im babysitting my neices this week, eytan and avigail decided to go on holiday so.. here i am. - thank goodness they all go to gan between 8 and 4. and thank goodness i'm on kibbutz so tons of extra support/adult company; laundry and food provided etc.
so far - since yesterday afternoon, it's all going pretty well, no tears from me or the girls. Yet despite having gone to sleep by 11 i'm exhausted. I think i got up abt 5 times for myself during the night - 9th month pregnancy pee runs, and abt 5 times for the girls - pee runs, sheet changes, pats on back, find the dummy hunt... woke up with 3 of us in bed together and none of them Daniel - he'd gone to work already. At some pt during the night I felt like a fifth grader having been handed a bunch of flour babies by someone who wanted to prove I'm not ready to be a mother. - thank goodness kids arnt born age 4!!!
so now im staring at the computer screen too tired to go find the course work i need to do and way too tired to figure out what to do with all the wet, sand filled, pee smelling clothing i stripped off the girls last night.
think i'll watch orgasmic birth now, it'll be an excuse not to move.
btw, to those of you who've given birth/know what i'm talking abt, what are these breathing techniques i'm sposed to have learnt before the birth. my mother almost yelled at me when she heard me saying 'yeah - i think i no how to breathe... just take it slow right?' guess ill go look on utube for a teaching video.
