I had an orgasm last night for the first time in FOR.EV.ER. It was AWESOME. I hated all things sex related during pregnancy and was not one of those people that gets the second trimester sex drive. Now I want to have lots or orgasms!
I took my kid to daycare this morning for the first time. I'm a mess, cried the whole way home, called my H bawling, and now I'm drowning my sorrows in candy and coffee and fighting the urge to call them every 5 minutes. I'm so afraid she won't get enough attention or be held enough.
I love watching reruns of Frasier.
I went ToTing last night with my 2 year old niece and my sister's boyfriend's older kids (10 and 8). Omg, I was exhausted. There's about 75 houses in my subdivision and they wanted to hit every single one. Kids have too much energy and I'm old and out of shape.
I think I'm going to make an appointment for a massage this weekend. And a pedicure.
I go back to work Monday. Yay and boo.
Ok, I just called the daycare and checked on M. They said she just had a bottle and is doing great. But they could be lying liars, yes?
H last night said something jokingly about me cheating on him ... i said " I don't even want to have sex with you, why would I be having sex with anyone else?" It was supposed to be more of a slam against myself, like I have a low sex drive right now, I suck. But he took the part about me not even wanting to have sex with him as a slam against HIM, and then his feelings were all hurt all night long.
oops. I didn't really know what to say, or do. I tried to be really nice. I don't know if it worked.
Oh, Poppy! I bet she really is doing great. They know this is a trial run before you go back to work right? So they'd totally tell you if they thought you should cut it short. Enjoy your pampering this weekend!

Yes, they know I'm just doing a few hours today and tomorrow and that I start work next week. Luckily, my H gets off work by early afternoon (he usually works 4:30am-1 or 2pm), so he will be picking her up everyday. It makes me feel better that she won't be there all day long, but it still sucks.

LOL, I'm sorry but that's funny. Your poor H. I hated sex while pregnant; it never felt good to me and I only did it for H. I mostly just gave blowjobs. Lots and lots of blowjobs. Quick, minimal effort and clean up. Lol
Poppy, they aren't lying. She is a smart, happy resilient little girl who I am SURE is doing marvelously.
Hang in there!
All you people and your bedroom activities are making me jealous! I, um, have barely even talked to H since last week, let alone anything more fun than that.
Oh Poppy!! The first week is the hardest. I had a horrible time going back to work, BUT it ended up being a great thing. She had the best time and the teachers loved her to death. They did art and tummy time, etc and she made great friends as she got older. DD will do great and they are going to shower her with love and affection, I promise! Sending you HUGE hugs!!
Thanks puddle
I know it's harder on me than on her right now. She's just so little and I just don't want them to forget about her. She hasn't had shots yet so they don't want to put her on the floor around the other older babies, and she loves to lay on a playmat on the floor and play. Also, they told me today that starting next week they'll have 15 babies in there. When I first signed M up before she was born, they only had 8 or 9. 15 just seems like a lot and I worry that they'll be too busy to really hold and cuddle her like she needs. I know I sound half ridiculous, but I can't help it!

We have sex on the weekends, or do sex acts of his choosing. I'm not trying to be a total ass... i feel bad, but just can't get that into it...
Poppy I PROMISE she is doing great. Here is the thing about little babies. They adapt really easy. This is a million times harder for you. And she will feel loved there. I struggled with this each time even though logically I knew both boys would be fine. Now Leo breaks out in a big smile for his DCP. I had my reservations that she wouldn't hold him enough etc. But she just carts him around with her all day. Go do something enjoyable to take your mind off of it.
Someone smashed our pumpkins last night. ASSHOLES. I feel oddly violated by this even though I know it is a common thing. They even stole our cute little pumpkin family. We had picked out a pumpkin to represent each one of us. Get off my lawn kids!
Also Poppy there are really great things about sending your kid to DCP that people don't talk about. My DCP got Leo to take a bottle. He refused before that. She got him on a eating and sleeping schedule which in turn allowed me to get him on a night time schedule. She helped him do the whole go into crib awake and put oneself to sleep thing. The routine part itself is worth the heartache of the first week.

Ugh! The first thing I did this morning was open the front door and make sure our pumpkins were still intact. WHY is smashing pumpkins a thing?? Annoying.
Today has been bad since I woke up the kid. Missed bedtime last night so he is a beast today. The other manager here has a man cold and is being a grouchy, condescending turd. I missed something impressively stupid on an estimate and of course my GM reviewed it and was all ".....?" And all I could do was shrug and say sorry because it was *so* stupid I have no clue how I did it.
I am completely over today. And it's not even 10 am.

The schedule thing does make me feel better. Right now, I really don't have her on one. When I dropped her off this morning they asked me what her schedule was like so they could write it down and I was like "uhh, she doesn't...have one ", lol.
Do you guys think 15 babies is too much for an infant room with 3-4 teachers?
To keep up with the sex theme, Jack is going to stay at my parents for a long weekend. I am using this time with just one kid to get our mojo back. H doesn't know it but I have goals for the weekend lol.
I have this morning off from my P/T job, and decided to wax my eyebrows and 'stache while H is out of the house. No problems with the waxing. I did however, get moisturizer in my eye when I was done. The damn thing won't stop blurring and watering.
I have a phone interview this afternoon for a job I really want.
last night, this girl (about 12?) walked INTO my house when ToTing, looked around and said "this is good candy. nice house. i really like your rug." she then patted my kid on the head and left. i couldn't decide if she was rude, or hilarious. still can't.
A preliminary hearing I was going to attend was cancelled yesterday, but we didn't find out until we got there. I know our contact didn't find out until ten minutes before, but it's still annoying. Twenty people came out, some from out of state, and we just had to turn around. But I do think it will make next time less stressful. I felt like barfing all day yesterday.
I'm trying to talk DH into doing family pictures this weekend. We usually do them every year but haven't gotten around to it this year. Last year was the first time we sent out holiday (well, New Years) cards and it was fun and i want to do it again and have nice pictures to use.
I was surprised at how much DD enjoyed ToTing (she'll be 3 in January). She wasn't shy and she walked most of the way - she asked for a shoulder ride when we started heading home. It was fun!
I got my Benihana birthday coupon today, awww yeah, it's birthday month! I'm worse than a child when it comes to my birthday, I love it.
