This past weekend was certainly trying with the absence of the Padre. Thank God for my mom and brother, who came over every day and hang out and help with Max. Its amazing how much work I was able to get done this past weekend. Cleaning, vacuuming, laundry....all that fun stuff! I was so relieved last night when I sat down and thought of all that I had accomplished that day. The accomplishments of the day, matched with a glass of Nigori sake - and I was in heaven. Thanks to Grandma Bootsie for helping me out by watching Max. Sorry he Shat on you :)
Danny got back last night (after having been gone since Thursday) and he was astonished how much Max had "grown" in that short amount of time. He said that his face was filling out (maybe because the little guy EATS all the TIME!) and his neck is getting very strong, thus no more "infant floppy head"
One thing I have really noticed lately is how much I've been "standing out" for the past year. I feel as if I can no longer just blend into the crowd. For those of you who know me, I am a definite extrovert - but I do have a little bit of a shy side with the public. Maybe I'm just not use to all the extra attention I've been receiving from strangers. If you think about it, I was pregnant - thus people stared at me and strangers offered advice while trying to touch my growing belly. Now with a child, I still feel like people stare and offer advice while adoring "His Highness" :) At least they aren't trying to touch me anymore.
I lay in bed at night and think about all the things I want to discuss in this here blog - and I come up with some great stuff - but when I actually have the time to sit down and blog, I feel as though my well is dry. I guess I understand what women mean by saying they have "mommy brain." First it was "Pregnancy Brain" (forgetful, can't remember shit) and now its "mommybrain" (worn out and exhausted, trying to do 10,000 things at once - while only successfully completing one thing) Wonder whats next...
MM out
