Announcing Owen! & Worst mom of the year awards...


As usual, Jenn's photographs turned out amazing! Here's Owen's birth announcement. I'll post photos from the session soon.


In other news, we continued to try to put Collin down for a nap by himself yesterday. Well, after 30 minutes of crying, I couldn't figure out what the problem was, as on Tuesday it took less time than Monday, so on Wednesday I was expecting just 10 minutes of breaking my heart or so. While preventing myself from crying and simultaneously trying to glue myself to the chair, I couldn't take it any longer-- so I went into his room.

There was Collin, crying, saying, "momma" in his saddest voice, with PUKE all over him and on the crib rail, bumper, floor etc. That's right folks. This mom let her kid cry until he puked and then left him to stand near it/in it for who knows how long while I tried desperately to IGNORE him.

Imagine this face, tear stained, with puke stuck to it, pouty lip yelling, "MOMMA!" as if its the worst tragedy of his life.

WORST. MOM. EVER.

SERIOUSLY.

After I went in I cleaned him up and then took him up to our room to lay on our bed with me and we curled up together, I cursed sleep-training, and he fell asleep in my arms.

Epic FAIL.

Trying to figure out option B now, we'll see how Thursday goes....

at least you don't force your kid to sit at the table after they throw up in a plate of food. Just saying... you are a very good mother, who happens to be wrapped around two cute boys fingers!!!
