Five Weeks

So it's five weeks till the baby's due date. I hit the nesting time again. And things are looking pretty clean around here! LOL
Faith has new curtains and a new rug. The odd stack of boxes that was by our door is gone. And the myriad of dog papers Dustin had scattered all over his area of the office is now out of sight, if not organized. Of course, Dustin notices nothing unless I point it out to him and he hasn't noticed the latest thing I did today yet. He's been home for two hours.

And now the little angel who refused to eat her kunch and tried her best not to take a nap and when she did, slept for only thirty minutes, is now throwing a fit peppered with 'mama' s because 'mama' took her cell phone away and put it up. Horrible mama!

My temper is increasingly shorter as the days go on.

Legality

Passing the driving test was one of the hardest things I've ever done. It was actually scarier than childbirth with Faith. Mostly because the woman testing me was intimidating as all get out. She was the same one who failed me twice two years ago. I was POSITIVE she was going to fail me again. But she says, "well, you passed your driving test", etc, and I quit listening. Way to make my birthday!
2-4 weeks and I will have the real thing not just the temporary. Can't wait!

My birthday, beyond passing the test, was actually pretty great. Dustin and I went to TGI Fridays and a movie while LaJuana, Kathy and the kids watched Faith. Have you ever been craving something and not quite sure what it is and you keep trying different things to figure out what it is you want? Well, I have ben craving red meat. So at TGI Fridays, I ordered the petite sirloin and mashed potatoes - they have amazing mashed potatoes - and the first bite was so divine. It was exactly - EXACTLY - what I have been craving. So perfect! I believe that if you can't get excited about your food than there's no point in eating well. You may as well eat one thing all the time. It won't matter to you anyway.

Anyway, I'm doing okay today except for the little craziness with Faith earlier. She scared herself playing in the closet, and cried a little bit. So, being a good mommy and not wanting her to do it again, I very gently and sweetly helped her out of her situation and set her on the floor outside the closet. And she promptly began screaming at the top of her lungs. Like I had killed her or something. She has started this ridiculous fit-throwing thing. She doesn't even have the timing for it to make sense as a fit. She just waits for a few minutes, kind of fussing, and then, THEN, she flips out. Completely. I have no idea what to do about it. It's the perfect button to push for complete and utter frustration in Mommy.

Anyway, later, gators. Have a good day!

Friday the 13th

Personally, I think it's a lucky day. For Dustin, anyway. LOL

I'll be 23 years old and a mother of one and a half. Wow. I've been married for nearly five years, in a relationship for almost six, and with the same wonderful, annoying man who fathered both children, one of whom is standing up by her toybox, making a moaning/yelling sound. Like a wacko. LOL

50 days to go to the due date of baby #2. I am so tired of being pregnant. They don't tell you when you're thinking and wanting a baby that it's not all sweet thoughts and glowing feelings when your pregnant. Don't get me wrong, there are those things. Then there are the lovely, LOVELY side effects, like nausea, gas, heartburn, pain in weird parts of your body that have NEVER hurt before. Then the muscles get stretched which, let me tell you, is freaking awesome. Plus, your grumpy half the time and no one can do anything to fix it for you. It's actually not fun to be grumpy all the time, despite how it may seem to others.

Friday, we're going out to eat, just me and Dustin. LaJuana's keeping Faith for us. Plus, I'm taking the driver's test that day, too. Which, I'm afraid I'll fail. I just want to pass the stupid thing so I never, ever have to do it again.


I definitely think it has to do with how close they are going to be. With time, I would have been more healed inside than I am. Plus, I don't think I got to get over the hormones from Faith either. So it was kind of wonky anyway
