ohhhhhhh baby..

wow..it's been a crazy week! honestly i think i'm just plain tired! my job in life (both being a mom and also the one i get paid for) is to hang out with kids...at work i'm with babies all day, and for the whole two years i have been there, it's been great. but we have this baby in there now..ohhhhhh....i have never EVER experienced the wrath of any baby/child/human like i have to deal with on a daily basis like i do now. i have a baby (who will remain nameless) that cries ALL day EVERY day. it drains me. i don't think it would be so bad if i didn't have to go home and be with my own two babes.

yes it would. it would be torture if i was single and not ever having a child of my own.

it is awful...i try to put this baby in the swing, rock her, feed her, do pretty much anything to calm her down. and she just cries. literally the only way she'll be ok is if you are in her face or you are holding her walking around the room...as if there aren't 8 other babies in the room that need to be taken care of.

ugh.
her parents don't seem to have the same problem at home (i'm sure b/c they HOLD her all the time!!), and they act kinda clueless if i say anything. it is so frustrating!! i thought when she first came that it might be colic because she was still a bitty baby and sometimes that happens, but it wasn't. she just cried and cried and cried...and to this day does the same thing! i feel so bad because by the end of the day i'm so drained, brainwise and my hearing for that matter..i get so easily irritated at my own kids because this other baby has already taken every ounce of my energy for the day.

have i mentioned i'm looking really hard for a new job?????

i need a break....at least from this kid. maybe she'll go on an extended vacay......that's just my wishful thinking....

at least i get two days off till she makes me deaf again.

happy weekend all!!
