Slacker....

So, I have not updated in a long while. I have been tiiiiired. Seriously, with Cam on the move (she is 30 seconds away from walking) and all the other dramz the insiders know about, I just haven't had the mental capacity to blog. Which leads me to my next point. This blog will still remain mostly about the kiddos, but I also need an outlet. So, insiders, if you can't handle the truth, the exit doors are there, there, and down the hall to your left.

I have reason to believe I have been suffering from a little Post Partum Depression since Cam was about 6 weeks old or so. I was, however, in denial because I didn't want to admit that a repeat of Ethan's first year was happening. So, here I am with the mental capabilities of a 2 year old because I expected far too much out of myself, refused to get help, and want to do nothing but curl into the fetal position and rock. I mean, I am doing a lot better than I was previously, and am by no means in any danger, but I have had a serious case of down in the dumpers. I guess just FYI.

My daughter is a hurricane. We call her Hurricane Cam. Honest to God, she is actually driving me crazy. Have I mentioned how much I love Xanax lately? I forgot that babies learning to walk gives me a serious panic attack. Literally, she tries to walk as I try not to hyperventilate. She gets around pretty good though, mostly to destroy my house. She is also starting to talk, No Dada! has been her favorite so far, followed closely by her following me uttering mama over and over again sounding Oh So Pitiful. She has already mastered the whine ladies and gentlemen, and at only 9 months old! We have a winner.

Ethan has an unnatural obsession with Austin Powers and all that goes along with it, thanks to his Sperm Donors parents letting him watch that movie. Can I please tell you how hard it is to keep a straight face when you are in the middle of disciplining a 5 year old and he cocks his eyebrow, looks you dead in the eye, and goes "Riiiiggghhhttt". In a dead on Dr. Evil. Oy vey. This child. These children. Someone please tell me I will survive this motherhood thing. And all my buddies with only 1 baby under 2? Please please please quit giving me advice! You know nothing of what lies ahead.

Which brings me to my next topic. People with no children who think they know EVERYthing about raising them. Especially mine. I know you people mean well, but you have no freaking clue what the hell you are talking about. I know Cameron is pulling her ear. She has done that since she was two weeks old. No she doesn't have an ear infection. Yes I am sure. Ya ya okay, I will take her to the Dr. and waste my money to make YOU feel better. Better yet is the people with no kids who tell you how to discipline your children. I will save that rant for another day. Must go find pictures to update you with.
