16 1/2 months later...

Can this still be called postpartum depression?  It has been a long time since B3 was born.  Not sure if it is regular moodiness, or something more.  It feels like something more.  More extreme.  I don't like the feelings and thoughts I'm having. I don't feel like a good mom.  I feel like too much is slipping through the cracks.  At home and at work.

Cabbage Patch Dreams - Lyrics

I've been trying to sing this song to my kids at bedtime, but for the life of me, I can never remember the lyrics . Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find the lyrics online, so I'm going to remedy that here and now!

Cabbage Patch Dreams - 

There's someone
Who wants me,
And finds me, and loves me,
Each night
In my cabbage patch dreams

Someone
To play with
To talk to and stay with
Each night,
In my cabbage patch dreams

Someone who is sunny, and funny, and bright
Someone who kisses, and hugs me so tight

I'm dreaming some day
My someone
Will wake me and oooh
All my cabbage patch dreams will come true

Da da di da da
Da da da di da da
Each night in my cabbage patch dreams
Da da di da da
Da da da di da da
Each night in my cabbage patch dreams

Someone whose sunny and funny and bright
Someone who kisses and hugs me so tight
I'm dreaming some day
My someone
Will wake me and oh
All my cabbage patch dreams will come true

Cooking

This is what happens when the baby helps you cook

Getting $h!+ done

Sometimes you just have work that has to get done on the computer. And sometimes work has to get done on the computer while the baby won't let you put him down. Thank goodness for breastfeeding. It distracts the baby long enough for you to get your work done.

Midday vomits =

When the baby vomits once in the day, you clean them up and go about your business.  When the baby vomits twice in one afternoon, and one of those times is down your bra then this happens. A midday bath.

Carrying the baby and ... flossing

Sometimes you just have to floss your teeth. And sometimes you just have to floss your teeth when the baby won't let you put him down. That's when this happens

Going potty

Going to the bathroom is no longer about just going into a room by myself and shutting the door in relieving myself. Now it's about whether I can finish before Baxter licks the toilet or eats the garbage.  My priorities in the bathroom have changed so much since having  baby number three that sometimes I go days without pooping because I can't relax, and or I'm never alone. I don't know which is the bigger problem...
