Basket Case

So, in looking at my blog it appears I have done nothing but have a 2 month series of "Wordless Wednesdays." Yes, I have been lazy, but I'm pregnant dammit - pregnant & quite frankly it's too hot out for me to even think straight in my downtime.

There has been a whole lot to blog about, I have just yet to put "pen to paper." Most importantly, my son turned 3 & I am a wreck. There are very little parts of him that are like a baby anymore, with the exception of still changing the occasional Pull-Up. He is proudly sleeping like a champ in his "big boy" bed, he pees standing up by himself, he has graduated to a new car seat...the list continues. One would think I would be excited about all of this new found independence with #2 only 8 weeks away, but I can only find myself wishing time would stop.

Pulling out all of the old baby clothes, toys & books sure hasn't helped either. Every free moment doing so is like a trip down memory lane. I have enjoyed it, but with me being this hormonal it is a dangerous thing - the tears can often come very quickly.

All I can do at this point is look back & be so thankful for the time I have been able to spend with him as a mother & SAHM. I am so grateful for this wonderful little person in my life, and I truly am looking forward to seeing him as a nurturing big brother. Until then, a few videos to rekindle the memories...

Now I'm a wreck too! I can't believe how fast little Wy has become BIG WY!!! I did find the video hilarious because you're never actually IN IT with the boy! Standard, Kelly working behind the scenes.

Oh that video about made me cry. It's so amazing how they go from that to a big three year old who pees standing up and talks back.
I was hormonal and emotional too when I pulled out all Big Roo's clothes for the little guy. I couldn't believe he was that small.

Um, just wrote a blog post about the same thing. Why was 3 soooo hard???? Glad to know I am not the only basket case around here!

great post and video. It has been great seeing them grow to be 3, but where did the time go. Cadence will be 2 for 3 more weeks and I am hanging on to every minute.
