Re: Open Letter Wednesday
Dear DH,
Not sure what the heck you were thinking when you insisted your dad and stepmom fly out here for the birth and that they were more than welcome stay with us via skype last night. And when I mentioned after we hung up that I wished you would have discussed this with me first, you immediately turned it around and said well, your mom stayed with us after DS was born for a few days. NOT THE SAME!!! Much different having my mom there to HELP clean and cook a week after DS was born then having to entertain and hide out in the bedroom everytime I need to feed this LO since I don't want to whip my boobs out in front of my FIL. And you know your step mom isn't going to do a damn thing to help. They are already coming out in April, I'm not sure why you felt the need to guilt them into coming in late January/early Feb as well!
Sometimes you just don't think.
Love you but not liking you too much right now, The Wife
Dear body,
Can you just stay asleep? You are exhausted and you know this, so why do you insist on waking up 15 times a night?? You aren't even that pregnant yet! This shouldn't be happening so early! Don't you know we are going to be up every two hours in a few months anyway, so lets rest up now!
Signed, Very tired
Dear beach,
I miss you. I want to be back on vacation again.
Love, Me
Dear DC,
I really like the changes you have made to the classrooms/staff. Whereas, I was a bit sad that DD2 will lose the dream team of teachers, I am ecstatic she is in a class of 6 kids w/ 3 teachers (2:1 ratio). We like these teachers a lot too!

Dear Bump Gods,
WTF happened yesterday afternoon to the website w/ the replies? I work and can only jump online a few times a day. I don't like being restricted on the few times I can bump.

Dear FinancialDiva,
Are you finding out the gender of your baby? 17 wks...it's almost time (if you haven't already). I'm excited for you! I'm sure the big U/S will reveal a healthy growing baby too.

This made me giggle...I know what you mean tho. Tylenol PM was my bf during pg.
Dear LoCarb,
Thanks for asking! I can't believe I am already 17 weeks, but I still have two more weeks to go until I find out the gender. Sept 5th can't come fast enough! Is your vacation coming up or did you already take it? And thanks for the suggestion on the tylenol PM. I might have to try that!
Signed, Financialdiva :-)
Dear FD-
Vacay begins Sept 7, I'll be sure to sign on TB 9/5 to hear your news! It sounds like you had a wonderful time at the beach. They always go by too fast....
-LCDEAR people and your unwanted opinions,
Please stop saying to me "Why are you putting him in a daycare? Your baby is going to be sick all the time. Why don't you stay home or find a nanny to come to your house?
For those of you asking....why don't you quit your jobs and watch my baby!!! I do not have a choice...I have to work, DH has to work, therefore, DS has to go to daycare. We were very fortunate for my dad and sister to be off during the summer and they were able to watch him, but now my sister is back at school and my dad goes back to work Sept 3rd.
So please stop making me feel like I am a bad person for not staying home! just because I work, doesn't me I am NOT a full time mom, and just because I work doesn't mean other people are raising my baby. We are full time parents and We raise our DS!!
So your stupid questions and opinions are unwanted. I am already having a difficult time going through the process of trying to find a daycare, thinking about the cost, and I am so sad and stressed out that DS can't be with family members anymore. So please just be supportive, or be quiet!
thanks!
Dear Wednesday,
Why aren't you Friday?
Signed, tired momma
Dear co-worker,
I have been running around frantically trying to gather information in an attempt to be ready for a meeting you cancelled. Thanks for letting me know in a timely matter (sarcasm).
Signed, super annoyed
Dear LO,
I hope you feel better soon. Maybe the doctor will finally give you meds for your hurty tummy and you can eat and sleep easier.
Signed, the momma whose been calling the doc at least once a week!
Dear co-workers,
Go easy on this pregnant chick- eh?! My ego is taking quite a hit with the loss of many of my beloved job duties due to the hotshot newbie. Please stop stepping on my toes as well.
