Maybe I'll Get a Shower Today

As a new mother of two I am still working out the kinks in things.  For instance “when to shower”.  My best bet on getting a shower is before John Brantley wakes up (but that time still varies) or right after I first feed him in the morning.  I can’t always do that because Fancy is usually in the shower then using up all my hot water.  If I wait too long he will pitch a royal fit sitting in his bouncy seat.  Well, today my friend, Rosy, took Ford swimming and I decided that I could get a shower and not fear that he was destroying my house.  I fed John Brantley and put him in his bed.  I waited about 5 minutes and decided the coast was clear so I hopped on in.  I lathered up my first leg to shave and it HE STARTED CRYING.  I thought holy moly.  I shaved that leg super quick and got out to rock him.  I got back in the shower and shaved the other leg and got out.  Forget washing my hair… It’s already 11:00... the day is halfway over.  I’ll wash it tomorrow.  (I know any mom can relate to that story)!

This morning we were playing outside and my next door neighbor was walking her dog.  This lady pretty much stays inside all the time so we never see her.  Ford actually asked me who she was when I said hello to her!!  Well, she wanted to see the baby and I almost died when I realized what his outfit said…

 

We have a new park in Mayberry.  Yesterday we went to play with some new friends.  Ford enjoyed digging.  He felt like he was driving some sort of tractor.  

 

I don’t do as well with tummy time on baby number 2.  We usually try to have it when Ford is asleep.  Ford feels the need to get right in his face and touch and kiss all over him.  It makes me panic!

 

Last weekend Trey played in a golf tournament.  I was upset that he was going to be gone all weekend.  On Friday he thought he needed to go out to the country club and “practice”.  Well, we were tired of being at home and it was near that lovely hour at our house when JB yells.  So we loaded up and headed to the golf course too!!!  Trey was NOT impressed that we came out there.  I rented my own cart and everything…. JB slept like a champ riding the course and Ford enjoyed driving!

Well, I’m 30 now.  I’m old.  It’s hard to believe my 20’s are gone.  I made A LOT of memories in those ten years and I know I will make lots in my 30’s.  I didn’t cry… it was just a “normal” day.
