Bad Day
Does anyone ever have one of those days when you feel like everyone is judging you? I just love those days. No not really, they make me cry. And I had one of them last Friday. I remembered 30 minutes before my appointment for my hormone shot that I had an appointment and had to race out the door since it takes about 25 minutes to get to the office. Oh and I had all three kids with me due to spring break and I had completely forgotten about the appointment. So we got in the car Devin in cut off shorts a polo and flip flops, Graham with food all over his face, and Caroline quite unhappy that we couldn't watch Frozen that minute. It actually wasn't too bad, I thought I had everything under control and then we got to the office and Graham wanted to race me up the escalator (kind of my idea we just go about it different ways) so he sprinted through the lobby and started taking the escalator stairs two at a time. I thought it was funny until the stupid cranky old lady at the front desk started yelling at him and giving me dirty looks. I got him to slow down in a calm way but she kept yelling anyways so I just ignored her and went on my way. When we got to the ob office I stood in a long line to check in and had the boys sit down. Big mistake, they were fighting over who was sitting where and spitting at each other all while everyone in the general vicinity was staring at them. So I tried to separate them and hold Graham but he was not having it and fought me the entire time. It was awesome. I felt like everyone in there was staring at me thinking, "Lady, you already have three kids you obviously can't handle and you thought it'd be a good idea to have another?" I felt so white trash its not even funny. Thankfully the nurse saw me very quickly but by then I was already starting to tear up and not at all relaxed enough to have a giant needle poked in me so my shot that usually doesn't hurt too bad made me want to cry even more. It was awful. I had a bruise for the next few days it was so bad. Yuck. So when we got back to the car I couldn't hold it in any more and just burst into tears. Not my finest moment. Let me tell you getting additional hormones to an already hormonal pregnant woman is not a good idea. I thought I was keeping it together pretty well this pregnancy but that was up until a few weeks ago. I'll just tell you now I"m crazy and can't wait for these shots to be over. On the bright side I was smart enough to find someone to watch my kids this week so I don't leave the office in tears. So if anyone has had a bad day recently give me a call I can totally relate! And thanks to Fernash for cheering me up after my appointment. I love my siblings!

You're an AWESOME mom, Bex, so don't let that grumpy old lady who likely has never had kids or forgot what it was like bother you.
Any time Bexar!
I always end up singing that song, "Mama said there'll be days like this. There'll be days like this, my mama said." I usually end up calling a sibling as well! :)
You are awesome! I can't believe all the amazing things you do (cooking, baking, I could go on and on), and what a wonderful mom you are! Your kids are lucky to have you!
