A Walk in my shoes

Hey , i know i havent been blogging as much as i should but lately i have been so busy with preparing for little girl's arrival and many other things , plus the caring for the kids, holidays that were pretty hectic physicly and emotionally so ive been trying to get over it and get back to my normal routine.

So im now 34 weeks and time is moving along fast! At this point im very tired, i cant get around as much which makes me depressed and makes me feel useless.  I know , i know I'm Pregnant and i have a growing baby inside that is getting heavier by the week and its normal to feel this way but i cant help but to feel like theres always something im suposed to be doing that im not, like im forgetting stuff and for a person like me who keeps lists of things to do so i dont forget anything etc, its a hard process.... This is the 3rd trimester and the 3rd degree of the birthing process where i must relax and enjoy my last weeks as a pregnant woman because in not much time , sleep will be a distant memory , aunt flow will kick in full force and ill have a newborn around this already Caotic house. Ive been starting to feel alot of presure between the legs and it makes it hard for me to stand to do simple stuff like the dishes , sweeping, moping , even cooking . My body is slowly getting ready and im not holding back on anything this time around , its like the truth and honnesty in me is a firespitter and it comes out when it has to and sometimes when it shouldnt lol.

On a good note , Max is finally potty trained during the day ... the only issue we have with him is the poopies.
He pooped once in the potty but the rest of the time he does it in his briefs. Ok this is still new to him and he will get around to it since its not like he always does it in his pants , i guess he has a hard time with the timing of ''oh i have to go '' But i am VERY proud of him because diapers are out of the picture for the day and only wears one at night ... It was much easier then i thought it would be because at first he wanted nothing to do with the potty and boom , the week after christmas he starts and now only 1 week into the new year he's potty trained during the day.

Its also the time of year to get Gabby's inscription to school ... YES the big girl school!!! YIKES!!! Where is my preemie baby ??? what Happend ??? She's growing up real fast , changing and coming up with the most hilarious stuff everyday lol she has humor like no other this child . Like for example ,Her greatgrandmother on her dad's side has alzeimers and its pretty severe now and since her grandmother cares for her and the greatgrandma she see's her almost everyday when shes at her dad's and they are all neighbours on the same street so  the other day while having dinner she comes up and says '' Mom , i think dad's grandma is dying '' So as shocked as i was i needed to come up with something thoughtful and delicate to explain to her that she is very sick and when god decides to come take her to heaven  she wont suffer anymore .... so i tell her that and then she says '' Well he better hurry up because she talks to the mirror'' I couldnt help myself and had to turn away to laugh ... She turned a sad conversation to a hilarious one ... Not that its funny but the way she said it and the way her facial expressions came out , it was too much for it not to be funny.

On to Nicolas , Oh dear lord does this child ever have a mind of his own . He NEVER stops moving... He NEVER can sit tight somewhere without getting into something or touching everything he shouldnt. the ONLY way to get him sitting tight somewhere is to put on Adele and he sits on the couch singing along and swaying to the music. Adele is wonderful , even though i dont know her personally i need to get it on video and send it to her ... hes 16 months old and is a fan , can you believe it ? lol So yesturday i decided he needed a haircut and since i never take any of my kids to the hairdresser , i do it myself at home to avoid the tantrums and the embarassement lol So i was trying to figure out a way to get him to hold still while i cut his hair , so i had recorded an interview of adele in which she sings ''someone like you'' & '' rolling in the deep'' so i push play and had him in his highchair and he did not move a muscle.... i got to cut his hair and i was amazed cuz like i said this child does NOT sit through anything and is constantly on the move.

This is the before :

And this is the after ( his 1st hair cut ): He hated the clipper so thats why i got tears for this next pic :P

All forgotten and happy again
