I miss my kids today....

I miss my kids today while I sit here at work!! :( So this is for me...

Busy Weekend!

It was definitely a busy weekend, but nice! The kids and I were outside alot, and it felt soooo good! I can tell that I am getting in to my nesting period before the baby comes, but it is not focused in the right areas. For instance. This weekend I cleaned both of our vehicles, inside and out. I re-raked the yard, basically meaning I moved piles around that I had raked a week earlier because I am waiting for my dear sweet husband to pick them up to load in to the truck to take to his parents house. Which I might add is just across the street (yes, little "Everybody Loves Raymond" type feel, but I do love my in-laws)! I've picked up sticks, pulled weeds and brushed the dog. I have not, however, done much with the nursery!!!! I did get one small task started, not finished, and that was moving most of Halloran's clothes out of the nursery in to her and Brady's room. But she still has many lingering items in her old room! I still have to convince my husband to go und...

Give me your thoughts mamas!

So with my first two children, I breastfed them until I went back to work (approx. 2 months) later, and felt pretty good about that! My work environment at the time wasn't a very private enough place to do the whole pumping thing there, and we couldn't take breaks off of campus. But now where I work, I've scoped out a place or two where I could pump and it would be quiet and private. So. My goal is to nurse my last little bundle of joy for at least 8 months. Can I achieve this? What about those of you who nursed to a year, anyone? What are the positives and negatives? It will be nice because I will be half bottle, half mommy. That was another thing I felt with nursing was that I couldn't have someone help, didn't have that free moment when something else needed to be done, I just felt very exhausted of my resources. So, I like the bottle because it gives other people some sweet bonding time with my child...especially daddy! So. It's just doing the pumping thing ...

Screen

So, I really need to start screen or filtering my emotions before I write them down I think! I am like a rollercoaster lately of emotions and it's killin' me! I mean yesterday I felt exactly the way I said I did in the morning, but by afternoon I was much better - maybe because of prayer. But I maybe should have waited to to vent until later, when I was more at ease instead of so glum. Don't you feel sorry for my hubby!! Anyway, I prayed alot yesterday and last night, and I think I'm getting myself undercontrol, reigning in those fiery horses of hormones, and trying to tap in to ME! Who is that anyway? For so long I have been the "pregnant girl"..."oh look, she's pregnant again"....You have a one year old, when are you due again??" I'm almost there though, almost will have myself back! But for now, I am going to enjoy the last baby brewing in my uterus, and please forgive the rollercoaster of emotions!! Although, I'm trying to stay m...

What to say

I am having an emotional morning, hormones I am assuming. I left for work and Brady started crying, I hugged him and he wouldn't let go, and I did not want to let go either. I've been late to work for the past 6 times I've had to come in, not by my own account...and that is totally frustrating. Then to top it off, my desk is bombarded with little yellow sticky notes, "Megan you are going here today....Megan, can you get this file out for me....Megan re-schedule our appointment for Wed. to Thurs..." I am totally irritated. The client I am now scheduled to see today that I did not have on my schedule before, is one that is my most challenging and the one I have the least amount of patience for. I can see her wheels turning each time I go in, on how to control her environment by being the nastiest, loudest and rudest client I have dealth with in a long time. I try to think of her past, take in to consideration her disability, but it's just not working. Seriousl...
