I'm too sexy for my clothes


God what a week last week was! Don't get me wrong, I love the munchkin to death but she was home a lot! The pink eye kept her out half of Wednesday and all day Thursday, then the daycare had Monday off for the holiday. That's a lot of time with the girl these days. I needed the break when she left for daycare today. I'm not ashamed to say it. Babies are a lot of work!

She's going through a really snuggly stage right now which is nice because she's never been really snuggly. But on the flip side of that coin, she's also very clingy - if i walk into the kitchen, the whining starts, even though i might be talking to her the whole time. This whole mom thing can be a challenge! I don't honestly know how people have more than one kid! lol

Sometimes I make myself feel better by watching Jon & Kate plus 8 (I think it's on TLC). They were the couple who had IVF and had twins. Then wanted another child (think ONE) and had sextuplets!!! OH.MY.GOD.NO. God obviously gave them to people who could handle them but I just could.not.do.it. They're amazing. Although I do feel a bit sorry for Jon because he can be quite hen pecked.

Ok, now that I'm talking about TV shows in my blog, I better go because it's only going downhill from here!

What were you saying? Oh, yeah... TV shows.

KIDDING!

She's a cutie and yes they ARE a handful. But the snuggles and smiles and "firsts" make it all worthwhile.

Now "8" of them? That's another story. I had a neighbor (and friend) who had 8 children. She was amazing! She had patience and time and love enough for all of them. One incredible lady. She and her husband were told they'd never have children. HA!

hugs to you, my friend.

She is such a pretty little girl!!

This is the second time I've heard about that show this week--I'm officially intrigued!

OMG, she is even more adorable! How is that possible???

I've seen that show. OH MY GOODNESS... I would rather adopt than do IVF. Those people are crazy.

Then again, you're one of the few that can turn babies and TV shows into compelling blog fodder.

Glad to hear you're surviving...and good to see that she remains as adorable as ever.

Look at her! She's a TODDLER! How did that happen? She was just a baby yesterday.

Babies are a lot of work and I'm so glad I had mine when I was 20.

The girl was only born a moment ago! She's suddenly big! Wow!

I admire you for being able to handle one. Eight? I'd be stuck in a corner, rocking back and forth.

At the part of "how do people have more than one" I started thinking about Jon and Kate plus 8 and you mentioned it!
I love that show! They're so cute! I think one would be too much for us also.
Can you imagine, my grandma had 13.

The cuteness overshadows everything else.

And she is a cutie.


Ummmmm.....eight?
