A lot of new moms such as myself have been posting about their frustrations with a newborn, or the difficulties of pregnancy and labor. Every one I read with understanding and share their troubles and tribulations. It has not been easy. And now, back at work, I encounter new challenges. It takes all my strength just to leave the house for work, and leave him in the loving arms of a close relative. Not to mention having to pump at work, be up several times a night for feedings, and still be perky. Ugh.
But we have all said over and over that it is worth all the trouble, tears, and pain. And so it is, especially when they are so darn cute.
Or when you get to torture them right back.
Behold Senor Pantalones. Also known as Baby Panthead:
ok he is adorable...
ReplyDeleteAn invitation because I love your blog and I would love to learn more about you:
Write yourself a manifesto. Make it specific (knitting or parenting or music) or general (like mine) So that I can read it.
You.are.brilliant! I personally think all the hell kids put you through: you should be able to dress them up for the first 3 years of their life and take photos... as premature retribution for late nights (walking, then worrying) and gray hair. :)
ReplyDeleteI love Senor Pantalones!
It is all worth it and it's definitely never easy. But the love makes it okay.
ReplyDeleteOKAY SO WHEN DOES HE GET THE LAMPSHADE?
ReplyDeleteHa! My daughter looks back at her baby pictures and says "how could you!!" LOL Of course, what she objects to is the frilly pink dresses and sun bonnets.
ReplyDeleteHugs! Leaving them for work sucks. But the sleep does eventually get better. And as that adorable little baby grows, you'll be so glad he's in your life.
Too cute! :o)
