There are some days I really question my sanity in choosing to be a SAHM. Today is one of those days.
DS1 started the day at 1:30 am - after I had finally gotten DS2 to sleep at 11:30 - by coming in and saying, 'Daddy, I want to tell you something so you can stay asleep.' LOL
DS2, who must be going through his 4-month growth spurt a little early, has been nursing about every 2 hours at night and trying to sleep until 11. This means I get little sleep and nothing done in the mornings.
DS1 was given donuts at preschool - and excuse me but what kind of a snack is *that*?! - and so has had lovely behavior ever since I picked him up. And because DH has been letting DS1 get away with it, I have a 4 yo who is telling me "No" when I ask him to do something. So I get to (1) deal with behaviors caused or allowed by someone else and (2) be the "mean mommy" when I do so. Love it. Just LOVE it.
And so on.
I'm just so annoyed and at the end of my rope that I feel like I'm working on raw emotion.
At this point, I'm done, I've had it, and I just can't take any more.
Where's that sippy cup. I need some wine. Now.
