On my own

Tomorrow my husband starts working full time. He will be working from 7-5. This means from now on I will be doing all the feedings at night. I know that most women do all feedings for their child and then go on to do a full day, so I do consider myself very blessed that Peter has helped out this much so far. I get a little bit of anxiety when I think about all the sleep I will be missing out on, and I know when i hear him snoring away, all i'll want to do is wake him up! Enzo is a pretty good sleeper, but my only problem is myself! I have been able to feed him, burp, change and put him back to sleep all in 45 minutes, and then when i go back to bed i have the hardest time falling back asleep! It is so frustrating! I just hope tonight also starts when i can fall back asleep! Say a little prayer for me!

Too funny not to tell.

This post is to all the mothers out there and for those who want a little laugh. To some of you reading this it may be a little gross so be for-warned.
Here is a little back story. We recently decided to switch fully to formula and i have not been pumping out my milk as much as i was before. So it's feeding time for Mr. Enzo and I make him his bottle and start to feed him. He leaves behind a little over and ounce and usually he wants it after a few minutes, so brilliant me thinks..."Hey! I should just breast feed him the rest of what he wants, just so i can get some breast milk out" (My boobs have been hurting a little) So I put him to the breast and he has no idea what to do. So i get him going and he starts to cough and then gag...no biggie...Then all of a sudden he PROJECTILE vomits all over my exposed chest not once, but 3 times!!! All over me, all over himself and all over my bed. I start laughing so hard b.c i knew it was probably a really dumb thing to do...Now i've messed up Enzo's routine, i have to do laundry and currently my boy is asleep and i'm waiting till he wants food again. Good thing Rocco was sleeping throughout this whole ordeal!

Slow Down!

Enzo is now almost 3 weeks old. Rocco is almost 22 months. I find myself wanting Rocco to stop growing up, and wanting Enzo to hurry and grow up. Having a newborn once again has been a little hard adjusting to, but I do have to say it is MUCH easier this time around than with Rocco. I am thankful for that. My little one eats every three hours and then sleeps, so there are moments of calm, but I long for a good nights rest :) It's amazing how lack of sleep truly affects your sanity! Right now my focus are my kids...i must care for them and push forward. I need to enjoy the newborn stage b.c it will quickly be over and I won't be able to put my little bundle to sleep on my chest and soon he will be a 30 pound toddler running around telling me what to do!
