Terrible Two's and The Belly Blues

Well, Mycah is almost two. Her Birthday is on Feb. 25th but the terrible 2's are coming in full force. If you know Mycah at all, you'd know she's definitely moody enough as it is. Her big sister seems like a dream compared (or maybe I just don't remember). She seems to think that if she fusses...constantly...I'll serve her needs. What it really does, is make me throw a two year old fit right back at her. She hits (swats really). If you give her what she's having a fit for, she'll throw it right back at you. Time-outs work ok, but not great. She really just fusses...ALOT! Check it out.

Ok, so now with the Belly Blues. I'll be into my Second Trimester next week. Of course, being baby number three, I am definitely "showing". Only its the kind that looks like a pooch, not flat, and not prego. So one may just think you're a bit overweight in the middle. I wear Sweats constantly and can't seem to find anything cute to wear. I pulled out my maternity clothes, and wouldn't you know it...OUT OF STYLE!!! Two years old and all my maternity shirts are SHORTER than my EVERYDAY WEAR Shirts! So the other day I totally cheated and used the credit card to buy some sweaters. I'm not even close when it comes to the amount of maternity clothes I'm going to need throughout this pregnancy, but its a start. So just a warning to you Mothers who think your clothes will still be cute in a few years...THINK AGAIN! Maybe some will be good, but unless you have a baby at the exact same season as your last...just plan on replacing that wardrobe. Ok, Belly Blues number two....Vericose Veins! The day of the "Leaves" was the day I started to "feel them". As my second trimester thickens...so will the veins...and the constant ache that comes with them. I have the dumb support hose, but they itch and are very annoying to wear. So pray that I will be able to cope through the next 6 to 7 months.
