April 10, 2012 - The things I don't Enjoy

I spend a lot of time posting adorable photos and talking about all the great things that have been happening in our family this year. Well today was one of those days when I would have rather been anywhere but at home with the Baby and the other kids.
The Baby is on a sleeping strike, unless of course he is riding in the car. Which makes it hard to get anything done in the house. I wasn't trying to get anything difficult done today, just plain things like cook, laundry and go to the bathroom. He is exhausted but won't go to sleep.

Today he is extra spitty. He has thrown up on me and wiped his meals all over me. I can't even change my clothes if I wanted to bother because all my clothes are in the laundry and I can't wash them because he won't sleep.

Now I know you are thinking, just put him down for a bit and do the laundry after all he loves his Exersaucer! Yes he does love his Exersaucer as long as I am in the room with him!

The older kids aren't listening to anything that I say and I am constantly going around the house a cleaning the same things over and over again. At the end of the day when I sit down in the family room I just want to relax instead I sit down in a room full of toys and garbage. I catch myself yelling alot at the older kids, it is not how I envisioned being a mommy.

The Baby is cute and all, but he grabs my face and that is really annoying. His latest habit includes grabbing my nipple while I am breastfeeding which is painful!

The Girl NEVER puts garbage in the garbage bin. I don't know how else to help he remember to do that!

Often today the Baby would get into these frenzies, where he can't be consoled.  I try to put him in my lap and he doesn't bend at the waist.  Tonight at bedtime, he was tired, but when the Husband put him down he only slept for 5 minutes.  I managed to get him down, but not until about 10pm, and by this time I am so tired that all I can do is sleep.

Today`s photo shows Baby in his new Easter pajamas from his Godmother.   He looks so adorable in them, the shirt says `Mommy`s Jelly Bean`.  So cute...annoying today...but still cute!
