Why do I give 100% of myself and make so many sacrifices for children I didn't birth? Only to be insulted and told hurtful things? To be made to feel like I'm ...
