I'm a stay at home mom to 2 wonderful boys! My son Ethan is 3yrs old, and my son Kaiden is 6 months, born August 19th, 2005. As any other stay at home mom knows, its a tough job!! And taking time to relax and write a blog entry and reflect on the day feels good!!

Update

I went to my appt and my Dr. said it sounded like post partum depression. I cried in his office. I don't know what it is about some people, they can just bring out the tears in me. He prescribed prozac. I still cant believe I'm on an antidepressant, but I need it. I'm thinking of keeping a private diary where I can write down all the things I'm feeling that I don't want to share with anyone else. I think that might help. I feel like since I've come out with the truth, that I should act differently, but I'm not going to. I'm going to act like I have been. I don't need to act depressed and sound depressed to be depressed. I don't know if that makes sense. I'm not the type of person to always talk about how I'm feeling blue, for one I think it makes the conversation awkward. I don't like attention focused on me. I'm being a little more open with hubby, but still not fully, its just to weird. Can't explain it. So I'm just going to keep a private diary just for me to read.

anyway, we got Kaiden a push walker yesterday, only $1.25. He has already walked around pushing it. A few feet at a time :)

Gotta go, crying baby.

I’m very proud of you! Just remember that Heather has to be happy before she can help anyone else (be sure to slap me with that one when I do the same thing in a few months). I have a slightly used baby for sale…interested? His only defect is that he crawls around fussing all day…but he’s cute! How did ballet go?

LOL heather, i was re-reading this, and the part where you said you aren't the type of person that doesn't talk about how you are feeling and don't like the focus on you. that is exactly what i was trying to explain to you about me. LOL maybe you should seek therapy :P LOL just kidding, as mom said you don't have to always talk about your feelings. doesn't mean that you should seek therapy because of it LOL.
