It’s been a long time since I’ve posted about what’s going on in my life, just a random update. I know you guys have been waiting with baited breath, it’s okay, you can exhale now
I guess I haven’t posted any kind of update or whatever in a while cause not much has been going on. I didn’t want to keep repeating the same thing over and over, I feel like a broken record.
What’s new:
-DS is crawling all over the place! Although I have to admit, I kinda liked it a lot better when he was stationary, made my job a bit easier. I’m terrified of when he starts walking. Instead of doing the full on knee crawling, he does the whole army man crawl, with his tummy still on the ground. But let me tell you, he can get anywhere he wants to go, and fast too.
-We got new carpet in the 2 bedrooms that needed it, and DH and a friend built a new deck off of our patio in the backyard. This is all in attempts to help sell our house. We had to take out a small loan to get it all done, there are other things we wanted to get done, but they haven’t panned out yet, doubtful they will. I’m trying to stay optimistic about it all, but it gets hard sometimes.
-Planning for DS’s first b-day. I made invites and I’m in the process of getting them all out. I cannot believe he’s almost a year old, it just can’t be. And sometimes it really doesn’t feel like it cause he’s still so tiny and a little behind the other babe’s his age. He’s not saying words yet, just sounds. I’m not fully worried, not yet. He is only 9 months adjusted, so he’s still playing catch up. But I do wonder sometimes if he should be doing more. But he’s so alert and nimble, and very happy and just all around in good spirits. I just don’t think about it much, and then I’ll read something about another babe doing something and I’ll think “L isn’t doing that yet, should he be?” But it’s not worried me enough to talk to his dr. Especially considering that she will stop adjusting his age at 1 year. I think that’s bull, everything I’ve read about preemies says that 2 years is when they usually stop adjusting, so I’m not going along with her. I think it’d be stupid to think a preemie is going to catch up in just the first year, and I’ll tell her that if she says crap about it at his check up.
-I’m trying to eat better (again). Which is hard cause I’m such a picky dumbass. And I’m totally craving something sweet as I type this. But I’m trying.
-I’ve taken a hiatus from my crafting biz. Not that it got very far anyways, but I loved doing it and I miss it greatly. That makes me very sad.
What’s not new:
-House is still not sold, no offers yet. I get really down and depressed about it sometimes. I want out of this place.
-DS is still the most beautiful creature on the planet. How he came from me I do not know.
-DH is still a keeper. Working hard on getting the house sold and doing more than his fair share with the babe. I’m way too lucky. I should remember this more often.
-HM is too addictive and I spend way too much time on it at work. But it’s the only thing keeping me from going completely batshit (heh, spell check tried changing that to bats hit), so it can’t be all bad.
Hope all you mamas are doing well, and that your lives aren’t nearly as boring as mine is.
I'm doing well...good to hear from you. I'm actually craving something sweet right now too...and I'm at work spending time here instead of what I should be doing which is planning.
I think it would have been funny if it would have come up bat hits on spell check...
keep on keepin' on mama!
