I'm just trying to literally recover, keep my head down, look after myself and get a clear head.
I know it's hard when they are little and so demanding but drinking as you know will only make things seem worse. Stay strong and hope the teeth all come through as quickly and painlessly as possible
Thanks Mia!! Yeah there were some darker days after my second came along, 21 months apart and that is when I first started staying home. At first I was like - "I've got this!" - I had never wanted anything else! Then vey quickly I thought to myself, "what have I done?!" Lol. Now by this third kiddo I know what I need to do but it doesn't make it easy all the time.

Truth to the saying.....the days can be long but the years are short...

We are not big on Valentine's Day - besides myself using it as an excuse for champagne. I'm lobbying for a new ice cream flavor this year.
