| So I joined a Mommy support group.... |
So I decided to join the Mom's Club yesterday. Kyan and I need to get out of the house and out into the world and work on some of our issues and if sipping kool-aid and getting dirt on our diaper is what it takes then that's how it's going to be! I think the main reason that I even entertained the idea of joining was because of the separation issues we're having right now. It's not enough that I can barely go upstairs to put away laundry without him screaming and crying until I return, but I also can't put him in the play pen, or the car seat, or even put up the baby gates without the wailing starting. He's even having issues with my Mom not holding him when he wants her, which is understandable because he's seen her the most outside of his Mommy and Daddy since he was born.
To get him introduced to other kids, let's face it he's around adults 98% of the time and I don't want him to grow up with a big vocabulary and manner like me but wants nothing to do with the school bus and kindergarten later on, we've signed up for a bunch of stuff this month. First off we might go walking on Thursday at 10 a.m. (not my ideal time because now his eating schedule is off. Usually we have gram crackers and yogurt with Sesame Street at 11) It's low key, one mile, and on stroller time so definately not a big rush aerobic type thing, not that I don't need to get the blood flowing because I gotta drop some weight and I still haven't had time to watch the Baby/Mommy Yoga DVD I bought. I'm also doing "Duck Days" which is a picnic lunch and feeding the ducks at Prickett's Fort, and a couple other activities that are sponsored at other memebers homes (which I've never met a few of them so it'll be kind of weird going to someone's house and then introducing yourself.)
That's another thing. I CAN'T INTRODUCE MYSELF ANYMORE!! Is my identity completely gone outside of , "Hi, I'm Steph..AND THIS IS KYAN! Kyan kyan kyan..he does this.. he does that..we're working on this...blah blah blah.."and the conversation ending in "We'd better go get his sippy and crackers" or "No, you can't get down. That's ka-ka" and then him saying ka-ka and laughing for 10 minutes.
Hopefully my mind will return shorty now that I've joined. |
