What a week...

I am currently sitting in my living room on the couch watching "One Born Every Minute" on Lifetime. This is my "ah" time! This week has been crazy busy for me with work, Gavin and a few random other things that I will refrain from mentioning!

Softball takes up A LOT of Cody's time right now and my work is in the middle of "busy season". I think this week my emotions got the best of me a few times. I got really frustrated that I have so much work to do and not enough time in the day to do it. By the time I get off work and pick up Gavin I have maybe 2 hours of time to spend with him and then once he goes to bed I have to clean, get bottles ready and prepare for tomorrow. And for the third night this week - it's been without Cody here. And this weekend will also be the third weekend in a row without him here as well.So once again - frustrated and overwhelmed.

Watching this show also brings me several different emotions. For some reason I'm totally addicted. I cry every time a baby is born. Sometimes it's because I'm jealous that I didn't get to see Gavin be born but then I often shake my head when the women are moaning and yelling about how much it hurts when they are sitting in bed dilating...psh. No sympathy here. But - mostly I think I cry because of how awesome it is and what an incredible little boy I have! I say this and don't know how much I can say that I truly am okay with it and believe it...but everyone has a different story and in the end...if you have a healthy baby then you are really really lucky. So - here is my awesome miracle of life... 

Have I told you how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new camera?!? G and I were playing tonight before he went to bed. He kept trying to touch the camera...

He is getting SO close to walking. He can take about four or five steps towards me pretty good before falling into my chest and giving me the best hug ever. This kid definitely makes my day (and stress) go away when I get his amazing hugs.

Miss Pita - she loves Gavin and they play together already. She walked up to me when I was taking some pictures and gave me this look. Don't let her fool you - she is still VERY spoiled and loved.

Sorry if I was a "Debbie Downer" in my post. Sometimes you just have to find your outlet to let things go and when I decided to post tonight this is where it went. On the upside - I'm getting really excited about next weekend because I get some "me" time and get to go to a baby shower and see a bunch of high school friends. Yay!! :)
