Maybe I'm just feeling emotional because I am so damn tired but I am just feeling so overwhelmed lately. I spend all day, every day taking care of the kids, keeping the house in order, cooking and all the normal things that Moms do and it is just so exhausting that I fall into bed each night shortly after I put Cody to bed. Then I have to wake up several times in the night to nurse Miles and then wake up every morning and do it all over again. It. Never. Stops! I don't ever get to go anywhere alone and I just feel like I don't have time to recharge. Even on the days I manage to get both kids to nap at the same time in the afternoon so I can nap too I still feel so exhausted afterwards.
Some people dream of winning the lottery but lately I find myself dreaming of having an entire day all to myself. I would sleep in, laze around, nap multiple times. Omg it would be heaven! We don't have any friends or relatives nearby who could take the kids for a few hours here and there not to mention the fact that Miles won't take a bottle and Cody cries the one hour a week I have him in daycare to exercise. I just feel like I am barely keeping my head above water sometimes and so depleted of energy. I'm sure the constant snow and minus 30 temperatures don't help my mood.
I have no idea what the solution to all this is. The kids are just exhausting the hell out of me....
