Where has the Time Gone?

Im twenty-seven....there is no way to make that number sound exciting. Im almost to thirty and thats all I can think about when I hear that number...gag me. Travis and I recently decided that we would try for another child. "If were going to do it, it might as well be now" he tells me. So I say okay. BAM. Three months later, I pee on a stick. Yep. Preggers! Am I happy? Im not sure what I am to be honest with you. I love my daughter Patricia and I know I will love this baby, but I can't help but think of all of the days and nights of no sleep. Actually, scratch that, Im not really worried about the no sleep. Its dealing with a 4 year old and an infant that has me shaking in my boots! Its insane! I find out Im pregnant, quit my job and get married all in the same 2 weeks. I have lost my mind. Somebody put in a padded room and throw away the key. Don't get me wrong, I wanted this too...its just...well, I didn't think it would be so fast! The beginning of summer and Im knocked up. Morning sickness galore. "That isnt a healthy glow" I tell people...its the queasiness and complete exhaustion that your seeing. Like I said, total loon here.

Did I say stay at home mom?

Its been quite some time since I last blogged. The better half a of a year to be exact. I am now a working gal who wishes she still stayed home with her little tater bug (whom by the way is 1 1/2 now!)

I hate the fact that now. I miss a lot of things that go on in my daughters life, not to mention my house has never suffered as much as it is now. I wish I could still be the stay at home mommy that I was, but I am scared to bring that up with my main man. He likes the fact that I work and I don't want to disapoint him. Life is confusing. I thought I wanted a job, but then I realized home was where I need to be. The grass isn't always greener.

Tired but Happy...

This is my first blog. Actually, I never saw myself as a "blogger" so to say, but I guess it was my time to catch up with the times.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Jenn and I am 24 years old. I have a beautiful baby girl who is 10 months old as of January 5. Her name is Patricia, but we call her Trish for short. I am engaged to a wonderful man who supports my decision to spend my days at home with Trish.

When I was younger and heard the term "Housewife" I always thought of woman sitting in front of the t.v. eating bon-bons and watching her daily soaps. Boy was I in for a surprise! My days consist of the neverending job of laundry, dishes, and diapers. As grueling as this may seem, I love my life. I like cleaning and taking care of my family. It is a job that suits me. I have always been one of those people that loves to do things for others, even if the reward was never that great. So I may not get a thank you everytime I wipe messy faces or fingers, but that adorable toothless grin is thanks enough for me.
