And yet another milestone

So I no longer have to carry a diaper bag.

My daughter uses an actual toilet now.

And I’m happy and excited for her.  What a big girl!!!

And yet, what a big girl.

I hate it.

I love kids.  Especially my kids.  But I love, love, love the early stages.

I have easy babies, they sleep within three months, eat really well, I pump milk like a freaking dairy farm and I just love the sweet, soft cuddles of a baby.

Sure, I love the cuddles of my toddler girl, I love hearing her talk all. the. time.  I love seeing the world through her eyes.

But I miss that baby stage, and unless God has other plans for us, we’re not having more children because we’re very careful these days.  Every month I ask, this month?  And he says no.

I wonder at what point will I stop being jealous of seeing a blogger announce her pregnancy?  Because that is really the only emotion I have as each Catholic blogger I follow announces another baby.  Big freaking sigh.

In the meantime, here’s to carrying a purse again.  Does this mean a new purse is in order for Christmas?!!!  I hope so because I already have one picked out.

  1. From Shea:

    I buy school pictures every year because I’m almost OCD about “set completion.” I started buying them, so now I have to finish so that at the end I’ll have a complete set. But I do buy the smallest possible package.

  2. From Nicole:

    See, I am feeling the same way. But why? I am trying to convince myself that my OCD is not good and this is just taking up space and wasteful spending and resources for me. I don’t even give them to anyone other than both sets of parents. One year, I ordered them 9 months later, just to have a school picture, a picture I never put in a frame!

  3. From Jilly:

    Yay for new purses! And big girls! 🙂

  4. From Nicole:

    I know! I think I know which purse I want, but it might be too expensive. Sigh! Regardless, my little girl is hilarious and not so little.
