The road to real food...

Today is a monumental day for me....hehe...I get to start eating "pureed food".   Ooh - I know - sounds  horrid, right?  But believe me, it is a welcome change from the protein shakes, sugar free pudding and cream of wheat I've been eating.  I was able to have scrambled eggs for breakfast this morning - such a normal thing - and it was great!  I went and stocked up on a few packs of baby food veggies yesterday, as well as some vanilla yogurt and canned fruit to make smoothies.  I can also have chicken salad in the blender - sounds gross - but at least it will have flavor!  Tomorrow, I pull out the Wii Fit and start really tracking my weight and doing some beginning excersise.  Hopefully by the end of the week I will be able to pick up Alex!  I think so far that has been the hardest part of it all - not the food, not the pain, but not really being able to snuggle with my little guy.  Soon.....very soon.....
