pugz - tell your H that he can dictate how much junk food is too much when he is nursing a baby all day. Until then, if you want some damn cookies, he needs to get them for you.
J is starting to "share" his toys with us. He'll crawl over and offer a toy to us. We take it, make a big show of saying thank you and then ask if he'd like it back to play with it. He squeals and then offers it back to us. It's so darn adorable! He is also pulling up to standing on the dishwasher and tub. We're trying to continue working on him knowing how to sit down so he doesn't just fling himself backwards.
Oh i told him off. Must start grocery shopping myself once it is not 106. Dont want to take her out in that. In his defense, i plowed through 5 bags of various pepperidge farm cookies the first week home with baby. They are expensive.
But i lost weight so he can suck it. Nursing rocks.
The mommy guilt is strong today. Baby boy has had a few fussy days in a row and as a result I am frazzled and tired. DD is getting bored at home even though she has people to entertain her....none of them do the same things as me and she is quickly getting "over it" all I want to do is eat and sleep, but I feel obligated to my DD as well. I know this will pass but I feel like a shit ball
I so hear you on this. My parents are visiting and helping out with my older kids while I am nursing all day long. They've been awesome about taking them out for fun activities every day but my DS2 is having a hard time adjusting to the new baby. He just wants Mommy all the time and gets a sad/angry look on his face whenever he sees me with the baby It's really difficult.
I've also been having crazy anxiety about how I am going to handle three kids when my mom goes home at the end of August. I'll hire a babysitter but they're not always so helpful, you know? I just hope the baby is on more of a predictable schedule by then.

Hang in there, mama! Today MH went back to work so I'm here with the kids and my MIL ( who dosent speak much english but is sweet as pie) and my SIL who will likely sleep until 2pm ( super helpful) so I'm going to try and get out of the house...perhaps the childrens museum...I just want to do something to make my daughter feel happy/recognized.
