teeth, snot, and poop

All three was the reason my baby was up throughout the night, I feel bad for him, but it wasn't so great for me either.  We put all the kids down at 7pm, and I finally laid down at 10pm, and I think we were in sync because that is when he woke up, and slept in spurts, and woke up screaming, snotty, gassy, and I know all those teeth are trying to poke through.

It's not easy being a baby, in the first 2 years of life, you become a completely different person in a very quick amount of time.  The bones are changing, your body is getting used to all types of food, and it's such a challenge to express yourself when only a few sounds come out.

It is really amazing with our third baby, he has only complained when there really was a valid reason so even though its frustrating, we do our best to stay calm, work together, and figure it out.  Some kids just want constant touch, attention, more sensitive, or just like to express themselves very loudly.

JOY!

I have a full day ahead, will not be done until 11pm, luckily doing everything I love.  God Bless my husband who has kid duty today, I hope it warms up a bit, so they can go outside, otherwise they will have a nice day at home before a full school week.  I think a day at home is a good thing as long as they keep busy.  It is amazing to me the creative games they play, since this morning my older two have been playing non stop, first they had breakfast, and then creating different worlds in their bedroom.  The baby was playing for quite a while too, but was exhausted from his long night, so I just put him down.

Once you become a parent, teeth, snot, and poop become daily topics of conversation.  When our body is functioning properly, bodily functions are pleasant, and we just go about our lives not thinking about it.  Our body is an amazing machine, I am working on getting my body back to the fat burning machine it used to be before kids.  Luckily it is an energy machine, and everything works good, so my focus is to get rid of the excess and get me back.  Fellow moms know it doesn't happen overnight, and its not something you stop working on.  I am still figuring out after a year, my baby just turned 1, so now there are no more excuses.


Committing to Myself,

Putting Myself First,

Being an Example for my Children,

For my Clients,

Husbands are actually quite lucky, they get so many different types of a woman as we go through bride, pregnant, baby, and after baby,

I am ready to get that bride back!
