Well, here I am, with two kids! Is anyone else on the planet more shocked by this than me?
My son (S) is now 4.5 months old, and he is as big as E was when she was ONE YEAR OLD. I’m having trouble with him not sleeping well, because in my head I’m all like “you are big, so you must be old.” That’s not how things work though, I’m afraid. Too bad though, I could really use some sleep. Maybe soon…. *fingers crossed*
I know I haven’t been around much, but having two kids is ten times harder than having one. (SURPRISE!) and most days I’m struggling to just eat food. Not cold food, but any food at all. When I do get to eat, I eat an entire plate of food in four minutes. I’ve also been struggling with stomach aches… not sure why though.
My husband just got a vasectomy on Friday. I’ll admit that on Thursday I was kind of freaking out. I sort of wanted to stop the whole thing, have 12 more babies, and be one of those moms no one understands. Luckily, it was just a mild freak out, my husband reminded me that I’m losing my mind, and he got it done. When he got back home from the procedure, I was suddenly so calm and elated with the decision. I could not be more happy that our family is complete, and now we can focus on things like preschool for E, and getting S to sleep (maybe?), and MAYBE… just MAYBE…. one day I’ll get to shower in the daylight again. You see, S still sleeps in my room, and I have to shower after he’s asleep, and the light would maybe wake him up, and it’s not worth even trying to see if he’d sleep through it. So, I shower in the dark. I don’t shave now… I’m not that reckless. Yes, I am as hairy as a bear now, thanks for asking.
Well, that’s about all the time I have now. E isn’t napping and S just woke up from his and is staring at me. I know he’s trying to tell me something…. but what?? Babies…
