On Easter and Pics!

 

 

 Holidays are always full of so much fun and so much stress. Of course I suppose it depends on whose house we are at when the statement is being said and which one of us is making the statement. 

After my entry last Friday things only got worse. My MIL went to the casino after she promised Samara was devistated. 

So going into this ahh tensions were higher in my mind alone.

There was a blow up between Travis and his sister over her brat kid, and dear my. I threatened to leave. I didn’t but wanted too. I am simply over the fighting, and I will not leave my kids there.

Samara had fun. She played, found a dead bird, and hunted easter eggs.

Samara and Caitlin, as you can see they are thrilled. The one in the turleneck is my MIl and the one in purple is Tish, the kids great Aunt.

In the back is Jon, Travis counsion Tish’s son. He has had a hard time with mental illness, but is finally out of the hospital and kinda stable, I am pretty happy with him. He is lucky his mom is still able to care for him. 

This is his sister, Melissa. and Arianna, The little one is getting cuter She reminds me of a Magic Nursery doll from when I was a kid, anyone remember those. Oh and this is Melissa smiling. 

This is Sarah with Kaylee, dad had the other twin. She is my other SIl her and I get along, and are in no way actually related by blood to any of the craziness. We are outsiders and yet in the middle. I enjoy her little girls, and she loves Sabastian. 

The girls sitting opening their eggs. They had fun playing.

After the eggs and such I nursed some, sat in silence, and descided to head home. Sabastian was fussy and getting ill from the animals out there, I left and got him some benadryl. I am sure I am not supposed ot give him it but he was struggling so bad with breathing I had to try something, so I gave him an 1/8 of a dose. It helped. I also couldn’t stand the comments on how skinny Sarah is and how fat I am. Really? I am normally comfortable in my body but theser people get to me.

Samara and Travis came home late that night. 

Sunday started with Church. Yes, I went to church. I miss having someone to go with me. I crave that so much. I crave having a relgious partner. Someone who loves god and understands him. But you know I went and I didn’t cry, and it was nice.

There is one of the preschool moms there in the nursery with sabastian. She loves babies. (she has 6) She always seems to want to talk to me, to say something more to me. Like she wants to be my friend, but seems afraid to scare me away. it is an odd feeling. She was so happy to have me there and made sure I knew it. 

We came home to find Travis mad we went. sigh… He hid in his room for hours. It is normal whenever I go to church.

I made a yummy brunch and then waited for 2 more hours for my family to show up. 

We ate, then did eggs.

It was windy but good.

 

side note here, it makes me sad my mom is becoming an old lady. It was 65 degrees outside and she was freezing.

My siblings helping look for eggs. I am not sure we found them all actually. But you know We will find out eventually right?

Cute baby men playing!

Random kiddo cuteness!

sorry you can see nipples here. 

Anyways, so after eggs and such we left the kids, and we went to the movies. Travis and I saw American Reunion. It was hilarious. Aside from the need to nurse it was a nice time. We didn’t talk exactly but we didn’t fight. We didn’t have kids, and we enjoyed a movie together. it is something right? The movie was great. Maybe because we are the same age as the characters, and in the same life place? It was still worht it. Not kid friendly thoguh.

We came home, I enjoyed Army Wives and then Mad Men. I am getting into it, and I like it. I love pale women with curves in it. 

And with that I need to eat dinner. On to the week. I am going to try and make it better than last week.

How old was Samara when you weaned her? I’m thinking about it but trying to even do that Don’t Offer/Don’t Deny has me feeding him a ton of the time. I’m sure some of it is just for comfort, but I’m so tired… Sat night, he just screamed and screamed for no reason… but that wasn’t nursing related. I offered it and he screamed. I had to hold him tightly and rock him rhythmically. *sigh*

RYN: I have to admit that I was getting frustrated, which I’m sure didn’t help matters. I just need to get some sleep. He slept okay yesterday, but I also had to give him a dose of Benadryl because he was having a time of it. Running around in the dark and screaming (just to hear himself, I’d guess). I was afraid we’d get a complaint from management, so I was like- For the love of God, sleep.

I totally remember Magic Nursery Babies- I had two! 🙂 What is sad is, I may actually still have them.
