I don't want to go to work today. I want to stay home and bake Christmas cookies. I don't like my work clothes, but can't really justify the cost of buying a new wardrobe. Wah!
I have the stomach flu that both the girls had over the weekend

Goodbye my second angel (9/18/2011)
I don't want to go to work today. I want to stay home and bake Christmas cookies. I don't like my work clothes, but can't really justify the cost of buying a new wardrobe. Wah!
I so feel you! I want to be home with my girl, playing and or some shopping.
Ok, I have 4 weeks left of mat leave. I am soo grateful I was able to take off as much time as I did but DREADING going back. She is my buddy and I'm going to miss her terribly every day. I'm trying to be positive but its hard. I REALLY want to be a sahm but I'd be walking away from a pretty good job, ugh.
I have to go on a 2h each way trip on Friday with DD and DH to get things done for my dissertation. Since we have to leave early, I am going to have to wake DD up 2h earlier than her normal wake-up time.

I'm sorry jamiah. It is not an easy decision to make.
I still don't know if I made the right choice to accept this job. But I figure if I do decide to eventually stay home at least I gave it a shot.
On the plus side, my DS is doing very well at daycare. Whatever you decide, your DD will be just fine. It's definitely harder on us than it is on our LOs!
Between the work and the baby, I have little time left. I have no problem with this, but I hate Christmas shopping. I wish my families would just agree to eat a delicious meal together and not buy presents. Call me a Grinch, but I don't need or want anything. I'm fine with children getting presents, but I'm an adult. I also don't mind getting DH husband presents, but the extended family gets to be a little much. Let's just share food and company. I do more stressing over what to get people. In past, DH's families have said no presents. I thought, great that's what they mean. Wrong, they mean get presents and look at you like an alien when you don't show up with presents.

This is what our family decided to do this year and I'm so glad! It's basically Thanksgiving part 2, but all the babies will get presents. It's taken away so much of the stress.

thanks Jessie! Yes, I definitely have to go back to at least give it a shot before I make any kind of decision.

Annnd it's raining here today...
Annnnd Elliot woke up at 9:40 instead of the usual 10:30 so I'm curious how the day will go.
