Shhh! Don't tell Trey's parents, but my back is really complaining this morning.When my mother stopped in for a visit yesterday, she picked up Trey and asked, "How much does this child weigh? He's heavier than a sack of potatoes!"
With that, DH received the child into his arms and headed to the scale, just to find out. We were not surprised: 27 pounds.
This week of caring for Trey - bending over to let him hold my finger, picking him up to play, lowering his sleeping body into the Pack-n-Play, putting him into and taking him out of the car seat, carrying him into stores - has been a terrific reminder exactly how much weight 40 pounds is...13 pounds more than I've been hauling around this week! In other words, a Trey-and-a-half. WHEW!
What physical reminders do you have how much weight you've lost?
