I'm super fired up in a thread on MM Moms. Blood pressure through the roof kind of fired up.
My doctor prescribed a cough syrup with codeine and it was fine the first day and a half, but I wound up puking into the kitchen sink out of desperation this afternoon with the shakes. So no more cough syrup for me.
We move the day after tomorrow and I'm so excited.
I'm trying to figure out if I want to call in sick tomorrow. I have a cold. Mostly just a really sore throat, slight fever earlier in the day, and I feel exhausted. I hate calling in unless I really can't accomplish my job. But the thought of talking to people all day tomorrow sounds like hell for my sore throat. Plus, I am lucky enough to have over 200 hours of sick time accrued at this point.
For some reason, the rest of my post got eaten, but anyway, there was a and an expression of how I can't handle her turning 1. She has been such a great baby. I think I've been a better mom this time around. It's been easier to just give her what she needs and not get frustrated. She needs me to hold her and carry her around and do things one-handed sometimes, okay.
I might have given her a bottle for the last time today. I took her into her room to feed her before a nap so she'd relax and look into my eyes like she did when she was younger. She clutched my finger with her fat little hand. (heart) ugh. It goes by too fast. Before I know it, she'll be running around driving me nuts, then she'll be talking back and not wanting to be seen with me, etc. Sigh.. Her little arms are like water weenies and her cheeks are so kissable.
(heart) (heart) (heart)
I guess I'm extending our sperm storage for another year, thank you very much, lol. She is a cutie pie. It's heartwarming to see how happy she makes you
My random is that everything I feared about my mom coming here has already happened. I guess it can only go up from here, eh. She is awesome and annoying as hell at the same time. I think that's a special talent moms have.
I'm in that thread, too. I'm probably not helping with the blood pressure, but that's not my intent. I'm trying to say that without people like you staying level-headed with stuff like this, I may not have ever realized how wrong I was. When people resort to personal attacks (on any side, in any argument), I check out. That's probably why I never understood/appreciated the depth of events. Then people like you & a few others here were able to explain things in a way I never really grasped. So, thank you.
My random: I bought new appliances for my new house today. I was thrilled with the deal I got. Unfortunately, I've been with my H too long for him to be overly impressed with my deal. Oh well! I had a quote from Lowe's & upgraded everything at Sears (same line, just a level or two up) and still spent >$650 less!

My 6 year old boy got in bed with me tonight and held my hand while I talked to him. Then he asked me to rub his hair until he fell asleep.
You don't lose them when they stop the bottle, I promise!

I have never been so drunk as I was from cough syrup + codeine. That stuff effs with me.
I'm exhausted from moving back into our house / errands / being a parent. I think this is the first time I actually sat down this weekend.

Yep, this is is so true. My 7-year-old went shopping with me this afternoon, and we held hands the whole time at his insistence. He told me all about his friends, his theories about Minecraft, and his worries about our upcoming move. He never lets me leave the house without at least three hugs, and draws me pictures at least twice a week at after school care. You lose some of the little baby habits as they grow, and that's sad, but big kid love is pretty awesome too.

This makes me so happy. I really love my baby, but I've always looked forward to the little kid stages. This sounds so awesome.
My mil painted the ugliest portrait of mh for his birthday next week. I'm trying to decide the best way to gently suggest hanging it in the closet. Behind our clothes. Lol.
Also my sister and I made a deal that if we both stuck to our diets this week, we would go shopping together and each buy a new outfit. I just realized my period is starting this week and I am ravenous. I regret every decision I have ever made.

Pics or it didn't happen!
Hahaha we don't have it yet. It's 'not quite done'. Please pray it never gets done. Lol

I will pip as soon as we get it. I was in too much shock to take a picture at mils house. All I could do was stand there agape and manage a 'oh, wow. Woooowwww'. She actually is a pretty good artist, she painted us a lovely landscape (which she hung on my wall while I was on my honeymoon, lol.) but this is so awkward. And I don't really want portraits of baby pictures hanging all over my house. I'm terrified that this will become a trend.

I am buying my first ever bikini or one piece cutout because scary scars but omg I am ready for summer.
And this weekend I mourned a little because while my BF of ~8 months is THE ONE that means that I no longer can realistically move back to Spain. But on the other hand, this guy is it.
