Urg...

Wow things are getting harder and harder to do with every day. Even the simplest of things that use to take me 5 minutes to complete now take me hours. There are so many things I wish I could do but I have no energy to do anything right now. I was so spoiled in my first pregnancy because I just stayed home all day watching movies and waiting for Daniel to come home. I slept when I wanted to I ate when and what I wanted to and I felt pretty good. This time I have this cute little smiling face getting into trouble every 5 seconds and making so many messes by the time I clean one up I turn around to find at least 3 new major messes he so graciously created while I had my back turned. My last pregnancy I never really had the "I'm so ready to have this baby" feeling. I'm DEFINITELY feeling it right now!!
Don't get me wrong I love my little boys (both in and out) but boy oh boy am I tired! The other day Daniel, John, and I spent 6 hours at the hospital trying to figure out why I almost passed out a couple of times over the weekend. It was pretty ridiculous being there for 6 hours sitting in the hallway of the ER because they had too many people to even give me a room. Then they misdiagnosed me with a bladder infection (which I don't have) and told me they didn't know what was wrong with me and sent me on my way. Total waste of time!!
I was feeling pretty low the next day and sat on the couch trying to relax as my son tore apart the house and drove me crazy. We went grocery shopping and when we came home John managed to pull a gallon of juice off of the counter onto the floor where it split down the side and started spraying everywhere. I lost it and just started bawling my eyes out. I ended up going to bed at 8pm and didn't wake up until the next morning at 7am when I woke up screaming because of a charlie horse in my leg. It hurt so bad I was literally screaming and woke Daniel and John up. All day my leg has been sore but at least it didn't happen again. I know I should be complaining about my life because I really do have an amazing life and an amazing family I just sometimes start feeling a little too overwhelmed with things. Daniel was so sweet after the juice spilled and I went to bed crying my eyes out. He stayed up until the wee hours of the morning to clean up the mess so when I woke up and came through the damage created by John the night before was undetectable and the kitchen sparkled. He is the best husband in the world and I am so lucky that he puts up with all of my crazy pregnancy hormones and still treats me like a queen.

Well, that's all for tonight. Selamat Tidur!

I TOTALLY feel for you Brandy. I have been there not too long ago. It is so hard...complain away! Seriously, I know it is so overwhelming, especially with a toddler running you all over the place. don't expect too much from yourself. you need to be in survival mode now...so just as long as Mommy and boys are still alive, you have succeeded! hang in there girl! and you know what, it's okay to cry. :)
