adiml: a mom of two boys

Mar 05, 2008 12:49

let me explain here// today is not a super typical day for events some of the things that happen .. i.e. to my car dont happen and have never happened.... and dang it i am so mad about it. so enjoy my day bc it is usually very dull and routine. I only work three days a week so this happens to be a day i work.

it all starts with the midnight feeding.. ethan goes to sleep usually at 930 and wakes around 1215am

.. this same routine of diaper changing and feedings is proceeded at 402 am and one at 752 am before i get out of bed.





// time check time to wake up.. ethan wants to play

//8:23 am//

// elijah decides to come crawl into bed with me ... since eric already left for work. so after i get woken up i decide to make a few videos ive been meaning to do... one is of ethan burping and chewing the other is a diaper trick i was hoping to share with my friend julia.

and then downstairs for food.








.. i was hungry too...

// he got tired .. i headed to the couch to nurse his to sleep.

he wants to watch dora first...
then he gets gas and well i have to messageit out.

we then attempt to take a shower with ethan in a bouncer and elijah in the shower too... so he doesnt go crazy with ethan.




all done ... time check .


 time for ethan to get changed.
and of course elijah as well.


 after ethans diaper change i realize its time for me to get ready for work.


after i get dressed we head downstaris to wash up the pump and pack it up to take with me.

.


 elijah decides he is a big boy.




//
we call grandma to see what time she is coming over it is getting late.
 i myspace before i go get my face and hair fixed.


.. ethan doesnt like that idea.. time for food...



.. after i go potty.. of course not alone.


 elijah jumps on the couch to catch diego while i nurse and wait for grandma.


... wait we hear the doorbell.. elijah an di run to the door. im running behind schedule.




 thank goodness she brought me a blow dryer.( she worked a graveyard shift and is coming over after 4 hrs of sleep. ).. i dont have one and hate them ... this is why .... fuzz ball head..

  .. i run upstaris to flat iron my hair... run out the door with 20 minutes to be at work and .. forget to give her a car seat.. elijah is running out the door to say good bye as i am backing out i break .. hit the side of my mirror on the driver side and bam... its gone...

i get out the car freaked out but then realize i didnt put the car emergency break on.. i drive a manual... and its rolling on my drive way.. i  jump in and stop it . pull at my hair and want to scream... what is with me today????....
my mom shouts at me to go to work and wear my seat belt and be safe if i m late, im late.

so i drive off and am still in shock at my car... here is the damage... im so mad about this.

// cover and mirror gone. yeah i have full coverage but my deductible is more than it costs to fixit... 500 bucks... erghh!!
im driving to work and notice its a nice day.. and head to the mall.




 i make it just in time.




 its been a couple of hours its now 335pm.. time to pump... off for a break...


break room mirror
the floor view and my pump  with some granola.


 thank god my boss understands and has a private break room no windows and a plug in.
afterwards i take their pictures and we continue learning how to sale por
( melissa.. manager) trait packages to the customer.

( other new girls hailey and lynda.. both in high school.. they think im so cool. for my age.. lol )
melissa takes on a tour of the main jcpennys break room.

hailey offers to buy me a dreamsicle.. we have ice vending machines for 50 cents.. score.. yeah!!!
 i play around when no one is looking and take a picture of a bear in front of our flower background...



time check after 2 hours more of training...


time for me to go home after i talk to melissa about my hours this and next week.
the next picture is me singing in the car. on the way home. 
i was a little nervous to go home and face my husband.. with the damage. i had to sing my nerves off.
here is a video of my drive home on the dashboard.

i get home and my mom switches spots with me so i can park int he driveway. she met me outside before i got out of the car. she and i head upstairs i felt like i was doing the walk of shame and hte grim reaper would be meeting me at the top of the stairs.

i made it upstairs with the words and this look... i cant describe it.. " i heard."

so he wasnt as mad but told me im so stupid.. much better than what i expected. i took that. no big deal he let it go with telling me that it would get fixed. he knew what to do.  level headed was much better. although i think he was saving the juicy stuff till my mom left... nope... i was ok. he went downstairs and saw it. it would cost 200 bucks to fix he said.
i was hungry and missing ethan so i grabbed my boy headed to the kitchen and found out my mom got pizza.
time on the microwave says 7:23pm

he apparently slept and didnt want to be fed booby juice in a bottle.. he had to tell me how it was by sucking on his hands and nudging my shirt.
.. we both ate... and joined eric and my mom on the couch to watch csi.


my sister and elijah were upstairs terrorizing the bedroom.




we played for a bit.
my mom and sister left and then i headed upstairs for bath time for ethan.
elijah and eric came along as well.




while elijah peed... before it was bed time and time to put on a pull up.


 eric got elijah ready for bed while i got ethan ready for bed.
"teamwork makes the dream work." erics gay quote!!




ethan got
his jammies on and so did momma rt after we gave brother a good night kiss.







i nurse ethan to sleep in his glider and ottoman

after i play a little i missed him.




 he is tired ....

he goexs to bed and momma heads downstairs to find daddy sneaking some tillamook marionberry pie ice cream with a spoon.




 i myspace a little, check email, and pay our rent over pay pal.  eric is nice enough to make me a bowl...






time check .. its getting late.


i leave the computer for some needed cuddle time on the couch. we watch disturbia on demand.


movie ends at 12am.. i head upstairs to get ethan and bring him to bed.. he wakes to nurse and we go to sleep.laying in bed together.

i hope you enjoyed my day....
