So... as most of you read yesterday was my anniversary, and let me tell you, alot has changed from the first anniversary to the 7th. For example, the first anniversary there are usually no little ones, so you get your nails done, hair done, find something fancy before and after dinner (if you know what I mean). Usually your out on the town to a fancy restaurant and life is pretty much good.
Now let me describe to you yesterdays blessed events. I didn't actually bother to get dressed, thou not a lot fits anyways when you are 10 days from having a baby. My hair was "day old" hair, but umphed a little with some hairspray. I did manage to get mascara on, but not much else, my toe nail polish is probably 2 months old, and I think my shirt was stained. David came home from school and had broken out in hives, or allergies (were not sure yet) so after picking up Keagan from school he headed to the Dr's office, and he was there until about 6:30. So romantic... It gets better. Being that it's FHE and in the Mormon world that translates to "you are never going to find a sitter" I MADE dinner for the kids and I and cleaned the house until the kids went to bed. David rolled in after the chaos was to a minimum then took 2 benadryl to help the itching and then I went to bed... and David passed out on the couch after the Benadryl kicked in.
While all of this was going on yesterday, and while David was at the Dr. I suddenly realized I AM CRAZY to be having a third when it's almost impossible to handle the two year old that I already have.... So add emotional breakdown to the days events. And I wonder why I am so tired lately. Then to top it all off Riley was up 80% of the night, to figure out THIS MORNING that Tylenol could have helped his fever, that I didn't realize he had. So anyhoo..... I guess the point of all of this is to realize A] I am not newly married and B] life doesn't stop and turn blissful because it's your anniversary.

Sorry it was such a bummer :) Here's hoping you can find a sitter next year who can take on three!
HOORAY THAT MONDAY IS OVER! That's nothing compared to me just being locked out. Way to go for hangin' in there.
Just think of it this way - no matter what else happened, being 10 days from having a baby was going to limit the romance anyway :)
Anniversaries definitely change when you have kiddos - hope you get a chance to go out at some point, even if it's late.
I know what you meen but I am only on my third year! YIKES! So, by then I should pray he shows up back at home? HAHAHHA! JK> i hope your tuesday was better and Good luck with the rest of your 10 days! lOVE YA!
Barb...So what am I here for....to watch your kids...I'm a Mom I can do it....So therefore you should have called me...So do you want me to watch them tonight?!?!? Because I will and my kids would love it...HELLLOOOO! And when baby #3 comes (crazy women) I will still watch them :)
Barb I am so sorry your anniversary was so hard. Our first one was not even very good. I had just had Trenton and so therefore we did nothing. Hope next year will be better. Good luck in the next few days with your new baby to come.
so this is Chris,
Looks I have a lot to look forward too.
I have a question for Dave. I was wondering how his sciences at NAU differ from MCC, and if he took 152 from Farah or if that was at NAU.
Thanks
Just be glad you didn't have to wear a "fancy" outfit to bed... Thinking of having to do that duty... AHHH EXHAUSTING and a little grose!... for me at least! Don't worry you'll handle three and you'll start to feel better! Lemme know if there is anything i can do for you! Start walking, maybe you can get that baby out sooner! Worse comes to worse i heard canola oil stuff works!
Good luck! I'm in the SAME BOAT!
You had a great anniversary--wild, woolley thereby proving that your love is the "real" kind, and can handle this sort of stuff.
You'll be a great mom of three, so don't worry about that, but it is an adjustment. Like I always say, leave yourself some space in your life to flex.
love,
Mom
