Baby for give-away to good home.....

Does anybody want a michevious, whingy little one-year-old boy? I assure you he's extremely cute!

But I tell you what! Right now I am NOT handling him at all! He's driving me absolutely BATTY! He's into EVERYTHING!!! He plays with all the buttons on the TV and receiver, gets in behind Greg's speakers (often knocking them down) and pulls out all the DVDs, CDs that are along the side of it... well that was, until I chucked a 'nar-nar' yesterday, threw them all on the kitchen table and told Greg to 'do something else with them!' Gggggrrrrrrr...... and aaaahhhhhhhh.... all at once!!

We desparately NEED a nice big playpen, but until Greg starts working and some money starts coming in, we are flat broke. Plus the one we want is a nice big one - that hopefully a previosuly free-range one-year-old won't kick up too much of a stink about - but its very $$ too (of course, that's always the way).

Oh, maybe its just me and my big fat belly, lack of energy etc with the last few weeks of this pregnancy, but I am SERIOUSLY OVER HIM!!

OK, my rant is over now. Hopefully it makes me feel better. (Would be great too, if miraculously it make him want to sit down and play with HIS toys or watch a movie all morning, but I doubt that.)

LOL, Natti! Good luck getting him to STAY in the playpen!!

I hope you are feeling a little more energetic tomorrow - and your little boy decides to be nice to his poor, pregnant mummy!

Hope to day is a better day Nat and once again he is your little cherub. Definately blame the pregnancy - the last few weeks sure zap your energy levels. Anyway praying for a better week for you this week and hoping that you get to put your feet up a bit and get a break too.

LOL Nattie!
I *so* know what you're going through (except I'm not pregnant, LOL)... They're just being boys! I have a good solution for a playpen, if you need some time out, and have a porta-cot, use it instead! I sometimes throw Ben in ours with a heap of toys and then you can drag it from room to room if need be, and because it's not his cot he doesn't get confused about playing and sleeping in the same thing.
Hang in there!

Ah Nat - just be thankful that he has such an inquisitive mind - sign of intelligence! And also that he has that much energy - sign of good health! There's always something to give thanks for in the most frustating days. I wish I was there to take him off for a day now and then - or a few hours everyday, so you could rest. Sigh.
