Logging into the home page makes me sad

The stupid Bump ticker tells me there is 22 days until K's first birthday. That's not possible, I mean I just gave birth last month, right ? Right ?!?!? How did we all get here so stinking fast ?

There's really no point to this, just had to weep publicly for a minute. Carry on, I'm just going to go stare at my kid while she sleeps

I finally made her invites, and now I can't bring myself to print them. I'm having a hard time coming to grips with it.

I have them printed and envelopes addressed...mailing them makes it too real.

This year went waaaay faster than ds's first year. I'm going to be a sobbing mess at their bday party next week.

Tomorrow for us. Sigh...

I'm not ready for this. DS1 started 1st grade today and DD will be 1 next month. I don't know where the time has gone and it makes me sad.

One of my favorite parenting quotes: "The days are long but the years are short." So true.

Mine is already counting down to my kid's SECOND birthday :-O

us too. A year ago today I was induced.

Yep, me too! I was all excited and hopeful...then the doctor broke my water and ish got real (real painful, that is!)

14 days here. I bookmarked S12 last month because I was tired of seeing the home page ticker.

( I can't look at it either. Whenever I get sentimental to DH he always says " just think of all the fun things you can do with him as he gets older." It helps a little but it's still Super sad!

I think I'm going through a mini-depression anticipating Max's birthday. This year was really hard and I didn't think I'd be sentimental about it ending, but the emotions are hitting me more strongly than I expected.

And, I can't believe I'm saying this...I'm surprised to find that I kind of want another one.

I write my kids a letter around their birthday every year. I like to include any milestones, vacations or just cute little things that they did at that age. I keep notes on them in my phone throughout the year to help me remember when it comes to letter writing time. And then I spend an hour crying hysterically while I write it.

She is laying on my chest taking a nap and I'm getting irrationally weepy. I honestly lay awake at night and can't sleep because I get anxiety about it. I am so not ready for this lol. I was looking at the pictures from when she was born last night and I just could not believe it. I took the advice and tried to savor every moment, but it still went by in the blink of an eye.

people actually go to the homepage? i haven't seen that place since the switch.

KellersPrag · August 2013

Thanks, guys. I just had to go to the home page to see how many days we have left. 35 over here.

I cheated and changed it to bean's due date. That way I can remain in denial.

Is there anyway to do two kids on those things? Or just the youngest kid?

I feel like DD's first year went even faster than with DS. I can't believe she's almost 1. I'm really taking this hard. I feel like it's the combo of both kids growing up too fast and me wondering if I'm doing the right thing regarding work/life craziness. I need a pause button.

MommaP12 · August 2013

12 days to go here. In total shock. I like that quote "the days are long but the years are short"

jenndub · August 2013

I just looked. 32 days. I need to go scream into a pillow now, I'm not ready for this.

I switched to part time back in April because I felt like working full time, I was missing too much. The hours I work are barely part time (30 hrs a week) and I wish I could work even less. I just regret that I was not able to stay home with her. I luckily did not miss any milestones, but still. If only money grew on trees.

I teared up reading these. LOL...I will be attending a 1st birthday party this weekend and it just reminds me of how soon DS will be 1. I miss watching him sleep all cuddled on my chest, and I miss the look of total bliss on his face when he would fall asleep with his last bottle of the night. He no longer takes a bottle at bedtime and, damn it I miss that. It felt like pregnancy lasted forever and this year has flown by. Dang it now I'm sad. No more thinking about this!
