SAD LIL ONE'S

May 12, 2008 02:24pm (EST)

Well my babies are kind of sad today . Their Daddy is going out of town for a few weeks are they are so upset. MISTER was kind of fussy and my lil NENA BELL was hysterical. She is a daddy's girl and it hurt her to have to see him go. Mister is a mama's boy so he'll be okay but his sister I'm going to have to give her some extra attention to help her deal with this. It gives me a lil peace cuz as much as I love him I could sure use the space although I'll miss him. My babies seem kind of lonely without their Daddy here. NENA BELL fell asleep crying for her Daddy and when she woke up the first thing she asked me was "Where's my Daddy?" I felt so bad for her. She's such a Daddy's girl. MISTER seems to notice his daddy isn't around cuz he keeps looking towards his Daddy's favorite chair.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

May 11, 2008 09:33am (EST)

Today is a HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY for me . My lil MISTER is doing well and so is his sister NENA BELL . Although today is wet and cold; my heart is warm and filled with sunshine. Everyday my lil man is getting a lil better, a lil stronger. He's making more effort to stand on his legs. I can't wait until he is big enough to really play with and enjoy his big sis.

GOOD DAY FOR MISTER!

May 09, 2008 04:39pm (EST)

today wasn't a good day for MISTER . He's teething and he's been really cranky and miserable. I feel so bad for him. I took him outside today and I was so happy that the sun did'nt affect him like it usually does. He wasn't crying, nor watery eyes or runny nose. He actually enjoyed himself watching the birds and seeing his sister ride her bike. He actually was kind of upset when we came back inside . I was so happy to see him finally enjoy the weather like other babies do.

HAPPY TO SEE MY MISTER!!!!

May 08, 2008 12:57pm (EST)

MISTER was so happy us yesterday! He got so excited; it made me feel great! He looks so handsome. We took him and his sister out to play in the backyard (well he didn't do much playing ) but the sun wiped him out. He got so hot and cranky his nose was running and his eyes were watering. He looked so adorable in his baseball hat. His head is so little his hats were too big and they were only size 0-3 months! His sister won't let him out of her sight. His features are starting to change so now he is beginning to look kind of like my lil brother when he was that age. Today has been a good day despite his anger at the heat .

MISTERS COMING HOME!!!!!

May 07, 2008 06:15am (EST)

I'm a lil aggravated but knowing that I will be going to pick my baby up from mom's makes me feel a lil better! One of MISTERS teeth already made its appearance so I'm sad about that but I cant wait to see his new smile . His sister NENA BELL is so happy. She cant wait to see her "Bruda" I have missed my lil MISTER so much it was driving me insane. His dad is going too. Hopefully our excitement over MISTERS return will make our relationship a lil more peaceful. Right now I'm ready to tell him to take a hike and I don't mean up a mountain either. Maybe stress is the cause of our tension but at this point in my life I just dont have time for it. I have more important people and things to worry about right now and honestly he's (MISTERS dad) not one of them. I know he as issues too dealing with our sons health but he is not the only one. I know I go through guilty feelings concerning MISTER and maybe he does too being that he stressed the hell out of me during my pregnancy but the past cant be changed so if he wants us to have a better future as a family he needs to get it together.

MISTER IS SO MANNISH

May 03, 2008 04:17pm (EST)

Mister is so mannly(is that a word)! He wants to be independent. He wants to help you feed him and he acts like he can change his own pamper holding it close to him while you try to take it off. He wants things done on his time. If you take his clothes off when he doesn't want you to he fusses and then after 2 minutes he's fine like he changed his mind or something. The sun is reallly hurting my baby. My mom took him out today and his lips got all blistered from the sun and his face was peeling. I might have to get something from his doctor to protect him because regular over the counter sunblock is not working for my baby. The doctors told me Mister will more than likely always be small for his age but as long as he is healthy I wouldn' t care if he was 4ft 6in at 18 years old.
well he would probably care .

MISTERS NEW LOOK

May 02, 2008 09:20am (EST)

MISTER has a new look. He has a lil color now and his hair is falling out a little bit so he kind of looks likd Archie from the comic books . Mister is such a happy baby he enjoys life so much. He very rarely crys; if he does he is very upset or feeling cranky(which isn't often). As I type he's in the mall with my mom shopping for a tandem stroller for Mister and his sister. My daughter Nena Bell loves her "bruda" so much and she is so overprotective of him. Everymorning when she wakes up she looks for him and if he is not in his crib she immediately asks" where's my bruda?" She misses him so much now she asks about him everyday and she even asks to talk to him on phone when we speak to my mom . Mister used to have a full head of hair but now he's been reduced to just a curly bang . He is still handsome as ever so it's okay. I always tell him he is the only toothless man for me

STRESSFUL NIGHT

May 01, 2008 09:04pm (EST)

I feel like screaming! He is getting on my nerves tonite. No I'm not talking about MISTER I'm talking about his dad. He makes me so sick, sometimes I wish my kids were hatched from eggs and I didn't have to be bothered. I think my emotions are just making me very irritable. I'm missing MISTER. He's spending the week with my mom and it is killing me. He's teething now and I want to be there for that. I know it takes more than a week for him to get teeth but I just want my baby. I know I should be enjoying this rest but although it's overwhelming at times I still get so worried when he's not in my line of vision.

JUST ANOTHER DAY

May 01, 2008 04:53pm (EST)

I've been out shopping trying to find Mister some baseball caps. His medication LASIX makes him very prone to sunburn and he's already very light so he stays red as a lobster. Its been hard on him because he wears sunblock but its not enough he still burns easily. He's small for his age so I've been looking for newborn sizes although he's going to be 7 months soon. I hate the fact that he can't enjoy the sun like most kids but whatever it takeks for him to have as normal a life as possible than thats what i will try to do.

KARMA

Apr 29, 2008 08:57pm (EST)

was reading a book and something came to mind. I've done so much wrong to people in my past that i wonder if my baby's health is due to karma. i found out about Mister(that's what i call my little man)'s heart condition when i was 5 months pregnant and i contemplated all my options but i choose to give him a chance at life. i know i havent been the best person but i changed so much before mister was even born that i felt i had paid my debt to society for all the $*** i'd done in my past. It seemed like Mister was trouble from conception. I had horrible morning sickness then found out about his problelm. It was hard on me real hard I didnt have any one in my circle of friends who had kids with birth defects so i didnt have anyone to turn to. My man was/is very supportive but he wasnt as emotional as me. I so many appointments some times as many as four a week. I was so happy when it came close to my due date only to find out he was in a breech position so i would have to have a c-section. It hurt like hell not being able to hold my baby after i had him cuz they had to rush him to the NICU. Then i still couldnt see him cuz i had to recover first. so i didnt see my baby till the next morning on his way to get his surgery. my lil mister is so handsome and he came thru his surgery like a trooper. i felt so bad like it was somehow my fault my baby had to go thru that like it was payback for something i had done in my past. i felt so bad when i got released from the hospital and had to leave my mister behind. i cryed and prayed every day and nite for him to pull thru and come home. I have a secret that i never told anyone but i feel i can tell you cuz yall are strangers. when i was 17 my high school sweetheart cheated and got the chick pregnant . i was crushed i prayed that baby dead . I got over it and i had forgot all about it until i gave birth to my son and ironically he was born the same day 14 years later and with the same initials as the baby i wished dead. KARMA!!!! now you can understand why i say i feel this was payback.
