I honestly thought I had pretended to want to write here before April of last year. I still had a job then. Wow.
Well obviously a lot has happened so I'm just going to move forward.
Ronnie's work is running some kind of "Biggest Loser" contest. So he is signing himself up and "we can do it together. it will be easier as a team" (straight quote from text message he sent me because he isn't THAT dumb, would probably not say that to my face although he did want to buy me a jogging stroller for VALENTINE'S DAY so I could get out of the house and get some exercise because I am still squishy...I chose him). Although I am still exclusively breastfeeding the baby so I have to consume extra calories while Ronnie's body is his to do whatever the hell he wants. Just sayin. Not really fair. Obviously I must win.
Ruby is in preschool 3 mornings a week now. She loves it. I love how the stuff she learns at school is working its way into her regular vernacular. Like she was telling me tonight "mmmmm (while rubbing her belly) Miss Ally says that's the letter p!" Nice try. Last Thursday when I dropped her off, she saw her teacher and ran screaming with glee to her. Clapping and jumping and everything. She's happy. So I have more time to blog!
I wish. Sebastian has been such the 4-month-old baby lately. He wants to bite everything, drool on everything, be held up high and walked around the house like fucking Simba. And now he won't stay asleep. Naps, nighttime, sleeps for like 90 seconds at a time. Unless he's in the babybjorn and I'm walking around Fred Meyer for an hour. I know he's getting enough to eat, he doesn't have fevers or anything, no ear infection...he just wants to be cuddled constantly I JUST WANT MY LIFE BACK. It's okay. It just reminds me of all the sleeping problems Ruby had as a baby (basically every single sleeping problem possible) and I'm worrying and dreading and scared.
I should probably go to sleep because Sebastian will be waking up soon. Or not! Everyone knows once any parent posts anything about their child's behavior on the Internet, the opposite behavior presents itself. So yes. I think Sebastian is going to keep me up all night. No sleep whatsoever.
I have missed you.
