All's well with motorboy.

I'm fattening him up like a milk pig- he's up to 9 pounds frm 7.5 at birth. I swear that everyday when i wake up I think he looks just a little fatter and I look just a little thinner. He's sucking me dry. Literally, as it seems breast feeding makes my skin really dry. Although now that i think about it, I had really dry skin before i was pregs so maybe my dry skin is just a return to the status quo.
I'm so grateful that motorboy and i don't have any breast feeding problems. My tight tight ass would just ache at having to buy formula. I still can't bring myself to buy disposable diapers, but i'm starting to get mt laundry groove on, and slinging motorboy while i do it so that i can take advantaage of his sleepy times do more fun stuff like having a shit and a shower.
My mom is coming to visit next thursday and will be here for two weeks! I can't wait to see her again, it's been almost four years. The first weekend we'll be staying with my ils in barcelona.
I'm hoping my mom will help me with my mammary tourism photo project. I want to have pictures of motorboy and I breastfeeding in front of as many touristic icons as possible. Combining two of my favourite things: tourism and nursing in public with my breast flopping shamelessly in the sun. I hope my mom doesn't get all modest and embarassed and put adamper on my fun.
the second weekend we're going to the costa brava and tothe south of france. it'll be great! I've found that in the sling motrboy will be chill and sleep through almost anything. so as long as we're willing to put up with allhis pissyness compressed in the times when we take him out of th sling or stop moving, we should be able to take him anywhere.
anyway, lots more to say but gotta stop nursing at the keyboard. just noticed that motorboy is giving me a big hickey just abve my right nipple just to keep me on my toes.

love the mammary tourism photo project!

Glad you are doing so well. 3 weeks, I think I was still asleep at three weeks. You are on this mama!

Buggies was a sling baby too, always wanted to be in the sling or held. He would tolerate short periods out of our arms if he was tightly swaddled.
