Dear Diary-
I had my post-prego wrap up appointment today and I had both the kids. Miles was awesome. He charmed the nurses and the midwife and even went potty in the big person potty while we were there. Then he started getting tired and threw a fit when I tried to put him in his seat to go to Faye's doctors appointment, but he got over it pretty fast.
When we were at Faye's appointment Miles was awesome while there were fishies to look at, but when we went into the little room he was so naughty. Sometimes he turns into this little crazy person and it is really hard for me to be nice to him when he becomes what I call: "Monster Miles" or "M squared."
Faye is always a little sweetheart and spends most of her time sleeping. Today, for some sad reason, during her appointment, she cried. Hard. And while she was crying Miles climbed up on the doctor's spinner chair, turned off the light, and then fell off the spinner chair on his head.
Today I feel like I am just babysitting Miles and I can't wait for his parents to get home so that I can have some alone time. I thought I was going to get that time when Miles took his nap, but a few minutes after I put him down I heard a horrible crash. I went upstairs and he had pulled all of the clothes out of his drawers and tipped over the bin that holds them. I was so mad.
We sat up there until he cleaned everything up and then came over to me and gave me a big hug. "Mommy sad. I sorry Mommy." It made me cry.
It is hard when he is naughty, but he can be such a sweetheart and he is my best friend- excluding David, of course. I spend all day everyday with him and I love it, but sometimes I lose my cool and it's so not worth it. Will he remember me as his Mom who spent fun time doing activities and reading him stories or will he remember me getting upset and showing my angry eyes?
Love you,
Cicely

Thanks for sharing that. Glad I'm not the only one ;o) Tess will ask if I'm happy all the time (when I'm upset) and it breaks my heart. It does make you wonder what they'll remember. I keep my fingers crossed that it's the happy mommy :o)
I had my doctor's appointment yesterday too. I don't know how you did it with two little ones...I was stressing out with one! And as soon as I changed into the gown Taylor started crying, so I went to get her and then my milk came in and my gown had two lovely wet spots. But two to look after while at the doctor? Kuddos!
Oh my friend, you are too cute! You are such a good mom, of course he will remember you being awesome. Because you are, you are a wonderful mom and I totally look up to you! LOVE ya, sorry its been a tough day.
Its tough with toddlers, isn't it? I know. Emma goes through naughty streaks....but then, she comes up to me with her blanket and says "I need some cuddle time Mom"....how do you stay mad at that? or "I love you Momma"...its a good thing they have that sweet side...or many of these toddlers wouldn't make it to age 3!!
Cicely- you are an incredible mom! We all have our bad days. And Miles is such a sweetheart! That is so cute he apologized and gave you loves! Feel free to come over and teach me how to be a parent anytime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I am dead serious!)
