Today is just... one of those days. Terrible night curtsey of West last night. This morning he dumped a bowl of baby yogurt on my work pants and the floor. Then I dropped a bowl of kiwi on the floor after painstakingly peeling it and cutting it up into West-edible sized chunks. Argh. So tired. So on my last nerve. Hoping to leave a few hours early ( Read more... )

kid stuff, weekend

*hugs* I don't know where you got the idea that occasionally thinking unkind thoughts about or being irritated with your child makes you a terrible mother, but truly... it does not. :) Trust me. You would be inhuman not to and you loving him doesn't give him a free pass to kick you without it being freaking annoying. So try not to beat yourself up for it too much, hon.

p.s. Saw this a minute ago and thought of you: http://thehairpin.com/2011/09/the-books-arent-helping

Thanks! I really needed this and the link to get through this morning. Left work early, napped, and had a mostly-happy boy this evening, life is feeling better than it was. Plus there's banana bread in the oven. Mmmmmmmm banana bread.

I'm glad to hear you feel better. T is totally right. You are human and we all feel this way sometimes. *hugs*

NOM, banana bread! I am impatiently waiting for three bananas to ripen so I can make some myself.

We all have those days.

Believe me. I was so tired and irritable with Cass my last week of work and over last weekend that I was Not A Good Mom. When I finally got some rest when he visited my parents for most of last week and he came back the other day, I was a Good Mom again.

Then we had the baby, so we'll see if he still considers me a Good Mom in the next few weeks.

We say absolutely horrible things about our dogs including some not so nice names which slip out when they do things like cause me extreme pain with their incredibly long claws that I myself have neglected to cut for weeks upon weeks. I still LOVE them more than anything.

You are not a bad mom. You're exhausted. There's a difference. I would not handle it well if I had a toddler abusing me all night. In fact, I'm pretty sure I'd drop him in a crib and put in some ear plugs. So, who's a bad mom? It's all subjective. Don't be so hard on yourself. *HUG!!!*
