I'm So Tired!!



I forgot that having a newborn is so tiring! Not that it isn't worth every second but the fact remains that my body is exhausted. The physical exhaustion added to the hormone changes in my body make me very emotional. I feel like a big cry baby half the time. Some things seem warranted while others seem trivial. I went out to my mothers grave the other day and as I was talking to Jack about her I started thinking about how much fun he would had with her now which in turn started lots of crying. I cant even tell you how much she loved her grand children, she would have SO much fun with them at this age. Its not really fair that they don't get to see how much she treasured them or that they don't get to be spoiled by her. My mom would have given a stranger the shirt off her back, can you imagine what she was like with her grandchildren. Anyway, sorry I got side tracked. Oh yah, I was babbling about my emotions. All I'm saying is when you have to fight back tears during "March of the Penguins" you know your a little over emotional! Its a documentary about Penguins for cryin out loud! That's just Silly! :)
Moving on.....Levi and Beth went home a few days ago (I cried about that to) and everything is getting back to normal. I am in the midst of planning JAcks 3rd birthday party but other than that its pretty non eventful. I posted a couple pictures. One is of Asher and the other is Daniel and I at my Co. Christmas party. I think it was like 4 days before Asher was born. Sorry my post was so random and scattered.

Sara, I love that you are scattered! Thank you for the pictures and taking the time to keep us far away folks involved in your life even in the smallest way. Your mother is one of the most amazing women I know. Her heart and life lives on in each one of us she touched and loved. I know how much she loved her grandchildren and CHILDREN. She loved you so much, Sara! Ok..I'm crying now!!! DOH! I've been a bit emotional myself lately. My two best friends here are moving away. Carrie moved to the UK last saturday and Sheri, Joshua, her mom and dad are moving to Atlanta in a day and half. It's a little heart wrenching around here. Asher is adorable and oh how much I wish I could just love on him and Jack and let you and Daniel go to a nice dinner and movie. I love you sweety! Take care of yourself and keep resting.

Bunny I started to get emotional in "March of the Penguins"...and I haven't even seen the whole thing! No worries. It just means our kids will be sensitive in a good way.

Chie..I loved your comment about the Scientologists beliefs about depression! BTW Tom Cruise is a fruitcake! I've had 3 kids and I know for a fact that changing hormone levels can lead to post-partum depression!

Sara, hang in there! All your friends are here if you need to talk, take Jack if you need to sleep or help in any way! (Right guys?)And Jen's right..at least right now you have an excuse...take advantage!:)

Annette said...
