OMG.. my mom just sent me a text message that said " I am so excited, I get to shovel the driveway..." really???
Sooo it just sucks that i get on facebook and i see people pictures of friends taking there kids on walks or they can carry there babies outside to like Target or something. While here in Wisconsin we are jumping from building to building with Taylor in her car seat covered in blankets... only to rush inside of a building. I totally understand why people who living in this crazy state is outside from april-sept enjoying every min of the sun... which i don't think it gets hotter then 85 here anyways... depressing. Only for the snow to start up again in October... ugh.. ALRIGHT so that was my venting about the cold temps...
Taylor has been super moody the past few days, and i think its because she has Cabin Fever... she just has been cooped up in this house so long that its starting to get to her... haha J/K... but really i don't know what her problem is.. she is not napping that well which means she is crying and wining because she is super tired... so finally its almost 5pm and she is taking her 2nd nap of the day, which her first one was 30 min... so hoping she wakes ups more cheerful! As i had Taylor wrapped up in her princess blanket, on my shoulder just listening to her breathe (finally asleep) i didn't want to set her down because i was afraid she was going to wake up... of course i laid her down eventually and she stayed asleep... but as i was sitting there on our rocker/glider i couldn't help to think of what would i have done if i did not have this rocker???? There are a lot of things that babies do not need... but a rocker is one thing that you absolutely need!! All babies are different but a few things that Taylor could not live without, other than the basic necessities.... are a rocker, diaper genie (omg i couldn't imagine not having one of these, ew gross), Swing or Bouncy seat (you can't hold your baby all day!), her play gym, baby monitor, her boppy... they are good for feeding and she slept in it too...a few things that brandon and I could live with out would be the HUGE stroller/car seat travel system... we didn't do our research so i got my mom to buy this huge Eddie Bauer Travel system... which the stroller is so big that we have to perfectly aline the tires and stroller to shut the trunk of my car... or it won't close... and the car seat is super heavy 10 pounds... yes i put the car seat on my scale... Taylor is like 14 pounds so that is carrying 24 pounds on your arm where ever you need to go... if brandon and i have another kid... we are going to do our research a little better... but she has an awesome stroller for Disney Land one day! HAHA. Another thing i could do without is my 2-door car, I'm not even going to get into that conversation...
ohh noo the princess is awake... she was only asleep for like 20 min.... :( maybe she will sleep ALL night considering she hasn't slept all day!
I feel like blogs are such a great place to get your feelings out! And your venting... is so sweet. Haha. How about just going to the mall and using that stroller to just wander around? That's what I used to do! It kept my sanity... if I had to actually be a "stay" at home mom... and STAY At home - I'd die. :)
ReplyDeleteWith the snow here today, I can see why getting a baby in and out of a 2 door car in the freezing cold would be such a pain though! My heart goes out to you girl! :) xoxo
That is about all we do is go to the mall... because its the only warm place... and as soon as the stroller stops rolling. she starts to scream so its hard to actually "shop" she just hates that car seat... i can't wait to put her in just a stroller so she can be more aware of what is going on ;)
