It's been over a month

since I last posted and even then it wasn't much of a post. This pregnancy is proving to be quite the blog crasher. It's probably a good thing for all of you that I haven't been trying to post lots of lame crap just to post. The things consuming my thoughts as of late are nothing anyone in their right mind would want to read. Mostly things about me having lots of contractions, losing my independence, not being able to take care of regular every day things (good meals, playing with BL, cleaning), and trying to avoid bed rest so I can still somewhat take care of BL.

It was so easy being on bed rest when I was pregnant with BL. Sit in bed all day, read books, watch movies, do word puzzles. No problem. I could take a wild trip to the store every now and then because if I overdid it I could always just go home and be horizontal for a while and things would settle down. I can't afford to be on full bed rest this time.



I'm trying hard to be a good mom but it's proving difficult right now. He knows he doesn't have to push very hard to get his way or for me to go bazerko. He does it quite often. I am so thankful for BW because he's keeping me sane right now and holding our little family together. The past couple of days when I'm just on my last ounce of patience he's been there to save the day. I'm reminded every day of what a great man he is. I also have some awesome visiting teachers that just brought me groceries and are willing to take BL whenever I need. It's been kind of a hard thing for me to ask someone to take him when I don't have anything I need to do but lay around. It's odd. I'm glad both of them have been on bed rest and totally get it.

Look forward to a less whiney update in pictures. Soon to come.

I had the same problem when I was pregnant with Julia. I basically decided that I was only going to be a bad mother for 9 months and it wouldn't cause lifetime scars. She made it through fine and I had way less guilt.

Becca is right. Plus BL will forgive you because you're making a playmate for him. Yay for little siblings!

Thank you BW for taking care of my baby sister. And thank goodness for awesome VTs.
