I could have choked DH last night!
We had a few people over last night for the American Idol Finale. I made beef stew and biscuits for dinner for everyone, then root beer floats for dessert. I don't know what it is, but whenever people come over it seems like more work. I am always up cleaning, picking up after people and I always feel like something needs to get done. Needless to say, I was so tired at 11pm when I finally laid down in bed. Tell me why DH wanted to have sex???? Of course he did! When I explained to him how tired I was and how I couldn't even keep my eyes open his reply was, "You are always tired."
Um, duh!!! Have you noticed that I am still doing everything I normally do, clean up after the kids, do laundry, cook and work all day...plus my body is working overload while it makes your son??!?!?!? I was so mad. I said to him, "Of course I am tired. I can hardly keep my eyes open and I don't think you get what I have done tonight and how tired I am right now. I just need to sleep."
Tell me why this morning when I was dropping him off at work, he gave me the biggest hug and longest, most warm kiss ever. One of those ones that really tell you that person loves you with all their heart. It gave me goose bumps and made my heart skip a beat.

Re: I could have choked DH last night!
Oh goodness, I could have written this last week! We've been doing so much and I just get so exhausted it's crazy! We moved last weekend and I've been trying to get everything re-organized while DH is at work but it's just impossible! You did more than I could have last night, that's for sure.
Was that hug and kiss him saying sorry? Those are the best hugs and kisses ever though, gotta love goose bumps!
I am pretty sure that's what the kiss and hug meant. DH isn't a man of a lot of words. His actions speak more for him. It was a great feeling. Its been a while since I have really felt a kiss like that. And I don't know how I did all that stuff either. I just couldn't sit down lol!
Aww, I can defnitely relate - although you seem to deal with what I deal with, amplified. I'm glad he gave you an "I'm sorry" that way. That's really sweet.
Can I ask... is he still expecting you to go back to work after 2 weeks? I was thinking about this the other day... I just don't know how you are going to do that! Most daycares don't even take babies that young, for good reason. I actually had a dream that my employer told me that was their maternity policy - 2 weeks - and I quit, I thought it was so ridiculous. Hope you don't mind my asking and hijacking your post about it, I was just curious.... I am so hoping for your sake you can get more time than that. Sorry, I'm trying to send good thoughts your way, but it doesn't seem to be coming out right.
He is thinking 2 weeks, but the more we talk about it the more he realizes its probably not possible. It just really all depends how to delivery goes and how much we get saved up before baby comes. There are a lot of things we have to pay for before baby comes like a bigger car and $650 for our little mans circumsition. But I know it's all going to work out. I have talked him into understand 3 weeks is needed, even if some of that time isn't paid. So I think I can talk him into one more if I can start showing him how we can save X amount of money per month. It's not that he doesn't want me to stay home, if he could have it his way, I would be a SAHM, but financially it's just not possible. Maybe one day though. DH is very, show me the black and white, he wants no gray. Where as I am, it's okay to have gray because we will work it out. It's funny how we balance ourselves that way sometimes. But thanks for caring. And don't worry it came out fine! =]
