This is very hard for me to admit. But, I am exhausted. So much so that this post almost didn’t happen. Due to the new watermarks on the photos it takes an extra ten minutes or more to get them ready. So yes, back to the exhaustion. I am done. I know it is party my own fault because I have been trying to keep myself busy and get lots of projects done, but I just have to take a small step back.
Apple has been going, going, going and J has been demanding every free moment for him, totally understandable. I feel terrible that J and I don’t get to spend as much quality time together as we used to so when Apple does go to sleep I try and do the fun stuff that he loves. Like baking cookies for Daddy. Which is fun, but oh so fattening and tiresome.
Apple is getting her teeth. Yes, she is not quite as good as her brother was. She has been waking up every hour to hour and a half and this morning? She was up at 4am. Just too early. I gave up at 5:30am and came down for coffee. Top that off with the fact that J has a goopy eye and a cold, means that everything is twice as hard as usual. Hubby is also working late tonight so here I am typing away when I should be running around cleaning this joint up.
I think I will take a break from my projects and regroup, which of course means I will be back at it in a few days but for today, you get a little whine from me. Hope you don’t mind.

Whine away, beachmama. We won’t mind. We’ll even virtually pat your shoulder and say, “It’s okay to be exhausted and take a break from the nonessentials. It’ll get better soon.” 🙂
I hope things settle down soon!
I don’t mind at all. I know how it feels. Before Christmas I honestly felt like I was ready to lose it. I was so exhausted and there was so much to do. It is hard to step away from it all. Try and relax and regroup. The break is worth it. Take Care
We have all been there, don’t beat yourself up. Just do what you need to do.
Ugh. 4am. just reading that made me tired. I can’t imagine how you feel.
🙂
Vent away!
I can only imagine and will be going through it soon enough.
Hang in there, your kids are happy and mostly healthy all because of you and your efforts. 🙂 cookies are good too.
4am is way too early, it’s still dark!
I like the kitchen!!!
Oh, you are such a busy lady! Hope you get some time to yourself once in a while too 🙂
Apple is sure growing fast! J looks happy in the kitchen! 🙂
Aww, sweetie, it only gets easier from here. Hang in there, and do something just for you…I wish you lived closer!
She’s getting so big!
