I just lined up 8 years worth of New Years photos of me and hubs. And wow the last two years have not been kind to us. We look SO youthful and skinny in the first photo. In the last photo we look fat and barely awake. Damn pandemic and baby ๐.
In a true demonstration of how being a mom teaches me flexibility: baby boy peed all over his matching family Christmas pajamas. And now heโs just opening gifts in his diaper ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐๐๐ถ๐ผ
Baby has been whining for almost an hour bc he is overtired. Finally get his cranky ass to bed and he decides itโs the perfect time to practice blowing raspberries and making fart noises. Heโs driving me insane.
8 days until i get to be home with my family and have some actual help with this baby. I can make it 8 days. ***Cries and Repeats over and over for 8 days.

@This_IsOurStory Iโm feeling these tweets tonight. Itโs so damn hard and lonely and sometimes I feel like hubs just lives in freaking la la land about ALL of it.
I miss doing things I enjoy. I miss feeling like myself. I miss dates. I miss being connected with my husband. I wish I had any kind of support system here. I need friends. I need family. And I need an occasional freaking babysitter. I am literally with this baby ALL the time.
Hubs and I have not been out to eat in forever. And itโs one of my favorite things. I told him I wanted to go this weekend. So I planned everything to try to make it as smooth as possible with baby. And he was terrible. And i feel so damn discouraged.
Baby boy is giving me a super hard time tonight. And just when i thought I was going to cry from frustration and sleep deprivation at 2am, the little jerk bit the hell out of my nipple. ๐๐๐๐ซ๐ญ
I would kill to have family close by right now. Or to have any real friends here. Iโm so so exhausted with the baby and hubs and I desperately need a date night. Itโs been hard.
@MamaNeedsA_Book @ChickfilA Thank you for this reminder as i inadvertently ate peppermint without thinking about my supply! Gonna pay attention the rest of the holiday season
