He learns so much by socializing: sharing, communication, and can see what the older kids are doing and develop that much faster. He was walking at 9.5 months! Also, the daycare has a nice curriculum and can teach him things I wouldn’t know or think of. I know it sucks to just have a couple hours each night with Evie. Try this: <br />On Sundays, do some marathon cooking and freeze a couple dinners.. that way all you have to do is heat up the meal. Create an evening routine. Monday nights, clean up the bathrooms, Tuesday nights after Evie goes to sleep, declutter, Wednesday nights, wash the sheets, iron. You get the picture. It will free up your weekend and let you focus on family more..SAHSHAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15071909147756454366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6388204725053771347.post-83077566779912013262011-02-12T21:33:33.428-08:002011-02-12T21:33:33.428-08:00So funny, but I thought I would feel like you do a...So funny, but I thought I would feel like you do after our first daughter (my second child) was born. I was surprised that I was happy to be at work, that it did refresh me. But now, after Fynn, I am back to feeling the same way. You know it's bad when you're grateful that you've just had a week at home with your girls, even if it is because they (and you) were horribly sick.<br /><br />As for the sciatica, have you considered chiropractic care? That can help immensely!Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12434884811193988493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6388204725053771347.post-56549284540062349662011-02-09T06:37:41.213-08:002011-02-09T06:37:41.213-08:00It's sad that just reading your post made me t...It's sad that just reading your post made me tear up.

One of these days, you will be able to be home with her and it will be great. You are right, this too shall pass. I hope it gets easier for you. =(Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12008250585935827689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6388204725053771347.post-858582226639208632011-02-08T16:00:31.412-08:002011-02-08T16:00:31.412-08:00This too DOES pass!

Now he is 3.5 and I'm a single mom. He only has me, and I'm gone 40 hours a week working while he goes to school. We come home, eat dinner, do laundry, clean, whatever. Then I spend most of every weekend with him, but I'm forced to juggle my attention between my boyfriend and Jameson. Thankfully, my bf and son are good friends =) so we do a lot together. Just think, it could be worse. Things will get better.ashleyluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10079418877470139079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6388204725053771347.post-7424125828744505932011-02-08T13:49:18.241-08:002011-02-08T13:49:18.241-08:00you took the words right out of my mouth.
