The Pixie and I have had a horrid week
She escaped the crib
and the transition to a big girl bed has been a real brawl
and in the past few nights it has deteriorated to include poo
lots
and lots
of poo
I have cleaned her carpet
SEVERAL times
neither of us are sleeping well
and
while last night I would have told you that I was ready to put the rails back up and just put a top on the fucking thing
I went out and bought a bed rail today
and we seem to be doing much better
not sleeping sooner
but
at least staying more in bed
I think she feels more secure
on the dating front
vanilla men need to get their shit together
and
I've met all the kink men on the planet
all of them
well
all the local ones
I think I'm dating the wrong fucking gender.
Kids are just great! every day a new thing learnt to keep you on your toes. But poo its a bad deal there. I wish I could help you with your dating. good luck with all things Pixie and dating

Kids are never a finished project. They're always a work in process (progress?) just like we are. And some points along that road are definitely more challenging than others. Talk to her a little bit (I'm always a talker) about what SHE wants and about what you want. That you want her out of the crib because... maybe she wants to stay in the crib because... I get she's a very little kid, but still, it IS a habit you want to get into.
ReplyDeleteAnd men... I think tons of women turn to other women because men can be such a pain in the ass.

Are you journaling your adventures with Pixie? Becasue as frustrating and difficult as this is right now in the moment? You are going to laugh yourself silly about the poo war someday, probably at her batchelorette party.
ReplyDeleteRemember the great Mom motto... What goes around comes around. I try not to feel sorry for my kids, the new parents, so I hide my I told you so smile :)
