StopNo.Don’t Do That.Enough! October 14, 2015. I understand why my X has no problem picking the kids up late and bringing them home early every week. He spends approximately 10-12 hours a week with them, and the nanny and I spend, well, the rest. If and only if, you are a single parent of 3 children, 3 and under, 1 with needs that are well above average, will you understand why. Do YOU know why? Failure. Ironic, isn’t it? Don’t Do That! That it seems to have a cummulative effect and each episode adds ano...

Talk Back, Meltdown, and Pukey | whatsamamatodo
https://whatsamamatodo.wordpress.com/2015/10/26/talk-back-meltdown-and-pukey
Talk Back, Meltdown, and Pukey. October 26, 2015. The nanny texted me a few months ago when she was at Target and witnessed a fellow shopper and her 3 year old girl. The mom had a break down in the middle of an aisle crying after her daughter had been acting up. As my nanny walked past, the mom said she had just wanted to get out of the house. At about the same time, Twin 2 puked all over the couch and himself after licking my chip. Tag team twins. Good to be home after such an exciting outing. You are c...

3 Birthdays, 2 Halloweens, and 1 Tired Mama. November 9, 2015. This weekend I was happy to have some “down” time, with no parties and no trick or treating and we could just be. When they returned from their Dad’s today, it was the best transition ever, and they were happy and calm. Movies, snacks, naps, dinner, tub, and bedtime and all is quiet. Hallmark here I come.

Failure-Free Day | whatsamamatodo

October 16, 2015. So fast he jumped, and then got mad and threw himself face down on the dirty, tiled floor and open-mouthed cried. I think he licked the floor. Twin 2 just wanted to be held and whimpered and squirmed the entire lunch. I took my 1-bite-missing salad and their entire meal home. Needless to say, I don’t think I said more than 5 words to my adult lunch mates. StopNo.Don’t Do That.Enough! Talk Back, Meltdown, and Pukey →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Misc Musings No. 6. November 10, 2015. These are a few of the lovely little tidbits I heard around my humble home in the past month…. My daughter to Twin 1 racing through the kitchen, “Get on your mark, get on your set, Go”! Dialogue between Twin 1 and me while trying to escape for one whole minute after a LONG day, “Mom, you up here”? 8220;Yes”. “What you doing”? 8220;I needed a minute to myself”. “Oookkaay, Mom”. Like, ok whatever Mom. He’s 2…. That was what he needed to hear? Dialogue between me and T...

Birthday, Birthday, Birthday…. October 28, 2015. Do any of us? It was just easier to stay home in my jammies, without eating or showering or brushing my teeth or sleeping! None of that by choice. It’s been a wild, less-than-perfect, life-altering, 4 years, but I hope that when she is my age (old) she will only remember the good stuff, like chocolate and pumpkin cupcakes with a princess theme and the homemade card that her Mama and brothers made her. Happy Birthday, Baby Girl…. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

November 28, 2016. I don’t realize how abnormal my family is until we are at a normal public event. Our daily lives consist of home, school, and multiple therapies, and we are surrounded by people that know “our situation”. What I would’ve liked to have said to the trio who thought that I just had a noisy child, and was disturbing a few minutes of their program, that they have no idea the effort or love that it takes to just BE there, and thankfully they never will. November 27, 2016. I thought about jou...
