^she's way too close to these plants. It's freaking me out. I am 92.8% certain there's poison ivy somewhere there. ^
Mondays are a shock to the system. I definitely received lots of presents.
I cleaned up a puddle of urine as soon as I woke up. Somebody did not make it to the toilet because he refused to use his legs properly. He has a bruised knee and was scooting around the house on his bottom.
with so much frustration, I dug around boxes and looked for a shirt and pair of shorts. I found the blue Mother Mary shirt from my good friend, Sr. Solanus. I put it on and it was way too tight on the chest area. I had to find a back-up top. ok tunic it is....
I changed 3 children, sadly with not enough patience since I raised my voice... I chased baby D4 - she thought it was a game of "let baby cry while momma is changing me."
I fed baby then burped him. Baby burped, and up he regurgitated, give or take, an oz of milk. There's trickle of milk on my tunic all the way down to my left leg. I was back to the boxes to find another loose fitting shirt.

postpartum blues
those postpartum blues are real.
i feel sad... why do I feel sad? i smell my baby's head. I see my children run and play. Yet I feel sad.
My husband asks me a question. I did not want to answer. I did not want to converse at all. Like there is no reason to talk so why answer. I know it's rude. But why am I mean to him? He did not do anything wrong.
It's 11:45pm. Instead of sleeping when my baby sleeps, I am here sitting at the loveseat, staring at the moonless, cloudy night. I did not do this before. I was either knocked out because I need sleep or busy, busy, busy doing something and checking off my to-do list. Yet I am sitting here, about to cry.
Cry... Those postpartum blues are real. Why am I suddenly crying for no reason?
I am sleep-deprived. I am tired. I am adjusting. I am constantly counting how many children are in my field of vision. If not all 5 are accounted for, I go through my head where one (or two or more!) child(ren) is/are located.
Thoughts of failure and defeat enter my mind. I try to push them away. But they keep coming back. I just cry. Cry... then hopefully afterwards I will feel so much better. lighter.
That's the hope, at least.
Photo taken by hubs. Postpartum blues has not hit me yet. Just the tired face of a mama who went through an unmedicated birth.

fancy driver
// fancy flats //
dress, Old Navy, thrifted
watch, exact one
Burberry bowler bag
Bandolino flats
Besides being a mom, I am also a chauffeur.
I drop off and pick up.
We can spend quite some time in the car and unfortunately lunches and snacks happen in there too.
Every time I reach to the back, I feel like a jeepney driver.

dance mom
Top, Loft, mine is sold out -- but this one is cute
Flats, Jimmy's
Gucci soho shoulder bag
I love to dance. I started at a young age. I was only 3 or 4 years old and I was already part of the elementary school dance program. I also married a guy who loves to dance. It's a must (!)
It is not a big shock that I am a dance mom.

it's only weird if it does not work
I was singing praises for these mommy jeans -- and I still am. I gave in y'alls. These are my 1-up jeans. 1-up as in 1 size up. Call me impatient... call me shopaholic... but my other jeans do not fit me yet and I want to wear something other than my boyfriends jeans or skirts or leggings that have tons of "give".
You know the commercial: it's only weird if it does not work?
When I wore my Colts gear for the first two games, the men in blue LOST. So I wore this outfit for their 3rd game and voila! they won.
So hubs said: you won't wear jerseys anymore on game day?
me: only on home games... I will wear my jerseys on home games.
Another thing to spot is my new-to-me LV pochette. I just love good deals... I got this for 80% off! The lady bought a neverfull in Damier ebene and did not use the pochette.
GOOD FOR ME. I love the wristlet option and I like that it can attach to a D-ring inside my LV bags or workbag.
The Damier ebene is also more-toned down compared to the monogram which has LV splattered everywhere. At least with this one, only LV lovers would know the print.... or you could always stare really, really closely to see the print!I also like that the leather is dark brown instead of the vachetta which could patina.
{don't forget to use the code: DISISD for 5% off when buy on trendlee}
Another topic change:
My grandma is also leaving today. please send prayers for safe travels home to the Philippines. She has an hour to Detroit + 18 hours to Japan + another 3-4 hours to the Philippines. It is a 24 hour travel time to go halfway across the world.
I will surely miss her.
but she will miss Lucy the most!
translation: You're like a crazy person. You're talking to yourself.
I had to stop videotaping. I want to post a blooper video actually.
