i feel like mr. sam sleeps more than the average baby. i'm always thinking 'when are you gonna get up and play?' i'v noticed that motherhood is extremely lonely. i'm at home all day by myself with a baby that is sleeping his life away! it's pretty hard to get out because samuel will NOT sleep in his car seat and needs his crib. i could go out, but then i just pay for it later with a cranky baby. BUT, when he's up... we play and play and play. he's getting so fun:) although, i think i've created a baby monster because if he's by himself he starts crying... what have i done. so, now we're working on having alone play time for 10-15 minutes. he cries for a couple of minutes and then eventually realizes that it's not that bad.
lately i've had these moments of missing being pregnant. it's incredibly strange! like my body is telling me 'have more babies', but my realistic brain is like 'are you kidding?' don't get me wrong i want a lot, but i'd like to actually fit in my normal pants before i have to go back in the trash bag looking clothes again... wow, as i say that it sounds totally vain..lol. ah well. just a little break can't hurt no one:)
sorry for this boring post! i can't think of what the heck i blogged about before... probably other boring stuff!
