What if the ‘Hokey Pokey’ is what it’s all about?

My boring world, in a weblog…

I’m definitely there…

So…you know that place where you know you need to / have to work full-time meets that place where you’re pregnant, tired, and just want to be a stay at home mommy at least until your babies have started school…I’m definitely there…

I usually love working…I love doing what I do…I love helping Soldiers get what they need accomplished and if there are any problems Soldiers, I love doing my job to get rid of them.  (I know, it sounds harsh, but I can’t help it, it’s the truth and I love kicking them out if they don’t want to be a part of our great Army.)  Notice, I said I “USUALLY” love working. 

Lately though, I have been so tired, I’m sure because I’m pregnant, and I take care of my 6 month old son after work, during the night if he wakes up, and then of course in the morning before daycare.  Now-a-days I just want to stay home all day with my little boy, cuddle with him in the mornings as he is waking up, feed him breakfast, lunch, dinner, & bottles, sing him songs, read him books, play with him and all of his little toys…make him laugh, hear him “talk”….I just want to stay at home and take care of him…

Our daycare rates just went up, thanks to my raise this year…so, I kind of have to work, or I could just stop working, then we wouldn’t have to worry about paying for daycare….that would be so nice.

My little baby boy just graduated to room 7, which is the 6 – 12 month old room…he is getting so big and growing so fast…I wanted to cry when I looked at all the pictures they gave me from his old room, room 2…Today is his first day in room 7…

Right now he is probably the youngest baby in the room.  When I dropped him off this morning, there was one other baby in there, he was 8 months old and crawling around everywhere…Riley can’t crawl yet, and he can’t sit up unassisted yet either, so he’s got to catch up with the other little guy in there…The teacher, Miss Michelle had a little seat in the floor for Riley, but it didn’t have a front on it, just a back, so when he leaned forward to get a toy, he fell over sideways, and his head kind of went into the box of toys…He didn’t cry, because he hardly ever cries, he just stayed there until Miss Michelle sat him upright again, which was only a second or two after he fell…His tush is still a little round, so he can’t really balance that well on it…

Anyway, They are going to start feeding him foods…I have been feeding him foods for the past week or so..we have to feed our babies new foods at home for 5 days before daycare will feed them that way we can see if there is going to be any negative reactions to anything…So far, there have been no negative reactions…thank goodness!

Anyway, used to I would blog about work, but now I don’t really have any interest in what I do at work, I just miss my baby while I’m supposed to be working….I hate it, I’m miserable…I want to quit doing the full time thing, and just go back to doing the weekend thing once a month…I want to be a Mommy first, and a Soldier second…Sue me, I would rather spend time with my son than with ungrateful, disrespectful, irritating idiots…

I want to go to daycare, pick up my little boy, and just go home.
