Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya, tomorrow...

...you're only a day away!!!!

Me? Excited about DH coming home? Nope not at all what gave you that idea? ;)

I have been trying to attempt to write a blog all week, but honestly it would have mostly consisted of:

*SOB* DH come home!
I need sleep!
Yay cloth diapers!
I need sleep!
*SOB* DH come home!

The reasons for my lack of sleep
Cute huh? ;)

Needless to say, basically just whining. Today, however, I feel invigorated enough to write a post because frankly I've actually missed writing them. Go figure. Also I'm very excited that in one more sleep I get to drive to the city and pick up my husband!!! Yay for returning to double parenting!! I do NOT know how you single parents do this...I don't...five days is about ready to put me in an asylum. My house looks like a bomb hit it, the bags under my eyes are deep and dark and I can't remember the last time I actually had a meal that wasn't just toast. However, both kids are clean, fed and pretty happy so I suppose that's a win. lol

So just for fun this is really how my week went. My wonderful in-laws let me hang out at their place so someone else could hold my baby, I could play with my daughter AND I could have intelligent adult conversation. I also got to go on a play date yesterday which helped to tire my kids out. Last night was the best sleep all week, don't start clapping yet, it was still crap...but it was better than the other nights. No child screamed and cried and neither did I.

Making chalk drawing look good! :)

See, great night. DS still got up four times and DD got up twice (different from her brother of course) so mommy didn't sleep much...but over all we're doing pretty good. :) See I'm trying to be optimistic, it helps keep me in a better mood so I don't snap at DD all day, the poor girl gets the brunt of mommy overtired and that's not fair. So if I'm in an optimistic mind frame the mood stays up and the overtired stays down. Win/Win :)

Yesterday was gorgeous outside so I put DS in the wrap and let DD play outside. She loves to take chalk and draw on the driveway, lucky for us we have a huge driveway. This pic still blows me away I just called her, she looked up and there you have it absolutely gorgeous child drawing on the driveway. I look at this picture and think DH is going to have to keep weight lifting to intimidate any boy who even THINKS about asking my beauty out! Honestly how gorgeous is she in this picture? *shakes head* Oh man I'm gonna have issues when boys start looking at her. Forget DH I'm going to be one intimating mama!!

Nice lookin' diapers hey? 

So as I mentioned above I've started cloth diapering. I got my diapers (fluffy mail) on Tuesday and it really did save my sanity that day. I was soo tired and sad that getting the mail was my highlight! I was so excited to get them and start trying them out. I was texting my friend to give me specific instructions on how I should prep them and everything. It took a whole day of washing to get them prepped so I couldn't put them on DS until the next day.

We started off the day in the olive coloured diaper and by the end of the day we'd used three covers...not bad if I do say so myself. I think I have some really fun solid colours so believe me I can't WAIT to get some prints. My kid's bum is going to be so tricked out it's ridiculous.

Yeah I'm wearing cloth and I am cool!

Also ridiculous, how stinkin' cute he looks in them! They really do showcase his cute baby blubber don't they? Look at the chub on that little boy! He was three months old yesterday and I weighed him at a friend's place he's almost 16 pounds! (I was a pound off the other day in my estimation, however it still stands that this kid is a chunky monkey!) The covers he's wearing apparently go from 15-38 pounds so I'll get some good use out of them. That doesn't mean I don't need to buy more, because PRINTS...I am sooo addicted to fluffy mail it's kind of insane. My poor DH is going to have to curb my spending or DS's blinging behind is going to be the reason we're eating Kraft Dinner for a month...LOL

Anyway we have survived this week and after one more sleep we will be able to have our family together again. I hear hints that DH might have to go on a THREE WEEK business trip in the new year. If that happens I think his company owes me some online shopping money. If they give me that then maybe I'll let them have my husband for that long...or even better just let us come with him! Anyway the weekend is almost here and my hubby is almost home...all kinds of yay going on there. :)
