Just Stay in Bed, Things Are Better Under the Covers
Most days I love being a mom. Then there are day's like today.
We all woke up this morning to Button's screaming (by the way, Button is the baby's name. She just likes to be swaddled and held so much, I feel like she's a button on my shirt! Not to mention she's just a tiny dot of a thing right now. I love that my girls stay little for so long). Googie woke up and yelled at me through the wall "sissy sad, sissy sad" and then I hear "sissy, sissy, shhhhh, shhhhh, sissy, HEY! Sssissy! SHHHHH!!!!" So I drag myself out of bed, go in their room and realize that it is once again time to feed Button. I feel like I am constantly feeding this girl! Every two hours round the clock, except for one 4 hour period at night. She eats constantly.
I turn on a show for Googie (yeah for Dora!) and sit her down so I can nurse Button. She eats for all of 5 minutes per sitting. Such a stinker. Googie and I get breakfast, and then the fun really starts. I set Button down for two seconds and she starts screaming. I pick her up and she stops. It's going to be one of THOSE days. I pull out the trusty sling, which I feel like I should just adopt as a shirt, I wear the darn thing so much! Get Button all cozied up and force the binky on her.
Now that I have Button all setteled down, it's Googies turn to cry. Her cry is more like a whine.
"Mom read me a book, no not like that. AHHHHH. Mom, why are you runining my life! No I don't want to play with my babies, and to prove it I'll scatter them all over the family room, while I throw myself on the ground. No I don't want to finish my breakfast. How dare you ignore my fit! Look at me while I'm screaming at you! HEY!!!! Owww, now I hit my head on the floor because I threw a fit. Feel sorry for me!!! NOOOO Don't Touch ME!!!! AHHHHHH!!!!!"
At least that's what she would have said if she was about 10 years older, I can't wait to have pre-teen/teenagers. She's taking a nap now. She'd been up for two hours and already I'd had enough and put her back to bed. I know, such a mean mom.
I'm supposed to make rolls to take to a little luncheon today. I'm also supposed to take a shower, do the laundry, and apparently pick up every toy we own, but so far nothing has gotten done. I'm so glad I got out of bed this morning.
