TRUTH - Day 10: Someone you need to let go, or wish you didn’t know.

Uggghhh ... haven't we already covered this! I am so done with this blog or maybe I am just really tired.

There is no one in my life I need to let go of. I don't have the energy at this point in my life to tolerate someone that I really can't tolerate. There is one person that I just need a little bit of space from because I am pretty hurt and frustrated right now, but I certainty don't want them out of my life. I think that is the answer. Only have positive people in your life and when those positive people turn temporary negative (which they are bound to do since they are only humans) just take a break until they get their $h!t figured out and can be positive again.

Dogs

I also thought about writing about the dogs. Right now I wouldn't mind if they were out of my life but I don't really mean that. They are so sweet and we just got them cleaned so they don't smell or anything but I am little fed up with all the dog hair right now. I think it is a pregnancy thing though . . . I felt like this before Petie was born. I didn't want to bring my new precious little baby home to filthy grosser dogs. I got over it . . . I am sure I will get over it again.

Now on to better things to blog about . . . and to explain why I am so tired!

Our son isn't sleeping, isn't acting like himself, and is needy and emotional. We have taken him to the doctor twice in one week . . . the prognoses . . . behavioral challenges! They think he is testing the bounds and we have been letting him get away with it since we think he is sick. They told us nothing is wrong with him. There aren't even any signs of teething. They gave us all sorts of tips and Mike and I walked out and said that we can't do it . . . something is wrong with him and we can't implement tough love. But last night he wouldn't sleep unless one of us was laying in bed with him the entire time! So two very tired parents decided that today was tough love day. So when he woke up from his nap after 30min we let him cry and scream at his door for 15min. But when he started yelling "Dada Dada Dada DADA DADA DADA DADA" frantically he broke right through our tough love. This is going to be a long day, night, week . . . wish us luck.

  1. Oh I'm so sorry Jolie!!! I wish I had advice for you but baby M is too young. It will get better (I'm sure it has to!) and you will again get some sleep!

    PS
    I'm sure you'll love your dogs again. I go through that still where I want them out but I love them and I know baby M will probably ignore the hair much better than I can...
