i have both kids in bed before 9! i feel like super mom right now. not! but nice for me to get a break.
rob is still helping w/ the hurricane damage and all that. it's great money, don't get me wrong...but I would give it all up to have him home. :(
I miss him. I remember after having Robby having my first 'meltdown' when he was around 3 months old and now I've had it w/ Kate...mainly just a new life adjustment if you will.....but still-I wish he were here to give me a hug and tell me everything is going to be ok.
I will be fine and stronger because of it all, I know this, but still I'm a little in the dumps. Most Moms aren't brave enough to admit these struggles but I have no real problem with it I guess. With all that said, I wouldn't trade anything to have the beautiful children I have or the time spent w/ them.
In like 3 seconds I'll be fine again! lol-but this is for me to look back on someday and know I made it through the difficult times. Hmm..what is so difficult? I guess mainly having like NO time for myself and less time w/ Robby and juggling making both of them happy. Again, a juggling process. Like, keep the house clean (I should be more lax i think), make sure kids are fed, clean up again, make sure they make it to their Gymboree classes on time and to Church etc...) Oiy! Really, not that bad I promise but still figuring it out all over again. Kate is a much easier baby than Robby was so that works but she wants to be in her Bjorn all the time so it's hard to do much like that..and she doesn't like me to sit when she's in it...so I can't really read to Robby or play cars w/ him etc...like he wants....which is where the nanny comes in...she can Bjorn Kate and Robby and I can do 'our thing' and then kind of take turns. The agency called tonight and expect to set me up mid next week. :) (this week)
not sure what all I typed this all out for but it's nice to express what is on my mind...even if it's just typed out.........
