Family Travel

Back to Reality

I haven’t had time to write lately, but I’ve had a lot to
say, probably too much to say. I’ve wanted to write about vacation, trips to
the zoo, and leaving Jack with a sitter. But since we’ve gotten home from Aruba,
I’ve barely had time.

There was unpacking, laundry and food shopping. Jack’s 15
month check up and music classes, my endoscope (all is well) and work. These 2
weeks since we’ve been home have flown by.
And when I manage to find a spare moment to write I only
make it a sentence before Jack is calling for me to get a toy from the
depths of his toy box or Bailey is whining at the door desperate to go out or
come back in. They both seem needy since we got home.
Bailey is adjusting to being back under his own roof and
Jack is adjusting to life with just mommy again. While we were away Jack had
his Daddy 24/7 and his mom-mom and pop. Now it’s just the two of us and when
John leaves for work in the am, there are always tears.
Jack’s naps have been short except on the days when I’m
working when he naps for 2 or 3 hours. Mom just can’t seem to catch a break
this week. The day I had the endoscope he woke up at 6 and napped for only an
hour. It was a long day.
I’m starting to think that my days of feeling well rested
are well behind me. Just like Friday nights at the bar which I don’t miss
nearly as much as I thought.

    You sound like a busy mom with a 1 year old, oh wait you are!!! Yup, you're at an extremely busy time of your life. I for one can tell you that there will be sleep again.

    Eventually.
