Reality Mom - Reality Mom: My New Found Reality

Any Day Now!

November 21st 2011 22:58
So, I am due with baby #2 any day now! This pregnancy has gone by pretty slowly and I will be glad to finally get to meet the little guy. It seems like everyone has their own opinions on when they want him to come out. I am trying not to stress about it, but when you deliver around the holidays, it makes it harder on my husband and his job. But, we will make it work and we trust that God knows what is best for us.
Since we found out the gender of the baby this time, we decided to keep the name a surprise. Well, that has made my mother in law agitated. Every time we talk to her, she tries to figure it out. She even tries to get it out of my Sister in laws! I think she just needs to "approve it" and its eating her up inside that she can't do that. I know she hasn't been a big fan of my nieces' names, but she will just have to learn patience. Something that has been hard for her.
Anyways, I want to wish every one a happy and healthy Thanksgiving!

1 year and counting....

March 31st 2011 20:31
Wow, so the little guy has turned one. Well, actually, as of today he is 15 months (As you can see, I'm a little behind!). Not only is he one year old, but its a milestone for me too. My mom has always said that my birthday was a special day for her as well and I finally realize this now that I am a parent. It means for one whole year I have been a parent, doctor, caregiver, playmate, and diaper changer...among other things. Our lives have changed so much that I can't remember how things were before him. Well, maybe once in awhile...like when we want to watch a movie together or go to bed early. Its all about the little guy's schedule and that is ok with us. They do grow fast, so I am trying to enjoy every moment, even the bad ones.

So here's to another year of giggles, learning, more teeth, and seeing my son's face light up every time my husband chases him around the dining room table!

Trick or Treat...

November 5th 2010 23:56
So, this was our first Halloween with our 10 month old son. It was really fun! I thought I had scored a really good deal on a Yoda outfit I picked up at a school garage sale earlier this year, but it was too good to be true. When I tried it on my son, I noticed it did not fit correctly. So, being the internet investigator extroidinaire, I Googled "baby yoda costume". Well, it didn't look anything like the one I purchased. What did look like the one I had was a Yoda costume for a DOG!! Oh ok, this all makes sense now. I couldn't stop laughing. Then, I felt horrible for putting my son in a costume some strange dog had worn. So, we ended up going to "plan B"...a standby pumpkin outfit.

We then took my son to a few houses in our neighborhood. He had no idea what was going on, but he was a real trooper. We did get a lot of people saying we were only "trick or treating" for the candy, and well, yes, maybe!! I have to say, the Fall holidays are my favorite and are even more so now that we can enjoy them with our son.
