Lately I have found myself becoming very emotional about my DS, about what a big boy he is, about how fast he has grown up, about the fact it won't just be him etc. I have been spending a lot of time looking at his baby pictures and reminiscing about the past. I am sure it is very normal but it almost hurts my heart! Of course I am happy and proud of him but it is overwhelming to think about the fact the really DO grow up and FAST! Just wondering if anybody else has been a weepy fool like me about this lately.
Re: If you already have a DC
LOL Red, nah it's cool- get your alone time in with your cats now- they grow up so fast!!!
Dave is 13, Gootch is going to be 10 and Lil Red is going to be 6.
I'm aware that Dave is in his twilight years but I love him like an appendage and I would be lost without him. I'm just so happy that he gets to be a big brother to a non-fur baby. I just love him to pieces.?
DD -- 5YO
DS -- 3YO
Well Red it is a good thing you are popping out a human baby...one more cat and you could be considered borderline Crazy Cat Lady
ETA: I don't know why I quoted you eleventybillion times just now
i bawled my eyes out tonight when saying goodnight prayers with DS... tomorrow night he stays at my sister's house b/c my c/s is so early on Monday... so tonight was my last time saying prayers with him before bed- with his world as he knows it....
i'm so sad that he won't understand the changes about to happen- that he's too young to explain things to.... and yeah- that he's such a big boy- and i know how fast this went with him- it's giong to fly by with the twins- and then suddenly all 3 of my boys will be in college and i'll say "wtf???? when did that happen?"
I have had those moments but they were more in the beginning of the pregnancy. I would look at DS and cry and say things like, "Remember how much mommy loves you and you will always be my first baby...." as if he was worried about that. LOL. I was terrified of it not just being him.
Now, I've adjusted more and am really thrilled to see my boys together and see DS as a big brother. He's grown so much just during this pregnancy. I am so proud of him!
But, being pregnant again often reminds me of being pregnant with him. And I just can't believe how fast time has gone by. The fact that I can honestly say, "This kid is not even here yet and yet now I KNOW just how quickly he will be THREE." And DS will be SIX.... Aaaahhh!!!!!!
