Age: 7.5mo
Milestones: sitting up on his own- from laying down to pulling himself up into a sitting position. he is also learning how to cruise along the couch!
Challenges: sleep. we have a few good days and then it goes to shit and on repeat... I know I should cry it out but I am hoping he figures it out. we are SO close some nights and then he is terrible and then good again, so IDK. im a chickenshit at hearing him cry
Funny/cute stories: so he learned how to sit up, so he was in his crib and yanked his mobile down so we had to lower the crib mattress!
How are you? today, tired. i got minimal sleep last night, like 4 total hours. longest stretch for 2 hours. otherwise, I'm good. I am sad sometimes when he gets SO happy to see our nanny- like the other day he was fussying and he reached out for HER to pick him up, even though I was right there and next to him. Kinda hits you in the gut. i *KNOW* it's a good thing he loves her so much, that makes me happy, but man it stings when he kind of ignores you b/c he's playing with her or he wants her to pick him up not you. #workingmomproblems...
Anything else? I developed baby fever over the weekend and it needs to go away, STAT. like I want another baby. I was 95% sure we were OAD, after our loss, PGAL was a total mindfuck, and my delivery/post delivery was not easy AT ALL (hemorrhaged, lots of pp pain, awful hemmies that I still deal with, etc), and I was just focused on having N and being happy with that. And suddenly, I want MOAR babies. Like, idk if it's because I see him getting so big, or what, but suddenly I want him to have a sibling. And I want it sooner rather than later. I always said *maybe* in like 5 years. but now I want them to be closer in age, which throws ALL our plans off - house wise, job wise, financially... it's like WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!?!?!?
QOTW: Is the Easter Bunny bringing anything for your little one this weekend?
No but he is bringing us lots of cadbury eggs b/c that is our favorite thing to eat lol
