Monday Mom Problems

When DS has a blow out on the comforter I literally just washed. What do you have?

Just got in an argument with H, Ava has been toddler-tantruming all day and my mom told me that my dad is "thinking about" leaving her after 38 years of marriage. Pretty shittastic day.

Just got DH and the baby showered and bathed. DD then decided to projectile puke into DH's mouth when he lifted her up. DH then quickly sets DD down proceeding to get spit up all over both of them and their clothes. Since my lovely husband is a baby himself he has been brushing his teeth for 5 straight mins and takes another shower, while I'm cleaning up DD. I hate Mondays.

LO slept thru the night last night for only the third time so of course we were thrilled about getting some sleep! But by 6 am my boobs felt,like they were going to explode! So I go in to pump.....which is set up in his room.....and the damn thing is so loud it wakes him up! Figures.....

Not well. They've been having problems but I didn't know it had reached this level. I feel partly responsible because my mom came up to help with Ava when I was on bed rest and then for two weeks after Mila was born. While she was gone my dad decided he liked his freedom. Whoa, this got heavy.

That is all horrible but I had to laugh a little about her spitting up right into his mouth.

I got nothing today -- except that LO slept all day at daycare and now will probably be up all night. But the past two weeks were so horrible with his teething that I'm feeling very mellow right now...

Went to my school today to turn in the last of my financial aid paperwork and the wait was 3 1/2 hours. Baby girl was with me and slept for about an hour then screamed pretty much the entire time because she is teething like whoa. Fun times.

I wanted to take LO to a meet up of one of the local mommy groups. It was a demo class for baby sign language. I've been trying to join this mommy group, and their rules are pretty strict regarding how much time you have to attend an event. 2 minutes after I pull out of our parking garage, she poops and decides to have a meltdown. I blew off the even and turned back home because it was about a 15 minute drive, and I did not want to put her through that. Impeccable timing!

It is probably the HOTTEST day of the year here (south Louisiana). When we leave the house during the day, we bump the air up to like 74, sometimes 75. Today I did 74, and DS and I ran the roads most of the afternoon. Got home and it was 75 in the house, and I set it to 72. DH is sitting here now bitching about how hot it is in the house, looks at the thermostat and it's up to 77. Now I guarantee you it's not that hot. I have been baking since I got home and the dryer has been running the whole time as well and the door to the laundry room is literally right next to the thermostat. But it's all my fault it's 'so hot'. Saying he could cool off faster outside, in the 98 degree heat. Be my guest buddy. It might help to quit playing COD and getting pissed, raising your blood pressure... I will be fighting the urge to put a pillow over his face tonight as he sleeps.

Starts off this morning at his 4am wake up, I had just went to sleep an hour before that so I am really tired and want to get the feeding done, wham bam thank you ma'am type of way. Well, he got done eating, I throw over the burp blanket over the shoulder, he decided he didn't like that and turned and spit up large amounts in my collar so it goes under my shirt down my front. I get up, change, come back and suddenly the pacifier is gone from this plane of existence.

Apparently that is just enough excitement to wake him up fully for the day.

Hey - don't take that guilt on yourself. You aren't responsible for your dad's life crisis. I'm sorry you are having such a cruddy start to the week. Hope things are better at your house tonight with your H and toddler.

When I used almost a quarter of a tank of gas today driving to work and back home twice to nurse M because he will.not.take.a.bottle (I usually use half a tank all week)

There is a direct correlation between the amount of time he will spend playing solo to the time of day. The later it gets the less time he will play alone. At his best, morning=15-30 mins. At his worst, evenings= 2-3 minutes

. I'm so sorry. That really sucks.

Thanks. I just can't believe it. I hope he comes to his senses. Our family has always been so close and this would just rip us apart.
