I'm trying to change your diaper!

As many mommies know once your baby starts moving and rolling around it's increasingly difficult to change their diapers. Last night it took both Shawn and me to get Maverick's PJs on. Here's what happened this afternoon when my family came with the baby on my lunch break.

I got in the car and I smelled poop. So once my sister drove to Starbucks and my dad and I went in and picked up the order I laid Maverick down on my sister's car seat to change his diaper. He definitely pooped. He gave me protest to lay down because now he hates laying down and when I got his diaper off he was trying to sit up again. I managed to get him wiped down and I wrangled the diaper on him and than I found out we had to change his onesie because there was poop on that. My sister and I got his onesie off and got another one and while we were doing that he managed to grab the wipes, opened the container, and started eating a wipe. I tried to get it out of his mouth and he bit me. After my dad and my sister played tug of war with his mouth my sister managed to open his mouth and get the wipe out. So after a mini work out and a comical debacle Mav was freshly changed with a new onesie. I have a feeling this diaper changing is going to get worse when he can walk.

My new days "off"

When you're a mom there are no days off anymore. I'll give you an example of how my current days "off" go when I'm home with my infant. I'm writing about March 12, 2017 because it's pretty recent and I can sort of remember what happened. I woke up with the baby around 10 AM. He wakes up during the night but since I'm still co-sleeping with him most of the time I'm just shoving my boob in his face when he cries, he drinks a little and goes back to sleep. When I'm off work on days I can co-sleep in with him he usually doesn't really wake up until anywhere past 8 AM. If we weren't co-sleeping I'd probably be up at 5 or 6 (There's usually an occasional day off where I'm still up at 5 or 6 with him). I had plans to take Mav to visit my friend Janell. I texted her to tell her we were awake and we'd leave as soon as we were both dressed and had breakfast. You're probably thinking how long does it take two people to get dr...

Conflicting emotions

As a mom I have many conflicting emotions. I love going to work because it's usually a "break" I'm guaranteed 5 days a week at the same time I feel bad I'm not there to take care of my son. I get frustrated and upset at how hard it really is to be a mom and how much self sacrifice it takes and at the same time I feel bad for complaining because I am lucky enough to have a baby when many women aren't. I also feel like I'm being selfish every time I bitch about how hard it is. I feel upset when I don't think my husband understands how hard it is but at the same time I appreciate what he does to make my life easier and his attempts to make things go smoothly for me at times. I feel guilty if I get frustrated and upset that my son might end up feeling some of my anxiety while I'm trying to do my best to care for him and get both of us where we need to be at times. I'm also constantly worrying about being a good mother to him.  What conf...
